I had a guy buy the house up the street from me. He saw me loading a few guns in my trunk to go to the range and came up to me and requested I remove the guns from the neighborhood because he had a family and they made them feel threatened. So I really enjoy cleaning my guns in my driveway now.
I would tell him very politely that as long I am on my property and not threatening anyone, and its is none of his business what I am doing as long I am obeying the law.......he can now get off my lawn!
Idiot obviously just wanted to cause a fuss cause he clearly didn't feel that threatened since he just walked up to you.
That just made my day
Yeah, if he was really threatened he would have hid under his bed instead of confronting you. That's what I'd say to anyone who claimed they were threatened by my gun ownership, then mention casually that if somebody did try to hurt the guy's family I'd do everything I could to intervene since he doesn't have the tools to protect them and I would feel a moral obligation to not just watch as he and his family become victims, seeing as I'm a good neighbor.
I clean mine in the garage, I live in Hawaii
Just moved to a more rural house and was welcomed by the sound of a rifle mag dump at the neighbor's house. I moved to the right place.
Where is this? What state? thanks
😂 I want to live there!
Shouldve dumped a mag in return haha
I knew when I went to the hospital my friends house in the county and heard gunfire in all directions on Saturday I would be coming back a lot more.
Wow. I had no idea.Georgias home target range rules were that restrictive. Florida is much more relaxed, not even required to be out of city limits if the neighborhood properties are over 1 acre. There are even exceptions to that rule.
Zillow needs a "Can have gun range on property" checkbox :(
I had a "feud" with a neighbor for over two years. The only neighbor we had for a few miles. He lived less than a quarter of a mile away. We would shoot and he would immediately start playing music as loud as possible and driving his local jacked up truck up and down the road peeling rubber up and down it. I would always throw my hands up like what's up? What the hell? It went on and on. Until one day we were leaving for a month long vacation eventually so I went and asked him about watching the property for us. I was like, man I know we have obviously had issues but could we bury this hatchet. He said sure just make sure to invite him over for the next cookout and shooting day. I was perplexed and asked, is that being smart-ass? He then explained he was always pissed because we never introduced ourselves and invited him over! The whole mess was because we were just rude in his eyes 👀
😂
Sounds like you got a good friend.
Cool ass neighbor.
I dont blame him !! That was rude !!
When I shoot at my friends house, shortly after we start shooting we hear the neighbors start shooting ;)
hehe 'Murica
Kyle Clark I wish I had neighbors like that. I can't even shoot my .22
My friend won't let me shoot at his house...
ive done this
For real... this happens everytime.
I had a issue with a neighbor here in Michigan that called the cops every single time I went out and shot. She was told several times that there was nothing that could be done because I had a proper backstop and was on agricultural zoned property and there is not a noise ordinance. Eventually the police got tired of wasting their time and told her if she called again she would be in trouble for wasting police resources.
The Don I have a serious issue with police saying “there is nothing we can do” as though there is some crime being committed but their hands are tied. This enforces the idea that the mere presence of the guns is some criminal act.
Sarah Watson I agree. I’ve thought that myself. I’d just flat out say that they called the Police for nothing, because there’s no crime being committed. Therefore, there’s nothing an officer can do about the caller’s sensitive feelings. I like to think of myself as a nice guy, and if there’s something that genuinely is hurting someone that I’m doing, then yeah, I’ll stop. Like a medical disorder, etc. all you have to do is be a decent human being and speak man-to-man. And if there’s a legitimate reason that I shouldn’t/ should avoid shooting for a certain reason, I’ll do what I can, but I’m not going to stop exercising my rights because you feel I’m hurting you in some way.
Happened just out side of Kalamazoo guy driving his old clunker on i94 said clunker breaks down for the umpteenth time owner frustrated by clunker pulls off on the shoulder (this happened late at night) draws his 1911 colt and blows hell out of clunker state trooper heard the ruckus came roaring up arrests the owner for damage to property hauls guy before the judge judge dies laughing releases driver as there is no law in Michigan against shooting ones own car! Trooper gets pod at judge calls local game warden has driver cited under f&g code for shooting too close to the road!
The Don Be an ambassador for our gun community. Acknowledge her fear of guns, and make some minimal effort at compromise-ie let’s say you work 9-5 everyday; then tell her you want to be a good neighbor so you won’t shoot until after 5 every day-something like that where you’re not really sacrificing much. Maybe work with your smaller calibers for a couple weeks so she gradually gets used to the sound.
We gun enthusiasts are our own worst enemies. We get all huffy and blow our opportunity to show gun-fearers that we are good people. I’ve done it myself and regret it. Life is good.
@@sarahwatson7692
I always take that comment more as "sorry you have a personal issue but we can't help with that". Kinda like wanting to help your neighbor move but having a bad back. There's just nothing they can do legally to help that situation.
My neighbor called the cops on me once. They showed up (we've been friends for years) they shot a few rounds with my guns. Then went to my neighbor and said what I was doing was completely legal... Epic fail
I need these kind of cops where I live
A few years before my grandpa passed away he shot a coyote from the kitchen table with a model 70 super grade in .25-06, and the concussion shattered the lights above the kitchen table.
Absolute Chad.
@@soundtreeatmsn no he means 25-06. That's why he said it lol
@@harleysosbe9776 that's why Google exists :) 25-06 has been around for a while
Worth it
nice bro i would hav probably used a 12 gauge slug or buck shot lol
Where I'm from, in rural Virginia, if you fire a weapon and the neighbors a mile away hear it, they fire their guns too. Its sort of a way of saying hello. Calibers then begin the increase as if there's some sort of competition. Then a few days later you'll run into them and they'll say with a smile, "What are you doing making all the racket"? "Oh..You know... That coffee can was looking at me wrong again". lol
lol awesome
Bwahahahaha this is LITERALLY exactly how it is in the rural part of North Florida I live in. If my buddy and I start plinking, we can literally hit the stop watch and bet how long it is before other farmers do the same thing.
