TIL guns are banned in blue states.
Gen 5 Glocks and a load of other popular handgun models are illegal for sale in California except to law enforcement and Hollywood. The Handgun Roster
There’s also the assault weapon ban that’s too complicated to explain quickly.
For sale, but not to own and you can buy it off roster as well.
Even the strictest state is less strict than most countries.
True CA is still less strict than most countries. I’ll note ‘off roster’ means imported with a magazine with 10 rounds or less, and sold through a private transaction at an FFL for a significant markup.
Nice little side hustle for more than a few cops.
There are 54 Glock models that are certified for sale in CA. Almost 1000 models from all manufacturers are certified. Plus private party transfers are legal, meaning you can just bring one in or have a friend give you one.
Thanks for the quick internet search but that is not how it works in reality. You cannot really just buy a Gen5 Glock 19 in Nevada and bring into California. You need to convert the mags to 10 rounds or less or bring it in mag-less. Then sell it through a private transaction. This usually comes at huge markup.
The 54 models you cited are all from Gen 3 or older. Why? They need to go through special testing for ‘safety’. Naturally law enforcement is exempt from these requirements.
The California Handgun Roster is an attempt to circumvent constitutional protections on handgun ownership by not implementing a strict ban. I get a lot of folks on Lemmy want to see guns banned but imo these laws use the same tactics as voter suppression in the US.
You’re on lemmy, not reddit. We don’t want gun control laws. Or any weapon control laws.
Anything the workers can’t have will be used against us, nuclear proliferation among states until there are no states, gun proliferation among workers until all of us are workers.
Have you ever met anyone actually from Vermont? Can you name a single city or place in Vermont? No, because its a mythical place which doesnt exist.
I knew someone who moved there, then they ceased all communication. So seems very plausible.
I’m gonna say… Vermont City. But I’m not gonna check if it’s exists
It would be even better if the mouthpiece was at the barrel and the trigger activates a built in lighter near the bowl piece. Maybe make a vape version as well where the barrel is the mouth piece and the magazine is the chamber.
I’d advise against that for muscle memory reasons mostly.
But more to the point, this looks like it was designed to be a functional gun and a functional bong. Probably not a good gun or bong, but it does both.
If you can’t tell the difference between your glong and your glock you probably shouldn’t own either.
I can just imagine someone getting too high and forgetting which part is the mouthpiece.
Can you imagine trying to clean a real bong like this. I would throw it out after a month.
Frequent cleanings would be necessary i think.
I love novelty guns. It just drops all the pretense and admits that our culture sees these objects as toys.
Shouldn’t use because of the lead powder
Pretty sure that bong is literally plastic
(With a low melting point at that)
good way to get Hunter Bidened
Is it a bung then?
Apparently there’s a music video too lol
