General GunTuber thread

  • 🔧 At about Midnight EST I am going to completely fuck up the site trying to fix something.
Nogunz here, what's a good, reasonably priced, gun for self defense? I'm thinking something like a handgun or shotgun
A more serious answer: find a local range, learn the basics of firearms, and try out a few different models and see which line up with your shooting technique and ability.

And you think you'll get a good answer from us?

Buy a FAMAS

Just buy a Glock 19, Mossberg 500, and an AR-15 like every normie.

Or unironically that. You can substitute the Glock for an M1911 if you're willing to pick a fight over .45 and you can substitute the Mossberg for a Remington 870 if you want to go cheaper. You can also substitute the AR for an AK if you don't like our odds against Russia.

And ONLY shoot anything bigger than 40 S&W. Any cartridge smaller than that is only fit for faggots and Europeans. I personally carry a 500 S&W with a 3 inch barrel to deal with the local teens and their love of blasting reggaetón after 9pm. I have a lawn to mow at 7am you fucking spics!
 
what's the consensus for someone like Demolition Ranch?
but Garand Thumb once said he saw his channel analytics and DR is huge with children.
A few months ago Garand Thumb was on a Podcast (The Art and War Podcast to be specific) he has been on twice and on one of the episodes he discussed going to a fan event with Matt from Demo Ranch and that every fan there was between 5 and 10.

You most likely want a 9mm, polymer framed, striker fired handgun. Your body characteristics will determine what kind of 9mm, polymer framed, striker fired handgun will be best for you (some people can get away with Concealing a Glock 34 with a light and optic while others have to carry a stock Glock 26 in order to not make it obvious that they are carrying). After finding a 9mm, polymer framed, striker fired handgun you like, you should acquire a carry permit (not necessary if you live in a state with Constitutional Carry, 20 states have it and more are working on passing it) and get a Kydex (NOT Leather) Holster of either the Inside the Waistband or Outside the waistband variety. If you feel it necessary take a shooting course but definitely watch a lot of videos, read a lot of articles and invest in high quality defensive ammunition such as Federal HST or Speer Gold Dot. It is generally recommended that you carry with a weapon light (thus you will need a holster that can accommodate one) Also you should probably shoot a couple boxes of FMJ to get acquainted.

Now if you want a long gun exclusively for defensive purposes the answer is AR-15 with sling, optic and weapon light.

3 inch barrel? I carry the same thing with a 1 inch barrel. This way I can blind them with my fireball.

If you EDC with a weapon light your friends are legally allowed and required to make fun of you.

The only acceptable weapons light is the one from SHOT show a few years back that only turns on when you put your finger on the trigger. A weapon light is like a katana: if you turn it on, you must draw blood.

I've got a pretty big frame, but a small waist

New Guntuber arc when?

Invest in Hawaiian shirts and you could carry a Glock 17.
IMO the boogaloo bois ruined Hawaiian shirts, they just scream “I am carrying a gun right now”

Aloha nui loa from Hawai'i. The Aloha Shirt is a perennial fashion choice anywhere the temperature is over 75 degrees and the only way to wear one wrong is if it's tucked in under shorts. Anyone who says otherwise is a faggot, and possibly a māhū.
 
I guess it's not a lot but his last video he put a Holosun ontop an ACOG. Blasphemous.

I just don't fuck with Chinesium and I guess I'm an RMR fan
I miss the days of him reviewing quirky but cheap guns. Now it’s all NODs and NV aiming devices.

He seemed needlessly harsh in the assessment of this optic. Sure, its not a great option for flat range larping due to price and eyebox. However, AFAIK its one of the few ways to get all the functionality of an ACOG and red dot in a package that leaves extra rail space for lights and lasers, something I imagine its intended users would appreciate.
