i am a “pink pistol.” also, NRA member, supporter of our 2nd amendment, and, i am honest… so, to M4car members, “am i welcome here”?(be honest.![]()
Your welcome as far as I’m concerned, as long as I don’t have to go the range with you.
What is a “pink pistol” and would it be too much to ask for you to type some coherent sentences in proper English? This way you aren’t mistaken for a troll.
Everyone is welcome here.
We have a preference for clear, correct grammar and punctuation for concise communication though.

You’ve been here for a while. In my short time here the only thing I’ve seen that isn’t well received is stubborn stupidity that refuses to learn.

yeah… thats the honesty i was hoping for… i can understand that we may not visit any ranges together, because, i do wear my my pink pistol/tcp “open.” i’m a member of “mid carolina rifle club” here in SC, and, i do get some strange looks. i am in good standing at MCRC, and, some MCRC members who are also members here at M4carbine will know me as “donnie.” anyway, thanks for your reply.
I do not use grammer well… I will try harder. Promise, i’m no troll
By “pink pistol” I assume you mean of the Pink Pistol group? For those not aware:
You’ll find M4C like any other place, some accepting, some not. But unlike most other forums, the mods here will keep unnecessary flaming, rudeness, etc to a minimum generally.
But do yourself a favor and right in sentences “Pink” types and non can actually read.
You are correct.
If you don’t mind me asking…when you say you’re a “pink pistol”, does this mean your a member of the Pink Pistol Organization, or the gay gun rights organization?
Personally I have absolutely no problem welcoming members from the LGBT community into the world of firearms, or on M4C.net
Any firearm enthusiast that wouldn’t accept those people into the gun community is the definition of a bigot, and therefore their opinion doesn’t matter much anyways.
ETA…oops didn’t see Will’s reply, and then your reply above w/ the answer. So now that I know what we’re talking about here, welcome to M4C ![]()
Yes. LGBT.
Does it change the way you shoot the rifle? Does it change your POA? Does it change the POI?
If not, then why bring it up? Is it relevant to the topic here?
I’m trying to understand why it’s even mentioned…unless that’s a tree balanced on your shoulder…

It is relevant to me as, I promote open acceptance. I have found, its best to be up front. It avoids what I like to call, future shock.
Yep, I’m with you. Don’t care, and to tell you the truth, not worth mentioning unless it is somehow tangential to another topic, such as getting typically Liberal people—for example, members of the LGBT contingent—out shooting and understanding their right to bear arms. This is not one of those topics.
And Pink Pistol’s stance on standard capacity mags, the second amendment, ownership of SBRs, surpressors, AR15s, concealed carry, online purchase of said equipment, civilian firearms training, stand your ground laws, etc. is…what? Not being a smarta$$ but want to know.

We are on record in support/All of the above.
Well if the above is true then I welcome your input here bud. I honestly do not agree-personally-with the LGBT lifestyle (southern boy here :)) but this particular shooting community has that wonderful ability to transcend differences and your said support of the topics I mentioned says a lot. Would love to get into your views of the current political administration but will leave that for another time.
-Jax
“We”…? Are you here as yourself, or as an official representative of a group? Perhaps it’s the royal “We” ?
As stated before, a lot of us know how to read. Some of us even read “between” the lines. Educated bunch we are.
I would keep personal stuff as just that…personal. Public persona is different and non-confrontational, normally.
Sort of like “concealed carry”… LOL
Welcome anyway!

I disagree w/ you gentlemen on that matter…being a “southern boy” myself, and the fact I’m a proud hetero means that generally I’m never exposed to the LGBT lifestyle, and overall have very little understanding about it.
For instance, I never knew before today, that there was a whole community of LGBT folks that actually liked guns, and had an organization. I googled “pink pistol” after seeing this thread, and I would have never guessed that particular community to embrace guns, and more importantly the 2nd amendment. Just figured they were lock, step w/ the true liberal mentality…understandably considering the conservative mentality generally holds some form of disdain for their lifestyle, and sexuality.
So because m700m was open, and up front w/ this thread of his, I’m now a more educated person, and have a better “world” understanding than I did previously to reading it…regardless how small of a learning experience it might be.
That said, humans fully embrace the concept ignorance is bliss, and many choose to never try and learn or understand anything outside of their own unique ideologies.
Not saying anyone is wrong here, just pointing out the fact that I actually learned something new, and quite interesting because of OPs thread here.
Makes sense. If I were speaking with LGBT of M4carbine.net, I would speak of my membership here as, “we.” So. Only in that context.
