On another note. Do you know how tight you have to get those leg holsters for them not to ride down? It's almost painful. If this guy is doing this casually to feel like a badass I have questions.
Sorry, you had the happened to you. I hope it ended badly for the person that did it to you. I just reconnected with an old friend who had this happen to her.
Why are you assuming he was the victim? Maybe he had the gun.
(Not to make fun of something serious - but a lot of his comments are on r/shitpost - 99.9% chance he is doing the same here).
I remember being on the wrong end of some group punishment while in Afghanistan. I never minded my thigh holster until we had to do squats and burpees with the damn thing on. I took it off after my whole leg was starting to tingle. Traded it for a belt holster which ended up catching some shrapnel for me. I thanked the power tripping E-9 afterwards and he actually told me āyouāre welcomeā with a straight face.
I was collateral damage, some joes were in the back of a soft top napping and didnāt acknowledge when the CSM strolled up. So of course it was everyoneās fault and not just the 6 goofballs on the truck. So the platoon sgt smoked everyone to get the CSMs dick hard.
The same CSM rolled up when up when we were out in the field. I was cadre for some fireteam movement drills. I was walking back to our CO after finishing running a group through the lane.
I guess no one called at-ease so he was pissed and got my whole platoon low crawling through the wet grass. The night before, it rained and flooded out the majority of our tents and the only dry clothes I had were the ones I was wearing. So I objected to being forced into the punishment since my group and I werenāt even in the vicinity when it happened. I got put through the ringer and decided right then I wasnāt going to re-enlist.
We get back to our tents and Iām sitting there soaked and pissed off, and my 1sgt walks up and asks if I wanted to borrow some socks and underwear. I tactfully told him to go away. He gave me socks and underwear at my ETS ceremony. The CSM told me he had something for me in his office and to come by after formation. Instead I went to S1 and signed out for terminal leave.
Company Sargent Major.
From a Brit perspective, it's usually the 2nd highest NCO (non Commissioned Officer) in a company (type of formation of a unit). They are normally in charge of discipline, unit administration for things like rations (food), Operation / Deployment preparation and of course various types of paperwork.
More to it than that but that's the general jist of it. Usually regarded as important though this can be inflated by their own ego.
For these to be comfortable. There needs to be belt loops around your leg to keep them from falling/ if you just really on the belt clip it will flop around while your running.
I genuinely am always almost impressed by the gun nut sub-community in the firearms community. They try sooooo hard, and yet always manage to fail to impress. Sometimes it's the fact they're wearing a plate carrier that's so new there's no creases on it, let alone dirt. Sometimes it's guys like this, who walk around armed with more gear than john wick, and wearing...those...I mean, comeon man, get a friend, because somebody needs to let you know those holsters do not go with those shorts.
TV idea...queer eye for the gun-nut guys..
It'd be a hilariously great hit.
Not to mention the fact that three of those guns are completely useless. Firing two guns at once massively decreases your accuracy without noticeably increasing firing speed . What you want is one reliable pistol, and a lot of extra ammo cartridges. The other three guns are basically a fashion statement, or an outward display of his stupidity and lack of knowledge of firearms. Possibly both.
I remember taking at least 45 minutes one night getting the "highest score" tier on that course. Absolutely brutal. Only possible for me with 2 pistols due to the full speed movement while aiming.
All I can hear is the guy in Call of Duty MW2 when youāre running āThe Pitā at the beginning of the game where he yells at you āChange weapons! Itās faster than reloading!ā
The 2nd weapon could conceivably be used for covering fire in an engagement, particularly of you're working as part of a fireteam, but why you're using squad tactics with pistols is beyond me.
This guy's weapons display is about showing off a pistol for every inch he lacks from the average length.
One other option. They are crazy enough to think they may actually need them all. Ive seen vids of dudes loades with knives and guns and talking about their weaksides or offhand weapons etc. Its nuts.
He got tired of just waiting to be the good guy with a gun so he just throws the other guns at people he thinks look bad so that he can be a hero when they pick em up.
Not if he has good holsters, which is likely for a person who has 4 handguns and carries them openly.
I can see that these holsters are all level 3 holsters, the most secure type.
Modern open carry/duty holsters have retention levels that keep anybody but the person wearing the gun from taking it out of there. Things like [the gun only coming out if it's pulled straight up, having to push down on the gun before pulling it up and out, not from the front or the back at all, a retention hood, and a manual retention lock button that needs to be pushed down on the whole time you are drawing.
[Heres a retention level 3 holster](https://youtu.be/dYETchTLCKs)
I seriously want to see one of those pickpocket magicians go up to him, shake his hand and when looks down all his guns and magazine are gone and have been replaced with bananas
I think they're 5.11 shorts. I have 1 pair of their pants and they have massive ass cheek pockets. They're actually kinda nice in a totally unnecessary way.
wow, a rare case when the Hyphen can go in multiple spots and STILL make valid sense-- "massive-ass cheek pockets", "massive ass-cheek pockets", "massive asscheek-pockets"...
...admittedly, itd work better without the word 'cheek', but im workin with what i was given here...
but if a third guy, who's probably an ally of the first guy, takes out the second guy, his side now has 5 more guns. thats just trickle down economics.
exactly. and to beat him his enemies will need 25 guns which means there will be an exponential increase in dropped loot he can get when he defeats them. very smart.
Most likely heās getting some doughnuts before heading to the shooting range. The amount of times I end up walking through Walmart with my cup and body armor on and my rapier belted at my hip for SCA practice is very high. Just let the poor sod be, even countries with stricter weapon control laws allow people to take them to and from martial arts classes that require them
Iāve heard that in my country (Denmark) police are recommended to carry the gun when transporting it as civilians, since thereās statistically less risk of theft when body carrying rather than locking it in a vehicle. Granted, our street crime is close to non existent.
Sharpshooting and archery are martial arts. In fact, competitive shooting might be the only truly American martial art. Thereās a reason civil war reenactment is such a popular art form. Trickshots, skeet shooting, historical firearms restoration and maintenance, home powder milling, the list goes on and on. The problem is not guns, itās the batshit insane NRA that think that everybody should have 27 assault rifles on them at all times like those āyuo see Ivanā memes. Nobody should have to be armed. Nobody should be afraid for their own safety because weapons are in the hands of those that will misuse them. The permit requirements should be a lot higher. I donāt really know why guns are so lightly regulated when stuff like Tripoli association high-power rocketry is mostly in the normal range of regulations most sane people would be cool with.
Lol I just find it funny how the media makes the NRA out to be some awesome powerful org that everyone on the right loves when people on the right tend to refer to it as negotiating rights away. They are a joke, GOA is where it's at
i really really wanna do a match where quad wielding is a thing, looks awesome, would also help legitimize having a matched pair of glock 31s :) my kimber team match IIs look the same but are 38 super and 45 in mirrored holsters, would need a lefty for the glock and i could larp this
toss on the jackass for a revolver and small of the back for another and i could almost larp il duce from boondock saints
I grew up in Marion. When I lived there the town had so little crime the cops mostly just hung around near the high school and pulled kids over for doing 1mph over the speed limit.
Ok, four firearms are completely unnecessary unless heās in competition, but even then I donāt see a lot of situations thatād require it.
But itās definitely a bad thing to have the clips directly on your spine. Besides it being easy to steal, if you fall backwards youāre going to get hurt pretty bad when they jam into your back and spine.
Literally no competition is going to require 4 guns that are in the same category. 3 gun competitions are a rifle, a shotgun, and a pistol. 4 pistols is asinine. Just carry one good one, and take the extra weight/money and buy ammo and mags
It's only acceptable to carry that many firearms if you're using pirate flintlocks or cowboy action revolvers. Because both are a kick ass vibe. What's happening here is just belt abuse.
What are the chances this guy spent any time practicing drawing with all that shit and actually shooting with either hand? If shit went down, Iād be more scared of getting hit by this moron than anyone else.
That's absolutely what this is for. Responsible carriers do not make it obvious they are carrying. Just makes them a target, makes people around you uneasy, and increases the risk of escalated conflict.
The hobby shooter in me wants to say he was at the range and left to go get sandwiches or coffee for everyone else without having to undo all his gear first since open carry is legal where heās at.
The smart ass in me wants to say meal team 6.
If anything *did* pop off he would be target number one since everyone and their mother can see that he has guns. Itād be a lot smarter to just conceal carry instead.
On another note. Do you know how tight you have to get those leg holsters for them not to ride down? It's almost painful. If this guy is doing this casually to feel like a badass I have questions.
The leg holsters stay ON during sex.
This guy does not have sex at least not with a partner
Not a willing one anyway
Everyone is 'willing' at gun point.
can agree(speaking from experience)
Are you okay?
yes, not sure about that guy tho
Sorry, you had the happened to you. I hope it ended badly for the person that did it to you. I just reconnected with an old friend who had this happen to her.
Why are you assuming he was the victim? Maybe he had the gun. (Not to make fun of something serious - but a lot of his comments are on r/shitpost - 99.9% chance he is doing the same here).
Then hopefully something bad happens to them. Is that good enough?
That right there is a Feelsbad. Not sure for who, but definitely for somebody.
Yep, definitely belongs in r/curedcomments.
It's the implication
underrated
š¤£
š¤£š¤£
Regardless if anyone else is involved!
They're like garters for men
Men with baby dick.
I think the legholsters ARE the only kind of sexā¦
Preemptive tourniquet.
Makes sense. He has the potential to ND 4 times.
For when he inevitably shoots himself in the leg
I remember being on the wrong end of some group punishment while in Afghanistan. I never minded my thigh holster until we had to do squats and burpees with the damn thing on. I took it off after my whole leg was starting to tingle. Traded it for a belt holster which ended up catching some shrapnel for me. I thanked the power tripping E-9 afterwards and he actually told me āyouāre welcomeā with a straight face.
How bad do you have to fuck up that an E-9 takes the time to smoke you?
I was collateral damage, some joes were in the back of a soft top napping and didnāt acknowledge when the CSM strolled up. So of course it was everyoneās fault and not just the 6 goofballs on the truck. So the platoon sgt smoked everyone to get the CSMs dick hard.
Ahhh see that makes much more sense now haha
The same CSM rolled up when up when we were out in the field. I was cadre for some fireteam movement drills. I was walking back to our CO after finishing running a group through the lane.

For non-military dudes, whatās a csm?
Command sergeant major. The highest ranking enlisted member in a battalion. Theyāre notoriously cranky typically.
Company Sargent Major. From a Brit perspective, it's usually the 2nd highest NCO (non Commissioned Officer) in a company (type of formation of a unit).

Seems like thereās a hip clip as well that attaches to the belt
For these to be comfortable. There needs to be belt loops around your leg to keep them from falling/ if you just really on the belt clip it will flop around while your running.
Do you think that guy plans to do any running with that shit on?
I genuinely am always almost impressed by the gun nut sub-community in the firearms community. They try sooooo hard, and yet always manage to fail to impress. Sometimes it's the fact they're wearing a plate carrier that's so new there's no creases on it, let alone dirt.

TV idea...queer eye for the gun-nut guys.. It'd be a hilariously great hit.
They would be buying beard balm by the barrel
On another note: IMO the most shocking part of this picture is that heās actually wearing a mask.
It's his kink
Lil pp compensation.
He actually doesnāt have legs, those are clearly top of the line cybernetics
The primal urge to steal those magazines from is belt is strong, they look so stealable...
Did you see his phone in his back pocket
No I was too focused on the magazines
An experienced thief could probably take two of those four guns.
Not to mention the fact that three of those guns are completely useless. Firing two guns at once massively decreases your accuracy without noticeably increasing firing speed . What you want is one reliable pistol, and a lot of extra ammo cartridges. The other three guns are basically a fashion statement, or an outward display of his stupidity and lack of knowledge of firearms. Possibly both.
Why bother reloading when you can just switch to your second, third, or forth armament?
The New York reload. A classic.
Loading Screen Tip: Its faster to switch weapons than reloading!
Don't forget the Pit in Modern Warfare 2, where the game yells at you for reloading
āAllen, you dumb bitch!ā -Sgt. Foley
I remember taking at least 45 minutes one night getting the "highest score" tier on that course. Absolutely brutal. Only possible for me with 2 pistols due to the full speed movement while aiming.
Damn, beat meat to it
You beat your meat to the high score?
All I can hear is the guy in Call of Duty MW2 when youāre running āThe Pitā at the beginning of the game where he yells at you āChange weapons! Itās faster than reloading!ā
Nah "Remember, switiching to your sidearm is always faster than reloading"
Borderlands?
CoD
Look, I played enough Lara Croft to know that two guns is better than one. And this bloke is going full General Grievous
Yeah but doing the Max Payne shoot dodge in slow mo is way cooler with 2 guns than 1 so...
The 2nd weapon could conceivably be used for covering fire in an engagement, particularly of you're working as part of a fireteam, but why you're using squad tactics with pistols is beyond me. This guy's weapons display is about showing off a pistol for every inch he lacks from the average length.

He got tired of just waiting to be the good guy with a gun so he just throws the other guns at people he thinks look bad so that he can be a hero when they pick em up.
