Not really… You can get a cheap pistol or a shotgun for $200-$300, solid reliable handguns start at ~$450 and you can get a military grade rifle for $800
It’s not nothing, but it’s the same price range as most phones - if you want the fancy one with brand recognition you’ll pay twice as much, but you can get quality pretty cheap if you do your research
At least: I’m probably at 5x what the guns cost in training, ammo, gear, range fees, gas to and from the range (live in a city, so most local ranges don’t exactly let you shoot 5.56) and so on.
Not the cheapest hobby if you’re planning on actually serious about being able to use your guns if something makes that necessary.
You can’t 3d print entire (functional) guns, and the materials that you need to print the parts that you can are expensive as hell. You’ll end up spending more.
Where do people get the money to stock up on guns? They are friggin expensive.

You can get a shotgun for less then $100.
My favorite for fucking around in the woods cost $125. I have several shotguns around that price range.
You probably should plan to spend more then twice what the gun is worth. Ammo to train, ammo to have, extra mag or two.

Hi Point to the rescue
The people’s gun!
What are you not American? They do not give you a rifle and a crate of ammo for your 18th birthday?
Idk when i turned 18 i filed for my social security gun and they gave me an M4 with my Social Security # engraved on it.
Sounds like he lost his lol
There are a plethora of affordable options that are cheaper than a console or a nintendo switch nowadays.
Hi-points aren’t fancy, but they’re reliable and cheap, you can pick up a 9mm pistol for around $200 or less.
Farther up you’ve got PSA, where you could pick up a Dagger (glock clone) for $300 and an AR-15 for $399.
Again where are people getting that sort of money?
It is usually called job.
My question was rhetorical. The point is that many people have very poor financial decision making skills.
I saw a highpoint for $99 in a magazine around Xmas. They get stupid cheap if you wait
3d printers are cheap.
