How many Revolutionaries have actually fired a gun?

[SocialPhilosophy]

Im curious.

[RainbowLeftist]

Fired a gun multiple times. I learned how to shoot with help from Ex-Military.

[SocialPhilosophy]

If so, what is your favorite gun?

Why?

Sometimes they know what they're talking about, sometimes they just get people killed. the army is starting to loose its marksmanship standards because they have guns that can just fill the air with lead and pray something connects. the kind of marksmanship that is going to help the public will be done with semi auto rifles and bolt action rifles.

[9]

I fired a water gun on several occasions.

[RedRise]

Are you encouraging us to learn how to shoot?
As much as I am a revolutionary, I don't believe in extreme violence, like shooting people.:(
I do, however, agree that the marksmanship standards in the military would be going down now that everyone has machine guns and stuff. Sad that the true warrior is disappearing as new technology arrives. :closedeyes:

...Am planning to go paint-balling.:D

[RainbowLeftist]

My friends that were in the military always spoke highly of the "One Shot, One Kill" idea. Though, when it hits the fan, Im sure that went right out the window.

[h0m0revolutionary]

I did my work experience in the Army :/. So I have, but it wasn't anything life-changing lol.

Im sure it did to all but the most experienced veterans.

i think guns are the most effective tool to project power (no pun intended). even when you don't use them. but the key is, knowing when and where to use them. That is why i think everyone should be educated in their use.

[Verix]

It's funny i live in a place where everybody has multiple guns (rural oklahoma)
yet ive never fired one other then a BB gun. as soon as i hit 18 in 2 months i plan on buying a shotgun, the only good thing about the U.S. is its gun laws

I've killed three U.S. presidents, twice with sniper rifles and once with a ninja death star. But the FBI can't find me because I'm on the internet and the Internet is anonymous.

It is more likely that the people will have to take back their power by force of arms, than voting. and if not, leaning to defend yourself, and become self sufficient through hunting and farming is still a good idea.

*LMAO* Well done fellow Guelphite.

[Jack]

I learned how to shoot when I was a like 11 or 12, mostly bolt action rifles and a revolver. I can work with hand-help weapons the best, being pretty decent at reloading them quickley and can turn a revolver into a semi-auto in about a minute.

I haven't fired a gun in about 4 or 5 years though, and don't own one.

[Il Medico]

I did my work experience in the Army :/. So I have, but it wasn't anything life-changing lol.
They allow homosexuals in the Army in Britain? What the fuck? Is America the only first world nation with the crap "Don't ask, don't tell" policy???

*Note, I don't think anyone should join the military. They are imperialist scum and murders who serve only to protect capitalist interest. I just really hate the blatant homophobia in the military.

* As for the OP's question. I have a really realistic (looking) air soft gun I have fired a number of times, does that count?

[War Cry]

I've shot a gun. A couple of revolvers, a few bolt action rifles and then my uncle thought it would be really funny to watch me shoot a shotgun when I was twelve with absolutely no warning that the thing kicked like a mule.

I don't think the ballot will never bring true revolution, only compromise and co-optation. At least not in America. That would be a threat to global capitalism, and capitalism will always protect it's property.

[Kukulofori]

The American ballot box won't even bring cooperation. I think Obama's about the best we're going to get.

I've held a gun, and I intend to get its owner to teach me how to fire it sometime in the next couple weeks. And when I can afford it I plan to get one.

[ls]

Only reactionaries haven't fired a gun of any kind and they need purging NOW.

I've fired a .22 rifle and the L98A1 Cadet GP rifle (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L98A1_Cadet_GP_Rifle). Army Cadets is a fun lark and getting into the Shooting Team was the icing on the cake.

[#FF0000]

I have a lot of guns and I have fired a lot of guns. I learned to shoot from my dad, who was the head security officer (read: counter-terrorism or something) on his ship. I think he certified as an Expert with a .45 pistol a few times.

[ThorsMitersaw]

"Reactionary (also reactionist) refers to any political or social movement or ideology that seeks a return to a previous state (the status quo ante) and opposes changes in society it deems harmful."

[Jazzratt]

Only really once. A 12 gauge, the make and model of I cannot recall for the life of me. I was okay with it.

Of course if the revolution comes down to a long term shooting war someone has fucked it up.

