    Reminder that gun control was originally kicked off in reaction to the Black Panthers arming themselves, so yeah.

          create a new trans gun toting group of people; make sure that they got LOTS of publicity; and call them the t-panthers.

    They’ll just use transmedicalism as a way to regulate only the people they don’t want to have guns

      Mark my words, there will be a bipartisan push to regulate guns in cases of “mental illness”, and a completely coincidental piece of legislation will label trans people as “mentally ill”.

      While you can definitely shoulder a rifle and pull the bang switch with one arm, it would be extremely difficult to control the recoil outside of some very specific firing positions

    I remember I saw a video one time of Steven crowder ( right wing YouTube idiot) “infiltrate an antifa cell” and was freaking out because one of them had A KNIFE. meanwhile every other episode he’s bragging that he’s always packing his emotional support revolver.

    Is that a real AK? That’s not easy to get in the US. Like $3000 in fees just to apply for one.

      Hi armed gunma’am here,

      A “real AK” could be a real Russian parts kit that was rebuilt into an AK, a zastava which is around 1200, a Century Arms AK which is around 800, an AK74 which could be around 2-3k. “Real AK” means a lot and also nothing at the same time. Typically this is called a “AK pattern” rifle since the bolt, gas system and furniture are typically the same between them. Just like there are 1000 companies that make AR15 style rifles we would call that a “AR pattern” rifle.

      You can go to any gun store that has these available, pay the cost for the gun then a transfer fee of anywhere from 25-75 dollars.

      Hard to tell, it doesn’t look like an airsoft gun. Showing up to a protest with an airsoft gun would be a very bad idea.
