- Unironically suggesting the SKS as a usable rifle in the 21st Century when there are things like the AK and AR that cost only a bit more might result in a ban, it depends on how we feel.
-
- Discussion of hunting is acceptable but please put "CW: hunting" in post titles. Debating the ethicality of hunting is also fine, but keep it civil and don't derail other people's threads.

For to learn: a 22lr. 10/22 if you like rifle, Ruger mkiv or browning buckmark for pistol. Very little recoil, cheap to shoot, good fun guns.
For defense: a 9mm pistol if you want to conceal (biggest one you can reasonably conceal. Small guns are harder to shoot), or an AR-15 for home/community defense. There is a reason right wingers love this gun - it's great and easy to maintain.
Get a good light for your defense implement of choice, and a sling as well if it's a rifle.
