How does your family react to you having guns?

Personally
>family used to not care
>after Orlando, several family members including my own mother said I'm a "terrorist sympathizer" for supporting the NRA
>dad is chimping out, and turned-in all his guns (which I bought him) to his local police station for destruction
>half my family is circlejerking on Occupy Democrats posts saying that "assault weapons" and all semi-automatic rifles should be banned
>try debating it, they block and remove me as a friend
>uncle said I'm never allowed at his house unless I get rid of my guns

How does your family react to gun ownership? Does it get worse around mass shootings and terrorist attacks?

Tell them they are radical Islamic sympathizers and report them o suspicious of terroristic activities to your nearest police station or send off a tip to the FBI.

Fuck your family they should have their arms and legs broken and fed to fire ants alive for being psychopaths like that.

But no seriously though just accuse them of sympathizing the radical Islamic movement and report them of terroristic activities.

That is shit. My family is so-so my father is all for them so are off of my uncles and both grand fathers. A lot of military in my family. My kid sister asked if I was a terrorist I told her no and she should come with me to shoot sometime she seems very excited. Her half ass wop of a father would be a bitch though.
>>
>>30260711
I told them I don't agree with their opinions, but I'd protect them if need be.

My auntie said "if you're willing to kill anybody at all, you're part of the problem."

30 minutes later she also said "Why couldn't have this happened at a Trump rally? At least he would've done something useful instead of killing innocents."

>>30260729
Worst part is my family is mainly ex-mil or LEO. So they think they're automatically experts on all things gun-related.

>>30260687
My family bemoans the fact that they're so expensive, but I can't seem to get it through their heads that the 90s are dead and money isn't worth shit anymore.
>"You spent a grand? On a 308? I'd never spend that much on a rifle"
>"What about that Browning BAR?" (The hunting rifle, not the mil one)
Still haven't gotten a response out of him on that one. He also owns a Thompson center contender, a Benelli SBE II, some Benelli I can't remember the model of that was imported by HK...

I'm working on it. I had to drop-out of high school because of medical issues, despite being on track to Cornell. I just finished my GED and I'm waiting on my SAT/ACT scores to come back.

My mother absolutely hates it, calls me crazy on a regular basis. My father likes guns but is kind of a fudd. Doesn't like ARs etc.

Everyone in my extended family is vehemently antigun. no one has disowned me yet though.

but it seems like she's one of the few that realized the orlando shooter was a licenced security guard who went through several screenings, i pointed out he could have easily gotten it job related, pointed out Wa naval yard was a pump gun, SHOULD have mentioned Ft Hood. I don't expect to completely turn her, but I'll keep reminding her they could just as easily have bombed/arsoned a place and "mass shootings" are extremely far down the list of how people are killed

Gotta take the good with the bad I suppose. At least I have memories of building baby's first AR with my pops and the SKS he handed down to me, plus the 4 generation old family .22
>>
Mother wouldn't allow me even a fucking air rifle. Turned 18, joined a shooting club and bought myself a .22 rifle & pistol.
Dad is cool about it, took him shooting. It's just not in his interest.
Brother sees no point in buying weapons :" You already have enough stuff for a small army- I'm going to use the back-up of your back-up."
( We live in the same house)
Huge parts of the family are leftist dumbfucks.
Blaaa weapons are only good for murderers etc.
Typical bullshit.
Have about 15 cousins. Most of the males are useless. The only ones which took interest are twin girls at the age of 14.
Their mother is totally against funs ( liberal teacher...) , but the two can keep their mouth shut and train them with .22s.

Nothing can replace male best friends/shooting buddies/ hunting buddies.

Given how they treated me off-and-on in the past, I just see this as the strawthat broke the camel's back. Back then, I didn't want to say anything since I was underageb& and lived with my entire family. Now that I'm on my own, I pretty much milked them for what I could one last time and left. Thanks to them, I have a free car and phone. They even gave me $10k to get started with an apartment, clothes, find a job, etc. I lived like a frugal jew and have been spending that money on guns and car modifications.

This happened to me after sandyhook. So its smooth sailing for me. Got rid of fb, and other social media, dont go to family functions. And have been with a country girl with an extremely pro gun family for 10 years now. Family is what you make it.

