Ok /k/
I just bought a SKS, but my dad isn't comfortable having it in the same house as my ammo, so he wants to keep it at my uncle's house because he has a gun locker and all that jazz. How do I convince him to let me keep it in the house? Having to drive to my uncle's house 3 towns over whenever I want to go to the range doesn't sound very fun.
>>
>>32191915
how old are you? do you have little kids in the house? what country do you live in?/ some states require a safe for gun storage
>>
>>32191915
Buy a trigger lock or a lock box to keep the ammo in. I assume you're like 18/19 so just show him that you're responsible enough to keep the ammo in the house but stored safely.
>>
>>32191922
18. No little brothers/sisters, I'm the oldest one. US of A of course. Illinois, Crook County

Is your dad a cuck or are you a nutjob?
>>
>>32191915

Guns don't load themselves and fire, he doesnt trust you with a gun and ammo.


He thinks you might do something.
>>
>>32191950
Neither.
Although, my dad is a fudd. He doesn't really like anything that isn't a .22 or revolver, and thinks the SKS is a assault rifle. He only owns a .357 magnum, which he keeps at (take a guess) my uncle's house. He has explicitly told me that, although he loves the 2nd amendment, he doesn't really like guns that much.
>>32191973
I'm not an autist/suicidal. He says he trusts me, but doesn't exactly trust my friends. He is just scared that someone, somehow, will fuck up and brain themselves.
>>
>>32191997
>He doesn't really like anything that isn't a .22 or revolver, and thinks the SKS is a assault rifle.
Find stories of people deer hunting with SKSes to see if you can change his mind. If he sees that people have been durrhuntin with SKS for longer than the Remington 700 has existed it might change his mind.
>>
Get a lockbox and let your dad have a spare as a compromise?

Also let your dad shoot it sometime, maybe he'll have more of an interest or be more lenient.
Consider looking for your own place at some point.
>>
Send it to a gunsmith and have them work on it.
>You start a reloading press
Go get a double barrel shotgun
>Get sks / ak ammo insert
Never fire ammo and stockpile
>get a chronograph
Have match grade rifu / optic / leave house
Send the rifu away for a looong time but make daddy see all the ammo.
Basically daddy doesn't want a barrel in his face + old skool slav has vx communist look in his murican house
senpai I htink he want grease gun or tommy gun
>>
>>32192027
*spare key
>>
>>32192005
I'll try that, but neither of us are hunters (though I'd like to go hunting one day). When I bought some ammo the other day, he picked up a cartridge and said something along the lines of
>this is a HUGE bullet
The fudd is strong with him, even if he doesn't hunt.
>>
>>32192049
>this is a HUGE bullet
Show your old man a 30-06 round please.
>>
>>32192070
Or like, compare it to a round from his .357.

Get a wire cutting bipod / bottle cap opening

Move the fuck out and get your own place since your dad is such a faggot.
>>
>>32191940
>>32192087
If OP has graduated high school he should either get a job and move out, or store his funz at his uncle's place while he's away at college. If OP has not, then he's still his dad's dependent and dad ultimately makes the rules.
>>
>>32191915
get your own place: keep gun there.

>>32192049
Tell him the bullet used in the SKS is roughly comparable in performance and power to the old .30-30 Winchester round, which has been regarded as the "Happy Medium" of deer cartridges for over 100 years
>>
go out to a range with your dad and show him you are responsible. Once he is comfortable get a cheap metal locker you can put it in.

OP is 18, he's a grown ass man. I moved out when I was 16 and lived on my own since then. Don't like the rules, don't be a pussy and live by your own. Plus dad sounds like a hypocrite.

OP!

Buy a small safe and keep the bolt in it.

That's how the National Guard used to do it -- the guns would stay in the local armory, and the bolts would stay in a safe at the local sheriff's office.

brah UNCLE BUBBA IS GOING TO /K your sks he will play with it for a year and give you free mod.

OP do this: >>32192154

Depending on how much ammo you have, you can keep ammo in there, too.
>>
>>32192147
>>32192164
p-pls no that's not funny
>>32192154
That actually sounds like a really good idea. I'll talk to him about that.

Kek, my uncle is question was a marine who ALMOST went to nam
>>
>>32192202
Some day you should get a milled Norinco AK to show your uncle, he might get a kick out of that piece of Cold War history.

Ever go to the range with him?
>>
>>32192202
Also, re: "hurr durr big bullet"

Show him this chart. It's not every cartridge in the world, but it is a large percentage of them.

Your dad is a huge pussy.

he probably knows your friends are retarded skater potheads who are going to shoot themselves or you while you idiots horse around and play army and he doesnt want to deal with the impending lawsuits

just keep it under your bed with a crate of ammo like a responsible /k/ommando

i wish anon

>>32191997
OP, stop lying to yourself. Your dad is a cuck.
>>
>>32194014
I don't think so. He doesn't like guns very much, but he still believes in all the core principles of being american.
And he hates muslims too
>>
>>32194991
>he still believes in all the core principles of being american
no he doesn't, you're a cuck too.
>>
>>32195175

>>32191915
You have to accept that you're a cuck.
It's pumping through your veins.

