What weapon does /k/ carry if guns magically vanished?

Id choose a wakizashi sword.

Magically vanished as in all history of the technology somehow erased completely, or reduced to prevent industrial levels?

Well shit, I suppose some bladed implement of equivalent size.

a knoife m8

a small nuclear device

Probably a rifle.
>>
>>29520639
Bad idea, no handguard, short range. Will get your hands and fingers cut off against the first opponent with a blade longer than yours.

I'd carry a British cavalry saber or a rapier as a backup, paired with a buckler. Bow as primary. Possibly crossbow.

I would take my recurvebow, my outdoor esee3 knive, my 5.11 tactical rush 12 with /k/ patch. I would survive by an apocalypse just because /k/ patch is to powerful.

I'd just make a new gun

A longsword not made out of iron and massively impure steel would be way better.
Or an actual useful weapon for not larping.
Fuckin weebs.

I've been told that the Wilton BASH hammer is actually pretty badass. Carry that and for range make some nice pipe-bombs. If I needed safe accurate range finding a decent crossbow shouldn't be impossible.

Man, just think about it. In a world without guns, and presumably without order, you'd probably come across as one scary mother fucker if you killed enough people with that shovel.

Tales, would be told of a blood-soaked psychopath, who beats his enemies to death with a shovel, while screaming of the days when the world made more sense, and how lovely life used to be.

Honestly, a shovel can be a terrifying weapon in the hands of someone who knows how to use it.
>>
>>29520639

Put an Aim point on my hand. Hey, gotta be accurate if all my weapons just happen to get taken away.

Has the knowledge to make firearms disappeared? Or did guns just vanish? If the latter, wait for the gun companies to make more, or make your own from scratch. If former, then a taser.

This scenario is essentially the gun grabber's dream, except now people are getting hacked with machetes vs just getting shot.

>>29520687
A rapier with a buckler?
Why not rapier/knife, bucklers are for messer.

I would also go for a longsword in this case, just because I know how to use that better than rapier/knife, otherwise I'd use that.
>>
>>29520639
>What weapon does /k/ carry if guns magically vanished?

A small concealable knife.
>>
>>29520786
It was also the weapon of choice in All Quiet On The Western Front, and also Stormtroopers of WWI.

They're handy, and infinitely useful.
>>
Gyrojet. They didn't outlaw missiles so it's technically a missile launching device.
>>
>>29520639
Spear, long sword, dagger, and a crossbow.
>>
>>29520904
I'd rather parry blunt force like, baseball bats and batons with a buckler than a parrying dagger and I'd think that going up against another thrust oriented sword would be uncommon so a buckler would be more practical. They also make pretty good striking implements against unarmoured faces that get too close.
If I knew I'd be facing melee opponents though, I'd consider carrying a spear or a partizan, since that would put me at a massive range advantage. If I suspected that they'd have armour, I'd probably choose a pollaxe instead.
>>
>>29520730
i'd use a modern one because it has the serrations and a better handle, but an entrenching tool would be a great melee weapon.
could you imagine, someone trying to steal your wallet and then caving their skull in with a desert storm shovel ent tool?
>>
Tomahawk and fighting knife combo

Ranged:
Cross bow or compound bow
>>
>>29520639
Crowbar or Knife until I got my hands on a gun again

You never said we couldn't build them again btw
>>
>>29521012
Good choices, spear will have to be carried in your hands and subsequently dropped if you want transition to sword though. I would also recommend a sword with more adequate hand protection if you're not wearing steel gauntlets.
>>
eggs
>>
Large rectangular shield and a falcata
>>
>>29520639
A crossbow and a halberd.

We swiss mercs now.
>>
>>29520639
I'd go to a machine shop and have them make me a gun. Just the guns vanished, not my knowledge of them.

A half-brick in a sock. Sir Terry told me that it could kill even the most powerful of wizards, and boy, whatever wizard did this has got it coming.

Pic related, also probably try to get a bow and git gud with it.
>>
Probably a bow, tomahawk and knife. Plus a crowbar for utility purposes.
>>
>>29520639

none other than a crossbow and whatever poisons I might be able to concoct with various delivery methods

If guns *magically* vanish? I'd carry me some motherfucking *magic*.
>>
A laser.
Have fun going blind, fucknugget.
>>
crossbow and tomahawk for fighting and a knife for knife stuff

also since the ATF states black powder is not a firearm/gun Id run a Kentucky long riffle and a cap and ball revolver of some kind not sure which Id go for at this point
>>
>>29520639
32" mace and 56" halberd.

Halligan bar. Why? Because fuck your door, fuck your window, fuck your car, fuck everything. Fuck you. I'm inside now. Get fucked.

>>29520639
My modern compound bow. It shoots a carbon shaft arrow with a gnarly 125gr broadhead at over 300fps and I'm accurate with it to 50 yards on deer. Probably 100 at least if all I needed to do was hit a man and didn't care about how they died.