Same in North Florida (the real south Florida). We were firing at a buddies and the guy next to us calls over the fence asking what we are shooting and proceeds to fire on his range
Classic! Yeah Gannon we definitely live in a part of Florida that most people don't even know exists. Its amazing how folks think Florida is all subtropical and plasticy like Miami. When the reality is that we are the deep south as soon as you get 15 miles inland or out of miami-dade
Eh I would argue that anything south of Orlando is Yankeeville
I got a story; not so much about a guy being anti-gun, more so just a guy that was anti fun.
About 10 years ago we had a neighbor that was just an absolute tw@t. Called the cops whenever there was an inkling of noise (when he moved from his previous subdivision, the subdivision actually threw a large party celebrating him leaving). Most commonly he would call when some buddies and I were out on the dirt bikes; at the time they were just small bore 4 stroke trail bikes that were VERY quiet. After the first time the cops were called, we decided to not ride after 4pm on weekdays, and only 12-3PM on weekends. Even with that, he still called.
A few months after that, I believe it was around some holiday (either 4th of July or Memorial Day) we were shooting blanks through our softball launcher. Essentially a very, very large potato cannon. Again, the cops were called. The first officer showed up; we explained what we had and what we were doing. He asked us to shoot it off, to which we happily obliged. He said "Holy shit! That thing is SWEET!!", got on the radio, called in two other township officers and said "You guys need to get over here and check this thing out!!!". That process repeated itself until there were 3 township officers, 2 sheriffs, and a state cop in our driveway, shooting the thing off and having a great time. I looked over to the house of the neighbor that made the initial call. Saw him walk outside, look at what was going on, hang his head, and walk back inside.
We haven't had an issue since.
I love that awkward moment when someone realizes they're a dick. hahahahaha!
Nice story!
That's a great story haha
That's funny!!!
+Rocketninja200 reminds me of key and peele
Found out someone within earshot of one of the more convenient shooting spots around town had PTSD and it stressed him out to hear gunfire all the time. I shoot suppressed/drive a little further now and I'm okay with that.
We need to look after each other, I appreciate your consideration. Now the guy that put his acreage house on the hill above my friends gun range in my opinion does not deserve the same consideration.
Working stuff out for a win for each party is the adult thing to do. Right on.
I had a neighbor that i turned into a gun nut a few years ago. he was an anti gun guy most of his life until he met me lol but anyway, he had the same kind of situation where, he was robbed several times at gun point (of which he knew for a fact was the same guy because of a key chain lanyard that the guy had hanging out of his pocket). one day i caught up with him and he ended up telling me how he was robbed again not even a week before. so me being the generous person that i am (and knowing this guy wasn't necessarily made of money) i just told him, hey i have a little 22 that i never shoot and just sits in my closet and do you want to go to the range with me sometime and learn to shoot and ill just give you this 22 to have in case you need it? he agreed. so we went to the range and i taught him basic gun safety and how the gun works and how to aim and whatnot. so about a month later he was robbed by that same guy again, and luckily he heard the guy coming through the door and went and grabbed that little 22, met the guy in the hallway and pointed the gun at the robber. robber quickly fled the scene and no rounds were fired. ever since then this guy has been totally pro gun pro second amendment and has his own little arsenal of rifles and ammo. as far as i know he hasn't been robbed since.
thank you sir for teaching him how to use a firearm safely and how to protect himself , i have much respect for you , may god bless you both
Good job! I hope he realizes you may have saved his life.
and that history makes me wonder if anti-gun crackheads are on the thieves side? if they aren't on the workers side, then they must be on the opposite side...right?..............
nice one david, your a top bloke!
An anti-gunner is nothing more than a fervent supporter of the 2A who hasn't been a victim of a crime yet or hasn't actually discovered how fun guns really are.
An old Army buddy of mine was the rarest of types: A conservative, pro-2A guy who had never fired a gun outside of the military. I took him to the range at let him shoot my 1300 Defender and Glock 21. He now has a small arsenal in his house. I let him shoot 7 rounds of light birdshot to get used to the feel of it, then had him load a 3-inch magnum buckshot round. Suffice it to say, the flash and recoil surprised him. Good times.
That's why I always walk around naked in my backyard, they're so pleased with that it offsets their hatred for my guns, so they actually think I'm an ok guy.
is your name George? my grandma had a neighbor that did that....
lol
Me to
lmao
lol
We got an anti-gun group trying to shut down a friend's private range that has been there since 1940, his range happens to be adjacent to the local Police range so its not about noise especially since the neighbor who originally started all the legal bullcrap is over 1 mile away and the highway that runs through there is louder than the gun range.
that makes no sense lol
Happened my old gun club. Like the kind written about in Field and Stream decades ago. Wall full of Distinguished experts' medals. Started over a hundred years ago. Lost their outdoor range (except for archery) as town, to shut them down, put a grade school behind the targets. Now indoors only. New danger is red flag order.
I live in a pro gun neighborhood. Everyone has lots that are 2-5 acres and have prior military experience. When one neighbor starts running his weapon, there will be 2-4 others running with their range bags and something new to shoot. I'm proud to say we have established a respect for one another far more than other neighbors experience. When we have a disagreement, ( usually about a football or basketball game ) it's halted right there. We haven't had any break-ins or murders in 30 years. I hope we are ready if that day comes.
I find it funny how rural communities are like that. One guy shoots his pistol, then an old man starts plinking with a 22, and then some kid starts shooting his gun like rambo out in the wood lines. When one starts they all come out of the woodwork.
I live in a real rural town, in a real liberal state. It's damn comforting hearing all the other neighbors start shooting around the same time on the weekends lol. One starts, within ten minutes a couple hundred rounds from every direction are going off 😂 but we always keep it to reasonable hours, since our commie state doesn't allow suppressors
That is like when one dude starts mowing his lawn, every other dude feels obligated
My neighbor shot through the trees and hit my hot tub. The kids were 10 feet away. I wasn't home and my wife tried to talk to them about it. They blew her off and were pretty rude, so the sheriff got involved. I try to be a good neighbor, but that hurt the relationship pretty bad.
some people just aren't responsible enough to own guns, that's where law enforcement unfortunately has to get involved.
