Your response, redditor?
be prepared is the motto of the boy scouts
this but 5 shots of .38 wadcutters
sonny boy
those are not wadcutters, they're fmj flat points. The difference between a fmjfp and a keith style semi-wadcutter is in the ratio of meplat to caliber diameter and the style and shape of the ogive
shut up nerd
I don't care what those are you dork I'm saying that's what I carry in my .38 snubnose dude, this reads like a bot post anyway but don't you think I can tell the difference between wadcutters/SWC and FMJ flat nose?
Shut the frick up nerd
>in an effort to appear intelligent, the creature fatally ignores the context of the post it's responding to and only succeeds in making itself look like more of a fool than was previously thought
Many such cases.
Grandpa… that’s a 5 shot revolver…
5 in the clip, 1 in the chamber noob
Assault revolvers are banned in my state anon.
"Engineer Landstad's automatic revolver from 1900. Made at the royal arsenal. Only a few rounds were fired during trials and the revolver can reasonably be considered a total failure. It was however the first Norwegian design trialed during considerations to adopt an automatic service pistol. The revolver is preserved in England. Collection and photo courtesy of Dr. Geoffrey Sturgess.
Yeah, it was total autism from the start. It's "cylinder" only holds two rounds and is only used as a more complex feed mechanism than a simple slide.
Anyway, someone needs to email this to Kel-Tek. Not me, I think they put me on a blacklist after the last suggestion I gave them.
I carefully explain to him how the meta has changed and fentanyl zombies require six shots of .44
Someone on that much fent is utterly incapable of harming anyone but themselves
people on fent dont do shit but sit around and maybe die of an OD. you could send one guy with a gun around and kill 90% of a city's fentanyl zombies in a few hours, they will just sit there as you shoot them.
Fent isn't the issue, PCP is.
Fent zombies just sleep all day moron. It’s the junkies on uppers you need to worry about
If you hit them in the oily t-zone you can drop a fent zombie with pretty much any caliber.
I don’t know man but my neighbors in the next apartment over have been having really loud sex for the last 18 minutes jesus frick bros she’s getting it good should I clap afterwards or what
Okay update they finally finished and then they switched on some music and started singing really loud?? Wtf is going on down there hahahah
Its Friday, drink, frick and listen to music night.
Get a 686 Plus, boomer
what if you're jumped by a pack of 7 Black folk?
Then you get to enjoy the thrill of reloading in battle, just like ocelot said.
Just line up two of them, easy.
Give them directions to your mom's house.
take out the silverback, duh
reload and say "you seem to be doing okay, have another"
Your mom would take more than 6 shots of .357 Magnum to take down
Belittle him for being such a limp wristed little boy that can't handle 6 shots of .500 S&W or some super hot loaded .44 Magnum out of a snub nose at the very LEAST.
with six shots you'll be lucky to hit once
>but you missed with all 6 grandad
Why do revolver gays always assume they'll be attacked by only one person? Have you never been exposed to real violence before? I want at least 15 rounds so I can shoot every member of a 5 man sedan crew 3 times.
this.
it's rare to get robbed by a single person here in Philadelphia, these kids attack in packs. Next time some dork runs his mouth about needing six rounds ask him how many times 6 divides into 10
You say that like the pussy new homies nowadays won't go running after 1 shot
the dork isnt moronic enought to live in philedelphia
The chances of you winning a fight against 10 attackers even if they just have their limp dicks, is near zero. Numbers matter more than equipment.
If you're facing 5 bad guys with guns you're gonna get smoked no matter what gun you have in your hand. Life is not a John Wick movie, they aren't going to take turns attacking you.
Actually, were ALL going to die. That's better than only me and one of them dying, allowing the other 3 or 4 to attack someone else later.
The only way you're all going to die is if you load Bubba's Pissin hot loads and give everyone a cuddle before shooting.
>get attacked by 5 dudes
>shoot the first guy
>the other 4 keep kicking you
>shoot the second guy
>the other 3 keep kicking you
>shoot the third guy
>the other 2 keep kicking you
>shoot the fourth guy
>the last one keeps kicking you
this is how things go down in the real world. gangbangers never flee at the first sign of resistance. they act like video game mooks and run at you one by one as you slaughter them
Gangbangers run the frick away the instant they hear the first bang moron. Most have at least some semblance of self preservation.
