My mom needed to get a firearms permit to buy my BB gun some 30 yrs ago… Even better? We were on swim team, and she needed a starter pistol. Ya know, one that fires .22 blanks? Firearms permit not good enough, but she DID manage a pistol permit!! For a STARTER PISTOL with a semi-solid barrel that was not functional and could only fire blanks!

I just saw the uncharted trailer. Holy fuck is that a miscasting. Nothing against Tom holland. Kids great as Spider-Man/Peter Parker but he’s not at all Nathan drake. It was embarrassing to watch.

Mark whalberg as sully is even worse. God they fucked that up.

It depends on what you are trying to get. I’d try a low temp first, like 160ish for 2-3 mins. Then collect and press again hotter.

In Oklahoma, i dont know anyone who doesnt own a handgun. I have several. Probly enuff to have one in each room in my house. Including the bathrooms. What! Havent you ever seen “Psycho”?

Gotta do what ya gotta do. I always have a 357 8 shooter revolver within arms reach heh.

It’s not the guns that worry me, it’s the useless morons who dont know how to use them or when to use them that always worried me.

I am military trained during wartime. Plus i am CLEET Certified and have taken all the classes.
Of course, one never knows what they will do in a given situation. But i do know what to do and more importantly what NOT to do. With the training i have a better chance of not doing something stupid.

I hear you bud. I still got the gun I learned with when I was 9 or 10. Guns, knives, bows, all great tools if in the right hands. Problem is so many people should not be allowed to drive or reproduce let alone have a firearm.

I thought Nathan Fillion was playing him? That was perfect casting appearance wise.

What type is your shower gun?

I’ve got a Glock 19 on me at nearly all times. But I’m super hard to piss off and not particularly prone to violence anyways.

I am pretty happy living in a place where I dont feel I need to be armed all the time.

I hear that cuz! right on! I was ‘military trained’ long before I was old enough to even go into the service, lol. Actually the training my grampa and pop(who were both military) gave me is in part the reason the Navy sent me to NAVSTA great Lakes, after they saw my shooting at Norfolk lol

That’s what makes me not really feel the absence of firearms. The town I’m from and grew up in hasn’t had a murder since like 1978 and you can leave your car running and open in front of a convenience store without having to worry. No one is getting mugged regardless of the hour of day you’re walking around. No one’s breaking into homes and really the biggest incident of crime is people taking shit from cars, and not even breaking into cars but just taking shit from unlocked ones. That’s not even an all the time thing either, usually more like a random spree once in awhile.

I live in the town next to it now and while it isn’t as squeaky clean most of the same applies to 95% of the town (a decent sized “condo” complex being the exception to that- you can get robbed or stabbed in there. Dominos won’t deliver there anymore after a driver got stabbed).

I grew up in the country, where guns were tools, and you were taught to use em properly. Just a 40 min ride away is inner city, with their 9mm’s and their “gats”… When I was in HS, you could see a pair of shotguns hanging in the back window of any given pickup truck in the senior parking lot, and nobody gave a damn.

Crime here is mostly opportunistic… But if a kid put a BB gun in his car today, they’d lock down half the town :frowning:
