This is probably as close to an accurate answer we'll get because you clearly don't have a fucking clue

Is the M1903 a bad gun?
I was thinking of getting one
>>33789339
The answer is pretty obvious, senpai.
>>33789418
So, revolvers in general?
I just can't see some guy wearing a plaid shirt, a snowcap, non-perscription eyewear and wingtips holding a Colt Python
>>33789404
theyre basically an american mauser except more accurate.
but >>33789365
and >>33789360
are correct. anything which is objectively not the best choice or most practical, but is aesthetic.
>>33789430
I can't picture him holding anything else, except maybe a C96.
>>33789430
Are you kidding? It's the perfect gun for them.
They love dressing up as "real men." That's why plaid and beards are so popular among hipsters. They would absolutely buy a massively overpriced "classy" gun that's too powerful for them to actually shoot and that they just have to show to their hipster friends around their coffee table.
C96 Autism Blaster is another good choice, or Matebas.
>>33789438
How the fuck is the 1911 not practical or objectively good?
I'm not saying it's anywhere near the pinnacle of modern arms, but it's a tried and true design, affordable and has a massive aftermarket for parts, and is a very common piece, far too common for a hipster to consider carrying
>>33789474
>matebas
Holy shit yes. Arguably the most hipster revolver in existence. It's overpriced, over complicated, looks weird as fuck, and is 100% special snowflake certified.
Now we just gotta teach those hipsters to reload their own ammo so they can make special snowflake loads for their matebas.
>55gr .357 Magnum +P+ wadcutter 2400fps when
I kind of want to do some goofy pastel guns.
>>33789474
The C96 is way too mainstream, even for ironic carry. Any truly pretentious hipster would opt for the Borchardt C-93 since everybody knows Hugo sold out to DWM with the 96.
>>33789520
there are objectively better options which are more practical for carrying. it is as much a fashion accessory as a tool for many who carry them. its time to deal with it, gramps.
>>33789527
If they're going to start reloading, expect them to ironically use locally sourced black powder.
>>33789339
Probably some shit like this.
>>33789546
You sound like a faggot who would throw away a perfectly operational AK-47 in exchange for a P90
>>33789574
i have multiple AKs and nothing more tacticool than a basic bitch AR-15. the difference is, im not using those things in a practical way, theyre for leisure. if youre going to carry a machine to protect your life, why wouldnt you want that machine to be the best suited for the job?
>>33789552
>He doesn't make his own black powder with his own urine
You know the store-bought stuff has chemicals in it right?
I bet you don't even use vintage recycled car wheel weights to cast your bullets.
As someone who likes old fashioned stuff like black powder and single action revolvers and dying of dysentery, I'd without a doubt say old military revolvers. Maybe the Reichsrevolver, I could easily see Forgotten Weapons pandering to these guys because you have forgotten weapons being presented and their stories and facts laid out in such nice bite sized portions that it's easy to digest.
>>33789573
I'd carry that desu

It's a signaling tool rather than a fashion accessory for most people who buy them at this point for carry - not for competitions where they actually have a place.

Both groups have pic related on their desktop for convenience since they end up posting it in any thread where the 1911 is mentioned, sooner or later.
>>33789635
going full retard, eh?
i dont actually carry anything because most places i go daily dont allow carrying. even if they did, the chances of me actually needing it are practically zero. i hope i dont seriously have to explain to you why carrying around a rifle is also not the best choice in most situations.

Meh, I like 1911s. They're probably the cheapest single action semi-automatic you can get, as long as you don't go full retard and buy one of those 'custom' guns that cost more than a house. Plus they look cool.
For actual carry I use an LCP 90% of the time.

You guys got it all wrong, those guns are either history buff (i.e. Ian), fudd, gun grandpa (hickok45) or gangsta (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zoSJ5iaC0lc). Just because something is old or antique doesn't automatically make it hipster, otherwise they still would be saying negro.
Hipsters need something for their soft sensitive hands and lack of upper arm strength, something that they can handle without it flying in towards the face as they realize they can't handle recoil.
So basically pic related would be ideal, probably a bit smaller because the recoil of even this might be too much for them.