He should expect return fire next time!
Those are the people who ruin guns for us
I'm soo sorry you had to experience an irresponsible and unthinking individual not being mindful of his surroundings, and the awesome reponsibility that comes with releasing projectiles.
If somebody was shot missing my kids by 10 feet I would have hurting them pretty bad
For my 18th birthday I went to my friends farm to shoot. At the end we wanted to all get in a line and shoot at the same time till we all ran out of ammo. I had my AR-15, a buddy had a m1 garand, another friend had a 12 gauge, another friend had a ruger 10/22, and another friend had a .17 hmr. We all shot at the same time as fast as possible...a couple minutes later a cop drove by (it's a small town so we knew who the cop was) and he saw us and just waved...we waved back and kept going.
😂 Classic
Certainly trumps my 18th
cool story bro
+MicroMicro if he wasn't working I bet he would have lol
Wish I had a 1000 dollar rifle at 18. My car wasn't much more than that lol.
The neighbor adjacent to me was anti gun until I stopped murder with my shotgun next door. Now he calls me over whenever he needs some critter taken care of. it's only a matter of time before he's out at the range with me.
how did you stop a murder? just curious it sounds like a cool story.
+A FDGFGCFG I'm wondering the smart thing
Tell story plz
Spots random person at the door, immediately 360 no scopes the front door from the upstairs.
Found my neighbor strangling his wife in his driveway. I heard something going on and took my rem 870, glad I did, racked a shell and told him to get the fuck off her. He did but came at me a few times, was about to unload on him when another neighbor showed up and got him settled down. He plead guilty to felony assault and only got 6 months of anger management classes. He told the other neighbor that if I hadn't of stopped him he would have killed her.
One thing about my neighbors one lady is anti gun and my other neighbor and myself have Morse code conversations with our AR15s. Granted our anti gun neighbor has only ever called the cops once.
Lmao Morse code
had a guy come out and start cussing me while me and 6 other guys where shooting safely. didn't say hi or nothing. Just started cussing me. What sort of a dummy starts cussing a bunch of guys with guns he doesn't know? Even the sheriff said he was a nut
Terry White Just cuz you have guns, do you really think that guy should have felt too scared to cuss you out? Come on! He knew you guys weren’t going to shoot him. Why does everybody seem to think that having a gun will make others around you scared to say something?
Because anti-gunners want to act like we're all killers to further an agenda but in reality they know we'd never hurt anyone unless we absolutely had to. That's why he yelled without worry.
@@mmarciniak thats a very mature way to think about things. Maybe you shouldnt walk up and start cussing people no matter what they have in their hands lol
"I'm scared of you nuts with guns, so I'm going to come up and shout obscenities at you while you are shooting!"
Whoa, he was cussin'???
Here in Missouri, when I shoot I swear to god, people hear me shooting and in response go out and shoot a louder gun LOL.
Missouri boys unite
On everything i love i live in missouri this is so tru😂😂🇺🇸🇺🇸
Truuuuuueeeeeee
Same in rural Arkansas and Tennessee. Have a buddy in rural Tennessee and when I shoot as his house, the neighbors pull out a cannon to show us up lmao.
🤣
I remember a buddy of mine who trains state police on his farm one day this anti gun "person" called the cops one them for shooting and the best part was it was state police training so when they got the report one of the instructors walked over and told them it was a police training ground and in short told them to shit their mouth and deal with it
That's hilarious.
In this mans defense the letter i is pretty close to the letter o on the keyboard. Lmao
Similar story: Years ago two of my friends rented a duplex in the city. Me being the only one who owned firearms, suggested multiple times that they each buy one for home protection. After some time, one friend bought a revolver from me, and the other purchased his own.
One day, one of them came home and heard something coming from upstairs. He grabbed his gun and proceeded to investigate. Upstairs he was confronted with an intruder pointing a gun at him, and my friend shot him in the heart at point blank range. It was also the first round, out of his first gun, the first time he ever shot.
Thank God he chose to defend himself. However, I do wish he had trained beforehand. Luckily everything worked out.
Thanks for the video, guys. God bless.
@john Hartman- I guess your friend decided to defend his property and life.
Jon Hartman do you have a link to the news report, or the police report? This sounds like episode one of “things that never happened”
@@alanthesalamander2327 yeah absolutely there definitely not thousands and thousands amd thousands of times and reports of homeowners successfully defending themselves every year. Completely absurd claim right.
Blunts 304 This is Hollywood fiction. He heard an intruder, went to investigate and saw a gun pointed at him. At that point he lifted his gun, aimed, and shot him through the heart.... Stay tuned for the next episode of things that never happened.
@@alanthesalamander2327 lmao I get what you're saying
“I shoot my barret.. i shoot my cannon.. I shoot anything in between” god bless America 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@MysticalLlama everyone needs an anti material rifle.
Both of my neighbors are former veterans and the day that we moved into our house we introduced ourselves to them, and I also explained to them that I was an avid hunter/shooter/sportsman and not to panic if they see me come out of the house with an AR or AK. Both of them laughed it off and said at least they know where to go when the SHTF! Great guys!
I text my neighbor whenever I want to squeeze off a few rounds just because they have a baby and I don't want to wake it up if it's napping haha It's just the human thing to do
This is why silencers should be legal, so we can be courteous neighbors
Eric Kyle silencers are legal
@@landerjames8772 I'm well aware they are, and they should remain so.
@@landerjames8772 they may be legal but the laws could be better on them. Like removing the $200 tax on them.
FRANK ISBEEFY why would ATF stop collecting $200...lol never gonna happen
just build a good burm so when the police show up they will get distracted by your craftsmanship
J C yeah I’m in the same kind of situation. In my area of NC, the only ranges nearby that are over at least 300 yards are mostly first responder-police kinda establishments. Luckily we’ve found a place about half an hour south of us with a 550 yard range which is perfect for what we want to be shooting at the moment. It’s always a good idea to have some LEO and Military contacts as well lol
Nice
I'm the real rusty shackleford
Right...stray shots give shooters a bad name. Safety is the first thing to consider.