>>30260687
The more I read stuff like this, the more I think people are legitimately scared of me. I was hanging out with some outspoken anti-gun fags yesterday (they're my friends and it's my birthday, we had a get together) and only one of them said something about Orlando, and suggested harsher laws regulating the purchase of firearms. I told him that it wouldn't make much of a difference, as Omar bought his guns legally, was a US citizen, and had no criminal background, he'd have just waited a few more days to shoot up a club. I didn't think anything of it at the time, but he kind of drew up, paused, and said, "Well, maybe you're right anon," and changed the subject. A guy that posts a bunch of crazy, outspoken shit constantly, mind you. I've been thinking about it and I've noticed it's a trend. Most of my friends are hesitant to disagree with me, or even discuss politics or anything like that.

How common is the reaction in OP's post then? I'm not an angry guy, ex-mil, work in a bank now, own a healthy collection of guns, don't wear flag patches or moto shirts, don't broadcast that I carry. Do people commonly react the way OP's family did, or is it more of an exception? Because now I'm legitimately worried that my friends are scared of me, I don't want to be that guy. I like debating and calm, rational discourse, won't engage in mud slinging, buzzwords or sensationalist arguments.

Am I the "crazy disgruntled Iraqi war vet" /k/?

It's really the textbook definition of a phobia.

Since I became a hunter and acquired an actual gun license (feels Euro, man) she absolutely wouldn't have my gun safe in the house, which I have to respect. Now that's at a fellow hunters', my guns are afew minutes away but I still have my own and I'll move out in the near future.

All "liberals" I know will tell this same joke. Pretty much almost verbatim, the punchline is always the same about people they disagree with politically.

My dad used to hunt a lot before he met my mother.
he stopped a few years into his marriage with her.
for my 18th, i bought myself a wasr10 and took him shooting with me
less than a year later he asked me about ARs and the like
shortly after that he had me organize a list of parts and build one for him.

going shooting with him is the most i've interacted with him in my life. he was a busy man and spent 12+ hours a day working all my childhood.
my mom, sadly, is a mindless progressive with vehement support of hate-speech regulation and gun bans and Hillery. oh well, i still love her.

My brother is very pro gun, owns maybe 20 fewer than me. My dad owns a single shot 20 gauge that my brother and I got him for his birthday one year. Otherwise they probably don't see much need for them but they aren't against them as far as I'm aware. My dad will go to range gatherings with my friends and I but usually won't shoot. I'm sure they think I waste too much money.

As far as extended family, I don't talk to them enough to know. I've got a pro gun uncle but he just laughs and shakes his head after I tell him how much I paid for a gun (he always asks). He has a few, mainly hunts and has his carry permit. His brother is pro gun and pretty much a communist, I have much respect for his brother though.

I do have some anti's in the family but I only see them at funerals.

Most antis tends to hang out in an echo chamber. They just parrot what they read on FB, Tumblr and other anti-gun outlet. Bet that dude you talked to doesn't realized much of what you told him. Bet his go to arguments consists of more background check and banning stuff.
>>
>>30261840
He didn't argue with me is the point. Hardly anyone aside from my wife does, and she'll tell you that we don't have "fights" because when shit gets too heated I make us stop and come back later. I don't really care to rip apart some bullshit that antis come up with, but I like to debate. I think they're too scared to voice their opinions, and it bothers me a little.

And, no, he had no idea that Omar bought his gun completely legally from a gun store. The thought never occurred to him I'll bet.

this is why I don't tell anyone or put stupid NRA bumper stickers on my car. there is 0 benefit to doing so and only negatives.

I don't need my house broken into and robbed or someone keying my car because of a bumper sticker. when people say guns are evil I just smile and nod but I will usually point out incorrect statistics and show it to their face with my phone if they press the issues. converts more people than talking about the morality or entitlements, anyways.

Great-grandpa has a two safes with a combined total of over 100 guns. ww2 vet, has shit ton of lever actions, semi autos, shotguns, and pistols. Builds his own ARs and owns 1 full-auto Thompson he brought back from Korea. Also has a Type 99 Arisaka. Lives in commiefornia, surprisingly.

Did you lose your fathers in orlando or something OP? what a bunch kf faggots.