But you have to keep shooting or they'll turn around and pull for revenge shots, so 6 rounds ain't enough.
the DA is going to love that explanation
better 12 jurors than 12 Black folk
That's why you need maximum capacity. Do you think your chances of survival are better in this situation with 6 rounds?
even if they stop attacking, I want to shoot everyone in the group at least 2 times
You shoot them when they're standing in a line. One round of .357 will go thru 5 guys. My buddy at gun store said he saw it happen once and the ATF made him sign a non-disclosure agreement about it. Thats why the government is pushing for 9mm in everything.
you mean like the Goetz shooting where a pack of people got fended off by a dude in the subway with just a 5 shot revolver?
Maybe he hasn't heard of that one, but I bet he's heard of the Rittenhouse shooting in which only 8 shots were fired between two separate encounters (4 and 4) as he was being attacked by multiple assailants.
Do you want to take your chances with only five shots too? People have killed deer with 22LR, doesn't make it a good idea.
>Do you want to take your chances with only five shots too?
Anon, you realistically have at most a 4% chance of even firing your gun should you get into a self defense scenario. The chances of being in one of the extremely rare outlier scenario where having more than what was the standard for concealed carry for most of the last century might make a difference, especially if you practice regularly, is so incredibly small that your time is better spent doing shit like picking a vehicle based solely on safety features or otherwise doing things best associated with hating fun with a passion if you're actually that concerned for your safety.
I actually have a dangerous lifestyle though. I've already brandished weapons in self-defense multiple times. I've seen guys get jumped by carloads of gang bangers multiple times.
Have you considered moving?
I'm an escortcel so I'm rubbing shoulders with drug addicts and gang members constantly. I'm just going to move somewhere even worse to frick more girls. I think I actually pissed off the triads.
My great grandpa once killed some mafia guy in his youth, he came after him for messing with his girl and shot him. Hid out at a friend's for a while after.
Anyway by the time he was middle aged he shot himself in the face on the front porch, you might be fricked dude. Tell my ancestors I said hi.
I'm going to kill myself too once my body breaks down too much. There's basically no real healthcare in America anymore. Once I get some life altering disability or disease I'm just going to go shoot myself in the woods somewhere, maybe try to do something to help humanity first. I'm hoping to at least have another 20 years of acceptable health.
Then you’re an escalating idiot and your death will be on your own hands.
Why do you think it takes more 'time' to carry and practise with a glock rather than a revolver? Carrying a modern pistol doesnt preclude you from taking all those other steps to help ensure your own safety.
>Why do you think it takes more 'time' to carry and practise with a glock rather than a revolver?
Anon, the most effective gun, given how self defense cases actually play out, is the one you want to go to the range with regularly, which comes down to personal preference. The idea that your gun choice significantly matters beyond that is marketing bullshit.
>Anon, the most effective gun, given how self defense cases actually play out, is the one you want to go to the range with regularly, which comes down to personal preference. The idea that your gun choice significantly matters beyond that is marketing bullshit.
This is the way and I'm tired of mall ninjas expecting people to pretend otherwise.
I'd honestly consider carrying a 22 LCR
So would I, because you get ten rounds and solid reliability, also very lightweight. That's basically the only .22 I'd carry for self defense. Self defense isn't deer hunting though.
I only carry my revolver because I want to see what a 45lc does to a face
i liek 45 too
with .45 I only need one shot
if whatever's attacking me doesn't fall over after six shots of .357 I wasn't making it out anyway
Bud, we're an ANTI-TANK squad, put that thing away and carry the fricking TOW tripod, you dumbfrick.
I kneel and accept my death
what do you do against 7 attackers?
>carrying only one revolver
Who the frick even reloads?
in the thumbnail I thought the fricking pendant on his hat was a smaller flintlock
>self defense situation causes adrenaline dump
>fine motor control goes to shit and by extension so does accuracy
>reloading becomes that much harder if you need to
Yeah, I’d rather have the insurance of another seven rounds, personally.
