Where do you guys keep your clearing bucket? I personally prefer my basement next to all my Funkos and vintage PS2 collection.

I keep it next to my bed so I can magdump my carry piece at the end of the day. That way I can fill it with fresh ammo and make sure my springs don't get worn out from being compressed all the time.
Just unload it moron
I don't need a clearing bucket since I'm not moronic.
SPBP
Why the hell you would need a bucket full of sand to clear your weapon properly?! Just don't put your finger on the trigger and nothing bad will happen!
shut the frick up moron
No arguments, eh? Thought so.
Bucketgays like you should never touch a gun, let alone shoot one lest they hurt yourselves and other people.
The people you think you're making fun of, were making fun of the bucket the whole time. Based dummy.
Lick nuts
> "homie dont get it's a joke" This b***h gotta be small
the one insult PrepHole got me to roll at, cheers
Some old guns are untrustworthy when chambered. I've had many accidental discharges with an old Galesi. it keeps me on my toes.
Just never load it.
It's so fun to shoot though. I ankle carry it too.
Post PS2 collection? I have a hesco full of sand
But you are
>But you are
Cope and seethe moron kun
In my bedroom. It also functions as my cum bucket (for my cum) and bullets enhance the flavor (of my cum)
Under my desk for desk pops when I forget to pull the mag before clearing the chamber.
>ps2
>vintage
Fricking zoomers
That’s the joke. OP is trying to conflate zoomer culture and their idea that the PS2 is “retro” with clearing buckets. Follow my blog for more context tips
>and their idea that the PS2 is “retro”
It is.
It's a quarter of a century old.
PS2s are great, not really seeing the joke
They are heading towards 25 years old so yeah but retro/vintage is millenial bullshit anyway.
Post your PS2 collection then
They are useful to have. Do US patrol bases not use them?
Neither of you know about fireforming cases for reloading then because you will need something like a bucket of sand to do that in your garage as well. This thread seems to me to be one for people who want to be sneering c**ts but don't know enough about the subjects to be anything other than just c**ts. I was thinking though when I use my hesco of sand most, lots of reasons, clearing blocked barrels in percussion muzzleloaders using compressed air all that kind of stuff you don't know about but actually mainly fireforming brass for guns I've been working on (more stuff you don't know about). yes the British Army uses a clearing bucket on return from patrol each soldier has to pint the weapon into it and clear it. If you are working on guns its a very very good idea to have a pile of sand or big bag of sand for the same reason. I'm guess you don't work on guns. Also PS2s were great.
> Do US patrol bases not use them?
The US patrol bases and armories tend to have armor steel bullet traps instead of sand buckets. They allow you to stick the muzzle in the port and reduce the noise if an error is made.
> fireforming cases for reloading then because you will need something like a bucket of sand to do that in your garage as well.
I fire form by loading normal ammo and shooting it recreationally.
Do not use your shitting bucket, fricking sprays that shit everywhere even if you were using cat litter instead of sand
next to my battlestation for high level shitposting
Clearing buckets are reddit shit like trigger discipline
You know what's Reddit? Not having a clearing bucket in every room of your house.
> 22LR. strikes again
This is why we need come on sense gun control.
>.45 AARP according to boomers
Did you know that people on reddit breathe? You should try not doing that since you don't want to be like reddit
Dont you have funko pops to buy you stupid redditor. Guns are too complex and "scary" for the likes of you
Nah I'm too busy actually owning and shooting guns. Let me guess, you came to this site for /misc/ in 2016, and either don't own any guns, or the only guns you own are a poverty pony AR and/or a PSA Dagger or other knock-off G19, which you use exclusively to mag dump into trash at 5 yards?
How do you clear a loaded musket?
>Inb4 in the back of a Spaniards head
You pull the bullet out, but shooting it is just so much easier
You can use compressed air cans, usually.
>he doesn't use a clearing log in his clearing sink
Not gonna make it.
the window facing my neighbors is my clearing bucket
Real ones remember the clearing log.
For all these memes about clearing buckets, I’ve never actually found out what a clearing bucket is. Is it a literal bucket with water in it for the sole purpose of aiming your gun at it while you clear it? Is that literally it?
You shoot your mag into it until you are out of bullets.
It’s a bucket of sand and you point your gun at it if you need to administratively pull the trigger of a gun you believe to be unloaded (eg to disassemble a Glock for cleaning and lubrication).
They are a meme for someone who isn’t doing this kind of shit all day and getting distracted because it’s a job and not part of your enjoyable hobby.
>They are a meme for someone who isn’t doing this kind of shit all day and getting distracted because it’s a job and not part of your enjoyable hobby.
This. I've only seen this kind of thing actually used in one scenario and that's at big box gun stores like Sportsman's and Scheels where you have total fricking moron employees handling guns that the somehow even dumber customers have brought in. In that context they absolutely make sense.
They come standard in every British base patrols are run out of because they are the safest way to clear but you know better.
They are an important fixture in every armory too (though they tend to use armor steel bullet traps instead of buckets of dirt). Soldiers and cops also fall into the “dipshit counting the minutes until his first post work beer and not paying attention” category. They make sense if guns are your job. If guns aren’t your job, they are only important for morons.
Its called my back yard
On my 3rd floor apartment balcony. My neighbor also has one. Every night, we see who can magdump three mags the fastest. Be it our carry pieces, ARs, whatever milsurp we have...
Unrelated. I have also been keeping tabs on the local property value. I've noticed it going down since I moved into the area. Odd...
I also live in an apartment, but I just use my floor. Keeps my downstairs neighbors in check. Though come to think of it, I haven't heard from them in a while...
I think it'd be nice to have a clearing bucket/barrel for trying to diagnose/smith a malfunctioning firearm. I mostly shoot suppressed anyways and am trying to get a MKIV 22/45 running smoothly, the process would be a lot easier if I could just walk into the garage and magdump into a barrel instead of driving to the range.
Sorry, this post is not about Ukraine. Delete please.
In your mom's panties
I own my home therefore my yard. No bucket needed.
I keep an ATF agent chained in the basement
my head is on top od my neck
>clearing bucket
Clearing log chads rise up.
is that a dead squirrel pelt next to the trash
Only poors use a clearing buckets.
I replaced the floor in every room of my house with a layer of sand so now I can clear my gun anywhere I want.
I genuinely don't know what a clearing bucket is. Is this something used for malfunctions or dropping the trigger safely?

It’s a “safe direction” for someone who is administratively pulling a trigger. It’s only necessary for people who are doing enough administrative trigger pulls that it’s not reasonable for them to have a perfect record of never failing to check the chamber before performing the administrative trigger pull, like armorers who are dealing with thousands of weapons a day.
For someone who cleans a couple of guns after a weekly range trip or who has to periodically take down and lube a carry piece to prevent rust, they should not be needed, and if you don’t need to pull the trigger to strip your guns (ie you’re not shooting striker fired pistols), they are even more unnecessary because there’s no reason to administratively pull the trigger on any of your guns.
It’s performative safety for 99% of people, and completely unnecessary.
I use the Black person children chained in my basement as a clearing bucket.