Both of my parents don't mind, and my mother wants me to teach her, so she can protect herself (she used to cite stories about how kids taught their parents to shoot and then their parents survived a home invasion or something), a bit more pro-fun. My father isn't into the idea of having guns personally, but does other security things (reinforced doors, better deadbolts, cameras/motion detectors, the sort) but towards me is generally supportive, as long as I practice proper storage. They primarily worry that I'll be lazy with my gun and then my future kid will accidentally off someone, due to me leaving legos out and about the house when I was a kid.


My extended family is pretty anti, but my immediate family is effectively estranged due to the extended family being a bunch of busybodies and nosy gossips.

>Both parents are Viet Nam war refugees
>>
Wife is a center-left liberal who mostly hates guns because she associates them with her father, and that's never good.

I don't know if she'll ever be okay with semi-auto mag-fed weapons like a Glock or an AR, but she openly wants to try trap and skeet shooting.

My current goal is to feed her pinterest walls of classy British ladies in hunting gear, buy some land in a few years, convert her to a fudd, and see where we can go from there.
>>
My entire family is pro gun. The ones who don't own aren't against.
Uncle buys unborn grandson bb gun for my cousins baby shower.
No, we are not white trash
>>
>>30260687
My family doesn't care I own guns.
My mom is probably the worst but her thing is she just doesn't like being around them. Releasing slides or letting bolts slam home get her nerves racked which is understandable because she. She was little my grandfather had an ND in the room with her. All that said she thinks law abiding citizens should have guns, even ar15s and such.
My grandpa is based. Yeah he had an ND 35 years ago but he became very safety conscious because of it.
Me and him went hog hunting last Christmas as my birthday/Christmas present, we packed our pistols and took turns carrying the 45-70 Marlin (I carried it when he didn't need it lol like a good grandson)
My grandmother keeps a loaded 357 on her because "those damn Mexicans" she lives in Arizona as you can tell.
My brothers and sisters aren't quite old enough to have opinions but none are anti gun so that's a win.
Overall i think I'm lucky.
>>
>>30260687
My family tells me to CC and buy more guns and ammo. I actually converted my parents into minor gun nuts a few years ago.

>>30262396
Teach her safety, then teach her etiquette. She's scared for her life right now, she's probably not going to be ordering bulk AR lowers anytime soon. Show her how to operate safely, run through some reaction drills (if your range allows) and encourage her to begin carrying.

Don't look at it as a trip to the range, look at it for what it is; a potential for you to teach your mother something that may save her life. She'll probably quit going after a few times anyways when the shock and outrage has died down.

But Anon, just because you can shoot a gun doesn't mean you aren't a dumbass. Just saying. You are 18. We've all been there. Relatively speaking, your self now is a dumbass compared to yourself later. When your brain is fully developed and you have more experience.

And they want to use their guns for something practical and fun. You are fantasizing about being an operator or something like a roof korean.

You could do that with a fudd gun. You'll probably just get your ass shot or beaten to death by a mob of niggers if you try and face them down on your own with ANY gun you can get.

You and a bunch of your good old boy Fudd family members with plain old deer rifles and Bair guns for dealing with big animals getting on you will wreck them.

Those types tend to get all their information from sensationalist headlines and other types of disinformation. I've noticed vehement anti-gunners tend to shutdown when speaking to someone who a) knows what they're talking about and b) presents their facts in a calm and respectful manner. To sum it up, most people like that will only argue back if they're facing off with a literal fudd stereotype over the internet.

Dad is getting more pro gun too, I just think he takes extra caution with me having them because I'm his son. He's not nuts about shooting on a count of his bad eye sight. He keeps a metal pellet gun for geese though. Debating buying him a shotgun or a pistol just for gigs.

Parents got divorced when I was 8 or so, lived with mom mostly. grew up on a few acres and mom would let all of us have bb guns and potato guns at a young age. Every day after school me and brothers would spend a couple hours farting around in the woods shooting shit with bb guns. first 22 at age 14 and first AK at 15. She isnt really against guns but doesnt like them personally. I cant even convince her to keep a simple revolver or shotgun tucked away in her home.