[Conquer or Die]

I shot guns with my dad growing up. My favorite was the "Dirty Harry Gun" or the .44 magnum. I fired bolt action, replica civil war revolvers, and various other guns including glocks.

My yacht club has some good arms, too. You can turn a cabin cruser into a missle launching gun ship in just a couple of hours. The plan is: the country clubs and the yacht clubs will control the east and west coasts of Florida. The anti-Fidel Cubans will get Miami and the rednecks (you don't even want to know!) will take over the interior.

All set for the Revoltion. Bring it on!:thumbup::redstar2000::thumbup:

[Dooga Aetrus Blackrazor]

I fired a BB-gun once. I voted "no" because that isn't a real gun. I did learn how to keep one eye closed because of it. Strangely, I can only keep my left eye closed and my right open, and not the other way around. Exciting.

[Luís Henrique]

No.

What does this have to do with revolution?

Luís Henrique

[Robert]

The capitalists have property, power and guns. They won't give up the property or the power unless you shoot them, and so you have to be able to a) shoot; and b) shoot better than they do. Or so goes the argument.

If you have never shot a gun, you may end up in the typing pool come the revolution. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

[danyboy27]

never fired a gun, but i got mad mcguiver skill, so i guess i would end up making traps bombs and logistics.

Their property only means anything if it is socially accepted; if workers refuse their command, what are they going to do? Call the police? The army? What if cops and soldiers also refuse their orders?

Revolution is a political operation, not a military one. And we need no other guns than our enemies'.

even if its not socially accepted, its to be considered that landowner will eventually raise their own milita to protect their assets.
if the army dosnt back him he gonna turn his head toward people who are scared or have ressentiments and hire them.

[RedScare]

Yes. It's not that special.

[SocialPhilosophy]

Guns are the only true means to achieve what we believe in. but Americans rights to keep and bear arms are increasingly being attacked, not just by restricting gun ownership, but by taxing ammo, and supplies used to make it. that is why i think that socialists need to take active steps in ensuring that we are able to keep our guns until the time is right, in which we can act.

Any future armed revolution that would occur in the US, would without a doubt recieve huge amounts of weapons from foreign bodies. You might need to accept weapons from organiseations that you would not usually want to be associated with. But without a doubt, there will be many willing to aid in overthrowing the current regime. Infact they would probably be cueing up to give you weapons.

I am certain of that fact, but receiving these weapons and forming some kind of Organizational flow of these weapons would be difficult, and leadership would be tough in these situations.

A Revolution could just as easily set up a Fascist World Order as a Communist one.

You have to be careful with such things. If you start and Revolution and LOSE--things certainly won't just go back to they way they were before. And at least in the forseeable future you'll lose.

[ThorsMitersaw]

A commenter above made the observation that guns are not needed and I think I mostly agree with that sentiment. A revolution of ideas is what will ultimately bring down the state. Ultimately their guns can not enforce their perverted forms of property rights, corporatism, controlled Keynesian economic fascism nonsensical imperialism upon the world. It can only supplement the victory over minds.

I say the revolution is going to be carried out by the majority of the people reaching new ways of thinking in the future, so that the political process will eventually enact a mandate that will legally transfer ownership of the industries to make them into public institutions.

The Revolution is no sure thing.
Neither Stormfront nor Revleft are exactly capturing the imagination of the majority of people, are they? The question isn't current support but potential future support.While the fact that racism creeps into a lot of people's thinking through anti-immigrant sentiment I really don't think anyone is going to be calling for a return to the Third Reich any time soon. Nor other forms of fascism for that matter. We focus on Germany mostly when talking about fascism for obvious reasons, but it was pretty out there even by fascist standards. If you look at the European fascist countries that had milder policies, stayed out of the war and lasted to the seventies, what you see is that society stagnated and people got utterly fed up. People talk about that happening in Eastern block countries too, but it was more pronounced in these cases, places like Portugal simply became stuck in time until the revolution in the mid seventies.

I don't see people being too keen on that. Progressive politics on the other hand has something to offer. I don't mean that telling people to repeat the Soviet Union is going to get many people excited. Nor for that matter is playing a lot of punk rock and saying "fuck the system". But I do think that a few more cycles of economic trouble and whatnot with no long term solution will persuade people that we need something better. It is troubling that despite the current economic crises, leftism has made gains in only a handful of places, Iceland for instance, but the frank truth is that in most places the left simply was not ready to offer an alternative. It may be that current activists never will be, but there is a need for something better than we have now and one will emerge, even if it needs new people with a rather more grown up attitude to achieve it.

