I'd like to try shooting one just cause

Yeah

Honestly just tired of all this civil unrest and riots so I need to get some guns for protection. Even then if I did defend myself everyone wants to damn people and convict wrongfully. Just tired of it.

Yeah...

I really just don't know where we go from here.

Yeah. Just get strapped or get clapped

Anybody have any idea where I can buy some simple 12 gauge slugs? (Preferably rifled)

I mean a 6 shooter would be good for sd if you get it in like 44 mag or something

Maybe 357

Cabela's

Or academy

After getting a .22 would it be better to get a pistol or a shotgun?

What are you after?

Are you doing it for prepping, home defense...?

Home defense and something I could grab when shtf

Shotgun

Do you have any recommendations?

Normally I would

But I don't know what availability is like in your area

Mm

You think a pawn shop could be a good way to go?

Could be, yeah

Bring a gun guy buddy with you that knows what to look for as far as condition goes

I don't have one of those 😅

Do you know of any gunsmiths in your area?

Not sure to be honest

I've never looked lol

That'd be good for you to find out

I sometimes have need of one, and I'm damn glad I know one

Awesome

I'll have to check around my area

Thank you <:TrumpSmile:720121948088041513>

One thing that's nice about shotguns like a Remington 870 or a mossberg 500 is that you can get new barrels for them relatively easily

Oh nice

And they aren't difficult to replace

I've heard about both of those shotguns but I've never shot either one

Both of those are good shotguns, although the quality of new remington is kinda down these days

Ah

The phosphate finish on my 870 rusts even in a safe with moisture absorbing cans

Also took a couple hundred rounds through it before it loosened up

Dang
