Agreed. Don’t go for an expensive gucci gun, don’t buy the cheapest thing out there. Every gun manufacturer and retail store is chud owned so just get the best deal you can.

Unfortunately, import/export restrictions will prevent that.

Yeah it’s the best option simply due to its popularity and the shear amount of accessories/customization options, and also the ammo availability.

As for pistols this is a good option for similar reasons

Yeah it’s not cheap but it’s not too bad and if you’re looking for something reliable and compatible with lots of customization it’s a good investment.

Do I really need an AR-15? Not a handgun?

It depends on your threat level. If you’re in hog county and you’re not a visibly straight white guy, you could benefit from both. But if your neighborhood is safe but you travel to another city for work where it’s more hostile, then a handgun might serve you better.

M&P 2.0s have been on sale under $400 and that’s quite a steal for an extremely underrated gun which have been compared favorably to Glocks

However, I highly suggest you don’t spend the entire $1000 on a single gun. You will need ammo and potentially a safe. A good safe and beginner’s stockpile will cost over $500 total. So personally, if I had $1000, it would be pistol, safe, and ammo. (AR ammo tends to be more expensive and you will get less)

Alternatively, you can go for a .22 rifle for training. But if you plan on defense and can’t afford to buy multiple guns, I’d stick to just getting a defensive gun i.e. 9mm pistol

A good safe

Absolutely second this, esp for a pistol

Glocks are good if you want something with cheap magazines (you can occasionally find cheapo 30-rounder sticks for $10 and Glock factory magazines are cheap compared to other OEM pistol magazines) and a lot of aftermarket support. Older .40 caliber models can also be converted to 9mm and they’re pretty plentiful used.

depends what you want it for

AR-15 is a good all-rounder, or so i’ve been told

but if you need something to carry with you, Nako suggested a handgun

if youre a small bitch like me ar15 is the only decently priced option for a rifle. i feel like my tits will get blasted off every time i use a big heavy shotgun with my redneck friend :shrug-outta-hecks:

i can see a long ranged sport rifle with a scope too. good for hunting if youre desperate next time a big hurricane like katrina hits idaho and decimates the population and the KKK is roaming around eating people or some shit which kinda actually happened during katrina :doomjak:

I will use it for the reasons people on here who post about how it’s probably a good idea to learn how to use and obtain a gun would use it for, I guess, Idunno.

Advice on the expected uses would be nice too