>fine motor control goes to shit and by extension so does accuracy
Have you considered actually practicing? People like to point to cops when claiming your accuracy will drop off, but most cops get in jack shit for practice, and their qualification scores them on how may times they can even hit the target with standards so low that they will normally pass cops so long as they can hit at least 4/5 times.
becomes that much harder if you need to
Self defense cases that required a reload don't exist.
How exactly do you “practice” life and death self defense scenarios with the adrenaline dump that comes with them, anon?
>Self defense cases that required a reload don’t exist
Don’t care, won’t matter if you whiff your 6 and the other guy(s) hasn’t left.
>How exactly do you “practice” life and death self defense scenarios with the adrenaline dump that comes with them, anon?
I don't think you got that posters point. The idea that your adrenaline will dump and ruin your shooting ability is a fricking meme. The vast majority of civilian world shootouts involve people who barely practice.
>my butthole has seen more hot loads
>proceed to strip and goatsee him
>he begins to eat my ass in a strange and erotic hatefrick session
My last 4 carry guns listed, from oldest to most recent:
>.38 snub
>9mm doublestack
>full size .38
>a different 9mm doublestack
I'm fine with either, most pistol calibers perform about the same and the first shot or two will probably scare off any grouped-up nogs (no homie wants to chance that he'll die for the contents of an armed white guy's wallet). Most gripes I have about handguns involve what they're actually made of and how little it takes to prevent one from NDing into you or someone you care about.
Also reloads aren't really necessary for EDC as far as the stats go (not a single SD shooting involved reloading, it was over before that), but I've never not carried one anyway, always had an extra mag or moon clip. I don't really care what people do in that regard either way.
>homies really be out here street walking without at least 4 different revolvers
You deserve what may come to you.
Practice with a good single action revolver like pic related and you will get the first shot off guaranteed
SAA in-particular points the best, has unmatched ergos, and its cartridge is more than enough to the the most of each shot
>but muh reloading
Being able to selectively reload individual bullets is superior with training as opposed to having to perform a full reload
If you want to be a true gunfighter, get an SAA and practice, it's the one gun that truly rewards mastery of the art
SAA are for handlets, if you can’t hold a Whopper without looking like a little boy, buy an SAA, if you have actual man hands, buy literally anything else that was wasn’t designed for 1880s manlets.
>doesn't know how to grip a plow handle properly
Maybe not, but I can grip your little sister and plow her.
My little sister is seven you sick frick
I know.
Hickok shoots them just fine and he's an actual giant
But what if I need only one? Hearing is for pussies anyway
>to make the most of each shot*
But anon that’s a five shot revolver. You’re one short.
is .357 actually a good round? Not in comparison to like 9mm or some other semi-auto cartridge. Like what is the main pros of .357 compared to other cartridges? Apparently its not even that great at stopping humans?
Isn't .357 widely considered to be pointless in EDC situations? However, isn't .38 just 9mm but in revolver caliber? So if you are carrying .38 why not just carry 9mm? That is the kind of logic I was thinking about. I personally would still just carry .357 or .38.
Yes, one of the most versatile rounds around. A jack of all trades and master of none(anymore) Don’t let anyone lie to you about the short barrel meme either. It’s worth it to carry if you feel more comfortable carrying a revolver.
anon it's rude to point a gun at your wife
It's a great round. It's plenty powerful without being something that can be difficult for most folks to control.
your bait isn't catching that much, but be patient
fishing is an art.
Apparently back in the 70s and 80s they were popular for counter terror stuff because they didn't have flash suppressing powder so it was like a flashbang with a .38 behind it, and if you were close enough the flames would actually enter the wound channel
Grandpa, our US SOLDIERS used a 1911 with more than 6 rounds to PROTECT our FREEDOMS. If you don't see the use in more rounds we'll you're just a COMMIE
that's perfectly acceptable for single attackers, but what about groups?
That's why I carry 23+1 in the gun with two more mags of 23 and one mag of 30
What are you firing into, a fricking mob?
not with that attitude
ok boomer
