I've been wondering how bad things will get. The wife just went to two grocery stores here in a major city in the South and all the pasta, soup, and toilet paper are gone. People are on edge and schools will be closed. When the schools are closed the kids ("youths") have nothing to do. Wondering if things will get ugly after a couple of weeks of schools closed, jobs uncertain, and supplies low.
Wondering if it's time to go to Bass Pro and buy a pistol or rifle. I don't come from a gun-owning family (and my wife would freak out), but I'm leaning towards buying one and keeping it hidden.
you should have at least a pistol already anyway... .40 Cal or .45 if you really want to do some damage
Thomas Lewis
you should have got a gun months ago so you'd have time to practice.
Ian Morris
Cool, thanks. I've only fired guns when in Scouts and when I dated a girl whose dad was in the navy. Do you recommend taking a class a range?
Easton Baker
tell your wife to toughen the fuck up as well. there's nothing scary about wanting to protect your family. where I live we get hurricanes and there's always looting after (by niggers) Every year there's a few stories about looters who got shot and killed thinking the homeowners evacuated
Juan Adams
better than never user, you never know what will happen in the future
Christopher James
you don't need a class. a couple hours familiarizing yourself with your girl should be enough
Daniel Ross
The time to buy was two weeks ago
Dominic Williams
*gun not girl
Parker Clark
>"muh .45/.40" meme Shut the fuck up, fud.
Levi Gomez
yes, buy a gun but tell your wife you pussy whipped faggot
Get a Mossberg 590 and load it with some 00 Buckshot.
Jordan Morgan
>filthy liberals suddenly start buying guns
Evan Watson
Any fellow leafs out there who can get me a gun? I will pay the full cost.
Daniel Scott
lol what's your point retard? there are more than one caliber of bullets in the world. a 9mm doesn't have the stopping power of the other two and a .50 Cal is way more than someone needs for self defense
Michael Brown
You’re a fucking tard. 9mm and 45acp are both great calibers, and will get the job done. 40 S&W is a meme caliber that kicks like a mule, is expensive, and has less capacity than a 9 and less power than a 45. Literally the worst of both.
Jordan Butler
eat shit nigger
Easton Ramirez
I literally cannot fathom why anybody wouldn't own at least a handgun or shotgun for home defense.
I'm not saying keep it loaded and chambered under your pillow. But if shit really hits the fan, you'll be thankful you have access to one. A couple hundred bucks for a Glock 19 and some hollow points is cheap insurance, ESPECIALLY if you live in a state where tons of people are carrying.
Most looters are extremely conflict avoidant and will scram at a warning shot or even just showing it.
Jaxon Diaz
The boat is shipping water. And you, Rebel user, you want to know if it's time to learn how to swim? Yes. It's time. Get a Glock 19 or 17 and a good 12 gauge shotgun. And they need to be fed. The Glock is idiot-proof, except it doesn't have a safety.
Cooper Ross
I get that, but I have a 9mm that I got a really good deal on and couldn't pass up, however I would worry about it's stopping power under dire circumstances
Sebastian Carter
Nigger, you’re American. You should already have multiple guns, and you should have been getting in as much range time as possible. What’s the matter with you?
9mm HP will blow whatever brains you have right out the back of your head, dumbfuck. Even a body shot with HP will finish a full-grown man. Do you even self-defense, bro?
Jayden Murphy
you really need to practice so you wont hurt your family or yourself by mistake. gun owners should go to the range every month but if you cant do that at least 4 or 5 times a year. my groupings get bad if i take too much time off. at least get you an itarget pro so you can practice dry firing in your house. not perfect but helps and its fun.
Hunter Bennett
The time to buy a gun was last week, mate.
Brody Collins
this isn't /k/ faggot. and the 2nd is clear, you're supposed to be armed to sustain your own liberty.
nigga just get hollow point for the 9mm if your concerned about fucking up someone.
Henry Morgan
>He doesn't already have one Jesus I'm a fucking leaf and I got a few. Git gud faggot
Samuel Jenkins
DO IT PEDO
Benjamin Thomas
>just now considering buying a gun
It’s already over if you aren’t stockpiled
Brayden Brown

Easton Hernandez
Friendly reminder if u don’t own a gun during a boogaloo then your shit technically belongs to me.
Xavier Butler
ridiculous assumption OP, I have a feeling soon they will start denying background checks for purchases en masse to prevent those who don't have firearms from getting them, because we know what happens when idiots like you who weren't prepared get desperate. You try to loot someone for a case of water and lose your head in their makeshift doorway guillotine like a retard because you couldn't check your surroundings properly.
glhf!
Tyler Sullivan
>going to jail for a straw purchase for some rando nigger
It's always time. Buy at least 3. Don't forget cleaner, oil, eye and ear pro and the like. Practice everyday and binge YouTube, forums and books. The ubiquity and modularity of the AR15 is probably the best choice for a rifle. Learn how to assemble one, you're going to need to know anyway, and build them yourself. Again binge whats on the internet and books. Handguns are really about what you can shoot the best. Try before you buy.
