Essential The Official Coli Gun Owners Thread

[Son Goku]

Bruh didn't you say you worked in the medical field? How could you possibly need a gun? My bad if I'm mixing you up with someone else. And LMAO at you quoting me in a gun hobbyist thread where you know I'd get merked for my opinion. I get the appeal. The power fantasy of holding a gun. I've been to the range a few times and it's probably why I also enjoy FPSs. But why do civilians need to own one? The data shows the amount of fatalities that result from them. You talking about protection but I don't understand why brehs can't just get ADT or some shyt.

I worked in the medical field in the military, among other jobs. When I was deployed they'd have us arm up as necessary even as medics. Here, in the United States, nobody using weapons to commit crimes gives a fukk if you're a medic or not. You're not walking around with a Red Cross on hoping people won't target you.


I quoted you in this thread versus the other one because @Morethan1 was right, a thread about protests stemming from a classroom of kids getting killed by guns isn't the place to discuss the merits owning guns. Your opinion is yours; it getting "merked" is some internet shyt. Nobody gives a fukk about your daps, posts, or rep once you log off this site.


"Power fantasy of holding a gun"? Do you know how crazy you sound? Maybe I'm outta touch being a veteran and all, but that shyt doesn't even trip real gun brehs out. You don't get a "power fantasy" of driving a car or holding a knife to chop up dinner; a gun is no different in that it's destructive potential is still based on user choice and user error.


Civilians don't need to own one. The Second Amendment allows eligible citizens to own one if they choose to. It's just like voting, nobody says you need to or have to do it or even makes you do it. The fact that some folks don't want you to do it should at the very least have you asking why.

The reasons someone might choose to are quite simple, besides the hunting and sporting/hobby aspects of shooting: just because you don't own a weapon doesn't mean other people won't choose to as well, or that they won't use their weapons against you.


If somebody busts into my crib right now, they're catching hot lead, it's not even up for debate. If it's cops doing a no-knock, I'm prolly catching lead back and that's a wrap for me. If it's a scammer/robber/opp/whatever, at least I gave myself a chance of walking away from that confrontation. A situation where a gun is pointed at you by another civilian is not the time to start asking why folks choose to own guns. The only thing you can do is try to run away, try to engage, or stand in place and get laid down.


And lastly, an alarm system is cool and I'd encourage folks to have one too. But it's just part of the solution, it's not the whole answer. A guard dog or watch dog are in the same boat, as is a gun. If somebody armed with a gun (or even a knife) runs up in your spot, an alarm may not make them leave. Then what? You just gonna wait for ADT to dispatch cops to your crib and hope them folks don't kill you first before twelve comes? You gotta panic room you can always hop in if shyt pops off?



Legit not sure if you're trolling or tryna push an agenda, but the questions you asked ain't even that deep.

I know who my enemy is. It ain't other black folks. Last thing I think about is ever having to shoot someone black. I'm cordial with white folks but they have been conditioned to see me as an enemy to their freedom and liberty and if it comes down to it they will try to kill me. I view them the exact same way. People love to big up black on black crime, but I know who my enemy is. The white man has always been armed against us and it used to be illegal for us to be armed. Even if that day never comes it's best to be armed. Fail to plan, plan to fail. I don't know how others refuse to see it when it's directly in their faces. But they'd rather pray, March, sing, shout, and forgive. Not me.

Agreed, except I don't give anyone, even other black folks, passes when it comes to my safety or even my property. Anyone runs up I'm doing my best to see they're done up, I don't care if they're as white as snow or as black as Charlie Murphy (RIP).

Fortunately it's mostly cacs round here, so if I have to send them to the Shadow Realm, fukk it.

By 'merked' I meant there's less chance of having a fair discussion in a thread where it's understood everyone is pro-gun. I'm not worried about some damn internet "cred" but I'd rather my time not be wasted. Yall should be able to talk shop in here without someone encroaching on your space. If you were seriously interested in discussion you wouldn't have quoted me in the Gun Owner's OT .

I will say yall seem like reasonable folks aside from you insinuating I'm a c00n/cac. Far from it. What I am is a father receiving a daily recording from my kid's school about increased security measures. I'm also a cat who lost a close childhood friend to gun violence last year - there's a thread here about it: (Beyonce's cousin got murked by a demon looking woman). So the question I raised to @Morethan1 in the other thread wasn't some thought exercise or attempt to change his mind. It just genuinely baffles me in light of the recent massacres people want more guns. We're obviously not going to agree but there's no harm in seeking understanding.

Seems silly to me but okay. We wasn't finna discuss it in that other thread and this seemed like a logical thread, since, you know, it's about gun ownership.


As far as I'm concerned, this isn't really a "discussion" like that: you're not actually gonna change my stance and I'm not actually trying to change yours, we're just talking.

Pretty sure nobody in here is bothered by what you're posting either, but I could be wrong.

I say and think cac/c00n shyt sometimes too, but again, if you don't own, you won't ever fully get it. Video @Rollie Forbes posted of brehette explaining shyt sums up my thoughts perfectly.

Mom Dukes prolly thought she was enabling me for my future - she hindered it. It is quite possible that her intolerance for guns made me like them even more; I'm weird that way, I don't usually like the same things as the rest of the family.

As for him owning a gun with all this shyt going on, I can't speak for @Morethan1*. Massacres don't make me look at my guns, owning guns, or guns in general any differently. Pretty sure if I said "no more guns" I'd have to get a different job. Guns are simply a tool at work that we use, along with any of the other equipment. Shooting them is enjoyable but it has nothing to do with a power fantasy or being some kind of ace "I win" card - because they're not.


