I grew up around all kinds of guns. My father has 4 ak-47s, 4 ar-15s, a few mini-14s, an m-14, and lots and lots of pistols. :cool:

you would like my group then.

[Nolan]

you would like my group then.
And what's that?

[Red Subverter]

YES! I am a gun loving commie. I have a 20 Gauge shotgun, .22 magnum, a Semi Auto Hi-Point 9mm Carbine, and I will be getting either a semi auto AKS-74U or a semi auto AK-47!:D

then you must join my group called gun lovers.

[TheCultofAbeLincoln]

I like shooting guns though I'm not that good of a shot. I don't own any at the moment, but use them quite often. I'm thinking of getting a shotgun soon, some 20ish gauge pump action. 12 gauge is too big for the rapid firing I want, but I'm worried 20 may be too small but I think it'll do.

[Raúl Duke]

I have no problems with weapons...although I wouldn't describe myself as a "gun lover" per se.

[Rusty Shackleford]

i enjoy firearms but i rarely get to shoot. its been years since i have shot one.

i do want to by an airsoft gun and get back into the more "hardcore" type of airsoft with the upper end guns and going to games set up in my region.

[Chambered Word]

I've always had alot of interest in guns, I'm a bit of a gun-loving commie.

[hugsandmarxism]

Guns ftw. :D

[Edelweiss]

you crazy gun loving Yankees...

[Chambered Word]

you crazy gun loving Yankees...

I'm Australian. :lol:

Seriously though, I don't know why people on the left seem to have a total abhorrence of firearms and weapons in general.

[Rusty Shackleford]

seriously. i think it may stem from the liberal anti-gun sentiment of the right wing of the left.

[Stand Your Ground]

I love guns. I want an AK-47 myself.

[Vendetta]

I just have a hunting rifle.

[KC]

Edit

[Česká Zbrojovka]

Another gun loving commie here. :D

[bcbm]

i don't see why anyone would love guns, they only are used to hurt people i think the world would be better off without guns

[mykittyhasaboner]

I have a bb gun. I'm cooler than all of you.

[KC]

Edit

[bcbm]

Uh they're used to hurt animals too you know, which I think we all can enjoy.

u know who else likes to hurt animals? serial killers

[KC]

Edit

[bcbm]

:(i guess its better i fu shoot ur own but i still think its cruel. i dont see y animals r so abused

[Raúl Duke]

I have a bb gun. I'm cooler than all of you.

I have one (or more as in the family has one) back in PR; it's used to shoot non-native iguanas or target practice on cans.

[FreeFocus]

I'm really looking into getting a precision rifle and long range shooting once I have the money to purchase the necessary components.

Same here, but guns seem surprisingly cheap to me, it's just the ammo that can get expensive. A good rifle (AKs, M4s) can run you anywhere from $500 to $1,000. I might be wrong on this though, I'm not exactly an enthusiast yet lol.

[Scary Monster]

Where in the heck would i get an AK47 from? i sure do want one. I always thought that they can only be bought on the black market :p i dont know much about guns. But anyway, i sure do love shootin em! My uncle has a scoped .22 bolt action rifle (i dunno the name of it), of which im a good shot with. Ive also shot a 12 gauge shotgun, 9mm pistols and a .50 cal magnum. Those .50 cals are pretty insane to shoot with all the recoil

[Chambered Word]

Those .50 cals are pretty insane to shoot with all the recoil

Are you talking about the DEAGLE brand DEAGLE?

Sorry, I had to. :lol:

[Communist Theory]

Fuck guys now the cops know what kind of guns we have.
I'm calling off the attack...

:laugh:

[Scary Monster]

Sorry, I had to. :lol:

I dont rememba what brand it was. all i know is that it didnt have a muzzle brake ;) It wasnt no deagle thats for sure. it had a big ass barrel which was 10 inches or maybe a lil more

[Manifesto]

Want some real guns but all I have is an airsoft gun (even that is illegal here hell even spit wads are) and a blow gun.

Of course, you need a gun license, and I'm not well-versed in all the laws about interstate travel of guns and purchasing them across state lines and the like. Look into it, though - you can buy AKs legally as long as they aren't military-grade I believe (which amounts to differences in stuff like magazine size)

[Chambered Word]

I knew nobody would get the joke. It's a stupid trolling method on 4chan's weapons board (i.e adopt the persona of a CoD4 kiddie and talk about how great the 'deagle' and the AK-47 are).

And auto or semi-auto. You have to have a special license to own fully automatic guns I believe..

[Communist Theory]

You guys all suck.

[FreeFocus]

AK's and M4's aren't precision rifles. Precision rifles (known as "sniper rifles" to common folk) are much more expensive and can run in the tens of thousands of dollars or more.

I was agreeing with the "once I get the money" part, I guess I shouldn't have quoted the beginning :lol:. Personally, at some point I'd start working with snipes, but I'm more interested in ARs.

