Shooting Ourselves in the Genitals

[Laufen]

It seems like just about every gun owner and manufacturer are pushing hard to get cans off of the NFA. We're combating Hollywood stereotypes of suppressors and suppressor owners, and then we have manufacturers produce crap like this. A t-shirt that's an anti-gun rights billboard to the public, telling people "be afraid of me and my silencer". Fuck you Gemtech, fuck you.


We just can't get out of our own damned way.

I guess people just prioritize feeling like a badass above gun rights and their expansion/preservation.

I don't think 90% of the public will know what Gemtech is...but I get your point

Lighten up, Francis.

 

[Laufen]

Lighten up, Francis.

Nein!
This is the type of shit that really pisses me off, as if we didn't have a big enough hill to climb already.
Honestly, I'm not buying anything else from Gemtech.

their 22 subs will get my money every time regardless of how fucking stupid that is

 

[Abishai]

I can see that this type of advertising plays to a certain stereotype or perception of non gun folks

I would pay money to see you shoot yourself in the genitals @Laufen

 

[Cudruln]

I feel it would be safe to bet the 90% of the sheeple would walk right past and not even notice it. But I do understand where you are coming from.

How much? Hey now...............is this just a clever way to get to see my genitals? I'll tell ya right now, they're not that impressive.

 

[Red Dawn]

Nevermind the elbow go straight for the balls shot.

I don't think that they would sell many tee shirts and cans, if the image was unicorn farts & rainbows coming out of the suppressor.

Unicorn farts are rainbows. Laufen would buy one.

So you're saying that there is no ground between unicorns, and chest thumping, Second Amendment damaging advertising?

There's a difference between simple ineffective advertising, and advertising that undermines gun rights.

When we step into the public we're ambassadors of the Second Amendment, it's custodians and caretakers. I take that responsibility very seriously. I hope the rest of y'all do too.

Hell yeah I would. I don't need a tshirt to advertise the size of my dick...my tiny shoes do a great job.

 

[Red Dawn]

I thought this was a bad appendix carry event. I see what your saying though.

Gemtech makes sickles? Right?


I agree with where you're coming from here- but I'd guess that shirt design came from a bunch of guys that work at a suppressor manufacturer and have watched a lot of sons of anarchy.
