Hey guys, I'm a newfag when it comes to weapons, and I think it is about time I got a gun.

However, I am unsure where I should start.
I am thinking just a common police issue gun like a Glock 22, However I am unsure. I really just want something usable, because we all know a bullet is a fucking bullet.
Two questions, along with confirming/suggestions aside from a Glock,
Should I get a suppressor, and What kind of reaction should I have with a gun in the event of a home invasion? Should I still avoid killing if at all possible, such as aiming for disabling?
I know that's a moral question, but is it viable, could I disable someone reliably without having to risk them, or me, dying?

Suppressors need a $200 dollar tax stamp and ATF approval on top of the price of the suppressor.

Never shoot to wound. You'll get fucked in court even in a free state for shooting to wound.

>>31954446
Get a 9mm
>less recoil
>cheaper ammo
>more capacity

Yes go the proper route for a suppressor

Shoot to stop the threat

>Glock
Why are you buying a hand grenade?
>only 9m
No penetration 10mm is where it is at
ACTUAL ADVICE
Wait a bit for the suppressor until Trump gets into office, he says he will remove the tax stamp on suppressors. 9mm is a decent choice for beginners. Shoot to killin a home invasion because if they get wounded you will be sued.


In a home invasion you will be shaking like a baby.
I know this because I was in your position with a Mosin. greentaxt time

My grouping sucked...

I gave the Mosin to a museum that got a Soviet Uniform and I decided to help finish the display

When people stop by that museum the are looking at the gun that was held by me during the great autistic charge

Has he actually said anything about signing that legislation?

We need to start seriously pushing it if so.

Brilliant. Somehow, even though you acted like a total sperg, that sounds glorious.

How would a glock 17 fair then, should should I just drop glocks?

Any recommendations for handguns?

I would prefer to avoid revolvers and meme guns.
>>
>>31954446
Get the Glock 22, but instead of buying a silencer buy a 9mm barrel and some 9mm magazines. Also always shoot to kill because the last thing you want is the "victim" getting you put in jail because "he wasn doin' nuffin wrong" in your house.

Glocks are an enigma, there seems to be no one that thinks they're middle of the line. Everyone that has an opinion about them either thinks they're shit or loves them. That said I like glocks a lot, they're pretty reliable in my experience and feel nice in my hand.

I think they are middle of the line and I love them

Glocks are sort of the used Mossberg 500 of the handgun world. They're not the ultimate, top-of-the-line handgun with kickass ergonomics and flawless accuracy. But, they shoot well, they're reliable and relatively cheap, and there are mags and aftermarket parts in every LGS in the country.
>>
>>31954446
The standard /k/ answer to "hey what should I get for my first gun" is some sort of .22 rifle.

It'll teach you decent habits, the recoil isn't so sharp that you'll flinch and hate it, and ammo is relatively cheap enough for you to shoot regularly.

Any future purchases will depend on what you want one for.
>>
If you're just looking for your first gun, just buy a Ruger 10/22. Deadass reliable, cheap ammo, great product.

If you're looking to carry, buy a glock 19. Great round, great gun, great caliber.

If you want home defense, a Mossberg 500 would probably be the best bet.

All these are just really basic and standard firsts. Can't go wrong with any of them.

I haven't seen him say that, people are pulling shit out of their ass left and right.

He has said he'll roll back Obummer's EOs, so trusts will be great again.

>>31954915
I like them because they do everything adequately. Other guns are better in specific areas but I haven't found anything that averages out like Glocks. My perfect gun would be a USP with a 'murican style mag release.

Anon, it may appear that way here because of how attached and emotional people are to their purchases but it really is the standard in most people's opinions.

If I'm considering a handgun, I ask myself what areas it's stronger and weaker in compared to a glock or what niche it fits into and if it's different enough in the right areas I get it.

If you want to buy a first handgun for self defense, compare it to the glock in its size category. If you like it better then buy it, if you dont compare another, if the glock is better for you each time then buy the glock. It's never the wrong choice, it just may not be the perfect choice for some special snowflake people.

Those three are the epitome of CC.

Glock 19 or Glock 17
See which one fits your hand better, they both accept 17 round mags

I love my P30SK w/ LEM trigger for CC and I have a USP .45 on my night stand for home defence along with my all my other fire arms

My spare mags are full sized 15 rounders which is nice

>>31954446
always shoot to kill
if you have time to shoot to disable then your life was not in immediate danger and you had no justification to draw your weapon
>>
>>31954446
OP you shoot center mass until the target is on the ground and you only use hollow points. If you're afraid of killing someone you shouldn't CC because you might have to it's a serious responsibility.