>keeping it hidden Grow a pair. Suppressive fire isn't useful if it isn't accurate and no one pushes ahead. She's gotta know this shit too. You could get rekt and she'd be on her own.
I got into shooting about 6 months ago. Got my concealed carry permit, joined a gun club to go shoot at. 6 months later ive INVESTED $2500 into this. I have a firearm for every situation.
Practice is what matters. You can buy whatever you want, just practice. I go once every other week. I've gotten significantly better. This could be you 6 months from now. Protect your family and those that you love.
Nicholas Parker
Hey, I appreciate it. I'm thinking a rifle, maybe an AR-15 (or Biden's AR-14).
David Lee
Get a shotgun.
Isaiah Russell
Check out palmetto state armory. I built mine for roughly $300-400.
You can buy a complete upper for 200-300 and a complete lower for 150'ish.
Or you can save an extra 50-100 if you buy all the parts separate or in a "kit" and assemble yourself.
I assembled mine with a few solid youtube vids. You will need a punch set, a hammer, and an "armorer tool"
Check with your local laws, you might be able to purchase an 80% polymer lower receiver (the only serialized part) online and have everything shipped directly to you.
An 80% lower receiver (like polymer80 dot com) will require the use of a good dremel and a steady hand in order to be usable. This is 100% legal in my state.
Benjamin Sullivan
Hello Mr RCMP
Justin Butler
>boss said he'd fire me if my purchase history showed I bought a gun
When is the last time you used your gun for your liberty?
Ayden Rodriguez
590 has better engineering and comes in different configurations it's pretty much an improved 500
Eli Long
Yes, but to all these morons telling you to buy a handgun probably forgot that you have to apply for a handgun permit to even purchase one, and you also have to apply for a CCW permit if you want to conceal it on your person. If you haven't done this already it may be too late.
If you can get a handgun permit quickly then go for it, but otherwise then there's nothing wrong with settling for a rifle or a shotgun for home defense.
Sebastian Gutierrez
Buy one NOW don't fucking wait. Shoulda bought one years ago faggot.
Jayden Lopez
Imagine being a white man and not already owning multiple guns.
Thomas Young
>caring about permits when SHTF
Asher White
>imply he lives in a state that requires a handgun permit or a FOID or whatever
Jacob Hernandez
Should've gotten a gun years ago.
Jose Adams
Explain yourself. How does your boss monitor your purchases? Just buy one with cash.
Ian Butler
Dont listen to this guy. The Glock 19 is the de facto SHTF pistol
Levi Morgan
Oh, and another thing. Take your wife to the range.
She doesn't need to be as trained as you do, but she (and anyone in your household over the age of 12) should have full understanding of firearm operation and safety.
Good luck buying a handgun without a permit if you live in a state that requires one. Don't be a nigger and buy guns illegally.
True I forget its only 15 states + D.C. that require a purchase permit for handguns.
Isaiah Foster
Sounds like you live in Soviet Russia.
Kevin White
Good point. Was looking at a rifle anyway.
Charles Lopez
Just my thoughts, do not buy one. You and your family do not come from this kind of background. So stay away, they are not safe. A simple virus now topped off with a potentially far worse event you would forever regret.
Cameron Lopez
>A couple hundred bucks for a Glock 19 and some hollow points Man of culture
Dylan Wood
The time to buy a gun is like the time to plant a tree. The best time is twenty years ago. The next best time is today.
Jason Fisher
>itarget pro so you can practice dry firing in your house. What is this sorcery?
Charles Jackson
Sexy as fuck. I should grab a 92FS I saw one for $450 yesterday
Nolan Lee
I agree with this, unless you take training seriously. I had never shot a gun before 2019. I've now shot roughly 6k rounds.
If you buy a gun, and put it in your closet and never look at it again- you are not being responsible, and that gun is more of a risk than anything.
Owen Ramirez
Fpbp 9mm shills are faggots.
Colton Jenkins
S&W M&P Sport or the Ruger AR556 are two good basic bitch ARs, generally in the $500-$600 range if you're looking to buy one. S&W shield is an insanely popular concealed carry pistol and the older model is about $300 bucks.
Then take your dumb cunt of a wife shooting.
Isaac Long
AR for long range/hunting (if needed), shotgun for riot control/home defense/also hunting, handgun for home defense and close range conflicts.
Nolan Howard
Huh? What purchase history you faggot?
Brody Jones
There are literally so many guns in america that if you ever need one your neighbor will let use use one. Hell if shit gets real you can just pick one up off the ground. Just one of the benefits of a well armed society, a literal army of citizens can be raised at ant time for any pretense. God i love america.
Dominic Campbell
You shot 6k rounds in one year?
Jacob Sanders
9s are my choice. Get some Hornady HP ammunition, it is fucking gnarly stuff. If you can't, you could feed it fmj on the cheap. 500 rounds for under 100 bucks. Brass as well. Don't buy tula or bullshit ammo though. Get brass to avoid the mess. They will know they were hit, most importantly. Just put it in the chest cavity.
Jacob Nelson
6k in 6 months to be exact. 500 per week, twice a month
Josiah Lee
That sounds like terrible advice. I'm not sharing my arsenal.
