Welcome to /v/guns! This is the home of firearms enthusiasts on Voat. If you're into things that go boom, this is the place for you!
RELATED SUBVERSES
The posting rules are below. Violations of any of these rules will result in post removal. Repeated, systematic violations by one user will result in a ban if all of the moderators agree that it's needed. If you see violations of rules 3 or 4 occurring, don't hesitate to mail a screenshot of the activity to the moderation team.
Moderators are held to a higher standard on this subverse and the rules that they must follow are also posted below. If a moderator is acting against the moderator rules, take a screenshot and message it to the head moderator, @Thjoth. Repeated violations will result in their removal from the mod team.
SUBSCRIBER RULES:
-
All content MUST be related directly to firearms. For our purposes, a firearm is defined as a device that uses rapidly expanding gases to launch a projectile. Size doesn't matter, so this includes everything from your .22 to a naval cannon.
-
No memes, image macros, or reaction gifs are allowed.
-
Violation of the global user agreement will not be tolerated.
-
Repeated personal attacks upon or harassment of a user across different unrelated threads will not be tolerated.
-
No spam. If you want to promote your personal site, blog, or company, then make sure you participate EXTENSIVELY in other posts as part of this community. The account of the Tennessee Arms Company on Reddit is a good example of commercial members of the industry participating in a community in a way that betters both the community and the company.
-
All politics posts must go into the stickied politics megathread, which is refreshed on the 1st of every month. If something big is happening (eg. the M855 ban), the moderators will create a specific megathread for that event at their discretion.
MODERATOR RULES:
-
Moderators will follow all normal rules.
-
When removing a post or comment, moderators will copy and paste the rule violation that led to the removal in a reply.
-
Moderators will not take any action whatsoever if a rule from the sidebar is not violated.
-
Bans must be discussed among moderators. A single moderator cannot ban someone without talking to the other moderators.
-
Moderators will maintain active accounts. Inactive moderators who haven't posted or spoken with another moderator in 30 days will be removed.
-
Moderators will not personally attack, harass, or otherwise be complete dicks to members, either during normal conversation or while carrying out their duties.

National (constitutional, too?) Carry would be excellent.
I'm traveling through 7 states this week and it took 3 hours to figure out how and if I could carry along the way.
I'm pretty sure I got all 7 sets of laws figured out and memorized, but... Yeesh.

He did specifically mention constitutional concealed carry in that policy.

I don't have to have a permit to speak freely in each state, though, or to be free from unreasonable search and seizure.
"Constitutional Carry" refers to being able to carry without a permit.

This guy gets it. He fully understands the right to keep and bear arms. He also seems to understand the difference between being willing to defend one's country and one's government.
Good for him.

I really believe we knocked the ball out of the park with his election as far as gun rights go. Even if he just appoints a few pro gun supreme court justices, it will be huge.

Just please coral him on other issues. Yes, Trump, I'm talking about your bat-shit-crazy immigration plans.
I'm a bit worried that he's not gonna become the Prez we need, but some complete goofball. Still, the system pretty much broke, so mission accomplished on a most peaceful revolution that may give us some sane gun change.

Nothing batshit about enforcing the law through tighter security at our border. And nothing batshit about travel bans from terror hotbeds...

It would be great if Trump would look at the NFA act. I can't see the act being repealed entirely, but at least we could have the provisions regrading suppressors removed.
Its a pain in the ass and very expensive to legally own a suppressor these days.

And for the love of all things holy, please make an SBR follow pistol regulations. Even my leftist friends laugh when I tell them that I can carry buy a pistol no problem, but if I want to buy something that's the same caliber but 10x as hard to conceal beacuse it's 20" long, THAT is fingerprints and a $200 tax.

This is the very best statement I've ever seen a president make on gun rights in my (51) life. So glad I voted for him. No more insanity of blaming ISIS terror attacks on the 2nd. amendment.