Dad never really liked guns at all. He's only been camping outside once in his life and when he goes fishing, its a charter where you just pick up a pole and reel it in while the mate does the rest.

younger brother was never really into guns. he had a few guns but probably never put more than a hundred rounds through any one. They're mine now because he lost his shit and went bat shit crazy for the better part of three months. no more guns for him.

older brother isnt anti gun but he's never fired a gun in his life, says he is afraid of them and why own one, when will you ever NEED it? not anti, but not pro.

Then there is me.

>>30260687

My dad doesn't care
Mom doesn't like guns but is okay with me owning guns because I'm not crazy. Doesn't agree with cc or OC though

Sister likes guns despite being a progressive liberal
Uncle owns several nfa items, progun as fuck
Grampa is a fudd so no assault weapons
Aunt is a quaker so she is morally opposed to owning weapons

Similar situation with me, I have a brother with a learning disability so since they were extra concerned, my father offered to split the cost of the safe with me and help me secure it to the floor.

>How does your family react to you having guns

The family members that do know about my guns either don't care or seem pretty positive about it.

Parents were both firearm owners in the past (most got sold off/given away around the time I was born though, which is a crying shame). Sister doesn't care for firearms, but doesn't see me or anyone else as a horrible menace for owning one.

Uncles and grandfather on dad's side were all island hicks who remember being able to pick up .22's at the local shop to kill varmint/cans/people's outdoor lighting with them, don't really mind me packing anything with more power.

Mums side of the family is on and off about it, but most are pretty cool with it due to her family having a huge history with sport shooting/hunting/enjoying guns in general. Grandmother on that side did sell off all of my grandfather's collection when he passed though (she didn't know what to do with them all, nobody on her side wanted them and my old man didn't have any room for it at the time. Again, crying shame).

So yeah, I'd say about 80% of them are positive with it, 19% couldn't care less one way or another, and 1% would despise me for it.

Sorry about you having a shit family bro, I'm kind of in the same boat, most of my mom's side of the family are ultra liberal. Do what I did, forget about them, they have nothing to offer you couldn't get somewhere else, you don't need them in your life if all their going to do is make you feel bad over one of your favorite hobbies, and a constitutional right. Sorry for the rant.

You were having a rational discussion. When they meme like that, it's a lot like your average /pol/tard shitposting about gassing the Jews, they do it when they are working themselves into a froth and playing to an audience that expects extremist shit.

If the liberal never gets any exposure to dissent, the frothy meme-ing can become actual belief/strongly held positions, but that's the danger on an echo chamber (and one of the reasons I make a point to check the news at sources I disagree with).

Both my parents come from either military or LEO families. They aren't pro-gun but at the same time they aren't ant-gun... mainly in the sense that they think some laws are stupid while others need to be reinforced.
>>
My gf/potential waifu saw me browsing /k/ once (I'm a noguns fag until I get my gun license and buy an SKS, and even then I couldn't keep it in my apartment because it isn't safe so it would need to be kept at my mum's next to my stepdad's 30-30) and complained about "why do you like guns, you don't need a gun, that's so weird you could kill people etc etc".

I tried to explain but she wasn't having any of it and apparently I'm not allowed either guns OR swords. Neither is her dad, I blame her mother.

Anyway, is taking he shooting with my stepdad and his 30-30 a good idea to get her more comfortable around guns? I want to make sure I can live the way I want to, with guns n shieet, before I propose to her in the future.

if private sale is illegal in your state then yeah, guns are kind of a poor use of money if you're strapped for cash.

This thread is mildly related to a question I've been thinking over for a while.

I live alone in an apartment so no worries about angry mothers (although I'm sure she would be) but I have no idea what my landlord would think if she found a bunch of guns and ammo in my closet. I have no reason to suspect she's ever entered my apartment without asking a few days in advance, but theres always a chance.

I don't think buying a safe is an option since I don't have the room for it, am on the top floor of my building, and wouldn't be able to sneak it in on the off chance they do care. When I buy a house (hopefully with some land for shooting but >finding land that isn't cropland in Iowa) I want to put in some of those tacticool walls and such but I don't want to go knocking holes in walls that aren't mine.

What do? Chain them to a bedframe or something?
>>
>>30266266
idk about Iowa, but in MN, your landlord has no say whether you can have firearms in your unit, due to it being a constitutional right.