The answer to the original question incidentally is that I have never fired a gun. Come to think of it I have had one pointed at me by an agent of the state though, but it really wasn't very exciting.

I agree with most of what you are saying, except the fact that people may never come to their senses about the massive flaw in the capitalist system on their own. the media just doesn't allow for any leeway for the socialist idea when "reporting" the news, and its even worse for televangelists like Jack Van Impe, who told me on tv that socialism was bad because Stalin was a mass murder (no joke.)

Have you even read about the history of the working class? Whenever we try to challenge capitalism, even peacefully, they send in the army and mow us down. I say fuck that. After all the crimes they have inflicted upon us and still do, we need to be shooting as many of those fuckers as possible, just like we did back in 1936.

[Dr Mindbender]

When i was in the air cadets i fired a .22 lee enfield, L98 rifle (single shot version of the SA-80 with 20 round clip) and a double barrelled shotgun.

I earned a ATC class marksman badge (5 rounds within the space of a 50p coin from 20 yards)

[Scary Monster]

I have two uncles who are gun nuts (though not NEARLY as much as Bud :p). A few years ago when i was 18, we all went to an outdoor shooting range. I shot a scoped .22 bolt action rifle (hit a 10 foot high target on a hill from about 300 meters on my second shot). The dang recoil almost knocked me on my ass on my first shot because i didnt know what was comin! Ive also shot a 12 gauge shotgun, .45 and .50 magnum revolvers and a 9mm Glock. Id say im pretty accurate (though im a little slow reloading) with those guns, so much so that the dudes watchin me were quite suprised since i had never even touched a gun before then

No, no, not me, i have done some stupid things in my time but im not mad enought to post a picture of myself half naked with a bunch of guns on a public leftist revolutionary forum. That would be well, pretty inconceivable or so i thought. I supose some people would be that stupid. Anyway yeah, not me dont worry.

DAMN, and all the women swiming in my local gater hole though you were kind of cute. :lol:

Welcome to Revleft anyway! :thumbup:

Cheers for the welcome :thumbup1:

[Grey-Fox]

I have shot a few guns, learned how to clean and take care of guns and equipment from hunters, a Vietnam Veteran, and from Ex-Navy.

Though I don't go shooting very often, I skirmish a lot with airsoft guns.

[Lyev]

I haven't fired a gun, I don't ever want to... why does change have to brought about through violence?

Because if it isnt I will get bobkinddles to do you in.

Oh and yes I have fired shotguns in the seascouts.

[Lyev]

I will get bobkinddles to do you in.Who's bobkinddles? I don't really follow.

[piet11111]

a 9mm handgun a .357 revolver and a .22 revolver and rifle.

nothing special but they all qualify for "real guns"

What is the point in this thread?

What is the point in this thread?

To compare penis sizes, presumably.

[Bud Struggle]

What is the point in this thread?

To show that the Bourgeoise are better trained and have more and better guns. :(

[Killfacer]

I fired a shotgun once. To be honest this is pretty dependant on the gun laws of different countries.

[Plagueround]

Yes. However, I do not own any firearms and am barred from purchasing any for the next two years. :blushing:

I shoot guns all of the time. Part of my collection:

My yacht club has some good arms, too. You can turn a cabin cruser into a missle launching gun ship in just a couple of hours. The plan is: the country clubs and the yacht clubs will control the east and west coasts of Florida. The anti-Fidel Cubans will get Miami and the rednecks (you don't even want to know!) will take over the interior.

All set for the Revoltion. Bring it on!:thumbup::redstar2000::thumbup:
You can bloody have Florida.

I am surprised that no one has called out your airsoft bullshit. I am sure that you have two stens and three Russian or Japaneses SAWs in addition to the $10,000+ collection of assault rifles, short barreled rifles and m203 grenade launchers. For shame, posting fake gun pics and airsoft guns trying to pass them off as the real deal. Well I ain't buying it.

and yes i have shot lots and lots of real guns, some in full auto.

Well, thats more likely than him having the proper licensing from the ATF ofcourse.

Thanks for ruining the awesomeness.

