I should probably get a gun or something.. at least take one down with me when they kick my door in.

I was dragging my feet on it but I'm 100% purchasing more than one after this event. If the brownshirts come knocking, I refuse to leave this planet with a K/D ratio below 1.

ok you got me with the power of a solid deal. i looked up reviews and people say it's a pretty solid gun, and that seems straight up dirt cheap. i guess ill be finding the time to get out to a range sometime soon lmao

[-] peeonyou@hexbear.net 2 points 4 months ago

whoa.. that seems cheap? I thought the gun alone would be like $1k

[-] Wakmrow@hexbear.net 2 points 4 months ago

The gun itself if you buy the frame and the slide can be got for around 200. You will need to pay an FFL and background check fee. That should be around $50. Magazines for Glocks (which a PSA dagger can take) are easily found.

If you're on a budget, get yourself a Hi-Point. From what I've heard they're pretty good for the money, and might be my first pistol for myself once I get to getting a gun license.

you know ive been considering getting a gun for a while, for normal purposes with no intention to ever shoot anyone. but now i feel like i shouldn't get one for a while, considering my recent comments regarding this incident combined with a firearm purchase would look REALLY bad to any bad-faith observers lmao

Better to have one than not. More importantly reach out to your local orgs and make some friends.
