    Dont have immediate access. Keep it in storage and give a friend the key if you can’t just like, have a friend keep it for legal or other reasons. I wouldnt keep a forearm in my house either, learning how to use one is still a good idea. But if you gotta ask a friend for your gun theres a pretty decent safety mechanicism there, not full proof of course but irs not like…in your house

    Also, realistically what would you do wirh it? Shoot the ice agents coming for you? That doesnt really help you in the long term, if you arent comfortable with a gun then you don’t really need to bother cause someone who isn’t comfortable isnt gonns be good at scaring cops via open carrying anyway

      training is part of being comfortable with a gun. People who are worried about CW kinda stuff relating to gun ownership aren’t very likely to do the CW kinda stuff at a range trip with the buddies, at an organized match, or on the protest line.

      there’s a lot of 2-story houses in those minneapolis neighborhoods. lots of overwatch angles for somebody with a suppressed rifle to take a shot without being a target for return fire.
