Do you keep your guns out in the open or do you lock them up?

do you keep your guns out in the open or do you lock them up?

I keep them locked up out in the open

The gun is my penis

Close enough for me to grab, hidden enough for nobody to find.

...

I live in Australia so I'm not allowed to own a gun for self defense. Seriously, it's not on the list of acceptable reasons to own a gun.
If I owned a handgun I would need to keep it locked in a safe, with the ammo in a separate room. I would also be subject to unannounced home inspections from the police if I did own a gun and if either of those conditions weren't met I would be fined and potentially arrested.

your guns gonna help you a lot when next mass shooting happens

>Only armed if it's in arms reach.

LOVE GUUUUN!!!

Lot more than your butt plug will.

LOCKED AND LOADED BABY
LETS DO THIS
GET SOME

what guns

Right answer

What good is it going to do you locked up when Hilbots arrive for a pre-dawn gungrabbin raid?

damn that was hardcore
you owned me
american posters are so cool

>Not locked up.
>Not out in the open.
Hidden strategically all over the house.

I converted it into a memory and store it in a mental vault where I keep the fragments of who I was back when other humans found it possible to love me.

Those restrictions sure sound like they'd prevent a pre-meditated attack...

I keep these guns out at ALL times

I store them in my anal cavity

Freedom is pretty cool bud, try it out sometime.

I believe you!

These bad boys are locked and loaded. Try to get into my house, see what happens

>freedom
there's places in your own country which you can't visit as white male unless you want to get fucked by bunch of blacks

...

Well I don't plan in going to prison, so....

What would be the point of having a locked up gun?

I keep mine right above my computer.

Um sweater, I was being sarcastic

Hey gois! Who fellow /firearmowner/ here? Praise Keek!

>PPS-43
What the hell, its still being produced and sold in US?

once per month you can unlock them all and ride to nearby desert where you can shoot empty beer cans and watermelons while filming it for youtube channel

Filling out a 4473 like "naw I don't do drugs"

>When the F. P. is truly the B. P.

they're loaded and accessible at all times

>tumblr
WHAT THE FUUUUUUCK

>>PPS-43
>What the hell, its still being produced and sold in US?
kek
you didn't know that? I started seeing a lot of them in pistol form(welded closed stock) 5 or so years ago. They even make 9mm versions now.

It's still pretty cool if it's just a pistol caliber carbine
>as long as it's cheap
>those things are sooooooo cheaply made

Keep a glock 19 behind a scored patch of drywall. Can be punched out and acessed in seconds. Good for children

Exactly lmao.

Its for porn i promise.

I keep my HKUSP 45 within reach at all times.

can you save some pussy for the rest of us? Tnx

No need to be modest, your homies killed us in the 2016 election.

...

Out in the open. I keep a gun in just about every room. Knives too, everywhere!

t.shocked vet

That along with our ridiculous self defence laws basically ensure people are completely powerless when people break into your home, hence why it's become so common for Sudanese nigger immigrants here to do it. The families are defenseless and they face more serious charges than the intruders if they fight back.
I've got the file here but cant remember what name I saved it as but our head of police's only advice when the home invasions started becoming a real problem was call the police.
Bad luck if you're getting rape or murdered I guess.

My shotgun and rifle are in my room. Shotgun very near where I sleep. I have kids. I lock my bedroom door at all times if I'm not in there.

Wow....youre a bitch of a man. I feel sory for your family.

that can looks pretty beat
might be time to replace the baffles

I fall asleep with a pistol in my mouth every night

All locked up. I have kids, although I've taught them firearms.

Three quick-access finger safes with cocked and locked pistols

Correct. Mass shootings let me raise the price tags on the guns I'm selling.

What do you expect me to do about those laws? More than half the population agree with them. There's absolutely nothing I can do, memeflagger.

dam

our regulations are somewhat strict but I am glad that defence of self and one's property is specifically listed as a reason to own and carry a firearm in our laws.
it is a really important aspect in legislation if person are actually allowed to defend themselves or will be pretty much constantly fucked for standing up for themselves.
theres not much use of a handgun except for plinking otherwise
and guns or no guns - you are going to be fucked in plenty of "modern democratic" countries if you put a baseball bat to your bedside and use it to beat the intruder - as you were "obviously preparing to murder someone"

you can break those laws
just do it

...

>> so many hipointz

Shameful display.

I have to legally keep them locked in a safe with the ammo in a separate locked box.

Yeah, there's honestly a fair bit of slack allowed in the laws. You wouldn't realistically get charged with improper storage if you were cleaning/fingerfucking a gun when someone broke in.

The cops can make an appointment to inspect your safe, but it's more checking that you can comply with the laws rather than checking that you do.

>Le highpoint meme
You think they're a shitty gun...until you have a Taurus fucking explode on you

I think legal* and also quite sensible** thing would be to carry a loaded gun on your person when you are at home. In case of sudden inspection you could then always say that you were just taking it out or putting it back to storage as you were planning to go to range or do some maintenance.


* *a loaded gun somewhere in the house not locked up - is actually a source of trouble (can land into stupid or malicious hands who can then immediately use it - think some kid or a cat burglar) while if it is not on your person next to your reach it might not actually do you any good in the way of home defence.

