Anyway, please stay safe and don’t be afraid to defend yourself.

    There are some, handheld firearms that are used as a last-ditch / cheap anti drone solution in Ukraine, by both sides.

    Drum roll…

    https://www.armyrecognition.com/news/army-news/2024/analysis-shotguns-emerge-as-a-frontline-defense-against-drones-in-evolving-military-and-security-tactics

    Its shotguns.

    Because they have a spread of multiple shot pellets instead of a single bullet.

    Fucking obviously duh, they’ve been used to hunt small, evasive birds routinely, everywhere, for like 150+ years.

    Hunting a nimble flying object with a sniper rifle is a laughably absurd idea.

    This actual post from this woman is so stupid I would have thought it was from a 12 year old whose only experience with guns is from CoD… but nope, its a 50ish(?) year old woman.

    Guess she’s never hunted birds, and thinks its just the same as hunting deer or hogs or something???