@@darrenglover2126 No you're not, I am
Here in Austria shooting in your backyard is legal if you have a proper backstop and a fence around your whole property so nobody walks into the line of fire by accident. Your Neighbors could still complain to the police because of the noise and silencers are illegal.
There's a lot of empty old wine cellars to rent or buy where you can shoot as much as you want and no one is going to hear anything. Most people still go to public ranges where you can also meet other people and share news.
i am 13 years old and i live in Washington state and i showed my anti gun parents this and they let me buy a mussel loader and all the supplys i needed !!!
That's awesome!! Congratulations! Stay safe!
Thats awesome hopefully your parents won't be as anti gun
Good for you. I went that same route at that age. Now I am building muzzleloaders from scratch. Very fun :)
i hope so!
+Jackson Lindorfer Next you have to move onto a bolt action, I suggest a Swedish Mauser for a new shooter.
I live in California.... talk about Anti-Gun Neighbors.
May I recommend you relocate to Texas...
or oregon..
Keenen Johnson Don't you have a problem with commiefornians migrating north and bringing their bad politics with them?
It's going to happen. It's happened so quick in the past 10 years. I was born here In Springfield 24 years ago and it use to be a pretty big town with small population. In ten years it grown exponentially. I've lost my town to Mexicans who run down real estate (my childhood home was beautiful in 2000, I've recently revisited it and it's falling apart due to neglegent home owners) and blacks who ensure streets are not safe at night anymore. Call it stereotypical or racist or whatever that you argue... My towns not the same due to population.. whites are minority in alot of neighborhoods.
I'm stuck in cali as well, waiting to move to Texas, Arizona, or utah
Isn't it lovely how cops are paid to enforce the law, when they have no idea what is or isn't even legal? I've noticed this is something that happens EVERYWHERE.
To be fair, theres alot of shit to remember
@@recklesssquirel5962 That, and they don't have time to look up the code before reporting to the incident, as there may be more than a civil disturbance with firearms involved.
LE training is more military tactics than law enforcement these days. You get a week of law training in my state during academy. Have to do 40 hours of CE every year after academy. It is absurd. I was constantly schooling fellow deputies trying to get them to take an interest in what they're paid to do. I studied the law, precedent, constitutional law, etc. for years before I was sworn in. Sadly most aren't interested in upholding the federal and applicable state constitutions, they are on a power trip and do whatever in the hell they want. This is why I left LE.
@@defeatignorance8681 So i assume you worked in Illinois then.
The problem is we have to many pointless, redundant, and ridiculous laws. What we need is enforcement of standard and basic laws and liberty in everything else....the average American commits 3 felonies a day without knowing it, those felonies are not enforced because of "common use or practice". Why criminalize good people?
i had some folks moved into s.w. virginia where i am originally from they kept calling the cops on people because they would hear gunshots the sheriff finally got tired of the calls he told them, folks around here have guns they shoot them if y,all call us again for gunshots we will arrest you they quit calling.
can you make a gun gripe on anti gun parents or anti gun family members
I second this
plz do
Yes oh my God
Yes!
you don't need approval from anyone, as long as you own your own house then you're fine. buy whatever you want as long as you own the property you will have the guns on.
Love the deer story - my Dad back in the late 40's shot a deer from the kitchen window in their hunting lodge in northern Michigan. His "weekend" trip literally ended 15 minutes after he arrived and he tells me that story of how he did it with all his brothers and half-brothers from the Detroit PD standing there in amazement all the time.
I think that’s honestly the best argument for having a suppressor, it’s to be courteous to the neighbors and to house guests, it’s not making a noise disturbance
Especially if it’s after July 4th when people are hung over, that head ache is so much worse if you hear shooting neighbors. I always throw on a suppressor after those days and so do others and it has made everyone happy.
Talking to your neighbors is always the best way to resolve any neighborly dispute. From fence lines to berms to loud music, just talking to someone will reslove 99.44% of the time its like ivory soap
Agreed. Seems today in our HOA people spend more time bitching on the HOA page instead of just going and talking to their neighbors.
Social media had done a lot of negative things...
When I was 17 years old, I got into shooting for the first time. And during my senior year of high school, I was on a robotics team that treated me like scum. One day, I decided to talk to some team members about airsoft. However, a girl who claimed she liked me eavesdropped that conversation. She then decided to spread a violent rumor that I bought real machine guns and would take/use them on a school robotics trip to Chicago. My principal then confronted me the next day, interrogated me, and made me sign a statement against my will that it was all a hoax. To add insult to injury, the girl who spread the rumor got off scotch-free, and I didn't go on the trip. It was an embarrassing and frightening ordeal.
See? This is why our irrational fear of a machine must end. People need to understand that you can kill someone just as easily driving into them, using a chainsaw on them, or a knife. Even a garden hoe would suffice. Heck I could use my underwear to strangle someone to death! But am I going to do that? No! Because I'm not a psychopath. XD It's not about the tool, it is who uses them.
you can sue the school now as a adult now and if you sue the school it will make the school look bad and force the girls into the spotlight and she will regret causing you hell in that part of your life since what goes around comes around.
That is definitely not a high school where I would like to teach! I teach in a rural school in the middle of Nebraska and its not uncommon for gun talk during the winter months of hunting season. Heck, I have had numerous parents invite me to use their land for deer and goose season!
My parents almost sued my school since that girl had created problems for me before regarding rumors. And only one mentor on the team stood up for me. And as for the girl who spread that rumor, she now resembles Miley Cyrus from "Wrecking Ball." FIRST Robotics was two years of living hell, and I graduated four years ago. There should be no tolerance on bullies.
I am now a gun owner, and I have shot real machine guns at a range I go to. But owning guns, shooting them, or being a supporter of the Second Amendment does not make me a criminal or a terrorist.
your parents should have sued the school since it would have forced the school to due something about the bully.
Im very lucky to live in the middle of a national forest.I have my own range just out my back door as well. I can shoot 24-7 without a problem.Life is good.