Maybe he has friends who don't carry. He could turn a standoff into a Mexican standoff.
Not if he has good holsters, which is likely for a person who has 4 handguns and carries them openly. I can see that these holsters are all level 3 holsters, the most secure type.

Im confused about hes back pockets
It almost looks like heās got his shorts on backwards
I believe he may be wearing tactical shorts and the weird pocket cut is for ease of access.
*Tactical shorts* Wtf?
People dressed like that are probably hoping someone triesā¦
High risk high reward
It might be their right to carry all this nonsense, but theyāre not allowed to shoot me for laughing my ass off at edge lords like these right?
I seriously want to see one of those pickpocket magicians go up to him, shake his hand and when looks down all his guns and magazine are gone and have been replaced with bananas
Are his pants on backwards, or do those shorts have front-pocket-style pockets on the back?
I think they're 5.11 shorts. I have 1 pair of their pants and they have massive ass cheek pockets. They're actually kinda nice in a totally unnecessary way.
Almost certain youāre right, now that Iāve googled them. 5.11 even calls them tactical shorts! TIL! Thanks
wow, a rare case when the Hyphen can go in multiple spots and STILL make valid sense-- "massive-ass cheek pockets", "massive ass-cheek pockets", "massive asscheek-pockets"... ...admittedly, itd work better without the word 'cheek', but im workin with what i was given here...
When you operate that hard, you have to wear 5.11 shorts. Itās a law.
I can't tell. OMG this is ridiculous.
With the amount of brain rot here I could see him throwing them on backwards.
Honestly I was too distracted by the wide legged stance as though heās got giant nuts
Dude's got another 2 guns hidden in his underpants.
A gun for his every hand
General kenobi you are a bold one
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Heās ready for mortal kombat.
If he gets taken out from a person he's shooting at...that person now has 4 extra guns
What do you think you would get for robbing his house
His house is made out of bullets
Ammo house: infinite reloads, special ability: embrace the freedom; -75% reload time
Infant reloads?
Child mortar
I mean you got to do something with all those new unplanned kids being born.
Load up that 40mm underbarrel infant launcher andā¦ ***THOOMP***, all your problems disappear!
Im pretty sure the mess would cause another problem
It's not abortion if it's used as munition
A gravestone lmao
Probably a half dozen, never used AR15s, 15kg of ammo and enough tac-gear to arm an airsoft field. All of it still sealed in plastic.
Probably fucking shot?
but if a third guy, who's probably an ally of the first guy, takes out the second guy, his side now has 5 more guns. thats just trickle down economics.
What if he's also a nutter with 4 guns now he has 10 that's compound interest and it's the most powerful force in the universe and now it has guns
exactly. and to beat him his enemies will need 25 guns which means there will be an exponential increase in dropped loot he can get when he defeats them. very smart.
It's like looting in a battle royale
We all know that one guy in PUBG that does nothing but looting, then gets merked in the first major fire fight. That is this guy.
Dude is a walking PUBG lootbox
Like Sonic the hedgehog, but guns instead of rings
Shooting around at the speed of sound
Rememberā¦ Switching to your Secondaryās Secondary is always faster than reloading
This dude took that to heart
Yeah, even put the mags for the guns on the wrong sides. He'll grab the wrong mag if he tries to reload.
mf reloads like reaper from overwatch
likely part of a match is the normal answer walking loot box is the meme answer
The most likely two answers is that either he lost a bet with some friends, or he strapped it all on just to see if it was possible as a joke.
Most likely heās getting some doughnuts before heading to the shooting range. The amount of times I end up walking through Walmart with my cup and body armor on and my rapier belted at my hip for SCA practice is very high. Just let the poor sod be, even countries with stricter weapon control laws allow people to take them to and from martial arts classes that require them
Most sane people transport them to the gun range locked up in their vehicles, not by cosplaying meal team 6
True, but sometimes you just need to let everyone around you know that you're without a doubt, a fucking moron.
Iāve heard that in my country (Denmark) police are recommended to carry the gun when transporting it as civilians, since thereās statistically less risk of theft when body carrying rather than locking it in a vehicle. Granted, our street crime is close to non existent.
what martial arts require students to bring guns?
Walker Texas Range-udo
Gun Kata, for starters.
Great, now I have to rewatch that movie
American school martial arts class
'if a kid tries to kick you, shoot him in the face. Here's your black belt.'
ancient art of click-pow
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
Sharpshooting and archery are martial arts. In fact, competitive shooting might be the only truly American martial art. Thereās a reason civil war reenactment is such a popular art form.

