When SHTF Jow Forums the weapon of choice isn't going to be a firearm, no matter how you try to justify it, rather it's going to be a weapon of old, bows, crossbows, sword, etc
And besides. Swords and bows are easier and more simpler to make than guns.. Besides bows and sword requires skill which would give then an edge over those who prefer guns who at best waste what little ammo they have by shooting poorly
>SHTF >old, bows, crossbows, sword, etc >not the word of God never gonna make it Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
Mason Barnes
Nah buddy, we're not gonna run out of guns and ammo for a looong time. The only reason bows and swords and such would become the main weapons would because worldwide apocalypse level SHTF made it so there aren't enough people to make and sell guns anymore. Even then they would last many years.
Yes, bows and swords do require skill, but you're retarded if you think that's an advantage. Guns are so vastly superior to both that even an average shot could easily kill a proficient swordsman or archer.
These things are in museums for a reason and LARPing with them while stuttering about how skilled you are is a quick way to get a bullet in the head in a SHTF scenario. How do you imagine this shit would go down in the real world? That your Hunger Games bow fantasies mean shit to someone with 30 rounds of 5.56?
Leo Young
Aren't bows and crossbows inherently shittier predecessors to guns? Were you born this stupid or do you have a degree?
Dylan Young
I have a slingshot with plenty of material to make precise assault bands out of the strongest elastic. GG rabbits
Jack Cruz
Weapons tech will never devolve to a point before muzzleloaders. You can make black powder with piss and charcoal.
Eli Baker
>when shtf >anime image You know how I know you're a manchild little autistic guy?
I make guns from scrap metal all the time it’s not that hard.
Dylan Fisher
Damn, what did that poor, innocent rifle's original finish do to you?
Jose Reyes
If i'm being realistic, a crossbow But if i want some fun i do think that a giant sword would be great to fight people with. I'm talking like a claymore big, because any bigger is stupid
It's a picture edgy fags like to spam because they think it triggers everyone who isn't them.
Christian Young
A dead cat is pretty low on Jow Forums when it comes to edgy.
Josiah Parker
Good thing they're redditors. >cuck anime LOL
Austin Morris
Crossbow would be pretty decent for hunting without attracting unwanted attention, I'll give you that.
Jaxon Ramirez
The only way I see this happening is in small towns or villages who don't or couldn't have access to enough resources for electricity and steelmaking capabilities to manufacture guns or bullets
Ian Turner
>big tough guy kills little kitty cats
you know how i know you're a manchild little autistic guy?
Carter Morgan
>electricity to make guns holy shit dude when do you think they were invented
Ian Hernandez
So are you going to ignore the fritz-haber process?
David Ward
>doesn't know this image is posted often on here user are you a new fag?
Daniel Mitchell
Doesn't make him less wrong
Elijah Cook
it clearly works
Joseph Green
Not an argument
James Foster
yes it does newfag
Gavin Cooper
Feral cats are arguably the worst invasive species on the face of the planet, almost as destructive as feral hogs or nutria. Spay and neuter your little predator before you let it roam around outside.
Joshua Jones
AND I'M PRROUUUUUUD TO BE AN AMERICAAAAAN
Easton Turner
None of that
William Wright
When do you think guns were invented? You can absolutely make them without electricity, we've barely been making them WITH electricity for a few hours of the day that guns have been alive.
Nathaniel White
It would be a pretty neat world, you'd have room for everything from wooden pikes, to repeating crossbows, to matchlocks, to prewar revolvers and shotguns that have been hastily converted to black powder, to sten guns and homemade Mac 10s, depending on how much infrastructure survives in a specific area
I hope you also know how to run a trapline and forage. Using a slingshot for opportunity hunting while procuring food through other means could be viable; relying on it as your primary means of food acquisition is just starving with extra steps.
Robert Lewis
Won't matter since people will forget how preserve food for winter
Joshua Rivera
>you must live out in the country that would make it easier to feed fudd weapons and ARs
Christian Wood
How so?
Brayden Barnes
So any reason why this statement triggers Jow Forums
Connor Hughes
For as long as I'll be alive in SHTF, the weapon of choice will be a firearm.
Brody Myers
You're too stupid to re resourceful If SHTF you can make you own gunpowder with shit and piss (not joking) cast your own lead bullets that you've scavenged materials for or mined out of the ground. You can also make your own electricity too The modern world isn't magic, it's just the result of people more innovative than you youtube.com/watch?v=P5iJZjw8k40
Casings can also be reloading and annealed for basically ever if you know what you're doing. Primers are gonna be hard to come by, but they are sold by the thousands for basically nothing.
Sorry to ruin your fantasy
Owen Gutierrez
you just need a year and a place to store a smelly pile of piss while collecting shit
Austin Adams
Because it's true.
Cooper Sullivan
>making piss and shit powder or arrows is somehow more likely than simply stockpiling enough ammo to last a lifetime in electric boogaloo