Lucky, what state?

My brother and I have been competitive shooters and hunters in New York since the age of 12. When I was 16 and he was 15 he received a .17hmr rifle for his birthday. He wanted desperately to try it out but we didn't have anyone to go to the range with and we didn't have the land to shoot it on. Well, while I was playing some video games, he took his new rifle and shot it from the bathroom window that faced our back yard into a pile of dirt that we had from when our swimming pool was being put in. We have a fenced in back yard with nothing but woods for miles behind us. However, we were only 20 yards from the nearest houses on our sides and the law was that we had to be 500ft from the nearest inhabited structure. Our neighbor called the police. I noticed the police car in the driveway, heard the knock, and went to open the door. As soon as I opened the door, two female officers barged into my home with guns drawn shouting "back up, where's the gun!?!?" They had received a call of "shots fired." (it was a single shot, not much louder than a .22)
They rounded up my brother and I, I explained what had happened and that my brother disregarded my advice to him. They asked us to bring all of our "weapons" (knives and bb guns included) to the living room under their supervision to have a check on any threats. a few minutes late, about 12 firearms, 3 bb guns, and a couple hunting knives were in the living room. They asked where our parents were. My mother was at work at the hospital and my dad (divorced) was either at his house or at work. They wanted to know how and why we had so many guns so I brought out our Youth Shooting awards and newspaper articles about our local gun club. They gave my brother a warning and left.
This is why there need to be. Minimum age...someone who just can’t wait disregards there neighbors and the low is pretty incompetent and just gives anti gun people a good and valid reason for CERTAIN things
M Masseh S that’s stupid there’s probably 10 year olds that now 10 times more about guns than you. People need to be just though how to handle weapons not have there 2 amendment taken away
@@mmassehs3251 what is having a minimum age going to do? there are kids out in city streets shooting at each other with real glocks, and the federal law clearly makes it illegal for them to possess handguns.
Being NY they wanted to steal your weapons and disarm you. Glad I left NY.
My cousins and I were shooting an airsoft ak47 in his backyard, he lives in the 'town' technically but is only a few blocks from the 'city' anyways, someone called the cops because I guess the orange tip and the electric popping sound didn't give it away (let alone us shooting each other). So this balloon of a police woman roles up with her shotgun out while we were just about to throw the stuff in the car and call it a day and says she almost would have shot us. We were like 14 at the time.
Toys guns get people shot all the time, unfortunately.
khatdubell Usually because people act like they are real guns and try to hold people up with em tho
I'm calling TS (troll shit)! While possible, and my brother did this, the likelihood of 14 year olds riding around in a car is slim. If cop did her job the kids' failure to produce ID/DLs would have made for a different story altogether. Just sayin'.
She shouldn't be an officer. Many officers shouldn't be officers. It should be required to undergo stress training to see if you're a coward or not before you're able to become a LEO. There should also be extensive mental health and psychological examinations. I left LE because of the mentalities it attracted. Too many power hungry authoritarians are wearing badges that are itching to kill someone and it is a shame.
Balloon !! LMAO
When I was 15 back in the early 2000's airsoft was getting more and more popular here in Texas and a few of my friends and I would go play in this large pasture by my house (there were no airsoft fields or any organized events near us back then). The second or third time we were out there playing we heard sirens coming from down the road and sure enough 3 squad cars showed up and out popped about 5 officers with guns drawn yelling at us to put down our firearms (which we did before they even got there). Of course we had our hands on our heads and were kneeling down when they showed up and when they realized the guns were fake just started laughing at us and made us repaint the muzzles orange lol. Turned out this 85 year old neighbor I had was watching us and thought we were going to slaughter a bunch of cows. Once I went over there and apologized for scaring her she never said anything about it again... unfortunately she passed shortly after. Most people understand logic if you're willing to have patience and take the time to explain the circumstances them.
lol
Good example of why you notify folks when you do that sort of thing in a non-designated space. Obviously you were 15 and probably didn't have the headspace for that, but just sayin'.
Same happened to me except no guns were drawn and we were in my back yard. Cop was pretty chill about it.
LEGITICUS If I ever own an airsoft gun, I'll paint it pink and put flowers on it ;D
I have a 5 guns video idea, 5 guns to buy when you turn 18.
Ruger 10/22 some modern semi auto handgun glock Sig xd Smith etc etc. A Remington 870 or mossberg500 an AR or AK and either a bolt gun or semi auto rifle in a battle proven cartridge like 308 or 30-06
@Adolf Shitler id take a handgun first over a milsurp. Which doesn't mean they arent awesome
@Adolf Shitler yeah I'm an idiot I overlooked that key aspect lol.
@@John5.56 Could you substitute the 10/22 for a Remington 597?
@@gt-rr3445 If that's what you prefer absolutely. Any reliable 22. I just prefer the 10/22 because of the bx25s and the countless aftermarket options for them.
I had a neighbor who liked to practice drums on his back deck. He would be good about the timing and not play too late or too early but you could still hear the noise inside the house. I prayed that he would hit it big and become a successful drummer making millions of dollars a year and traveling all around the world.
My neighbors threatened to call the cops on us on 4th of july for loud fireworks. *sigh*
Pervy geez, my area is like a war zone on the 4th!
Same
Get a cannon
That just happened to me.
he dropped a deer and a duece
lol
I hope he put some hand sanitizer on that 45 after conducting his "business". :-(
lol
Do you think he wiped before or after shooting the deer 😂
if my neighbor goes straight to the cops before talking to me about noise. automatically I'm not as open to making a situation where both are happy.
I live within city limits and cant shoot, but I do host underground all ages punk shows in my house. Ive just built a relationship with my neighbors and told em if they have an issue, I’d rather them call me than call the cops. I also do my best to follow noise ordinance and give them a heads up and an invite.
It probably also helps that I live in the hood and no one really wants the cops around.
Funny how he says "little wayne" lol
I'm a retired LEO and you were spot on! Good job and keep up the great videos!
