Well, it's Mental Outlaw. He's a contender for one of the most paranoid tech YouTubers out there.

[-] [email protected] 122 points 1 year ago

But its great that people like this exist imo. The average person might not need it but if someone does actually have a real reason for this level of security then its nice to have sources or at least entrypoints into the topic.

[-] [email protected] 51 points 1 year ago

Yeah I like his videos though

[-] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago

"Check out my gun! By the way I use Arch."

[-] [email protected] 32 points 1 year ago

Wait, is that a real gun? That looked like a toy to my non-American eyes

[-] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

That’s just a sand colored SIG, very real gun.

Edit: Accidentally thought it was a Glock at first, my bad.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

That is a SIG idk the exact model

If you were an American cop, you would've unloaded over a 100 rounds on this guy's back.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

unloaded over 100 rounds on this guy's back if he's not white

FTFY

And that's why they ban guns.

This reminds me of that copy pasta about having an old printer and a gun in case it does something unexpected; can't remember the exact words though.

sorry for low resolution image

Oh I remember that guy, I watched like 2 videos and then removed them from my watch history hoping that YouTube wouldn’t recommend him again lol

[-] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago

If you have a YouTube watch history you are doing it wrong from a privacy and freedom perspective.

I wish he didn't ramble as much as he does. Most of his videos could be a quarter of the length.

[-] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

He's kind of like that crazy prepper/survivalist uncle who lives in the ass end of nowhere, has a homemade fallout shelter stocked to the ceiling with canned chicken and peach, sleeps with a combat knife under his pillow, and rants about the government and agencies whenever he gets the chance. The family still keeps him around because he sometimes does something useful.

Luke Smith, on the other hand, is already out in the desert building a shrine to Old Man Atom.

There is no software solution that protects from a crowbar, you have to go to the hardware side.

Protecting your self is important not to mention shooting guns is fun.

[-] [email protected] 44 points 1 year ago

Shooting guns is meh. I still prefer shooting just airsoft guns

[-] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

I like both, airsoft does happen to be a whole lot cheaper though

[-] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago

And I don't need ear protection

Coward is the word you're looking for, not paranoid

Gun owners/cowards. Same thing. Look it up in the thesaurus

[-] [email protected] 34 points 1 year ago

There's a very large overlap, but I can't blame any minorities wanting to arm themselves in the current political climate. Arm queer people!

[-] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago

Lmao this dosn't make any sense

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Lmao if someone comes at me with a gun I'm just gonna square up with them? It's not cowardly to want to arm yourself in case your life at risk.

Hell yeah he’s the least. What is that, a 7 round mag? What a joke.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

Sig p320, looks to be the M17/M18 version with a manual safety, not the extended 21rnd mag though, probably the 17rnd mag; unless CA, NJ, CT, IL, NY, MA, WA, (fuck I know I'm missing one or two), who restrict their citizens to 10rnds arbitrarily. That's a double stack 9mm magazine, def more than 7rnds.

In theory it could be a .40sw, but afaik they don't make them in that caliber and you'd need at least to rebarrel it if not need a new slide too, and new mags and such ofc. That isn't impossible, because they do make those parts for the regular p320, but afaik they only make the 9mm version of the slide with the manual safety, more likely that it is stock.

You're right though, the more rnds the better, but also concealability is a factor. Tbh, we don't know if he has an AR with 100 surefire 60s stacked up right off camera, either, but we know that wouldn't fit in his pants lol.
