Shitpost / Memes Is anybody weird like me and likes to check GunBroker to see what guns we could've owned...

Never crossed my mind tbh... I don't want to be saddened any more

I joined the party after handguns were banned and I like to look them up to see what I would have gone broke buying

u/TehSvenn Mar 21 '26

Sold my handguns before the ban ever came into view cause I wasn't ever shooting them. I probably still wouldn't be shooting them much, but I'm sad I can't have them back.

Canadian in Colorado, ditto.

Hearing the yanks complain about Colorado laws and restrictions makes me chuckle

How enforced are mag restrictions there?

3

u/DiomedesWrath Mar 21 '26

Every gun shop will pin a 15+mag or destroy it, other than that no one's policing them. A lot easier to achieve that level of deniability above 15 vs the 5 back home

No, I can't handle the sadness. I already have enough to be sad.

Cries in pink GSG...

SFRC has some ARs up for auction right now along with a bunch of handguns. It's so sad, they have a HK MR223 that was my dream gun back in the day. Now you can buy it and have it deactivated as a paperweight!

When woukd .50 Cals be available for defensive home needs?

u/Joeyjackhammer Mar 21 '26

Can buy a complete SOLGW rifle for the price of a modern sporter receiver, when you could buy one.

I’m a masochist so yes I do

u/DonAzuld Mar 21 '26

It’s not even the guns, but the price difference. We get bent over the pickle barrel up here for pricing.

u/BSDnumba123 Mar 21 '26

For guns, books, cell service, banking fees…

I’m being financially milked like a dairy cow.

Just thinking of that 1911 I won't have is enough.

u/AllDay1980 Mar 21 '26

I prefer to be let down by watching YouTube but this would work in a pinch.

u/zaphodbssecondhead Mar 22 '26

If you are going to day dream on gunbroker you need to find a bigger dream

u/CurlyWurly61 Mar 22 '26

Guns, land, homes, trucks, lifestyles, haha

u/goshathegreat Mar 21 '26

No, it just makes me more angry of what was taken from us.