Eric and Chad, I cannot tell you how many calls we get especially on the weekends of exactly what you described. People calling in crying horror saying "their rounds are hitting our house and nearly killed me while bringing in groceries!" And 99% of the time its guys like us legally and responsibly shooting
A guy broke into my house a year ago I shot him as he was trying to leave my front door I dropped him because I shot him in the kneecap call the cops I never had any legal issues but the cops congratulated me for protecting my family house in myself my mother father we're in the next room over I was on a sick day at school and I'm a freshman if I had the opportunity I would do it again to protect my family
I was shooting skeet with my dad and brother in law with saigas we were already loaded up and leaving when a cop running code pulls up to us. Said that someone called saying we were shooting over their house with automatics! 🤣🤣🤣
Simple. Make suppressors a non-NFA item and legal in all 50 states. Solved.
That won't be happening in California where I live. XD We can't even get new guns because of this micro stamping ridiculousness.
PThey don't work that well
NEEDS to happen. I'd buy a suppressor for every one of my guns. The price of them would probably go down, and more of them would sell!
Bullshit. The only use for one is to hide illegal activity.
Haaaa. Dumbass never responded, stupid fucking liberals talking out of their ass. Same thing with AK-style rifles, "ohhh, they're terrorist weapons, ban them!" Fucking illiterate morons.
They called the cops on my 12 year old for shooting his bb gun
*facepalm.
Same. I own a high power airgun and they called the cops.
same thing happened to me
They called the cops on my 6 year old for playing at the park alone lol ...
well, he could put an eye out!
Every time I see your videos I think of Barry and all the great videos and information y’all used to share with everyone on your channel. Barry will be in our hearts forever! 👍🏼
I go to the middle of nowhere close to Big Bend in Texas. Nobody around for 100 miles. Perfect.
How would you recommend dealing with anti-gun parents and family? I recently turned 18, and have been into guns for a good bit of my life, despite having never shot a gun because of my family. In the state of PA, I can now legally buy any guy, whether it's a pistol or a long gun which is great but my family has threatened to cut me off if I buy a gun or even go to the range! I have no idea how to deal with this.
Hmmm, maybe start off small and get bigger? Example, start with paint ball and move toward small calibers or a pellet gun. Once you're out of the house it will not matter.
Are there any people they respect who own? Can you work out a sort of buddy system with an older adult who they respect to train you?
+cogsys cogent well see I've had pellet guns my whole life, starting with a Christmas gift at age 6 lol. It's just my family doesn't believe in me needing a gun. They're not un-Americans who hate guns it's just that they don't see a point. And to your point of a respected family friend, there's no one I can think of. My family are fishermen, not hunters so there's no one close that owns a gun, which is sad :(
+Sean D show interest in sport shooting. ie trap shooting or handgun sport shooting. something as a sport so your family sees it as a skill.
If you want their approval, the thing is to show them you're responsible and safe with a firearm, but if you're 18 then honestly their approval doesn't matter and there's absolutely no reason for them to ever know you have a firearm if you're really that worried about their reaction. It's called concealed carry for a reason.
Build an AR pistol in the basement and put it under the tree on Christmas morning.

You all need to come out to Arizona and try some of the areas we have for practicing WHATEVER you want to practice with. We have some really remote areas that can handle what ever you wish to bring.
When I go to school it is always funny to listen to the conversation that an anti gun kid tries to make with me like you don't need a gun cuz there are police so I finally got fed up with him and told him that by that logic he doesn't need a fire extinguisher or a first aid kit because we have fire fighters and paramedics
Had a buddy shoot a deer from a second story window with a bow. lol
A house makes a good hide, lol.
My dad came home from an unsuccessful hunt. He saw a deer in our yard. So he got his bow out and shot and gutted it on the spot.
There's a weird mentality where nuisance becomes defined as anything unusual. For example, *just once* while staying at my folk's place recently, I heard two or three gun shots at least a half mile off in the woods. Each, just a very muted 'pop-crash', but it led to immediate grumbling that its "just not the place for that with all these houses" and that "people just have to make noise." I was flabbergasted. This, in a house feet from a state road with trucks speeding by periodically at all hours. Their lawn tractor and tiller are just fine of course, as is the sawmill down the road. But Billy Bob and his 30-06 need to be in the next county.
this gun gripe kind of leads into another one of the videos that I was watching from you guys this morning about the hearing protection act.
I'm late to the party here but story time. When me and my neighbor were about 12 and 13 we got into a big land dispute with a distant neighbor about land that wasn't even his. Me and my neighbor live on a main road just outside city limits, and behind his house is about 6 acres of forest, alot of it being bamboo, and his family owns about 150 yards into the forest with a clear and visible fence running through the property line. We had a great camp site set up out there and if you've been around bamboo you know it's a pain in the ass to keep maintained and you have to burn alot of it. And when it gets hot enough, the pressure inside will burst the bamboo and let out a firecracker sounding pop. Well this guy walked up to the privacy fence and told us we were trespassing.. we asked who he was because we were cool with the neighbor that owned the rest of the forest. He lived a block away in a neighborhood adjacent to the forest, owning none of the land, trespassed himself, leaned on the fence dividing the properties and told us we were trespassing and the popping was too loud. Long story short we politely told him to fuck off because there is no noise ordinance here. Behold about 15 minutes later 3 police cars show up, one has a riot sheild, and a female officer walks into the woods to ask what is going on. We told her what happened and she said they got a call for shots fired.. after a few minutes of talking, and the bamboo fire still popping behind us the whole thing was resolved and I'm not sure if he was jailed for filing a false police report, but a few weeks later we came out and popped a few .22 rounds down into the creek mud for shits and gigs. Never heard from the guy since
I want you guys to do as many Gun Gripes as you can.
I'd imagine after the first 5 calls the cops would start to know that its a legal shooting area and only come to say hello.
Or am I giving them to much credit?
But I wonder how many times after getting the call, and the cops just end up joining you for a while.
I've been watching your channel for quite some time and I've always enjoyed gun gripes
Who carries a .45 into the crapper
Same types of people who bring their sandwiches and burgers into the bathroom. Nothing like ingesting while exgesting...