We always practice with airsofts. Nothing wrong with that. Well use the real thing when the Proletarians come a' knocking. :D As far as the ATF goes--where do you think we get the guns from? ;)

[Manifesto]

Actually where I live you cannot fire an airsoft gun off of your property or else it is illegal.

If I were to quantify the amount of respect I lost for you with this post, it would be so large that Carl Sagan would rise from the dead, simultaneously shit and jizz his pants, then die again from astonishment.

In any case, I think the original question was a bit silly. Just because you've shot a clay disk with a Mossberg doesn't mean you're gonna be worth shit when it's go-time.

The real question is: How many people have stared down the barrel of a loaded gun, held by someone who doesn't give a shit whether you live or die? Or been shot at?

That's what I want to know. But this is the internet - no shortage of e-gangsters in sight.

[synthesis]

Why are you even asking this?

Sounds like some misogynistic bullshit question.

Err... he asks who has fired a gun, and you call him misogynist? That sounds pretty sexist to me. I didn't realize that you need a dick to shoot a gun.

[Forward Union]

Im curious.

For the record, a gun is a weapon that is either attached to the ground, a fixture, or is on wheels.

Anything else is a rifle or hang-gun.

So probably no one here has fired a "gun"

In military parlance, a gun is a muzzle or breech-loaded projectile-firing weapon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weapon). There are various definitions depending on the nation and branch of service. A "gun" may be distinguised from other firearms (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firearm) in being a crew served weapon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crew_served_weapon) such as a howitzer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howitzer) or mortar (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortar), as opposed to a small arm like a rifle (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rifle) or pistol (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pistol), but there are exceptions, such as the USAF (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USAF)'s GUU5/P (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAR-15#GUU-5.2FP). At one time, Land-based Artillery (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artillery) tubes were called Cannon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannon) and Sea-based Naval Cannon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannon) were called Guns. The term "gun" morphed (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morph) into a generic (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generic) term for any tube launched projectile firing weapon used by sailors (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sailor) including boarding parties (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boarding_parties) and Marines (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_%28military%29).


In modern parlance, a gun is a projectile (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projectile) weapon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weapon) using a hollow, tubular barrel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_barrel) with a closed end—the breech—as the means for directing the projectile as well as other purposes—an expansion chamber for propellant, stabilizing the projectile's trajectory, aiming, etc.—and assumes a generally, flat trajectory for the projectile.

Hope this helped to clear any issue with semantics

What the hell has revolution got to do with firing a gun? All revolution means is changing the basis of society

People just want an excuse to fulfill fetish fantasies of masculinity (which in this case is firing a gun at random things) by saying its revolutionary .Personally I think its aborable :o

cant a guy just enjoy shooting random stuff drinking a few beers with friends ?

[deLarge]

Maybe I'm just a redneck, but I thought that firing a pump-action bb gun was something everyone did as a kid...

But yeah, I've fired a gun before. I'm not good with names (brands in general, gun or not), but I've fired a 30-30 handgun, several 22 rifles, pellet guns, etc. Though the targets consisted of rabbits, crows and pop-cans :lol:

[Rosa Provokateur]

Used to screw around with my mom's .22 when I was a kid if that counts for anything. Shot coffee-cans and stuff, nothing to write home about.

Many people on this site had respect for you at one point. It was right after you stopped being a pompous right wing jackass and right before you decided to dismiss everyone on this site as a unified, out of touch, Stalinist clique. I like to refer to it as the "Use of Tom's brain" period.

[shadowmare]

I was a member of the Canadian reserves during my last year of School for Co-op
I fired a Desert Eagle on several occasions as well as the (Revolutionary) stereotype AK-47
Both at the shooting range

[RotStern]

Yes. Most of us have. Big deal. This has no importance what-so-ever.

fuckyeah Semantics. Its funny how Nearly everyone that has posted on here knew what i meant. :glare:

[SocialPhilosophy]

Mydeargodinheaven. the purpose of this thread was to determine if anyone had been taught how and why to use a FIREARM, not a mortar or a fucking howitzer. Guns have a specific role in society, as they level the playing field, from the robbery situations to full scale revolution. capitalists arent going to say "hmm, lets supress a rebellion with STICKS and stones." They will retain power with the easiest means possible. probably the military, and local PD. and they ARE armed. to simply ignore guns, and hope you can pull success out of your ass, is about as likley as them just giving up power.
