A gun is for self defense and to protect loved ones. PS5 is not going to be usable as a weapon beyond an object to throw at someone.

Idk sounds pretty effective to me. I'd like to see you take a PS5 to the face and brush it off.

You're just as likely to stop an intruder by throwing a ps5 at them.

Because people already bought their PS5 with their Stimmies already.

Cookware makes bomb ass food. Golf clubs are amazing for beating people up. All guns do is pew pew and only if you also bought ammo.

The PS5 being thrown needs a lot of circumstances to be effective, like range, element of surprise, and how hard it is thrown and where they are hit, plus it can only be done once.

In a stress situation a gun is much more effective having multiple rounds, easier to use, and less margin of error or the attacker getting back up and killing you.

You do not want to be in close with a home invader, and the golf club assumes there is only one and they are not physically bigger and stronger. A gun is called the great equalizer for a reason, and no one who buys a gun is not going to buy ammo for that gun.

Stop being childish thinking melee is better then a gun and that being in arms reach is better then keeping your distance.

I'd rather people used a PS5 to resolve minor disputes and loss of face.

Too many seem to prefer guns for that purpose.

A repeal of the second amendment is likely to accomplish the same goal and not cost as much.

I was looking into gun ownership. But pibble ownership is too far even for me. You have to shoot your gun to make it pew pew. But you never know what will make the pibble start nanny doggin' a toddler, shit is scary man.

Guns kill deer and such so you can feed your family if you know how to process it. Having game in your diet is a nice bit of variety as well.

I live in the city, where the fuck is I gonna hunt deer. Best I can do is go up into the mountains and hunt cougars and bears but they don't sound tasty. I'm not even sure it's allowed to shoot them unless it's self defense.

And obviously this topic isn't about everyone either you big goose. Obviously if you live in area where hunting is still a major part of life, you're gonna have hunting rifles, no one said otherwise.

Both a PS5 and a gun will let you live out those power fantasies where you take out all the bad guys because you're such a hero.

However, only one of them puts your family at risk of getting shot in their own home, and it's not the console.

I live alone tbh so it's not a concern. Tbh I just need a weapon I don't have to be too proficient with or I'd be looking into katana ownership instead since that would look way more epic in my living room. All I have rn is a small knife.

I hear spears are easy to use but those are pretty big, I want something small because big things intimidate me.

Quality and production run dependant.

Want a limited edition beautifully engineered, hand made masterpiece, loads of money.

Mass produced piece of shit, unsurprisingly a lot less.

The revolvers are the cheap ones where I look. I mean there's probably more expensive model, but I've seen one for around $200.

I guess they're mechanically simpler?

Personally as someone from a country where gun ownership is difficult I think I'd want a revolver. Possibly that's more more about my love of immediately understandable tech, like clockwork and carburettors.

There's a joy in seeing how everything works at macro level, that we lose in the modern era.

It is a gun. A weapon. Not even an actually artistic weapon like a katana. I'm not buying the gun to display it like the fucking Mona Lisa.

Revolvers can be pretty complicated inside. My Glock 17 I can disassemble to its component parts with little more than a pen, my Ruger GP100 has quite a few moving parts.

It's engineering still, and really good long lasting engineering and materials cost money.

The opposite also exists, but I'm assuming you'd prefer the explosive force in the ammunition didn't end up directed into your own hand?

My point was I'm just looking for a gun that does gun things. I'm not looking for a display gun, who would I even show that to? I don't know anybody