Self defense situations always happen when you least expect.
STORY----Melbourne Florida-----i was working at my job as a tire technician at a local shop, the other day i told my co-workers (one is from NJ and the other is from Michigan) that i was going to the shooting range and i asked if they wanted to go....they both looked at me wide-eyed and said "nah man shooting guns is bad" "oh i dont like guns" etc....i asked them why and one asked "when did you start shooting guns" i told them i was around 12 when i shot my first gun....then the guy from new jersey said "since you have been around guns your whole life it is easier for you to kill someone" ?!?!?! i said umm well no thats ridiculous just because i was raised around guns does not make me want to kill anyone....in fact, it would make me safer because, i know the safety procedures and proper techniques....then i asked him...."WHAT IS THE MURDER RATE IN NEW JERSEY AND MICHIGAN!??!?!?!" they didnt say anything back HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHA
As someone from Michigan I can attest that Detroit, Flint and Saginaw do a great job of keeping the State's murder rates high. Though I will say that quite a few of us Michganders love firearms and feel naked whenever we have to leave our carry guns in the car.
Where is the range down there? I'm in Edgewater/Oak Hill and used to shoot off Cow Creek, but they closed it down last month cause they're cutting that bike trail through...used to be one at the Mondex but now there's a private property sign up...got a friend in Samsula with land, but we can only make it out there once in a while...Melbourne isn't too far, would love to find another range!
True that frost bite! yeah it was more the NJ guy haha..... there is an outdoor range in sebastian or indian river! there is an indoor range for pistols and rifles called frogbones off of US-1 in melbourne, also i think action gun has a range, and then up in merrit island there is the gun site range....there are more around here though im sure....have you been to the compound?!
Awesome! Thanks! No, I haven't been to the compound; the only real range we have here in volusia anymore is Strickland, and they keep adding more and more restrictive rules that it just isn't worth the $$ anymore...what is the compound?
yeah i hear you, orlando has great shooting ranges too!! the compound is a huge plot of land in palm bay, where a developer was going to make a huge housing complex but went bankrupt....now it is just like 20 miles of paved roads and dirts trails where everyone goes to race,drink,shoot, party....hahahahah
this video made me realize how lucky I am to have 280 acres of shooting/hunting land in the boonies not 2 miles from my house
In Minnesota it's only 500 feet!
Around 9:20 you were talking about burms and noise cancellation. I saw on hank strange's channel he has a big trench basically dug out with burms behind and to the side and it really does a great job of mitigating noise pollution and the potential for stray rounds
I always stick to my guns. I should probably clean them.
I want machine guns back.
As do I! If I ever ran for president, I would end the ban!
and supressors/silencers/moderators without paperwork
Unfortunately, that would destroy the value of such firearms. Machinegun investors would be crying their eyes out if that happened. I personally agree with you, but on the money end, it's dangerous. Possibly a way that MG's made & registered before 5-19-1986 and after a certain date are allowed, to somewhat preserve value
Ur Afail I imagine if you asked a full auto owner if they could legalized them again they would probably say yes despite it ruining the inflated value for preban weapons.
I mean - it's not like you can't get them anymore. It's just that if you do want them and keep them - you gotta pick up a lifetime occupation in firearm dealership. To own modern machine guns (& a couple of other NFA weapons) you have to be a FFL Dealer and get a Class 3 SOT License. Then, you can own any machine gun made after may 1986, but won't be able to sell them to or lend them to just anyone. Also, there are a lot of things to learn about before getting that license and being a FFL dealer. I've read that you just can't get a Class 3 license just for the sole purpose of having the privilege of owning a modern machine gun. Doing so can get you in a lot of trouble (Something along the lines of Tax Evasion). In other words, you can own modern machine guns - but it's more of a occupation / paid privilege than a right to posses them (also it costs a lot of money, you have to pay a 500$ tax every so often). I would like for machine guns to not be so complicated to own these days, but you can pretty much expect that nothing is going to change about their availability because of all the recent political movements to restrict the guns we are still allowed to have even further. (Also because machine guns are indeed a far more dangerous weapon that what we are usually allowed to have - it's probably for the best that not every person can run off and buy one.)
Used to have a neighbor that called the cops every weekend because we would be welding on hot rod stuff and starting engines and such on a Saturday afternoon. The sheriff got so tired of it that one day he parked his car in front of the neighbors house and left the sirens and lights on while he came over to ask what we were working on and offer his own ideas.
Love your guys show , will be coming to Patreon soon !!
Since I'm originally from the UK, I've been around people that hate guns and are anti-gun my whole life. My whole life I've had people tell me I'm weird for being pro-gun lol. Now I'm married and live in the US and can go to the range whenever I like.. Feels good man.
The craziest thing is that I actually know more about firearms than some people in the US who have been shooting for 30-40+ years.. And it surprises them because I'd never shot or been around firearms lol.
Growing up in Kentucky, I had a neighbor who was a competition shooter. He shot almost every single, 10-20 shots and quit. Like clockwork. Never once did it ever seem out of the ordinary or become an issue with anyone on our entire road. We all shot
Every year I go to a Top Shot competition set up similarly to the t.v. show. It's very relaxed, in the country, and just a good environment with mostly amateur shooters. Called the cops ahead of time to make sure they knew they would be getting noise complaints. A police officer got a call and showed up to check things out. We told him he could come shoot too, and he was pissed that his shift had just started lol.
I grew up with a backyard backed up to a canyon, and would shoot .22 long rifle and very rarely when I got a wild hair 7.62x39, I live in Southern California, near Los Angeles and i guess its been about 10 years since then, so things have changed but i'd wager thats a pretty rare circumstance and Im thankful for it
Thank you guys for what you do.
Eric also please do a gun gripe on anti gun family/parents
I second this. My mother has some irrational fear of guns.
oh please do this!!!
Same here, maybe its a common thing lol
same. I couldn't keep a gun in the house unless I was gonna shoot it the next day until i was 19. and it had to be the MAXIMUM UBER GRAMPAPY DEER RIFLE.
