And yet many liberals refuse to arm and train. How much stochastic terrorism will it take?! Said a couple of days ago, wait till they really settle in, get comfy, realize what they can get away with. I'm not proposing anyone take to the streets, but FFS defend your home and loved ones.
And now some ass will come along and call me "fake brave" or decry how unrealistic defending oneself is in the face of cops and vigilantes. Brave I ain't, and I'm well aware of the odds if they get the drop.
Pro tip: They're going to kill you anyway. I'd rather die with my boots on thank you very much.
Anyway, been fiddling with my $100 20-gauge the last couple of nights. Went hiking all through the woods and roads with it yesterday. Total champ! (I got lots of fancy guns. You don't need fancy.)
Go .308 or go home. Just sayin'
John Browning found perfection in 1911
I don't know if anything came of this or not, but food for thought: a few years back, I heard there were some guys working on 3d printing 9mm rounds for handloading.
Used to be able to buy once fired brass from etsy. Hi tek coated projectiles are fairly cheap, or get some extra equipment and cast your own from wheel weights. Powder and primers are a bit harder to roll your own, though I've heard about people using match heads to reload primers; they should really only be used as a last resort.
Funny thing is that the Democrat's anti-gun rethoric made it harder for leaf-leaning people to get guns. In my democratic-controlled city, you need 2 people to essentially act as a character witness to recommend you in order for you to obtain a concealed carry permit, and none of those people can be a family member. I think open carry needs a permit too, but even if not, you wouldn't want to open carry in a big city, it attracts attention.
You can techically own guns and keep it at home, but to even transport it home, you need to put the weapon unloaded and ammunition in separate containers. Keeping it at home is not really useful if a maga mob is surrounding you in public.
Democrats need to stop being stupid and drop the anti-gun rhetoric. It loses support amonst single issue voters, and also puts unnecessary barriers for law abiding citizens to obtain firearms.
Its so ironic, in a civil war, the magots gets easy access to ar15s to mow us down, while left-leaning people struggle to get guns.
Ironically I still think those are good requirements
Doesn't CA ban high capacity mags? Well republican states has them in walmarts. How do you like them apples?
By comparison in my very red state you don't need a permit to carry. Open or concealed. There's just an age limit. We still offer concealed carry permits, but that's only because our permits are also valid in some other states that require a permit to carry.
