Are guns a good investment? The us is becoming more blue over time and you will have higher and higher crime and likely more and more gun restrictions over time.

Would hoarding piles of guns and bullets and selling them for 10x with the next AWB be a good idea?

Supreme Court won’t let a nasty ban happen but they’re a great investment if you’re in a blue or swing state. Also just a good investment safety wise, but that also depends on where you live, albeit, practicing with them is literally shooting money down the range.

To me, firearm investing breaks the cardinal rule of "Do not speculate". If your purchase requires changes in laws, certain presidents or parties to be in or out of office, or other special circumstances to give a decent return, you are essentially *gambling* and not investing.

Civil war would break out. The army isn't some super force. They got their ashes kicked by a bunch of rice farmers in flip flops. A bunch of goat herders in robes, etc, etc. How do you think the US even came to be? Ever heard of Lexington? Fucking brainlets, I swear. An armed citizenry resisting a military will defeat the military every fucking time, as they have throughout history since firearms became ubiquitous.

This guy is a coward who probably has never fired a gun in his life. As a veteran I can tell you that if there were a civil war, our armed forces would fragment under different leadership and there would be no overwhelming force. Also, pretty much no one aside from some mouthbreathing marines would open fire on civilians. You are absolutely fucking retarded.

Our military is really fucking good at killing other militaries and infrastructure. It isn't used against civilian populations which insurgents conceal themselves amongst. Even when we were napalming entire villages in Vietnam and killing women and children indiscriminately we still couldn't pull through to victory. There's no magic tech that protects you from some plainclothes guy in a crowd producing a pistol and shooting you in the back of the head. Also, in the event of a US civil war we could see incursions of other foreign militaries. It's not some simple thing, insurgencies are very complex, extremely difficult to squash, and absolutely require you to get the population on your side to combat them. That's why we took the "hearts and minds" strategy in Afghanistan, spending billions on propaganda and bribes to try and get the civilians to turn on the insurgents. It didnt work in most cases either.

>>11939098
Yeah, thanks. That'll work... jesus christ. Go on liveleak and tell me all about how armor cant be destroyed by homemade bombs. 1 multi million dollar tank can easily be destroyed by $50 in household chemicals and a little know-how. You guys live in an absolute fantasy land.

And if the US slips up and kills a few "innocent" civilians (really, the innocent ones would be the freedom fighters), there would be chimp outs on an unprecedented level among everyone who isn't willing to shoot the cops but still disapproves ( aka the majority of the US population).

If 10% of the population went to war against a unified military (it wouldn't be unified in civil war, but let's say it is), 10% would outnumber the military 40:1, have the advantage of concealment, and knowledge and access to infrastructure the military depended on. I literally took a course that covered domestic civil war theory at CBRN. Guess what?