My mom grew up hunting. She was a better shot with a shotgun than her father, from the way she tells it, and one of her household chores as a kid was loading shells. My dad on the other hand is definitely anti-gun. I'm hoping when I own enough land in a couple years that I can have my own range, I can make him shoot some guns on it when they come for a visit, and maybe that will finally change his mind.
I carry daily, but am not allowed by policy to carry at work. I usually leave my gun in the car locked away and hidden. I forgot one night after leaving work to attach the gun back to my person. I left work and went to a gas station and was robbed. Although it was not a violent robbery I then realized how important it is to always be prepared and to not become complacent. Just to add I work in Macon georgia which is one of the highest crime rated cities in georgia! You guys are awesome!
Suppressors are illegal in my state :(. Very informative guys.
has anyone ever met someone that was anti-gun but owns a gun? lol
Obama. his secret service protection has tons of them and he is around them all day every day.
my buddy hates guns, but got a 22 Winchester look alike from his step dad when he died. Since he can't sell it easily in Washington State, he kept it and it just collects dust in his closet.
Oh yeah lol. A guy I work with is all about banning Ar15s and 30 round mags yet carries a Charter Arms 38 in his truck and has several long guns. so yeah lol
I actually have. The guy legitimately believed that if guns were outlawed, criminals wouldn't have guns and he wouldn't need one to defend himself.
not the same. thats a very specific type of gun they want gone. anyway if they do ban ar-15s it's not like someone won't invent a kit to make your semi auto ruger look like one again.
One good solution if you're going to have a big shoot is to offer to send the family that complains out to dinner and a movie, your treat.
"Hey So-and-so, we're planning to have a shooting party on the 22nd. We know the noise bothers you so what we'd like to do is all chip in and buy your family a night out. Dinner and a movie, on us, and we'll be done before you get home."
It'd be hard for them to complain about that, and if they turn you down and call the cops anyway, the cops won't be very sympathetic to their complaint when you explain what you offered them to resolve the situation ahead of time.
Good to see y'all back in the shop.....
My buddy put up a 8ft by 8ft wall of GreatStuff Foam framed up with 1by's right next to his firing position on his range facing his neighbors house. It helped tremendously with his neighbors gripes. Just the act alone and his neighbor seeing him building it was enough to soften his heart and made all the difference. They live in reasonable harmony now.
IV8888, getting ready to move back to Georgia. What is this 500 yard thing?
Unlawful to discharge a firearm within 50 yards of a public roadway, or 500 yards of a residence other than your own. Both are loosely enforced as long as your backstop is good and you aren't being stupid.
+Iraqveteran8888 I had read 500 feet on line.
500 yards is a lot!!
My range will be long but not wide. My 34 acres is skinny. This sucks!
+Andrew Baker I can't find 500 yards anywhere in state law. It may be his county.
It varies by county I believe. The situation will always dictate. Wherever you are deciding to shoot, do yourself a favor and push up a berm as wide as you can afford, about 12-14 feet tall, and at least 14-20 feel deep at the base. Nobody is going to argue with a mound of dirt that big.
Good call
Man I shot a deer from my kitchen window. ..wife got mad I cut the screen. ..lol...good times...
Lmao
They're easily replaceable. . . just buy a small roll of screen and a screen tool at your local hardware store, pop out the spline, ensure the frame is square, place the screen over the frame, and roll the spline into there, one side, then the opposite side, then the adjacent side, then opposite again. Easy!
Roger that. ..its fixed. ..house is sold...keeping a eye out for a new shooter in the new neighborhood. ..lol...
I like the thought of the asking the neighbor to come over and shoot maybe a burger or two. I guess I haven't thought of that but thank you
Excellent advice for everyone guys, thanks a bunch.
Love your guys' channel! Just bought my first gun (Maverick 88) a couple of days ago. Looking forward to becoming proficient with it and obtaining my concealed carry permit.
Reminds me of when I went out to my uncles place. He had recently bought a cannon, and me and my cousins were shooting guns and unloading the cannon into this large hill on his property. Eventually a cop car pulls up. The old sherrif walk up, takes one look at the cannon, and to quote him verbatim, "When where you going to let me fire that son of a bitch?"
i live in rural indiana and our across-the-street neighbors have a graveyard of lawn mowers and old cars surrounding their property. every once in a while i see someone walk out the back door, magdump into the woods and walk back in. beautiful.
Great show. I have a tip related to this topic: Always move firearms in a case. If you don't have a case, keep it slung. If you don't have a sling, install one. Carrying a rifle at port arms or something similar results in "guy with a gun" calls.
If I had a anti-gun neighbor and he pisses me off I would put a sign on my yard saying "my neighbors house is gun free, I will not protect them with my guns if they are being robbed."
could you do a video on how to make the tire baffle system you talked about? would love to try it
I'll build one and test it, yes. Will make for a fun video.
+Iraqveteran8888 I think it would too, it's something the average Joe blow could do it at home which I think would interest a lot of people! Thanks for the reply and keep up the awesome work, you guys are the type of Americans the founding fathers pictured 240 years ago
+Iraqveteran8888 that would be great lol video but nice info.
Maybe try other things that might work better than tires? or maybe they are the best? It would be nice to have options.
@@lordjayguptill4800 A guy on RUclips who does alot of videos did a fairly scientific test and determined that shag carpeting absorbs almost twice as much sound as those expensive accoustic foam 'egg carton style' mats do. He hung some on the walls of his studio and it improved the sound quality dramatically. So shoot through a long cardboard box lined with carpeting. Or a roll of carpet with the shag facing in. Or a sheet of carpet over a row of tires...be creative.
We have long time neighbors that know but also a new neighbor that bought the small farm across from us. They haven't complained yet so I think they're old school like us. There are also neighbors over the hills that shoot that I haven't met yet. I love them.
Anyway, I'm thinking of making a tire suppressor thing just to be courteous. But not too quickly. ;)
I know of people who were in a similar situation. They would simply notify the cops before they would begin shooting, and the cops would then notify the neighbors that legal shooting is going on if they called.