Do us a favor, remove your bloodline.
>>
>>32192120
>>32192099
Its retarded to move out just to be able to keep a gun in the house. Op should just deal with it until hes financially independent or get rid of it.

>>32191915
Get a cheap $99 gun locker and bolt it to the floor.

>>32195377
>>32195388
small house, there isn't any room for a gun locker
>>
>>32195392
Stack-On 10 gun cabinet is not even two feet wide and weighs less than 70 pounds.

You could fit one in any living space.

thanks m8, i'll look into it
save a bit from some paychecks and I can get that
>>
>>32191915
I don't see problem here. You have SKS and he does not. You can do what you want.
>>
>>32191915
Ryan?

I thought you were a convicted felon?
>>
>>32195175
Couldn't have said it better myself
Why are we still in this thread
>>
>>32191915

Dude. Your dad is a felon and afraid of having it around. No one knows that he is except your uncle who is cool covering for his firearm hobby.
>>
>>32191915
His house, his rules.
>>
>>32192109
It's actually not all that comparable, quite a bit weaker.
Tell him that.
>>
>>32197370
This...is a very interesting hypothesis.

OP -- do a background check on your dad.
>>
>>32197370
>>32198116
My dad has a DUI under his belt from a few years back, but I don't think that gets you a felony.
Does it?
>>
>>32191915
He doesnt even trust himself with a gun in the house, what makes you think hes going to trust you? Keep it at your uncles place for now, move out and then make your own rules
>>
It depends on the state, look it up.
Better yet tell us your state.

Felony DUI in Illinois

First and second-time DUI offenders are usually charged with a class A misdemeanor. However, DUI in Illinois can be a felony in some situations. Felonies carry much harsher penalties, including larger fines and extended jail sentences.

Getting caught drinking and driving three times is an Illinois class 2 felony. Additionally, if you are driving with a passenger under the age of 16 and that passenger is injured due to drinking and driving, you may be charged with a class 4 felony, even if it is your first offense.

You will also be charged with a class 4 felony in Illinois on a first offense if you are caught driving with a suspended or revoked license or if you are caught driving without insurance. Also, if you cause great bodily harm to someone, even on a first offense, you will be charged with a class 4 felony.

Finally, accidentally causing someone's death due to drunk driving is a class 2 felony in Illinois.

So basically OP, did your dad ever DUI without car insurance?
>>
>>32198591
oh shit
>>
>>32198608
Sorry OP.

Best do a criminal record check if you can though, just in case and to know for sure. Don't base your next decisions off of what some random told you on 4chan
>>
>>32191997
>He doesn't really like anything that isn't a .22 or revolver, and thinks the SKS is a assault rifle.
so a cuck.
>>
>>32197370 >me

>>32198116
seen it happen

sorry dude i was just shit posting
>>32198159
>>32198542
>>32198608

It would make sense though. If he is broach the topic with your uncle so your dad doesn't have to feel shitty about talking about it.
>>
>>32191915
No. And no.

You didn't buy that only to not be the man of the house and get bossed around like an incompetent nigger.

Who the fuck buys this shit? 4chan you're just kids lying to one another.
>>
>>32198836
This should be a banner
>>
>>32191915
Move out, faglord. His house, his rules. Even if he's wrong, respect your father's wishes.
>>
>>32191915
your dad sounds like a pussy bitch
>>
>>32194991
The core principles of being American have nothing to do with hating Muslims. Your father advocates denial of the freedoms enumerated in the First and Second Amendments. That makes him the diametrically opposed to the principles upon which this nation was founded.
>>
Kinda makes me feel bad for taking my old man for granted.

>be 14
>get first shotgun
>HR break action in 20ga
>dad lets me keep gun unlocked in my room
>ammo locked in ammo cabinets with reloading supplies
>reach 16
>dad says if you are old enough to drive a ton of metal with 20 gallons of fuel you can keep ammo with gun
>lets me keep all my personal .22, 20ga, and x54r stash in room with guns

Hell when I was 21 I moved in with my girlfriend and her grandparents and her grandmother was worried about it for a little. Bought one of those large Plano totes for ammo and cleaning supplies to make her feel more at ease.

Granted I also had like 10 various rifles/shotguns and around 10k rounds total, so I could see her being worried her grandson finding any of it and fiddle fucking with it.

Even funnier gf's granddad was sorta fudds but still took interest in looking at my AR and SKS when I moved in.

>>32195302
This, because an sks and bayonet are more useful and badass than chucking 7.62 at dindus.