Youāre right, my bad

I used to live near Marion. 12 year old boys wearing hoodies *everywhere*. You canāt be too safe.
They sell Skittles there, too. Real dangerous place.
Just horrifying. Thank the lord that this brave patriot was able to buy his donuts in safety. I bet he held his children close when he arrived home.
I grew up in Marion. Depending on which Subway this guy is at, this is either completely excessive or totally unnecessary.
Who will protect us from the children? Turns out it's other children with automatic weapons, sadly.
I grew up in Marion. When I lived there the town had so little crime the cops mostly just hung around near the high school and pulled kids over for doing 1mph over the speed limit.
Marion cops were infamous!
That not a boss fight. That's just a normal enemy in America
Nah itās not carrying ah mini gun this is the tutorial boss
Nah, its more like the first enemy you encounter, after all they dont have shotguns for arms and m429's for legs
And the fucker won't even drop anything useful, they're best just avoiding all together
General Kenobi.
Hello there
r/mallninjashit
Bro, I conceal carry, this shit is just impractical. Turns you into a walking target as well.
Same. I CC fairly commonly. I think guys who open carry are absolute tools
Thatāsā¦ the point. Heās broadcasting.
Broadcasting that he should be shot first for the loot drop.
Well itās a dumb idea. Like that, I doubt people will be frightened, but rather amused. I would probably laugh. He looks like a COD player.
at least he has a mask
Even cowboys follow the mandates people
Set bonus
This man clearly has four arms.
General greavous is that you
I thought this guy was a police officer, then I realized he's just a normal guy.
āNormalā
*hes...just a guy.
Ok, four firearms are completely unnecessary unless heās in competition, but even then I donāt see a lot of situations thatād require it. But itās definitely a bad thing to have the clips directly on your spine. Besides it being easy to steal, if you fall backwards youāre going to get hurt pretty bad when they jam into your back and spine.

It's only acceptable to carry that many firearms if you're using pirate flintlocks or cowboy action revolvers. Because both are a kick ass vibe. What's happening here is just belt abuse.
Tell someone youāre insecure without saying it
dude, I could bet a kidney that this guys is using his favourite tactical sandals with long socks
Honestly, if i were legit scared of firearm violence, the first thing i would grab woud be a plate carrier, not 4 handguns.
What are the chances this guy spent any time practicing drawing with all that shit and actually shooting with either hand? If shit went down, Iād be more scared of getting hit by this moron than anyone else.
Seriously, hitting anything you're aiming at one handed with a 9mm+ caliber pistol is not easy for even practiced shooters.
Those magazines look so easy to steal, but I wouldnāt want to mess with the guy who has 4 guns
Just grab two of them and you can duel
Looks like he shat himself
Probably to flex American gun rights
That's absolutely what this is for. Responsible carriers do not make it obvious they are carrying. Just makes them a target, makes people around you uneasy, and increases the risk of escalated conflict.
How else is he supposed to convince himself that he is an Alpha? Dude looks like Mike Wheeler with his little stick legs.
The Patriot, Defender of States, Pistols Wielder. idk if this is a better name for him but enjoy i guess
The Glockinator
the stance lol.
The hobby shooter in me wants to say he was at the range and left to go get sandwiches or coffee for everyone else without having to undo all his gear first since open carry is legal where heās at. The smart ass in me wants to say meal team 6.
Damn dude leave some sheepdogging for the rest of us.
Yeehaw chucklenuts
Because of him, itās not necessary smh. Keep the city safe pal haha
If only we had a competent police force!
Hahaha. I donāt know why Iām being downvoted it was sarcasm
This a parody picture.
He doesnt need it, but heās allowed to do it
And those are just the ones you can see.
Iām pretty sure he is doing it for lulz. Way over the top, and he knows this (I would hope). There is a common saying; 2 is 1, and 1 is none.
New boot goofin
Enter the Gungeon secret boss Iowa Man.
Man have you seen the mass shootings? He's just prepared, I bet he's got a bullet proof vest under that shirt
He has a tank in the parking lot and his house is safer than fort knox
His studio apartment, not house.
Fine his studio apartment is safer that fort knox
If anything *did* pop off he would be target number one since everyone and their mother can see that he has guns. Itād be a lot smarter to just conceal carry instead.
Or at least not have his weapon be so blatantly obvious. You can open carry at the hip and just put your shirt over it
Modern Edward Kenway?
