sup /k/, r9k here.
I dont know anything about guns but i have an opportunity to buy a .25 caliber gun that was described to me as "very small purse gun" for around 300 dollars
Now where i live guns are illegal so theyre hard to come by for a robot like myself, and the only other one i could find was a 9mm for almost 1000dollars which is too much for me
Anyway, is a .25 too puny or can it still do its job and anything bigger is just a penis compensator?

Anything can be a dildo, if you're brave enough.

>Now where i live guns are illegal
and what shithole country you from m8?
>>34832646
chile, shit sucks
.25 is better than nothing but the make and model is important since some of those fuckers will break themselves apart due to poor metallurgy/construction

mierda toro guns are prohibitad, get your damn liscenses, yes, i know its an ass pain there but plenty of argies and paraguayans do it and yours aint too different from theirs, come on, youre white, you know better

>Chileans are white
No.
Enough .25 auto will do the job

If you can afford 9, go 9. It's an investment in your life.
Only do it if you can buy ammo for it. :^)

I'm not sure if I'm allowed to give a r9k person advise on guns. I feel like I'd either be assisting your suicide, or an impromptu shooting.
>live in chile
>cant afford a helicopter
>buy a handgun
>shoot commies
do it

Incase this isnt b8, try not to shoot up a school, autismus maximus
.25 autos are a good choice. Ask if there is a brand name or manufactuer markings on it
.25 is only good for up close frontal shots. It may or may not glance off skulls at sharp angles but a direct hit will go thru

it says browning, its not new its used

That's... actually a pretty legit pocket gun. Need to shoot point blank though. Better for threatening than killing.
Even if you have a .25acp, it will still feel inadequate and you'll regret it. Its not even good for intimidation. Go all in on the 9mm.
People carried .25 Auto all the fucking time in the 1900s and 1910s, and people have only gotten softer since then. Just make sure you magdump

venezuela needs lots of commie removing too

it's probably a fair deal for 300, being a browning it would have some collector value in most liklihood, its at least not junk, have a pic?
>>34832623
Don't buy it until you've had a chance to put a few magazines through it to make sure it works. Somebody could be trying to unload junk on you.
Don't buy it unless you can get a reasonable quantity of ammo for it. A gun without ammo is no better than a rock.
Any gun is better than no gun and plenty of people have been killed by .25s, but they are less effective than other calibers on non vital shots. Bullets don't kill people, they cause injuries that a person eventually dies (or is disabled) from. Larger bullets cause bigger injuries that disable people more quickly. 9mm is not a penis compensator, the bullets are larger, heavier, and faster and cause more serious injuries and stop people faster than a .25. 9mm is better, but you can still defend yourself with a .25, especially if the other person doesn't have a gun.
You have no gun experience, so make sure you can afford to practice and have a place you can practice. A .25 is a relative peashooter, if you ever have to defend yourself with one you will probably have to fire several shots, and that's what you should practice: Drawing your gun and quickly and accurately firing several rounds.
Since guns are illegal in your country, no one else has one, once you have one, no one will be able to stop you from taking over. Buy it (if it works).

yeah we pretty much aren't white

It's a good gun. And yea its good enough. In the united states at least, shot placement has more to do with death rates concerning handguns than the size of the bullet.
bueno suerte weon

This. Placement is 90% of what causes incapacitation.