[Robocommie]

Genuinely Leftist politics involves guns at some point, so I don't really reject them. I just don't have much of an interest in them as a hobby. Guns to me are just a tool. Though, I will say it's fun to shoot cans or clay pigeons.

The right wing of the radical left wing. :D That's a funny picture.

[ellipsis]

Social, thanks for the name drop. I guess I'm the token gun fetishist here.

And pretty much everybody in this thread is a n00b and don't know what they are talking about.

[piet11111]

i like my HW50S air rifle its so much fun to shoot cards all day and constantly getting better at it.

that and the mandatory beer to go along with it.

[Rusty Shackleford]

you think its a coincidence that the US has by the far the highest rate of gun related crime?

[AntiFASH]

FWIW I enjoy building and refurbishing military pattern rifles. I don't really like shooting them though. I don't really like shooting much at all anymore. I wouldn't call myself a gun nut, and I hate the fuck out of the NRA. If Obama were to outlaw all assault rifles tomorrow I'd show up with all my shit in a wheelbarrow for ATF trade ins.

I also like working on cars, sw radios, and computers. Semi auto rifles are just plain neat from a mechanical standpoint. To get all those little parts to work in time is a helluva challenge. To get them to work consistently requires real skill...

Sheesh, my second post on Revleft is in the gun fetishist thread. I hope I'm not starting off on the wrong foot :rolleyes:

[Nolan]

You think it's a coincidence that it has the highest number of fundies and right-wing knuckleheads? Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.

[Chambered Word]

True, true. The problem with the US is that any fuckwit can get hold of a gun.

[Nolan]

Ok. I live in Appalachia. After the Brady law and other such legislation, it's not exactly easy to get hold of a gun here. There's a lot of paperwork involved, and the FBI has to check you out. Not all of the stereotypes of the US are true.

Now Texas might be a different story. :lol:

[Dr Mindbender]

The USA has very different and unique historical as well as material semantics so its hard to draw a comparsion. This country among many others are also infested with fundies and right wing knuckleheads so i dont get the connection.

My point is, compared to the US, even taking into account the Northern Ireland conflict, we have very little gun violence. I think that is in no small part thanks to the fact that guns are extremely difficult to get hold of here.

[Scary Monster]

haha i see. Yeah the only type of .50 cal handgun anyone really knows about is the deagle! Ive heard its a pretty crappy handgun

[khad]

A class III, and buying full auto weapons will cost an arm and a leg. They are overpriced like hell.

[Comrade B]

I don't really like guns, kinda freak me out, but I am considering getting one soon, mostly because these right wing nuts have started to scare me, especially with their guns in public shit.

When I was a kid I got in some moderately deep shit and ended up around a lot of illegal weapons, caught myself before I went any deeper into shit, but that is another thing that gets me wanting to keep away from them

[The Douche]

Nobody on revleft knows guns/gun laws like I do.

Switzerland also has a lot of gun violence apparently. Guns are pretty well ingrained in their culture and are easy to get a hold of. Soldiers over there keep their guns and an emergency package of ammunition with them at home IIRC.

I thought the Cuban population was armed, how's gun violence over there? :confused:

It's a pretty poor weapon for actual combat from what I've heard (go and see people firing them on YouTube and you can get an idea of how easy it is to use). It does get irritating to see it as the best weapon in alot of vidya games.

Apparently so. Anything semi-auto or auto is illegal in Australia I think.

...so Switzerland is like a mini german-french speaking USA, in the gun sense. Thanks for re-affirming my point.

Guns scare me. They shoot projectiles at like 2000 m/s and make a mess of people. They're loud and can cause permanent hearing damage.












But I think it'd be pretty awesome to own one of these:

its a glock 17 with a silencer and an under-barrel laser pointer


And a shotgun would probalby be the best investment because shotguns provide an excellent source of home protection if that is what anyone is worried about.

No, not worried about home protection. Just street cred

all you need then is an airsoft gun in your pocket. never pull it out and reveal its a fake though. then youll get your ass kicked.


by the way, dont take my advice on that

[RHIZOMES]

If in the end I can't be fucked learning to play guitar I'll get a gun as my compensatory phallic symbol.

I was just being facetious (as were you, I assume). There's not much to "protect" myself from around these parts, so gun ownership would be pretty much pointless.

I really like shotguns though. They're so badass.

Funny that you mention the airsoft thing... my friend actually did that once. We were walking around at night and a bunch of punks (not the music aficionados) heckled us for "being fags" since two guys obviously can't walk together without being gay. Anyways, I didn't know he was packing his airsoft Beretta, but he lifted his shirt and revealed the airsoft tucked into his waistband. The punks were like "Oh SHIT" and ran off.

A pretty stupid move, but seeing as how no one really owns guns here I guess statistically it was not dangerous.
