Unfortunately, it seems like everywhere that’s good for one isn’t good for the other.

You would think they should be related, both are a matter of individual liberty and self determination, but in reality that’s not how it goes.

I’m currently living in a state with an“assault” weapons ban and would like to move eventually, but I’m not sure where.

Are there any Goldilocks states that are good on both issues?

Oregon is pretty good for this.

There's a ridiculous anti gun measure, prop. 114, that barely passed at the ballot box a few years ago, but was immediately blocked as unconstitutional. It would require law enforcement permission (paid, of course) to get a permit to buy a gun, ban magazines with any kind of capacity, and ban the scary guns.

But it's just not happening. Law enforcement is against it, the only judge that seems to support it is the federal one, and even people who voted for it realized it was terrible and now say they'd never support another attempt.

Our CC laws are pretty easy, healthcare for trans folk here is outstanding, and the drawbacks are that it's hard to find a job and the fact that the state's democratic party is deeply and openly corrupt, which plays out as your tax dollars just constantly disappearing with no accountability and PDX/Multnomah county being irredeemably dysfunctional as a result.

A place for all to discuss defense, weapons, strategy, and related topics, especially in relation to the Igbt community and our allies

The best option for a defensive firearms is a 5.56x45mm AR-15, and a reputable 9x19mm handgun.

Defensive firearms should have a WML, long guns a sling, and handguns require a Kydex or solid plastic holster that fully covers the trigger.

A red dot or etched optic is ideal, but backup irons are important as well! Be sure to check out r/TheArmedGayAgenda
