I started the gun conversations about what one could buy. lol
it's related to guns, it started with talks about gun control and the lack of someone's ability to get a gun.
Awww yiss, the chat I can relate to
gibe us M O A R guns!
The punt gun
Damn, whats the recoil on that
Yes
Punt guns are responsible for at least two extinctions of species of water bird
It is illegal to use them today
in USA*
See? They work. If I'm going to get a gun, I want one that works.
Aren't those just giant bored shotguns?
Sure are
I want one of these
Is there like a legal limit on the size of shotgun bore?
I can say what the legal limit should be
20mm and above is usually considered cannon, however since 12ga > 50cal shotguns already have a DD exemption, so I dunno
with the size of that thing it looks like it could function as a makeshift anti-aircraft gun
The strongest one can hold without shattering their forearms
Disregard the hinge thing (the inventor just wanted to show that it can be made into a top-break as well as side-swing revolver, so he implemented both in a prototype)
What if I made a shotgun pepperbox/volley gun?
Same basic effect but legal?
How long before the US Space Force gets bolters
You can get any size you want, legally
This russian revolver is 12.7mm, but it comes with a buttstock, so it would not murder the hands
DDs can still be registered
If I recall, the DD designation comes from how fast you can fire right?
Nope
a bolter would rip your arm straight off, so extreme genetic engineering would be first
bolter rounds are roughly the size of a water bottle
Comes from bore size OR explosive charge
Is there a specific number for that?
IE, rifle above .50cal is a DD
Or does it vary by state?
National
But a .30cal could be a DD if it's explosive tipped above a certain amount
Don't know the amount, sorry
