Discuss firearms, politics, 2nd amendment news. We value freedom of speech as much as we do the right to keep and bear arms.

Also, this comm will make Lemmy really mad. LMAO

The ATF and the federal government still don’t grasp a simple fact: responsible gun owners who train and follow the rules aren’t moved by every new regulation.

Trying to ban firearms outright is either naive or reckless in a country where so many people are armed. If you’ve seen combat or grew up around guns, you know that gear and gadgets don’t replace training and ammunition.

One shot is all it takes. That’s part of why authorities do not attempt mass raids on lawful owners.

Be prepared, know your rights, and don’t let policy ignore reality.

Don’t tread on me, friend.

Yep. I have guns, mostly for home defense. Nothing I've really had to think about too much tho. Go to the range every 6 months or so just to kinda keep up.

I've recently decided to take them more seriously. Stocked up on ammo. I'm gonna go to the range monthly now.

I don't have any idea on what will happen with the US. But something is gonna happen. Things'll probably get worse before they get better.

And I'm gonna be prepared. I live in a gun-friendly state, so it's easier. I'm definitely taking full advantage of my rights while we have them.
