Post your best alternatives to a practical, working firearm. Discuss methods of defense (both home and personal) that will hopefully (probably wont) hold up in a court of law. Sob angry, autistic tears because your shitty government thinks you shouldn't be allowed to own a .22

i hope this thread will reduce the number of "eurofag here, is x a suitable replacement for a gun?" "britbong here, what can i use as a weapon in case of the zombie apocalypse?"

I have this fantasy where slipping on brass knuckles quickly deescalates a potential fist-fight

Cuckifornian here.
Would /k/ rather spend 300 burgerbux on recurve bow, arrows and extras, or black powder revolver, ammo, powder, and caps?
The bow would (provided I become proficient with it) get used as a hunting weapon, while the revolver would be used as a range toy.

I'd get the revolver because bp is cool as fuck.
That's coming from someone who had to do archery in his youth despite not liking it so I'm biased though

For practical reasons, a gun would be better for self defense. Smaller, and you don't have to worry about having enough room with your arms to shoot

If you are a nogunz poorfag in America build a slam shotgun. Costs less than $20. Not the best, but at least you will have a gun. Just trying to help.
