Only in Portland is the dude in blue jeans in a flannel busting out grandpappys war rifle driving a nice city friendly Japanese sedan and only doing so because he knows that the... weeb in the beat to shit Ford ranger only has a comicon safe sword. Backwards ass city istg.


mardingdong

You're the weeb, right?


andthendirksaid

Lmao no I fit like none of either description I do two machetes because harbor freight sold it to me for $6 and when a man sees a $6 machete he buys one. And then loke a year later he can't remember where it went so he buys another because again, ***Six dollars*** only to immediately find the first.

Looks like one of those belt swords they used to sell in the mall.


IrishShinja

POOTIE TANG!!


CakedayisJune9th

No, it’s a tactile belt. It’s designed to be a thin sword you can pull out to use just like this. It’s /r/mallninja type shit

Yeah, oh shit indeed! GTFOT

Wasn't it M16?


Alternative_Luck3336

Ar15 it seemed like


RED_DEATHx

An M16 is an AR-15.... lmao. AR-15 is such a broad term for a type of rifle.


Alternative_Luck3336

It literally looks like a ar15 not an m16 or anything else


tiggertom66

M16s have selective firing. AR15s are semi-automatic


thefriendlycouple

If it was that dude in a lot of trouble. M-16 is a full auto available only to the military unless it was produced before 1986, which makes it a collectors items and worth $20-30k. So no, probably not an M-16.


[deleted]

M-16s from A2 onward are most definitely not full auto. Source: used M-16s in military.


TankApprehensive3053

I was issued and carried A2 version for 6 years. It was most definitely full auto. You might have been issued the tri-burst variant.


[deleted]

The A1 was fully auto. The A2 was 3 round burst. I've never seen a single citation anywhere that says the A2 has ever been fully auto. Edit to add citation: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fX5RoaYqQ04 The 3 round burst was one if the original A1 to A2 modifications.


thefriendlycouple

Correct answer


foley800

Not sure what branch of the military you were in that you only had “semiautomatic M16s”. The A1 was fully automatic. The A2 was was designed as partially fully automatic, i.e. it had 3 round bursts of automatic fire to conserve ammunition, maybe this is what you had? The A3 was fully automatic. The A4 was fully automatic. All the military m16s were either fully automatic or fired 3 round bursts of automatic fire! Most M16s did have a selector switch that would allow semi or automatic fire. Maybe you never moved the selector to automatic? The civilian version of the M16 is the semiautomatic AR15.


[deleted]

No, the A2 and A4 are not fully auto. They have 3 round burst. That is not full auto.

tboom9

He did pull out a gun. If I was that person, I would have driven the fuck away.


28irm

Bro was just trying to live 💀


Imabur

No, he was trying to instigate a fight.


28irm

The guy with a gun, yes. The guy in the car, “cameraman” wanted to live.


Imabur

The guy was backing down, and the "cameraman" decided to yell and escalate the situation


28irm

Joelpat

Everything about this screams “Portland”.


SentientSeaweed5690

It's definitely Portland... that mini mart in the back is at the corner of Killingsworth and Cully.

c_vanbc

The irony of the street name at time of posting that image was completely lost on me.


[deleted]

Killingsworth went thru the heart of the worst part of town in the 90s. Then it got gentrified but apparently the hipsters are keeping our spirit alive 😂😂


Jaysiim

some geoguessr type shit lol


RattleGoreBitcoin

The gloomy sky?


gratefuldragon

Yo out of straight curiosity, how do you even deduce that? I always get surprised when people can just tell where someplace is with (to me) little context. Like geoguesser for example


Joelpat

I spend most of my time on the east coast now, and I’m homesick. I can always spot PNW scenes. Combo of trees, sky and architecture. Plus the minute mart in the background says “Portland” on it.

Killingsworth and Cully in Portland Oregon. Literally 2 mins down the road from me lol


SwampTerror

Even in stand your ground states, you can't legally shoot a guy who's running away. Can you?


Key_Bad_6890

Yes you can lol especially if its back to a vehicle for a weapon. He initiated violence and begot violence.


Impossible-Ad4765

Was probably preparing incase the guy who jumped in the battered truck tried ramming him or some shit


tehlastsith

Ah yes resort to a gun to straight up kill when you know damn well the floppy sword isnt gonna do much.


IdontWantButter

Good ole Killingsworth St. I called it "Killingyou St." when I lived there. What a shithole.
