If you in colorado there is a jamiacan black arms dealer in Denver. The shop is called On Point Arms, LLC | Windsor, Colorado Gun Store
You can purchase online and get it sent anywhere with the appropriate arms dealer certification. This is where I bought both my Ar15 a 9mm and a shotgun. I have my wife shooting the AR now. Shooting your gun on your own land is an amazing feeling. Plus you become proficient when you can practice all the time.
This is great, if we're going to be Black & armed we always want to support Black-owned gun stores. Thanks for this info.
Also, shooting on your own land is a blessing. I wish I had enough land where I could shoot without my neighbors calling the cops.

Thanks mate for the words of encouragement and being supportive in this my situation because it's something that I have battled for years now. I do in fact understand the importance of having my own gun/guns for safety reasons because of how the world we live in has been for a long time now but I need to do it being in the right frame of mine, otherwise it would be threat to my own safety.

You're very welcome, Maxwell. If you do ever decide that you want to buy a gun for your/your family's defense, feel free to ask any questions that you may have.

Fyi, Dr. King owned guns, and had armed security for himself and his family. Dr. King even applied for his concealed carry permit, but was denied.
Dr. King believed in peaceful protest, he rejected the idea of armed struggle, and he never encouraged violence. I believe in this ideology of Dr. King.

All of that, and Dr. King still owned firearms just like many other prominent peaceful heroes of the civil rights era.
Being a gun owner =/= being an advocate of violence.
You have a right to be a pacifist. This thread, however, is for current (and future) gun owners.
If you have nothing constructive to add about the thread topic, then please move along.

This is why I have to get verified soon. Im sure clowns that come around talking like that have to be spies and informants.

Definitely get verified. We've been pushing to get more people to do so (S/O to GwynShivers). Verification is the quick & easy way to show that you are who you say you are.
And you're right, anybody who wants Black people as a whole to be defenseless and unarmed is absolutely funny style.

No disrespect, but Jesus ain't gonna be enough, when race soldiers kick in your door! 💯
That's why I got GG, Aunty, and Grandma. Faith without work is dead. I got work so my faith gonna be strong if I need engage in processes which lead to funeral arrangements needing to be made.

My love for pump action shotguns is out of this world and it's why I got the very best of myself in Kel-Tec KSG Pump Shotgun 12 Gauge 18.5" Barrel. It's a bit costly but it's worth it.
Hmmm, Buck needs a big brotha! 💯

Reminds me of a movie I saw. Gang bangers tricked a crackhead to put on a vest & earn $20 & a rock.
The crackhead didn't know he was the target until the gang bangers started shooting at him! 🤣 He wasn't hurt, but he wasn't high at that moment either!
He snatched his money & his rock & said, "You could've told me, but get at me, when you need a test dummy"! 😂

Sorry about your friend traumatizing you. That was stupid & very dangerous. I've had a gun pulled on me, and it is definitely scary.

Most gun ranges will rent guns to you. If you want to try a rifle or a shotgun, that's a good way to practice before you purchase.

Ammo is becoming more available, but some calibres (.9mm especially) are still very expensive due to price gouging & increased demand during the pandemic & the last election.
FYI To tackle ammo prices what I like to do is buddy up. Me and Friend will go half on a 500 rounds or more and then we will split the ammo up. This way neither one of us are braking the bank and we can buy in larger quantities..

I'm tryna find a holster for my Glock Rollie. You recommend the Kydex? Is that the brand or the model?
Kydex is the material. It's the only type of holster I buy, and you can find some great IWB and/or OWB kydex holsters that are safe, comfortable, and affordable.

what are ya'll's opinions on revolvers? I was thinking about getting a nice cheap one like my grandpa had growing up.
My mom keeps a revolver, too!
Revolvers are good and reliable, but they're not as popular as they used to be.
I prefer a striker-fired semi auto, but I would definitely trust my family's safety to a revolver.
