I would overwhelmingly recommend a book named _Shoot: Your Guide to Shooting and Competition by Julie Golob. It goes over a lot of basics about pistols vs rifles vs shotguns and gives a good overview of different shooting sports and techniques. It’s available on Kindle, but the real book itself is great quality.
If you’re at all interested in hunting, The Complete Guide to Hunting, Butchering, and Cooking Wild Game_, vols., 1 & 2 by Steven Rinella are a great place to start.
This world of guns is a deep rabbit hole filled with fun activity, technical detail, skill building, nerdiness, history, collectibles, legalities, philosophy and inevitably, politics. You can deep dive into any one of these areas and there are nearly endless resources for all of them. Literally too many to recommend a good single one. But reading everything you can is a must, IMHO. If something is particularly motivating you, more recommendations would be happily given.
Excellent :)
For wallet, the best security is a hardware wallet. I suggest the Ledger Nano S. One thing- when you set it up it gives you 24 words to write down. Keep those safe! With those 24 words you (or anyone else) can clone your Ledger and spend all your money. All $3 of it.
coinbase.com is a decent exchange to deal with. Easy to use.
Some banks have anti-crypto policies on their credit cards. So if you use a credit card to buy more crypto, Google it first and make sure it's not one that will give you flack for using cryptocurrency.
And feel free to ask any questions you may have :)
i loves me some booze, so don't take this the wrong way but...actually Prohibition kinda did fix some serious social ills. and for all the gangsterism that arose in the big cities from the resulting illegal booze trade, most historical assessments i've read agree that from a strictly harm-vs-benefit standpoint that P as a public policy was almost certainly to the good side.
on another note, if you're interested in a seriously engrossing read about Prohibition's cast of characters (nothing to do with the above), highly recommend picking up a cheap used copy of Thomas Coffey's The Long Thirst.. it begins with his dad ritualistically taking him out for his first beer when he's 13, which is the day P was repealed in 1933. just a really fascinating book you won't be able to put down. plus i love that his name is Coffey, works on so many levels.
This whole line of thinking that OP is selling here is complete nonsense and is thoroughly contradicted by a straightforward reading of US History. First, read the US Constitution, Article I, Section 8, Clause 15 "The Militia Clauses":
>"The Militia Clauses Clause 15. The Congress shall have Power to provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions.
Clause 16. The Congress shall have Power to provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress."
Next, read about how in the early 1790s Congress passed laws that strengthened the President's role of Commander-in-Chief by clarifying his power to take command of the state militias, especially to put down insurrections such as The Whiskey Rebellion...
And then go back and refresh yourself on the Whiskey Rebellion where President Washington federalized 12,000 state militiamen to put down an armed insurrection.
Beyond the fact that by then the Founders were unanimously in favor of granting the President the power to federalize state militias, it's important to understand the lasting national effects of how President Washington handled the Whiskey Rebellion. The effect was to reassure everyone that presidents would be judicious about their power to wield the state militias, and fears of a tyrannical king-like president began to fade away when we saw the massive upsides of a strong federal govt that could reimpose the rule of law whenever threatened.
All of this is really just freshman year American History and a 20-minute review of it over a cup of coffee should be enough to convince anyone in doubt that OP's idea here is complete rubbish. The Founders never, in any way, meant to support, or encourage, or even leave room for, armed insurrection against government in the US in any way whatsoever. It's purely a fantasy of relatively recent vintage that's been ginned up by the gun lobby to justify selling some higher-profit margin products that look a lot like what soldiers use.
Excellent, thanks dude! I think I might actually have a copy of that FM kicking around somewhere, but who knows where it's at, so maybe it'd not a bad idea for me to pick up another. Also, if we're sharing good sources of info, look into picking up a copy of Thomas Glover's "Pocket Ref", it's tiny enough to keep in your bag, and I promise once you flip through the pages, you'll know what I mean when I say it's impossible to suggest that buying it was a mistake.

You don't actually need a drill press, but I like to have one (for P80s as well). There are higher end jigs, routers, and drill presses (Easy Jig gen 2, 5d Tactical) but these are good enough to get you going. They are what I use (minus that drill press, I have a brand name one) and they work well repeatedly.
IIRC, your original points were something to the effect that it’s easier to ban guns than gas, and that the Kyoto attack wasn’t covered intensely because it wasn’t in America. I think other people pretty well addressed the ‘not in America’ part, referring to the wall to wall coverage Christchurch got because it served the Democrats’ gun ban agenda.
Anything can be banned. The question is how effective a ban could be. Alcohol, gambling, prostitution, recreational drugs and gay relationships have all been banned. How well did those work? By the way, gasoline is a lot harder to make and requires far more complex and expensive capital equipment to make than guns do. While gas might be practical to ban, at least for a while, most things that run on gas can be converted to run on alcohol, which is easy to make at home.

