      You beat me to it. I saw a post probably almost 20 years ago by a kid on Facebook talking about how he got banned from a Young Republicans Facebook group for giving this answer. His reasoning was: it’s a carpenter’s tool, not a weapon, and used to help people and improve the community. Kid actually read the Bible and got hate for it.

        You can’t actually read the bible and be an honest republican. Poor kid, he needs to get better at predicting what his superiors want him to say if he wants to get anywhere in the republican party.

    Jesus would either rock a Styer AUG or a FN P90 because they are objectively the coolest guns

    Self proclaimed fans of Jesus portraying him as a fan of one of the least faithful 1911s is quite on brand.

    I think Jesus would carry a Hi-Point C-9, because it’d be all he could afford in this economy.

    A Sig? Jesus would need to pray to himself that the gun doesn’t go off and shoot his holy dick off.

          For any gun, specifically, mechanisms to ensure that the gun only fires if i intend it to. A 1911 has a manual thumb safety and a grip safety and is incredibly drop safe to boot. A p320 has been demonstrated repeatedly to not be drop safe.

            Nah it’s totally safe and will never go off without a trigger pull. Also because sig is such a good company, they’re doing free voluntary trigger assembly upgrades for the p320. Totally unrelated to anything else allegedly happening.

            It’s incredible what a fucking joke sig has become.

    Dawg, Jesus’s weapon of choice is literally in the Bible, Matthew 10:34:

    I have not come to bring (a) peace(maker) but a sword

    Dude’s immortal, he’s not afraid to get up close and personal with it

        Well then you’re absorbing the recoil wrong. Use your shoulders and forearms to resist the recoil, not your wrists. Also don’t dual wield pistols. That is for minor deities. You literally can’t watch the sights of two pistols at the same time.

        That goes for smaller caliber pistols as well. Just because you are shooting a .22 or a 10mm pistol doesn’t mean you shouldn’t lock your wrists. DON’T lock your elbows and shoulders.

    Jesus would obviously use an an AK47

    Edit. Just talked to Jesus, he uses a 12gauge shotgun loaded with buckshot. Says he likes to take care of things up close and in person

    In Luke, Jesus tells his followers to sell off some of their clothes to buy weapons so this is not totally out of the realm of possibility

    That’s what I always assumed. What else would Jesus use to murder immigrants and U.S. citizens?
