      Everyone that is comfortable with it should. But some training to go with it is just as important, if not more.

      why just one? buy two. don’t forget ammo.

      I recommend 9mm. common round, can be bought anywhere.

      It’s a bit expensive, but a Glock 19 is a good first handgun.

      stay away from Sig, especially the p320. it’s standard issue for police but has a record of just “going off” while holstered.

      don’t forget to get a cleaning kit and holster. also helps to take safety training and at least 12 hours at a shooting range.

      ranges may require you to buy their ammo since there’s specific range ammo as well as some cheaper ammo you buy online can be dangerous.

      good luck.

      Dude. You shoot someone and after you’re dead, Trump declares marshal law because you gave him the excuse he is looking for.

            What the fuck are you talking about? Who is my “leader” and who are we allied with? If you’re going to make vague accusations at me, don’t be a coward and delete your comment immediately after

              Somehow my reply went to the wrong comment, but also weird of you to try to dig it up. Go start fights elsewhere.

                “It’s weird of you to use your eyeballs to see a publicly visible comment in your inbox I made accusing you of some random shit while I was having a stroke. I’m gonna blame you for a fight I started”

                Actual dumbfuck behavior. If you come at me with baseless accusations because you’re mad at me for calling out fascists defending murder, I will out and shame you. Deal with it.

        Dude. You drive a car and they shoot you and you’re dead.

        Trump doesn’t need a legitimate excuse to do fucking anything, he does what he wants regardless of what you don’t do.