People using guns to commit mass murders makes me want to up my gun proficiency in case I ever need to use one against a civilian. That's it, it's no deeper than that. Prevailing coli arguments say that the "good guy with a gun" is just a fantasy, but on the off chance that that opportunity is there, I'd want to be prepared to take it. I could get mowed with my carry on me any day, but at least if I have it there's a chance I could do something about it. All these unarmed folks (sheep) are literally at the mercy of wolves.

I would say I wouldn't get an AR as my first purchase, simply because I think they have less utility. ARs can be great for home offense, but unless you're sleeping with it over your headboard like Bin Laden, it might not be as readily accessible as a handgun. It also can't be concealed carried. Just my 0.02.

Bruh this isn't simply a thread about 'gun ownership'. It's a tacit endorsement and celebration of it. And that's fine lol. Like I said before you'll never see me tell another black man to disarm while the rest of the country holds on tightly to their shyt. I am well informed on the legislative legacy and if this has to be a race to the bottom then so be it. I stand with you in that regard. Before you quoted me I hadn't ever come in here sharing my opinions. My stance is that this is a uniquely American problem that also appears to disproportionately (surprise, surprise ) harm black people. The data shows that. So while you're throwing out "c00n" and "cac" for brothers wanting stricter gun control I'd rebut the prevalence of guns hurts us more. These are the stats. I welcome talking about it with you but not in a thread where I'm clearly outnumbered.

 

[Son Goku]

You keep claiming you're being (or will be) attacked ITT. I haven't seen it, but feel free move this convo to another thread of your choosing.

All Imma say to that:

• is criminals don't care about "gun control" or legislation, that's why they're criminals.

• A lot of firearm legislation doesn't even rest with the federal government, it rests with or within the individual states. shyt that would get me locked up in NYC I can walk around with on my hip in Alabama.

• Motherfukkers lie on background checks, psych evals, forge documents, all that. Folks import illegal shyt all the time. 3D printers allow people with a flash drive to make and modify parts or whole-ass guns. So what exactly do you mean by "gun control" as you would see it implemented?

 

[Stir Fry]

Got bored and decided to change the handguard of my blackout pistol from black to fde. Went with alumahyde ii for the paint. It’s a no bake media, but being the impatient tinkerer that i am, i built a heated curing box for it to speed up the process. If you elect to air dry it, the cure time is about one week, with full hardening happening at two weeks. fukk that lol. Glad i didnt use my oven because the fumes are pretty bad despite what i read about it online. Been using a small camp stove keeping it at 200f for these last five hours, but now that it’s bedtime, i brought it inside and got a space heater aimed at the can to evaporate the remaining chemicals from it @ 90f. Looks great from what I’m seeing so far. The enamel should be nice and hard and be more than ready to be put back together by the time i wake up tomorrow morning…

Spoiler

First I hit the guard all over with 220 followed by 400 grit sanding pads.

Degreased with mineral spirits and then doused with acetone to get rid of any remaining surface residues. Used the heat gun to dry out any remaining hidden wet spots. It's a good idea to heat up the inside too, just to ensure thoroughness. After degreasing, use gloves when handling the item, because oils from your skin can affect how the paint sticks to it.

Kept the spray can in a mixing bowl full of hot water and the threw the cap in a small container of acetone in between coats to keep everything fresh and flowing nicely. Used the heat gun to keep the handguard warm between them as well. Cold paint and cold surfaces are a big reason for drips happening. Also, having the metal warm during the process keeps the pores open and aids in adhesion.

This paint is thick and very easy to work with. I usually fukk up somewhere or another but not this time fortunately lol. Came out flawless as far as i can tell so far. 5 stars for ease of use

(Foiled the bottom to avoid a hotspot and for more even heat distribution)

 

[Stir Fry]

Super happy with the way it turned out. Finish feels durable af too

 

[djthegreat88]

Bought my first gun
Sig Sauer P320 X Full size
Probably the gun i was most accurate with at range.

Want to get a red dot for it. Its optic ready. But is that something I should get a gunsmith to help me install?

To your 1st bullet point, Id argue that this point only applies to the robbers, home intruders, etc... that are committing criminal activities as a way to survive. Most of these school shooters weren’t criminals before the mass shooting. There's a possibility that these shooters would have never aquired these weapons if they had to commit a criminal act just to gain possession.

As far as the 3rd point, again how many of these mass shooters are using 3d printed guns, importing weapons, forging docs, etc...? At this point, they don't have to do any of these things and I'm not sure if there is enough evidence to suggest they would go through these lengths to carry out these acts.

 

[Stir Fry]

I feel like the story we often hear about these shootings is that the perpetrator either took it from their parents or bought it within a short time period of committing the act. Can't recall any instances of actual enthusiasts doing these things. I imagine they have a different respect for the tool rather than these spur of the moment fakkits. Not saying enthusiasts don't have their own mental deficits and reasons for owning either though lol

european mass shooters have been using 3d printed or otherwise improvised firearms for years. thankfully most of them are no skill retards, one cac tried to attack a synagogue and got owned by a locked door (despite having an IED lmao) so he shot some random passers by who complained about the noise. middle eastern and south asian fighters have been cranking them out too but those are more liberator-style guns used for assassinating security forces instead of going on a killing spree.

great gun choice. there's no way to fukk the install up unless you apply the strength of an ox and even then it'll only become a problem when you go to remove the dot.

but if ur really worried about it use an inch-pound torque wrench and purple or blue loctite

I agree shootings will still happen. Some of these weirdos are very determined. The goal should be to minimize mass shootings will still allowing law abiding, sane, individuals to own guns.
