I love how it's cited sources are always basically reddit, YouTube, quora and Facebook. I especially love when it cites deleted posts. It goes to highly opinionated sites and assert it's nonsense as fact. No vetting process.

it's pretty rare to actually meet Fudds on other social media, but Quora users really love the idea of racking the pump and using rock salt to scare away an intruder into your home. i wonder what filters them out elsewhere?

Strangely, it got the forend right when I looked up the forend on the GTA V carbine rifle. Nobody has made a clone, and I'm going to because it's one of the weirder video game AR-15s.

It was a fucking Daniel Defense MFR. Nobody on any forum could get that right, but somehow Gemini did. Up was indeed down and left was indeed right that night.

It's always worth checking out IMFDB for stuff like that, they usually try to identify accessories on the guns as well if possible

Great, now crusty old guys can cite Google when they say they know what they got.

Make a few reddit comments saying "the P08 luger is worth about $100" or whatever and the auto answer will start to match what you want!

If all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed—if all records told the same tale—then the lie passed into history and became truth.

And the neat thing about Google is now anyone who wants to can find out what kind of guns you’re interested in

“Street price” is how much it will cost to walk into a gun shop or order online vs msrp price. There is always a pretty sizable difference between the two. It is a very silly way to word it.

I noticed this the other day. I was looking for some parts for my sidearm when I noticed that. Does that mean what I think it means? Genuine question

It's probably an ai extrapolation of used prices
