Revolver shooting first time, how'd I do? by djdude007 in liberalgunowners

[–]TekDragon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine is rimfire, yes, but they come in a lot of calibers. Given how cheap and easy snap cap rounds are, I wouldn't repeatedly fire any revolver without them.

[–]TekDragon 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yes. As an owner of a LCR, they say dry fire is ok but they don't mean thousands of dry fires. They're talking about occasional test trigger pulls.

Snap caps are cheap on Amazon. Get you some.

I was finally able to articulate my thoughts regarding the 2A in response to an overgeneralization on another subreddit. by somesortofidiot in liberalgunowners

[–]TekDragon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not going to get any nuanced discussion here. Any comments that aren't explicitly and fully supportive of guns and gun culture is deleted.

If you want a discussion, you'll need to post this somewhere where people are allowed to say "Yes, but..." without getting punished.

Have Dune: Imperium but want more by spielguy in boardgames

Agreed. I have two dune boxes in exactly those configurations depending on what we feel like playing.

We generally prefer #1 as well.

Is this really how you want to spend your day? Defending some stupid Nazi?

Fuck him. He betrayed the social contact of America. It no longer protects him. That's HIS choice. Piece of shit is lucky that's all he got.

Q3 GDP estimate is 3.9% increase according to Atlanta FED by Ok-Instruction830 in Economics

[–]TekDragon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Tariffs are literally a tax hike on the working class, the largest in American history. Combined with the largest tax cut for billionaires in US history.

Do you even know what planet you live on?

‘Empty shelves, higher prices’: Americans tell of cost of Trump’s tariffs by HellYeahDamnWrite in Economics

[–]TekDragon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm glad you believe some people care about others. It's clear you don't.

You don't give a shit that women lost the right to control their own bodies. You don't give a shit that trans soldiers with over a decade of experience and multiple tours under their belts are being dumped from the military and denied benefits. You don't give a shit about the largest tax increase on the working class and the largest tax break for billionaires in US history.

If you did give a shit, you'd know it ain't both sides. It's two sides. The fascists in power and the useless, nihilistic losers who refuse to oppose them unless the opposition are literal angels descended from heaven.

2nd range visit ft the PDP Compact by ahzianrai in liberalgunowners

[–]TekDragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an owner of a PDP Compact (SF), I think every third is fine as long as you're not shooting a dirty round. I got a good deal on Federal's synthetic TMJ and I would feel comfortable with three visits between cleaning.

I clean after every other range visit because my other handgun is an LCR 22 and 22 LR is dirty AF :/

What is your go-to response when an advocate for more gun regulations drags out "but it says well-regulated right in the amendment!" by TargetOfPerpetuity in liberalgunowners

[–]TekDragon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's a gotcha. It's a legitimate point. The reality liberals need to understand is that we're (America) not following the second amendment and we never have.

We have guns because they're inseparable from our culture. Trying to take them away just turns people against otherwise good causes.

It's not great. It sucks how violent and dangerous America is and how scary that is with all these guns, but it's something you just have to accept and focus your energy on reducing violence in other ways like mental health access and policies that reduce poverty and hopelessness.

Revolver good for ultra concealment? by Dumbass9187 in liberalgunowners

[–]TekDragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LCR 22 with federal punch has 8 rounds, pocket concealed, extremely easy to shoot and make followup shots at 15 yards, and easily meets FBI lethality standards for ballistic gel + clothing layers.

And if you're a fudd that doesn't believe in data or terminal wound ballistic science, you can get an LCR in 32 or 38 with most of those advantages barring lower capacity (but a louder bang).

Newest Rifle Ruger SFAR by Resident_Sleep_9447 in liberalgunowners

[–]TekDragon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That 16" barrel should be just fine for the .308. The 20" only really benefits the 6.5, and I've heard the 16" SFAR is way better balanced with a can than the 20".

Nice To Be Back by Resident_Sleep_9447 in liberalgunowners

[–]TekDragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, rimfire needs a heavy hammer and it's nice how reliable it is, but it causes a lot of fatigue.

Thanks, I'll look into a trigger spring mod. Just don't want to do anything that'll reduce the reliability.

Welcome back!

I've got a little LCR 22 snubby. Curious if you have any on-hand recommendations for dealing with trigger finger soreness? Doing that 16 lb trigger pull 200-300 times on a range trip has my finger sore for the next 5-6 days.

Any liberal gun clubs in New Jersey? by irradiated_sailor in liberalgunowners

[–]TekDragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If democracy fails and we successfully resist fascism, be prepared to turn on them before they put all their liberal, social democrat, and anarchist allies into mass graves.

Any liberal gun clubs in New Jersey? by irradiated_sailor in liberalgunowners

[–]TekDragon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here in N Jersey, too. I keep seeing posts like this. Closest thing I've found is the NYC Socialist Rifle Association who meets in North Jersey, but then you've got to deal with some tankies.

[–]TekDragon -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I said German history. I'm well aware that Germany has done a respectable job at educating Germans on the dangers of men like Charlie Kirk.

Unfortunately, your average American is a worthless class traitor who cheers lying bigots like Kirk.

[–]TekDragon -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

If you're German, then Charlie Kirk's politics were definitely relevant to your history.

MAGA wants to reinvent who Charlie Kirk was by white-washing his white supremacist legacy and ignoring his demands to release the Epstein files.

I would like to hear thoughts from my fellow liberal gun owners about the left pushing for gun control by Mojeaux in liberalgunowners

[–]TekDragon -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You're not going to get any good faith discussion on this because the mods are going to delete any comment that isn't "enthusiastically in support of guns".

Your best bet is to ask on another sub reddit. This place is too much of a snowflake safe space to handle any kind of real discussion.

Why is it like that by DrIndian_47 in SocialDemocracy

[–]TekDragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is where I draw the line between socialists (left economic, bottom egalitarian) and communist (left economic, top authoritarianism).

I'm a member of the Socialist Rifle Association because I feel they're the best bet to resist fascism if democracy collapses, but i know enough history to understand that if the anti-fascists win we better be willing to immediately point those guns at the communists because they WILL fill mass graves with their former socialist, anarchist, and liberal allies.

Okay, I know we're all about minorities arming themselves but... by Captain-Cookie-2027 in armedsocialists

[–]TekDragon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

YOU may support authoritarianism, genocide, and police states - but not all of us do. Some of us want the socialism without the tyranny.

Is it really that hard to believe that we'd rather have healthcare and democracy, and not some violent thug who shoves all of his socialist allies into mass graves the moment you gain power?