I was implying that a hipster couldn't handle a .22 LR and needed an even shorter .22 LR pistol.

the slide of my glock is orange, like the OP. I did because I like the weapon to be high visibility. That way, if something happens and it ends up dropped, etc. I can easily see it.
I also found, in training drills, that when using the weapon in extreme close quarters or when grappling, it's nice because the orange makes it really easy to keep a check on where the muzzle is oriented in my peripheral while I focus on the fight.

then there will be the cartridge hipsters who own exclusively outdated or obsolete rounds, or rounds that are seen as obscure so they can whip out the "oh yeah this is just my 10mm it was totally the next big thing but the government said no to it so ofcourse it's too obscure to make it into mainstream service" "yeah this thing i have that you never knew existed, no big deal" cept with a round that isnt actually good and on they way back up

Maybe America just got unlucky with ours. I dunno.
>>33789650
Of course the Fedora is an outdated design. It came from an era when headwear was designed to be tipped, not to avoid gentlemanly conversation lawsuits. It came from an era where it was the norm to learn how your m’ladys operated and to practice being a gentleman until it became second nature, not to design the headwear to the lowest common denominator. It came from an era in which our country tried to supply its gentlemen with the best garments possible, unlike today, when our non-euphoric men and women are issued headware that was adopted because of international deal-making or the fact that the factory is in some well-connected God believers district. Yes, beyond any shadow of a doubt, the Fedora IS an outdated design… and that’s exactly why I tip it.

Single action revolvers.
The fixie of handguns.
>>33789650
I love my 1911s. Great guns.
>>33792472
Nagants are fun to shoot. I can see why a new shooter would like them, as they have low recoil and require more actions from the user than most other handguns.
Coincidentally I also live in Oregon, own an M1895, and know hipsters from Eugene.
>>33789430
While I'm not a hipster I have many of the same tastes, and I went straight for a revolver as my first gun. It's just classier, I can confidently tell people that it's more versatile and reliable than a semiauto, and that lower capacity doesn't matter because the only people outside the military or police that think they need more than 6 shots are dumb rednecks with delusional fantasies of getting into gunfights.

What is this 1910?
When revolvers jam, they are usually infinitely harder to clear than a semi auto.
You're a fucking retard.
>>33798336
A glock and an AR will take you a long way. If you want to cover every base get a used pump shotgun and a heavier caliber rifle, probably a bolt action. Between the 4 of them you can take on pretty much any threat short of water buffalo and elephants and out food on the table for the rest of your life.

My experience is that generally the closer a Jew is to the Holocaust (they experienced it or someone close to them did), the more pro-gun they are because they aren't getting got if/when Shoah 2 happens. You get either a guy who's passive aggressive as all hell to non-Jews or a guy building interpersonal relationships so he has battlebuddies of SHTF. My dad got fucked over by one from the former and lost a job in the late 80s, but one of the latter saved his ass by goimg Zimmerman mode when he lived in LA in the 90s.

Revolvers are fudd and gun grandpa as fuck. Same goes for older pump actions and lever guns.
To them, it would symbolize the "traditional" "patriarchy" and "toxic masculinity" or some shit like that.
>>33799238
I used reading comprehension you butt.
When Apple and Facebook just were getting out, hipsters flocked to them like a moth to a stadium light. It was trendy and "cool", and to them "different" because it was somehow "cutting edge". Course that's till it became less trendy and more normie, with the hipsters silently reeing out, but you get my point.
Just because something is old or antique doesn't instantly make it hipster. If that was the case, the Youtubers /k/ circlejerks about (Ian, Hickok45, maybe Demolition Ranch?, etc), as well as a large portion of the Southeast and midwest USA would be hipster as fuck.
No, hipsters follow what is hip and cool, hence the name hip-ster.
>>33799241
>Revolvers are fudd and gun grandpa as fuck.
That's the point you retard.
>>33799260
>I used reading comprehension you butt.
No you didn't.
Smart guns are SEEN as cutting edge by people who don't understand shit about either technology or firearms, and at the same time they are fairly obscure at this point (and will hopefully stay that way), so it only makes sense for hipsters to be all into them.
>>33799264
Except that goes against the current grade of hipster, you cretin fuckin troglodyte.
Current grade of hipster would find anything conservative and old (i.e. 50's) to be "oppressive" and some shit like that. Guns included. Flannel shirts are as universal as hoodies, so those don't count.
But hey, maybe we're talking about different breeds of hipsters, and the one I'm thinking about is squat nigger, I mean pitbull.
>>33799273
Wait, holda holda holda. Are you saying hipsters are for smart guns or against.
If you saying for, that is what I was talking about and this was one big ol' misunderstanding. Probably some of it on my part in that case.
>they are fairly obscure at this point (and will hopefully stay that way)

The only modernish thing they use are Apple products because they can't survive without Instagram, and even then they'll probably get a fucking wood case for it.
>>33799314
Yeah, ok we're talking different breed of hipster.
I forgot there's that one subgenre that was there for awhile that acts like they're avant-garde for copying grandad. Except they all are pompous, so that might be a mute point.
Ironically, never seen any hipsters at diners. Including the one's with the fake neon everywhere and even had old cassette players. Guess a medium rare steak, fries, and a cup of Joe ain't their style.
