Can't tell if it's satire or not, so I'm vascilating between hilarious and terrifying. Hilarifying, if you will. Terrarious if you're adventurous.

[-] sanpedropeddler@sh.itjust.works 5 points 6 days ago

Dan Hentschel is a prolific satirist.

Thanks for clearing that up! Hilarious it is!

[-] Comment105@lemm.ee 2 points 5 days ago

Terrarious is the feeling Terraria bosses give me. They're so fucked up and so stupid looking, especially the hell wall boss.

Can anyone tell me what this

is, because it looks like it could be a phased plasma rifle in the 40-watt range.

[-] stoi@lemm.ee 6 points 5 days ago
[-] GraniteM@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago

Looks about right to me!

[-] Strocker89@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 5 days ago

100% correct. That's a keltec shotgun with double tubes so it can hold 15 plus rounds.

[-] DudeImMacGyver@sh.itjust.works 5 points 5 days ago

Keltec probably, their engineers are powered entirely by blow.

Looks like a lady with bad STDs was riding his face and racoon'd him

Real talk, you can go buy a gun today and you probably should (maybe not and maybe not today). It's twenty minutes. Then sign up for some how tos, probably at the place you bought it from and take a few classes. Shoot until you get a good feel for it, then plan to shoot every now and then or as often as you want.

Yes, it's a terrible industry run my terrible people. No you're not John Wick, but fascist need speed bumps, and the police don't care about you at best.

[-] VoteNixon2016@lemmy.blahaj.zone 26 points 6 days ago

The eternal internal conflict of buying a gun to oppose fascism and not buying a gun because of mental health 🙃

[-] ubergeek@lemmy.today 13 points 6 days ago

You have a couple of options:

First, get the gun, but before that, line up a "firing pin buddy" who can keep parts to make sure your firearms cannot fire. You give the person your firing pins when needed, or they feel they need to.

Or, don't get a gun, and git gud at other valuable skills. First aid, mutual aid networking, etc etc. Also, pepper gel is decent enough for self defense. Also, cane fighting skills work well, and a lot of self defense cases exist, for example.

[-] JayDee@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

A third option is to train with a gun buddy and buy one when you feel it is definitely needed. no major financial burden, and you get firearms training.

[-] ubergeek@lemmy.today 1 points 5 days ago

And another good option!

as someone who lives in canada this is surreal

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

Due to supply issues and customer feedback, CMP will no longer offer a free rifle case with every rifle purchase. Customers will receive one free rifle case per calendar year with their first purchase of an M1 Garand in each calendar year. Rifles not shipped in a rifle case, will be shipped in a custom (made for specifically for CMP) corrugated cardboard box with convoluted foam. Rifle cases will be eligible for purchase when quantity permits. This does not apply to pistol orders. All CMP 1911 pistols will be shipped in a pistol case.

How many people are buying multiples of these things that they had to put up this disclaimer?

[-] IMongoose@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Apparently there is a group of people who max out their orders every year (8 I believe) and either stockpile them or sell them in various ways.

[-] BeMoreCareful@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

I'd love one, but MAN are they expensive.

[-] IMongoose@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

If you look at how much they are on the second hand market they become much better deals. But yes, it is a large amount of money.

[-] Cypher@aussie.zone 2 points 5 days ago

If you’re encouraging responsible ownership the very first step is secure storage.

A gun safe and a separate ammo safe.

That is the absolute first step to ensuring there are no accidental discharges. Most people are shot with their own gun, in their own home, by themselves or a family member.

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Yep! I'm planning on purchasing a firearm in the next year. But I'm moving first so rather than move safes and firearms across state lines I'm waiting. Because there's little in life that's dumber than leaving around an expensive weapon that's serial number is tied to your name
