This is referring to all the people who say I own this gun to protect against a tyrannical government. While I agree fighting a tyrannical government is noble Most of those people aren’t serious about it and are just LARPing. If you are serious about fighting for your freedom then you’d know that fighting alone will get you nowhere. No revolution or civil war has ever been won by scattered armed individuals with no organization, you need to join a group to be effective.
But all the militias are full of right wing psychos
Yeah, but you won’t be able to change their mind from the outside. Join one and try to educate them on true freedom from the billionaire capitalist class. Worst case scenario even if they don’t respond you’ll still be training and learning how to work in a group, and you can be a spy and learn their tactics and how to defeat them in the case of a civil war.
I’ll just buy the gun now and join a group once shit starts going down
That’s the wrong order, get organized and then buy weapons. Left wing organizations will be banned and forced underground long before guns are. There’s a very high probability trump will ban armed left wing groups in the next couple years, him restricting gun purchases is far less likely. It’s best to get in an organization and build trust before it goes underground because after they are banned they are rightfully more picky on who they let in for fear of informants.
A rifle with a caliber .300 or greater for hunting anything bigger than a raccoon such as boar, deer or elk.
The size of the bullet, again assuming it’s chambered in 5.56, I guess you can get ars in a larger caliber but they’re less common.
Ok name one then. They are not optimal for hunting boar or deer, just google it if you don’t believe me. You said they aren’t the best for small game either as they’re overpowered, same with birds, so what should you be hunting with an AR ?
Seriously just google this, I’m not gonna argue the math and ballistics with you because I honestly don’t know them that well and am going to take the many testimonials and guides online of actual hunters. You can even ask your friends who hunt if they would recommend using 5.56.
Also legal doesn’t mean ethical, you can hunt elk with a handgun here in California legally, that doesn’t mean it’s ethical. There are no restrictions on caliber size, just that it has to be center-fire and soft point. Idk if California is strict or lenient on hunting but I assume it’s pretty strict relative to the rest of the country.
EDIT: apparently California is lenient and it looks like it is also illegal in some states to hunt deer with .223 including Illinois which requires .300 and above for hunting deer, but that must be because the law makers don’t understand ballistics and cavitation.
Oh, ok, so you mean an AK-47.
That’s a .300 caliber rifle.
AK 47s are pretty common.
No, you’re wrong, they are.
Just google it if you don’t believe me.
Hahah, ok.
I’m not arguing with you.
I just gave you a physics lesson.
You can be too lazy to read it or too incompetent to understand it, but you’re not gonna be able to argue with it.
Because its just true.
I was being polite up till this point, but you’ve entirely disregarded 90% of what I’ve said.
Its also hilarious to say you’re not going to argue with me, and then keep arguing with me by providing other arguments.
You don’t know what you’re talking about.
And, you’re being immensely disingenuous now, you’ve gone beyond ignorant into willfully ignorant.
As such, we’re done here, fuck off.
Yeah, hunting with an ak would be better then hunting with an ar-15 in 5.56
Since you don’t seem to want to google “x hunting caliber recommendation” , or you did and saw that nobody thinks 5.56 is the way to go and came back here mad that you couldn’t find anyone to back you up, here’s some guides:
Here’s a boar hunting guide recommending:
Here’s a guide on the top 10 hunting cartridges for deer and look, 5.556/.223 didn’t make the list
And here’s a guide for elk hunting cartridges and again 5.56 is nowhere to be seen
Seriously just find a single person who’s hunted before and recommends using 5.56 and I’ll admit I’m wrong. You will get some people who have done it but it’s not making anyone’s top 10 list. Maybe thats because they can’t comprehend your physics lesson but I’d say they can understand what bullet makes the animal stop moving.
Neither do you, neither of us have hunted before, so we should both listen to the people who have. I’ve been looking into boar hunting recently and all the guides I’ve read recommend large caliber rounds to lower the chance of wounding the animal, which is why I made the first comment. So I’m going to take the words of people who have done this before over your physics explanations and when I do hunt it will be with a .300 or above.
