Method Guns/firearms megathread

It seems like many recommend the 357 magnum. Is it really that foolproof and intraoral?
I also tried the 12 gauge on the soft palate but it makes you gag.

What is the actual position to put a gun in your mouth? I'm seeing many different answers ranging from 15-45 degree angles and now I'm not entirely sure which angle is accurate.

Getting a 357 magnum revolver. I want to get the best bullets for the job. Hollow points, sure. But what do you recommend for ammunition to get it done?

I'm pretty sure this thread is dead, guys.

Buffalo Bore Heavy .357 Magnum Bullets (180 gr Hard Cast) you must have at least a 6 inch or 8 inch barrel. Otherwise you risk losing 200-300 fps from the effective 1,400-1,500 fps you can get.

It's not dead, just that apparently my advice is "condescending", and as it happens, more often than not I'm the only person on here answering people's questions.

Angle doesn't mean dick tongzhi, aim for this.

With a gun like that, ammunition doesn't matter. Just get whatever.

Because the people here are fearmongerers.

If you aim it right.

I also tried the 12 gauge on the soft palate but it makes you gag.

Did you press it directly onto the soft palate?

I mean, if you want to be neurotic about it. At point blank, with a .357 Magnum, aimed directly at the brainstem? Unless one is using ratshot it's gonna take them out.

I've never used a gun before but it seems like a shotgun is the way to go. Does anyone who understands guns know if sawing the barrel shorter would be a good idea? I'm worried about the reach to the trigger and keeping a good aim.

Practically? Probably.
Legally? That's illegal if you don't register it.

I got a question, is a air rifle reliable? Specifically .177 4,5mm (thats the caliber), its 8-10 joules, i was thinking of dieseling 2 pellets (shooting both at same time) into my temple, (dieseling method = petroleum/vaseline), what do you guys think?

Dear god please no. No, no, no, no, absolutely the fuck no.
A .22LR is more than 100 joules. That's a .22LR, the shit everyone here (for good reason) says you shouldn't use. A .22 will kill you, but it's the bare minimum, and the highest chance of failure along with the .25 ACP (I would consider them equals in terms of failure). An air rifle is stupidly underpowered, even when dieseled, and aiming for the temple is just not a good place to aim to begin with.
I've sometimes, in particularly bad moments, considered shooting myself in the neck with an air rifle, however even this would not be the best idea, a crossbow or even a knife would be better for such a thing, not that they would be good ideas either.
As far as I'm concerned, any weapon that doesn't use gunpowder should be completely disregarded for this purpose.
