as previously mentioned approximately 1,000,000 times, text posts are anything goes. Only link posts must be gun-related.
You want to post a scam link to an auction for totally legit gift-cards? put it in a text post. You want to post something you want the .win to know about but it isn't gun related? put it in a text post. You want M4M missed connection for that cutie patootie booty with the H&K that was winking at you at the range? put it in a text post.
link posts without guns or gun related things in them will get removed. Also, spam gets removed no matter link or text. Automated moderation for spam here sucks donkey balls so most of it is done manually. If your spam link for gift cards gets removed even though it was text post, that was likely human moderator removal. you can ask through modmail for reinstatement but modmail goes largely ignored most weeks.
also, all of you are supergay (or superstraight if that's how you roll)
My vote is for the flamethrower for the sole reason that it is 0% as practical and at least 135% more badass.
0% practical? Think of how a flamethrower would be for convincing some "mostly peaceful protesters" to go protest someone else. For that at least it's gotta be 80% practical.
Depending how far you wanna throw the flame, there are cheaper flamethrowers. Depending on how sketch you can deal with/your will to live could try rigging one together.
I always see .50BMG as gimmicky, but that doesn't stop me from wanting one.
I'm voting for the thrower. While it's a couple more high points in price, it could become a new hobby to learn and enjoy. I dunno where the fuck I'd store it though.
Expected lead time:12 months. Subject to change....
