Firearm/Weapons Thread

Meanwhile we still can’t even have Glock gen 4 or 5 here.

You either need to flee or overthrow the Commiefornia state government, then.

@Goku Black  
Flee was the original plan.

It took me awhile to get used to them, but I like DA/SA hammer fired handguns with decockers.

@Lizard.30  
I need to use more revolvers at some point, I only own two handguns currently.

@MagpulDynamicPie  
At some point, sure, but it’s better to be highly proficient with just a couple of handguns than to be average with a whole arsenal anyway.

@Anonymous #AF58  
That’s true too. I’ve always been more interested in rifles though as well as an added factor.

Working on Christmas presents.
 

 
The spear’s about an inch longer than I wanted, but I found out I didn’t have a long enough drill bit.
 
I didn’t want to waste my time trying to cut another inch off the tent stake with a hacksaw after I had already cut and sharpened it. So it’s just really long. I kinda like it this way now once I got used to it. Lol.
 
All the spikes are longer on this one, but the wood is cut an inch and a half shorter, to maintain agility and ease of use. I’ve never had so much fun having someone throw plates at me.
 

@Anonymous #AF58  
Those are Christmas gifts? Lol I actually wouldn’t mind getting something like that for Christmas

@MagpulDynamicPie  
Yeah, gave that one to a friend after it was finished and have a couple more I’m holding onto for safe keeping.

Got one of these ordered today. The SAS Folding Recon Survival Bow :D
 

 
Gonna take it out to the local archery range and get out there and practice as soon as it comes in.
 
On Sale now.  
(Although, I don’t know how long it’s been “on sale” for. It’s been “limited edition” for 3 years since they ended up selling well and people liked it.)
 
I like deployability, durability, packability, and overall practicality, so I bought what I believe is the best long-term survival bow for the money. You have a responsibility to both the animal and yourself to get a kill shot, so I’m gonna sink enough time and money into this hobby that I’ll be skilled enough to do be accurate with this bow. Comes in 40, 45, 50, and 55 lb. draw weights. I’ll be starting with the 40 lb. limbs and ordering 50s once I’ve gotten good at 40.
 
They also make the tactical version of this bow, which is 3 inches shorter when packed at the sacrifice of slightly clunkier deployment, and they also make a more ergonomic, highly-accurate, modernized model called the Atmos. (At a premium.)

i made a rubber band gun that is so powerful it can punch through plastic, dunno how to upload a video though so take my word for it, i still have it in my room. i made it from metal pipes, lego, and parts from nerf blasters and it works really well and looks really good :)

EDIT: it uses size 109 rubber bands with plastic spacers, it’s not as powerful at range but point blank it could actually bruise you, you can even hear the rubber band fly through the air and the rubber band gun actually recoiling from the rubber band

SECOND EDIT: nevermind about the photo i’m a bit scared ;-;

i linked an imgur photo but i just got a thing where it needs mod approval, what’d i do wrong?
EDIT: nevermind about me posting a photo i’m a bit scared now

@DELTA35
Oh! You did absolutely nothing wrong. I wondered why I kept needing approval for images when I was new here too. After a while, I didn’t need that anymore, so I’m assuming the mods just want to make sure people aren’t spammers before they give instant approval. You can post your image, it’ll take some hours to show up but eventually it will. Nothing to be scared of :3 I had completely forgotten that was the case when I joined this site, haha.

@StrangeKittenOfTheFabulousKilljoys
ahhhhh okay

So, indeed. This is how it is. I told you all, Whatsername has been deeply hurt by people. So here we are, communicating while we work through things. Here’s how the anger issues are. They make sense. They are valid.

I think I’m also pretty valid to have gotten scared as fuck. Look at how long those nails are, and what is she gonna do with that? Kill someone? It’s a Christmas present, why would you give someone that for Christmas. How fucked up do you have to be to make that? The knife with the angry rant on Facebook. Being on here with your whip and shit like, “It’s gonna hurt so good!”

Gee almost like pretty much every human is physically bigger than me, and I was overpowered by one once. I just wanted to cuddle. So yeah, kind of a massive fear here. Well, there was. A question I spent a ton of time asking and stressing over, “Is Whatsername a safe person to be around or some psycho that is going to violently kill me?”

Obviously, I have realized you are a safe person. It just took a while to know that for certain.

We are using the weapon I built that got him off of me. I didn’t have anything on me, literally naked. So what weapon could I have used that scared him and made him go away?

I hadn’t used it like that again until I was in the hospital. Absolutely SURROUNDED by men bigger than myself, holding me down against the hospital bed, COMPLETELY OVERPOWERING ME, I didn’t know what else to do but fire my weapon on all cylinders. What weapon can you have on you in a hospital? What weapon makes people back off that is literally, physically always with me?

🗣️ KILLJOYS MAKE SOME NOISE!

I made so much noise, I ended up using all my ammo and it took like a day or so to recover it. And they would always back off. They backed off multiple times, until I got a shot to the thigh that I was unable to stop. Still have the scar.

So, if you do ever scare me too much, I have a weapon I can use that won’t physically harm you. And it’s a sign you’ll always back off and respect me >^_^< It’s also hella useful if you ever need help, like if we were hanging out together irl and someone went to attack you, well good fucking luck when I am literally the loudest possible motherfucker. I don’t think you ever heard how loud I can get, because I’m not just going to explode on someone I’m trying to care for unprovoked.

As if I’m the only one of us who has ever been made to feel so helplessly small. But I raised a weapon against it.

Also, goddamn. Your posts on here are from like 3 years ago. That’s such a long time to still be working through this. Poor goober 🫂

I’m a good person to work with. I’m pretty good at finding ways of expressing anger in healthy ways. And who knows, maybe someday as long as we can ensure my safety, we can smash shit up together or something >^_^<

Helps when a song manifests to help contextualize things, too :3

Also it’s awesome how you were making things and talking a ton about your interests. That’s something I’ve always wanted. I wanna hear about you, dammit :P