Are you seriously arguing that Europe is an example of why mass slaughter is unlikely? Ever heard of Hitler? Stalin? The Armenian genocide? More recently, the wars in the Balkans?
https://www.hawaii.edu/powerkills/SOD.TAB16A.1.GIF
You certainly can run a country with an unarmed population, and if you’re in charge, that’s way easier than having peasants who can tell you to f*ck off.
The argument that the population can’t defeat the government has been addressed by a number of writers. The short version is:
The military is the people. In a rebellion, it would split like the population. In a rightist rebellion against a leftist government, two thirds of the predominantly conservative military will side with the rebels. In a left rebellion against a rightist government, about one military person in six would support the rebels. Defection or sabotage by one in six is more than enough to paralyze any military unit.
The military, in total, is about 1.3 million, including the Navy, Coast Guard, Air Force, and so on. About ten percent of the military can actually engage in combat, and nearly all of those are overseas. More than 100 million Americans have guns. Good luck suppressing even three million rebels spread over 3.8 million square miles, striking when they please and fading back into the population when they feel like it. There isn’t the remotest chance the military could suppress a rebellion of five percent of the population.
I get the feeling you’re fairly young. The political world hasn’t changed much at all for a very long time. It is, and always will be about power. The very recent experiments in democracy are only possible because power is diffused... in the form of privately owned guns.
A century is a very, very short piece of human history, and oppression and murder of people has been a constant for at least the past few thousand years of recorded history, and almost certainly much longer. Read this book:
https://www.amazon.com/Better-Angels-Our-Nature-Violence-ebook/dp/B0052REUW0
Anthropologists think 15% of people died violently through most of human existence. An American with no criminal record is very unlikely to be murdered.

Five hundred years ago, anyone who could afford to buy horses and armor for half a dozen thugs could take anything you had, your wife, your kids, your property, your life, and those people routinely did. Freedom and safety have only existed for common people since the invention of portable firearms, because when the Lord of the fiefdom comes into your village to exercise his right of prima nocta now, you shoot him off his horse.
https://www.dictionary.com/e/historical-current-events/prima-nocta/
The problem with rules about who has guns is that the rich and powerful always make the rules.
As to a need for military grade guns for killing people... yes, that’s the point. America can’t have a Rwanda-style massacre because everyone is armed. A balance of arms is stability insurance.
You’re doing a decent job of presenting the standard anti-gun arguments, but I hope you think it through. If you’re a conservative or libertarian, would you be comfortable trusting your life to a leftist government, given how that’s played out around the world? If you’re a lefty, are you okay with Hitler’s cousin and best friend Trump having the power to wipe out leftists?
Armed commoners are your insurance against the truly massive violence governments can do, and that hostile groups can do to each other.
I just bought this Barska biometric gun safe. It has pretty decent reviews on Amazon. I've had it for a couple weeks and it works pretty good. I have all but one of my fingerprints registered to it so I don't need to be picky about it. But sometimes it takes a few "reads" to get it right and open the safe.
There is no way I would depend on biometric technology, in it's current form, to unlock my firearm in a time of need.
How about this propaganda book on Obama's childhood, that was made before the election was over. It's almost like a book issued to the children about the Glorious Leader.
That’s frightening. I thought campuses were being much more proactive about the door guards and other ways of securing classroom doors from active shooters.
You could get something like this if they’re not going to do anything about security.
It's goes back even further. Go read or listen to some Podcasts on the War of Independence. It's fascinating to hear the Founding Fathers debate gun rights, gun control, voting rights and how our National Government should be formed and most importantly States Rights vs Federal Rights vs Individual Rights. A great book I just finished is......
Friends Divided: John Adams and Thomas Jefferson https://www.amazon.com/dp/0735224714/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_vTvMBbPFTBQK5
Try Gunfight by Adam Winkler. It's not exclusively pro-gun, and not particularly partisan, but it's a good starting point for the current legal/political situation.
Well, that depends on what part of America you're in.

As a new American I could not figure out why my viewpoint was so different than folks from the coasts (born in the middle of Canada, brief fling with the coast then back to the big middle part and migrated south in the 90's). Then I saw an article about this book and things became clearer.
(that and following back my ancestry somewhat and finding out about things like the Highland Clearances)
This is another good read on the subject:
https://www.amazon.ca/Will-Shoot-Back-Resistance-Mississippi/dp/1479886033/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=we+will+shoot+back&qid=1558704997&s=gateway&sr=8-1
There is a book which I am beginning to read that addresses this, I believe.
http://www.amazon.com/Great-Debate-Edmund-Burke-Thomas/dp/0465050972/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1415980568&sr=8-1&keywords=The-Great-Debate-Edmund-Burke-Thomas-Paine-and-the-Birth-of-Right-and-Left
. . . or at least I hope addresses it. It holds up France as one pole and the U.S. on the other.
I read this book back in early 2007 right before I joined the Corps and the writer's CO had the call sign "Dark-Side Six" and I've always like it. So I kind of stole it. Not sure if there's any connection to your FOB
I fly and carry with Delta regularly. A couple of times a month. Most of the time the folks that are tasked with doing the zip ties are just as annoyed as I am. The solution is simple. Scissors. You are allowed to carry scissors on your flight. I carry THESE SCISSORS in my carry on. When I get my bag from the dude after zipping it up I pull my scissors out of my carry on and cut them off right in front of them. Usually I hand him/her the trash. I've never had one push back on me. There's nothing they can do. It's your property.
>All constitutional scholars understand that it was intended to protect the right of every US citizen to own firearms
Not true at all. In fact the author of the most recent and probably most exhaustive book ever written on the subject thinks that's a bunch of revisionist baloney. Check it out sometime.
But actually none of that really matters because we don't NEED TO know what the Founders intended the 2A to do because we don't live in 18th century America. We live in 21st century America and we need our laws to work for us, not them.