Look into those braid type locks that snake through the chamber, most are long enough to chain them to something else.
>>
>>30266266
I don't think it's legal for a landlord to enter a private residence without warning.

Also, this reminds me, I left my AR in the trunk.

>>30266305
Considering in Iowa "no guns allowed on premises" signs don't hold any legal weight, I'm sure it's fine. I'm only planning on staying here until my lease is up in a year or maybe one more after that depending on what kind of land it's looking like I'll be able to afford.

It's more of if they just flip out over it and won't let me resign the lease should I want to stay another year. I got damn lucky with this apartment since it's cheap and near stores but on the side of town that doesn't have transplanted Chicagoan refugees shooting at each other 2/3 times a week.

>>30266322
It's more if they just enter by accident desu. When I was getting my tour of the place they almost opened the door to an occupied apartment by mistake. Once or twice I've given them permission to enter for some maintenance work and just wouldn't want the guy to get too nosy or need to check the closet for some reason and see an AR just sitting there.

I'm not sure if you're implying that's a good thing or a bad thing. It's becoming more and more liberal (we're projected to vote for Killary...) but the gun laws aren't as restrictive as in some neighboring states.Getting my ccw permit was easy as shit.

And I like my lung capacity too much to smoke anything, be it tobacco pot or dick.

Dad just bought me a Kahr CW40.

Mom supports carrying but doesn't do it herself. Good excuse to buy handguns and say its for her. Try to get her to carry a revolver in her purse.

Family of non shooters here. 17 y/o and ask Mom and Dad for rifle and constantly shot down. Finally based grandma buys me a Mosin back when they were still <100. That was 4 years and now there are 12 guns in the house and all but two are mine (bought little brother a .22 rifle and .38 S&W mod 10 and now he's the only one who shoots with me).

Dad asked me about buying a handgun for self defense a while back and I just instinctively told him Glock 19. Still waiting to see if he follows through on that.

>Patches from Brother in Law, always had a common bond over vidya, especially MGS

>Mag pouches from Wife, had shitty Army issued pouch before that sucked ass
Great birthday all in all.

>Mom wants a carry piece, but won't get one b/c her hands are too weak to rack a slide (she has a very severe case of MS) and doesn't feel safe carrying a revolver, but is bretty pro-gun
>Dad is a Nam Vet, hates the AR platform with a burning passion and owns several fudd guns, but is genuinely interested in older Battle Rifles (Buying him an M1A this year)
>Bro and sis, both younger, indifferent about guns. They don't see them as anything more than a hobby
>Grandparents on both sides are fudd as fuck, only own 22s or pump shotguns, but don't care about me owning guns.
>Only surviving aunt and uncle, on dad's side, have mixed opinions. Aunt used to be a full-blown hippie and consistently votes Dem, but she loves me enough to even feign interest in my guns. Uncle served in the RAF during the Cold War, moved to Canada and then to here (TN) with my aunt. Hates Slavshit of any kind, and doesn't particularly like firearms, but won't discuss them with me because he thinks that mine and his opinions on the matter differ too much, and might lead to a falling out if discussed. Total bro-tier tho. Both are avid PC gamers, and they give me all their old shit when they get new stuff. Both full time workers with no kids, so they have a lot of money to throw around.

my dad showed me some of his guns when i was like 10, and then bought me a bb gun but that was it. i never went shooting with him until i was probably 27.

when i was 18 i was living with a sketchy roommate and brought my AK to my parents to hold onto and my dad thought it was cool but my mom went full retard and said it was illegal and get it out of her house and tell her who sold it to me all this shit. i ended up selling it because i had nowhere to keep it.

when i was 20 i moved back in with my mom because her and the pops got divorced. i bought a shotgun and like a dumbass, told her, and she made me keep it in the safe. im assuming because she didnt trust me enough. but for my 21st birthday she bought me a 1911.

about 2 years ago i built an AR and showed it to my dad, who only had pistols and fuddguns. he built his own afterwards.

ive gone shooting with him a dozen or so times and he knows i fucking CC everywhere, but he still acts weird when im around his guns like im gonna pick one up and pop him with it. like the last time i went over to his house he was showing me some macked out AR pistol he built for bedside. drops the mag, hands me the pistol and is telling me about it and how he was some crazy HD 223 rounds for it. so im like oh let me see, and motion for him to hand me the mag. he stands there and kind of hesitates like im going to load it and blow him away on the spot. he did the same thing one time we went to the range. ive never shot a revolver before and after i was done i was trying to eject the casings and couldnt quite figure out that little plunger thing. so im leaning over the front of the bench and trying to figure it out and hes all WHATR U DOING!!!!! like im going to shoot myself in front of him at the range.