*forgot the lgeal part - unless your police and law are so seriously fucked up that wearing a holster will be considered a pre-medaition of murder (like the bat example ) though you can wear it hholsterless with a suitable handgun of course.

ahh and theire going to probably fuck you because gun is lodaded -- fugg. maybe keep a lockable ammo box handy and in case you see po-po behind your door you can dump ammo there. You were taking your gun and a box of ammo to the range just at the moment - what a coincidence.

"Sudden inspections" aren't a thing.
I mean they can theoretically do it, but you can just tell them it's an inconvenient time and that they should come back another day.

In reality, they call you a couple of days beforehand to arrange a time and even then you might get one inspection in 10 years.

If you have to use it then you can get charged with premeditated murder, but I'm not personally worried about that since if I ever shoot someone the alternative is death.
I'd rather spend life in prison than be killed by a burglar.

I don't buy your notion about it being inherently dangerous to leave guns unsecured. I live by myself and kids never, ever come into my house. If someone breaks in, then they're going to carry the whole gun safe out on a trolley - no matter what security I have, they'll take the guns if they want them.

>If you have to use it then you can get charged with premeditated murder, but I'm not personally worried about that since if I ever shoot someone the alternative is death.
>I'd rather spend life in prison than be killed by a burglar.
reasonable. also if you do not live in a city then shovel the body somewhere in the woods and be doe with it. worse that can happen you get caught and you were to serve an inordinate time anyway. quite likely nothing happens

Except if you do that you're guaranteed to get convicted, whereas if you try to defend yourself in court you have a pretty good chance of getting off.

...

That's a bummer there buddy. Just out of curiosity, are there any stand out examples of guns used by civilians for self defense in Australia in the last decade or so?

That is a sexy fucking shotgun
Does this mean I have autism

except for in the US bc we actually play baseball and don't just buy the bats as clubs to bashing ppl

This is the correct answer.

A few months ago a farmer held up a knife-wielding burglar with an unloaded .22 and took him to the cop shop in the back of his car.

They took his guns, but he eventually got them back after a fair bit of legal bullshit.

No kids and I have deadbolts installed. If I hear a bump in the night it is a very enthusiastic home invader and I am clear to recolor my walls.

AR15 for pretty much any situation because of the high magazine count and light.

Shot gun for "let's not turn this rape into a murder" moments.

AR10 if they are going to run try to drive away 3 blocks without turning.

Why did they take his guns?

Because Australia's a shithole?

He was able to use those guns to defend himself from that burglar and get him arrested without incident.
Can't have citizens just going around doing that. They need to be burglarised and raped so they can appreciate the police.

At least you have platypus. That has to count for something, right?

Makes sense. I wish we had some good common sense gun laws.

good explanation

most modern governments want us weak, meek, unable to fend for ourselves so we have to rely on them.

Get in.

in most of the us you wouldn't be charged for bashing the invader of your home cause you are not retarded in this aspect
i could have said cricket bat for aussie or whatever suitable blunt object for many "advanced democracies"

I keep an old wooden lever action shotgun for home defense.
2 reasons: 1) 5 shots of 00 buckshot will end any conflict with any non military trained group. 2) wooden grandpa guns look more innocent, if you actually use it, they will be associated with Lone Ranger style truth and Justice, not Muh ebil black assault rifle

Wouldn't you like to know

good thinking. it is a (somewhat sad) fact of life that appearances matter.

Live in the midwest. I do not have to dress up my 100% legit and legal self defense castle defense by showing I was using old timey guns to kill the home invader that seeked to rob me, rape me, or kill me.

both, but the one in open is always in reach.

Yes.

so much for the rule of never pointing a gun at you even when unloaded.

You should attach a flashlight on each of these if you haven't already, Don't wanna shoot what you can't see.
Apart from that this is a bretty good setup for home-defense.

You going to shoot a squirrel with that pea shooter?

I keep mine in my pocket when I'm awake, and on the bed stand when I'm asleep.

My nigger except I have a HK45C.

What guns?

Sounds like you should do some raping and murdering of your own m8. The best defense is a good offense.

break the law or be dead, your choice.

My guns are submarines.

Depends. If I had a hunting shotgun or rifle I'd be allowed to keep it in the open, but my AK4 is always to be in a safe, I'm not allowed to even open it in the presence of other people.

Amen to that. In the Midwest, the legal recommendation is to shoot first, and shoot to kill, when someone is in your residence without your permission. My lawyer specifically advised me to completely empty the gun into the burglar, firstly because it implies a sense of panic (impaired judgement), and secondly because dead men tell no tales, so they will never be able to make any accusations about you to the cops.

In the midwest, if you're gonna shoot someone, you are legally better off killing them than just wounding them. I prefer this.

>AK4
I thought i was the only one who have one, Good choice.

hey man i am going to ove back to America in a couple years and I am thinking about a career in firearms, how would one get started with a gun store like yours? I have no debt but little savings so what is my best route?

It is a very curious world we live in. Where the legal ramifications of protecting your own home from an intruder that may kill you has stipulations. Like it is better to kill them dead as fucking fucking because if you just wound them. Then they can sue you for pain and suffering, or because you were not truly in fear for your life against the unknown 3 AM home invader because you only shot 4 times instead of 30.

Mad world.

Well, to be fair, the lawyer was only recommending that for handguns and shotguns, not rifles with magazines that hold 30+ rounds.

I don't know how well the panic defense would work for 30 shots, but for 6-13, it's seen as reasonable.

They are threatening to take it away and force me to keep a G36 in the upcoming years though. I don't want that pussy cartridge firing, fragile plastic piece if crap.
