The worst advice I ever got was to buy an AR.
No, wait, the worst advice I ever got was to buy a Glock.

Worst advice I ever got about firearms is "Don't buy one."

Even though you have the Right, doesn't mean you should.

Worst advice: Fire a warning shot.

Unless cluznar was giving it, then it would be "Everyone needs a .32 and no one needs a big scary black rifle"

Don't open carry. Be a man and hide your gun so you don't scare anyone.

I was looking for ammo for my 357 Desert Eagle & the guy behind the counter repeatedly told me "it can shoot 38, you know that don't you".

And the winner is: Joe Biden, "shoot through your door"!

 

[telpinaro]

Everyone must buy a .22 as a "starter gun." Might be good advice for those who are very sensitive to recoil, but really...

 

[r1derbike]

Never fart in the same room where someone is reloading ammo.

 

[Cumberland]

Oh, It's not loaded!

That's true, I changed my mind about what I prefer, but I never, ever was against OC for anyone who made the choice before I did. It still leaves me incredulous that anybody calling themselves a "2nd Amendment supporter" ever expressing opposition to OC. Like you said, that is some of the dumbest advice I've ever heard too, and I thought it was dumb long before I started doing it myself.

Asking someone else what the best gun is, what the best caliber is, what the best holster is or what the best carry position is. It's different for every person. There is no universal "best" of any of those for every person.