He's just being a Dad man, you're always going to be his son and he's always going to feel protective. I'm 30, was infantry for 8 years, and my Dad still does that shit when we go to the range.
>"You unloaded your pistol right Anon?" (The indoor range we use doesn't allow you to bring in loaded guns, I've been going there for 5 years now)
>"Careful with that son, it's got some kick to it," (I own the exact same gun and shoot it all the time)
>"Careful son, it's loaded," (Handing me a gun that I literally just watched him load)
I just smile and say thanks, it's a little silly but I'll always be the baby of the family,

I got this response a lot from my dad. I think it was more a compromise between him going hunting with his dad when he was little, and my mom being from Chicago suburb and a daughter of a WW2 vet. They have loosened up a bit now because I'm older, but neither of them show a strong interest.
Point is, it gets better anon. They respect your decisions more when you grow more independent.

i texted my dad this morning and told him to stock up, texts me back a few minutes later he just bought another 1k box of 223.

Different anon here, but I get it, you want to respect her opinions, but if she doesn't respect your hobbies or interests that's a bit of deal breaker if you are planning on getting married. Take her shooting and if it doesn't work out, look for a different person, not a different hobby, it causes more issues than it solves in the long run. You will have plenty of things to argue about with your spouse, you don't need make any unnecessary additions to the list.

My family is a little diverse and different parts of it have widely varying opinions about firearms.

Half of my family is white, middle class British citizens from rural England who subsequently have laughably uninformed, intensely fearful opinions about guns and then I also have a step family of well to do black people from metropolitan Atlanta?

There's this stark contrast between say, my brother who voted Liberal Democrats in the 2010 general election and thinks having the government inside your butthole 24/7 is better because it's "safer" and my uncle Sammy who came up with a genius way to conceal having an unauthorized afro during Vietnam and has more shotguns than I've ever seen anywhere other than a literal armory.
>>
My immediate family is perfectly fine with it. My parents think it's a bit weird at times, but they understand. My dad's the one who got a pellet gun for us when I was young, which is probably what sparked the interest. My sister is fine with it and so is her husband.

Extended family I'm not sure about, mostly because I don't think they know. But at the same time I don't really give a shit what they think about it. I have one uncle who I know also into guns. The first shotgun I ever fired was his. Damn near flew out of my hands.

As for my girlfriend, she grew up with guns so it's all good there. A bunch of people in her family are hunters too. Yay for country girls.

The only people I have to deal with when these sorts of events happen are some of my "friends" and co-workers. So really, I'm quite fortunate in that regard.

Not got any firearms yet. However my family encouraged my air rifles, longbow and such things.

Only time I had an issue was with a family member from my fathers side who, along with her kids, are in general a waste of space and couldn't live without TV, McDonalds and Facebook. That kind of person. The youngest son brought a nerf gun with him to a family BBQ on the farm. I was showing my better cousin my bow and letting him shoot it. His little 8 year old kid smile getting bigger and bigger. The kid with the nerf gun was looking over excitedly so I called him over, handed him my bow to take a look at. His drunk mother decided that wrong of me (a mother that let's him play call of duty games despite him being under 10). She grabbed some scissors from the meat table where my father had been opening packets of sausages and burgers, ran over and cut my bow string. Loud crack and a whipping sound. I was fucking furious.
>>
My mother is apathetic towards firearms at best, and nervous at worst, but she doesn't seem to disapprove of me owning them.

To quote:
>He's got a rifle on him, <stepdad's name>. I don't think there's much he's got to be worried about.

I suspect she's more worried about me ending up like my dad, who decided life was too hard and he needed to swallow a fatal dose of 30-30 when I was a year old.
