minus-square@Bytemeister@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkΕλληνικά4•1 year agoUses for a firearm that don’t involve killing people. Hunting, defense from predators, fire starting, signaling, paper weight, preventing your checked bags from getting lost or tampered…
minus-square@Simon@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilink4•1 year agoNever had any of my hunter friends (and there’s a lot of them) hunt with a handgun. Is that even legal?
minus-square@DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafelinkfedilink1•1 year agohttps://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handgun_hunting TL;Dr yes, the enthusiasts say it takes more skill, which is true, so fair enough, though I’d argue it’s more likely to just make you miss a killshot and lead to unnecessary suffering. Just get closer with a rifle if that’s your thing.
minus-square@jve@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink4•1 year agoFair enough re: hunting. You really ran out of steam after defense from predators though.

Those were 6 uses off the top of my head. If you really want to stretch uses, you can use a gun as a hammer, you can use it to pinch your finger, and in dire situations it can be a dowry.
