welp, that tears it. time to buy my first gun, while I still can. I’m not a big fan of guns but fuck if I’m going to let myself and my community be disarmed by the fascists. I’m not going quietly if they send us to the camps.
If you do and have not used one before please get training in the proper operation of it. Even if its from a book. Practice until you are comfortable with it. Otherwise you may end up shooting yourself or someone you care about by accident. You should know how it works and how to break down and clean it yourself.
Good. I started learning when I was six. I had to of course relearn many of the things I was taught as a child. I used to own nearly thirty firearms. No reason really. I just enjoyed shooting them. At targets. I didn’t like to hunt. Over time I sold them all down to two. One is the first firearm I every bought myself. The other is the first gun my dad ever gave me. It jammed and the feed tube was maligned and he couldn’t fix it. He bought another and gave the bad one to me. I broke it down when my parents were not around and fixed it. I haven’t fired more than a dozen rounds in the last fifteen years. I really hope I don’t have to fire one ever again.
Building one yourself can be another great option. I’m slowly building my first AR this way. There are many parts manufacturers out there who are friendly to the left, or at least politically neutral, more every day.
The build process will get you VERY familiar with how your firearm and each part of it functions, there is a build for every budget and (at least with the AR platform) you can customize it to your heart’s content.
Plus it’s just a lot of fun to see it come together, it teaches self-sufficiency and you end up with a basic kit of tools that can come in handy in the future. IMO it is very worth the time and effort as opposed to just buying something already built off the shelf.

oh absolutely. I’ll take a full gun safety class and practice target shooting at the range.

I hate to break it to you, but that’s exactly what they want.
They want more people to buy guns, because that’s more power for those in the industry.
The money from these sales will go towards getting republicans elected.
Only buy used guns.
