minus-square@BytemeisterlinkΕλληνικά-1•10 months agoUses for a firearm that don’t involve killing people. Hunting, defense from predators, fire starting, signaling, paper weight, preventing your checked bags from getting lost or tampered…
minus-square@jvelink4•10 months agoFair enough re: hunting. You really ran out of steam after defense from predators though.
minus-square@BytemeisterlinkΕλληνικά-1•9 months agohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flare_gun https://youtu.be/KfqtYfaILHw?si=j7x4TyHmk6kMj5cd There is a good video of Les Stroud showing how to start a fire with a gun, having trouble finding it. Those were 6 uses off the top of my head. If you really want to stretch uses, you can use a gun as a hammer, you can use it to pinch your finger, and in dire situations it can be a dowry.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•9 months agoI got my boy scout badge when I used a gun to start the camping fire. True story.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink4•9 months agoNever had any of my hunter friends (and there’s a lot of them) hunt with a handgun. Is that even legal?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink0•9 months agohttps://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handgun_hunting TL;Dr yes, the enthusiasts say it takes more skill, which is true, so fair enough, though I’d argue it’s more likely to just make you miss a killshot and lead to unnecessary suffering. Just get closer with a rifle if that’s your thing.
