Moved in with housemates so needed to get a real locking cabinet.

New pew pew day yay 😜

Typical for me...

ordered a blank with custom engraving.

I have a friend who has a mill and jigs.

During the machining, the alignment jig slipped a couple thou and the trigger group will not install.

Now it's just an aluminum paperweight.

Remember to test your armor, folks! This one stopped a trio of 7.62x54r API rounds.

In light of recent events, such as our government going rapidly towards an autocracy, I have made the decision that I am going to save up and purchase a handgun a few days after my 21st birthday, which is in a few months. I have never shot a gun in my life, but I have always respected the second amendment. I also want to practice proper gun safety, of course.

As stated my budget would be around $400 USD, but can extend to an additional $100. I would prefer to start off with a caliber that has less recoil (such as 22LR all the way to maybe a 9mm, I am 6'4 and 230 lbs if that matters) because I don't want to be unable to shoot it properly. Thank you in advance!

How am i supposed to carry while trying to wear slutty little outfits??🥲

i feel like everyone will immediately be like, "yep she definitely has a gun" no matter how i carry...

i'm mtf and pretty much always just keep my pistol (taurus gx2) in my purse, but with the loaded magazines next to it. i also love wearing crop tops and little shorts.

does anyone have any recommendations? possible even a holster with a trigger guard that could be inside my purse so i can keep loaded?

i would really prefer people not seeing i obviously am carrying.

thanks in advance!

Sorry if I missed the announcement, but I was informed this weekend by a shooting friend that the HR1 (Big Beautiful Bill) gave us "No More $200 Tax Stamps for Suppressors"

Busy now digging change out of my sofa cushions.

I’m so glad I stumbled across this Vz 52 a while back I think is just a beautiful rifle. (Got to love trying to find 7.62x45 though 🥲)

Anyone here fan of Henry Big Boy X Lever Action Rifle?

Does it need a scope?

Is it good for deer hunting?

How is a Lever Action Rifle different from a Lever Action Shotgun (for example one used in Terminator 2: Judgment Day by Arnie).

I mean I know the difference between a Rifle and a Shotgun but I see many brands making Lever Action Rifles but not Shotguns.

Cheers

Does any transfemmes here have Hunting and/or Clay shooting as a hobby?

What game do you hunt?

What guns do you use for Hunting and/or Clay shooting?

Do your masculine friends frown upon you because hunting and clay shooting are traditionally viewed as male hobbies?

Cheers

I like collecting guns for their novelties, rather than the complete set. I don't need four plastic fantastics from different manufacturers. This one is fun because it has an integrated suppressor, resulting in a yuge muzzle. Takes bog-standard Glock 17 magazines and has a dogshit trigger, but ai like it anyway.
