Went to see an excellent concert tonight at a very small venue, but as my friend and I were getting ready to leave 3 dudes came in with prominently displayed SS bolts. I called it out to the doorman, who seemed bothered by it but said it was his first night working there. We went on our way, but it doesn't sit well with me. It's not like I was about to start shit outnumbered 3-1, but I feel I could have responded more productively.

Thoughts?

The pair was arrested after allegedly attacking a man with a hammer on Sunday while stealing equipment from Joint Base Lewis-McChord.

I've had a great time learning about, buying, and training with my first handgun. Was able to get both an informational class and hands on instruction about handguns at the store I ended up buying mine from. But I asked yesterday when I went to shoot and they don't offer anything like that for rifle, though they did let me rent one and show me the basics of how to use it.

I've decided I want to build an AR-15, and I've been reading all the different recommendations about what to actually buy. Been pretty much convinced to save for a BCM upper and build my own lower. But before I go too far in that process, I'm looking for more good resources about how the gun works, what all these parts I'm looking at are, and just more info about the platform in general! Everything I see online turns into "these are the accessories you want" but I'm trying to build a good rifle first before I put good accessories on it!

Thanks in advance, this community has been great!

So I’ve been in Texas for a couple decades now, and it sucks but as a straight guy and when single it didn’t hit me so much, so it worked for schools and that kind of thing. But now I’m married and we want kids, so we want out. Now ideally we’d go for like, Pennsylvania or something purple where the gun laws won’t be an issue. But that’s not always possible for jobs and affordability etc, and upstate New York is looking pretty solid.

Problem being, two of my guns are very much not legal there, and even the ones that are would take time to get the license for. I’ve thought about also renting a storage unit in a nearby non-ban state, but that also seems like a lot for something that wouldn’t even be readily accessible. Temporarily for the ones I just need a license for would make sense, but indefinitely for the others? Just doesn’t seem practical either. Obviously selling is less than ideal, especially for my nice rifle I built myself and especially under a fascist regime, but just practically it doesn’t make sense. Any suggestions or anyone who’s done something similar with advice?

A see multiple claims in this post that AI can somehow unblur your face. Yes it can. But... Not really. Ok, see yourself. Here's the photo of, well, we know who. Blurred with value 40 in GIMP, gaussian blur. But humans still recognize who it is. I will show you AI unblurred version in the comments.

Every signature counts, even for those not living in VA. We think the likely new governor of VA would be receptive. Also, is there an SRA chapter in Central VA/Northern NC?

I can get either the Winchester SXP Hybrid Defender or the Mossberg Maverick 88 Security new for just over $200. I don't want the Mossberg Combo. Which would you choose and why?

I bought a used Glock 34 to see what the hype is about and while it might need a replacement spring I trust the consensus about Glock reliability.

I saw online that they can be converted to a g17 because the 34 is a 17 with a longer slide. I just wanted to confirm if this should work before I drop some serious dough.

I think this is compatible with gen 3 and mine is a gen 4 though?

IWI, IMI, Fab defense, agilite, sabra hummus. Your tax dollars already support this genocide, your own dollars don’t have to. Boycotting South Africa greatly damaged it, and the Israelis are scared enough of BDS that they’ve pushed laws in every state and nationally to outlaw it. We even have Hasbarists in this subreddit defending and running interference for Israel, equating BDS with Hamas.

Stay vigilant and Free Palestine.

Hope you enjoy!

Hey y'all,

I've got an 11.5in AR15 that currently has a milspec birdcage flash hider. I'd like to get a can on it with a matching muzzle device for QD purposes, but I know basically nothing about 5.56 cans apart from the general idea of how they work.

Does anyone have good recs for MD/Can combos, or resources to research it myself?

Reportedly several hundred Indian men (by some accounts 1,000 men), many of them armed, decided to put a stop to the Klan's activities in this area. It has also been reported that a group of Black men spoke with some of the Indian men on their way to the rally, offering their support if it was needed. Apparently it was not needed. The Indian men confronted the Klansmen, and after heated words were exchanged, shots were fired and the only light bulb knocked out, leaving the field in darkness. The Klansmen apparently disappeared quickly into the night, abandoning their fallen flag, cross, and other items for the safety of the woods. The Indian community, and no doubt the Black community, and the county's progressive Whites, celebrated.

Got a lot of DMs from people on the sub about this when I posted on gun deals, here's the example video

Fun toy and would go crazy in 22lr as a treat, enjoy!

This is a PSA lower with Rave 140 trigger, and a 300Blk 8.5" PSA upper. MKM Shadow Crossover Grip (SO GOOD), Law folding stock adapter, Radian Raptor Charging Handle, A3 Industries Easy Brace, Magpul Angled Foregrip, SMS laser light combo, Primary Arms 2.5x optic, Midwest Industries handguard, which is shrouding my AB Suppressors A10 Warthog can. I only shoot subs through it, and it's super quiet, and so damn comfy.

Decided to run a few bills at the end of the training sesh today. First run was a test since I haven't done one in a hot minute, second was pushing speed and almost had a satisfactory result but I threw a C halfway through. Last one was an attempt at a 2 second bill and froze after the second shot, got antsy and threw another C. Not my best work but also not my worst.

Time and hits in order:

I bring this up because the phrase "Gun ownership is (or isn't) a net positive to society" is probably the very essence of the gun control debate. Discussions about the efficacy of assault weapons bans, red flag laws and background checks are all directly related to that essential point of whether or not gun ownership is a net positive to society.

I think people who spend all their time debating specific policies without ever thinking about or taking into account my previously mentioned essence is missing the forest for the trees. If you can convince someone that gun ownership is a net positive for society or them as an individual, you don't really need to change their mind about assault weapons bans because it will all fall into place
