The Puckle gun 1718, the Girandoni rifle 1779, the Constitution of United States of America 1789.
It would seem like the the founding fathers knew guns were advanced past single shot muskets.
It's almost like they wrote the Second Amendment, knowing what they were doing, and wrote it for a time just like now when someone is trying to take our guns away.
Lewis and Clark in 1804 had a Girandoni rifle, so you can't say the guns wern't in the states.
It was designed to have the option of firing square bullets at Turks (not making this up). But I don't think there is any record of it being sold with that option.
Kevin Miller
Yes. Put this on reddit. The left loves the revisionist history of the founding fathers
lets say that 100 years from now, there exists weapons so powerful they can take out an entire arena of people with a single shot, and they are also so small that they can be hidden under your thumbnail.
should these weapons still be legal for everyone to use?
Jose Harris
How do they work?
Logan Bennett
They also harvested cannons from ships, serious ordnance, citizens harvested em and kept them in their homes ready to reuse when needed again.
Juan Campbell
i'd love this picture if there weren't that stinking nazi shit behind each of the founding fathers of our democratic republic... dipshit
Gavin Ortiz
This is getting retarded.
James Mitchell
>should these weapons still be legal for everyone to use? It's already illegal to kill people. If I do it with a musket, an AR, or your hyper-weapon, it's still murder, or at least manslaughter. If you want to use your imaginary super weapon for legal purposes, I don't see anything wrong with that.
Gen X are unironically worse than Boomers in every way.
Aiden Davis
I never used them. Only slightly more effective than canister shot in pitch battles, but not worth sacrificing the range you get when you bring a 12 pounder.
Wyatt Adams
A gun meant to be fired by a crew like a fucking cannon crew not a citizen dipshit.
Jeremiah Fisher
black sun isn't a nazi symbol exclusively, just because its perceived as such doesn't make it the truth
Luke Jenkins
They also had hand grenades in 1776. The word 'firearms' was not used by the people who wrote the U.S. Constitution.
Michael Anderson
We should still fire square bullets at t*rks desu
Landon Garcia
it's true that anyone can appropriate a symbol, and occult symbols in particular are notoriously multivaried, but I've almost never seen the black sun used in any other context than those of nazis case in point, the image is titled 'Founding Fuhrers'
I think the intention was to point out the racial/ethnic/cultural/whatever you feel safe calling it awareness of the founding fathers
Lincoln Wood
The left are in full-on damage control over the constitution tearing pics and GIF, this is a followup. Share if you want. Tribute to the cult classic "They Live (1988)".
>t. 56% >Muh democracy >Muh "God given" rights. It's sometimes astounding how little Amerisharts know and how shallow their existence is, literally a continent of good muttgoyim.
>The state's tools of oppression and censorship have evolved (XKeyscore, PRISM, CIA black sites, etc) >No longer care about legality or morality >Not even the President can stand in their way
>The people's tool of self-defence are forbidden from evolving past what was legal in 1789 >Liable to change based on the slightest legal or moral challenge >Even a crying Mexican dyke can take away guns
Ever get the feeling that we're losing?
Zachary Jones
the founding father probably would have drawn the line at recreational nukes though shame
Mason Jenkins
You do realize ((( they ))) are paying people to hide behind US proxies and sound like complete dullards, don’t you mister bong?
I doubt they knew this thing even existed, only two were made. And I think that was back in the seventeen twenties.
Christopher Edwards
Are you also saying that 5 years after the constitution, they had no idea of who Lewis & Clark were, or what weapons they were carrying.
Hudson Baker
is that made of fucking brass?
Zachary Campbell
Of course Because farmer John is going to head to Walmart and pick up a Puckle gun that's on sale so he can defend his 10 acres from the red coats.
Levi Lopez
You don't know about things that happened 70 years ago? People in the 18th century had books and newspapers, they could look stuff up, especially if they're having important debates on the matter. It was officially patented as well, it's not like they only found it hundreds of years later in some guy's shed.
Anything that defends yourself from the state as an individual is okay, but anything that destroys the state is not okay. Personally owned aircraft carriers are okay so long as the ordinance they carry is used as personal defense of property, not destruction of others property. 30mm rounds are fine, but MOAB's are not. Tomahawks are a tricky item.
Cooper James
The puckle gun is a field weapon, how many people are expected to own their own canon back then?
Colton Gutierrez
I did
Adrian Williams
>believing technology will stop advancing
Juan Brooks
Private citzens owned canons. More an issue of cost.
Charles Garcia
We already have nukes and they are already illegal to own.
making them the size of a pin via magic wont change that...
Nice job OP, but you forgot to mention the Lorenzoni repeating muskets and flintlocks which could also fire multiple shots from internal magazines (1700's) youtube.com/watch?v=neQmNuaysCo
also the Cookson guns from as early as 1690
"The mechanism at the heart of the Cookson repeater dates from 1680 and was originally known in Europe as the Lorenzoni System, named for Italian gunsmith Michele Lorenzoni of Florence. Long arms utilizing this system were produced in other European nations and in the United States until about 1849. The Cookson rifle dates from 1750 and features a two-chamber horizontally mounted rotating drum. Loading was accomplished by lowering a lever which was mounted on the left side of the rifle. This caused the chambers to line up with two magazines contained within the buttstock and allowed one .55 caliber lead ball and a 60-grain powder charge to fall into their respective chambers. When the lever was returned to its original position, the ball dropped into the chamber, and the powder charge lined up behind it. At the same time, the hammer was cocked, the pan was primed, and the frizzen was lowered. After firing the rifle, the process could be repeated until the two magazines, with their seven-shot capacities, were empty. " these were also available dure
