Claude goes rogue , the nukes get set off terminator style. The Boston dynamics army of robots goes after humanity you join the resistance which guns are you carrying??
wifi/bluetooth jammer, drone jammer, multimeter, soldering kit, and my entire toolbox
Nukes get set off? I’m just dead since I live in a major city.
If I somehow survive the wave of nukes? Meh, I don’t need a gun, I just wait for the power grid to go down. Batteries only last so long, and the power plants still need human intervention to keep operating.
If they have fully automated power plants? The guns still don’t matter as much as how well you can conceal yourself from the sniper drones.
A microwave oven emitter and a DIY wave guide.
Probably the only really effective thing, but you’re limited by battery charge and/or being able to plug in to power.
Edit: also the word is “magnetron”
Ah yes, the home particle accelerator everyone owns. Tweaked right, you can do some damage with it, up to about 10 feet away…

It’s even less practical but who wouldn’t want an emp laser?
A phased plasma rifle in the 40 watt range.
Hey, just what you see pal
The Uzi 9 mm.
i’m a stealth type going in with screwdrivers to sabotage
Kinda like the engineer class in the (good) Star Wars Battlefront 2 game? Don’t forget your dynamite, bomb up those robussys.
Christ I miss the old battlefront
Same. There were those remakes, but apparently they suck more like your vacuum(not mine, I need a new one).
lol yup
I’m assuming the AI has made its bots waterproof or I’d say water pistol. I’ve never even seen a (real) gun in real life from less than 50 metres away so I’d just hurt myself if I had to use one to fight. Hence: none.
I could create motivational posters for morale, maybe?
A .22LR and my semi auto 7.62/.308 bullpup.
A paintball gun would be bad news for cameras and lidar.

For fun, I’ve always said the “I, Robot” movie is the start of AI seeing what we’re capable of as far as bots and intelligence goes. It’s innocent and harmless and we humans are oblivious.
That eventually grows into what’s known as Skynet with the robots evolving into cybernetic organisms, and judgment day in Terminator series. We realize how idiotic we are and it’s too late, an uprising happens.
Finally, after decades of back and forth, Skynet wins, humans are defeated as we cannot reproduce as fast as the machines can, so they take full control. They find a way to keep us humans docile and content by sticking us in a dream world that is The Matrix.
Do they make EMP guns? 🤔
A high powered tesla coil might also come in a pinch.
Yes, they make something like an emp gun. But it’s big and hard to aim, looks kind of like a big high gain radio antenna and has a short range. It was built for taking out drones, it probably won’t be practical for at least 10 more years.
Im hiding in the mud with a Colt AR-15/SP1 assault rifle equipped with a mock M203 grenade launcher and fitted with an M16A1 flash suppressor
This sounds so written by AI or someone who had very little idea of actual firearms lol. Good humor read.
I just googled what gun arnie was using in the predator lol im from Australia, we dont have guns here
Oh gotcha OK. Much better 😅 sorry!! I’m in the US. The Colt is what made it obvious. While it’s an actual manufacturer, I don’t know anyone who owns a modern day one. They’re usually collector’s items from “back in the day” WWI or WWII, or even stuff from 70s and 80s since they were mainly military issued.
I’m a fan, not crazy into it like some, but probably more than most. My wife is also an instructor for women’s self defense, basic handgun, conceal carry, and other stuff, so it’s fun to watch her work and go to the local range and shoot.
I know it’s commonly said the are more guns in the US than people, but they’re often handed down over generations and heirlooms that aren’t used or functional. I’ve got a shotgun from my great great grandfather in ~1890 era. They grew up poor in a VERY rural area, and he hunted often to provide food. My other grandfather was in WWII so we have some of his stuff too. Neither functional, just keepsakes mostly. But I think that’s why numbers are estimated so high.
I think you don’t see much colt anymore because they were matched by other manufacturers in quality but they never dropped their prices. I had an acquaintance with a side hobby/job of putting together rifles for people who wanted to source their own parts and make ‘frankenstein’ ar rifle platforms. I can’t remember exactly now (it’s been over a decade), but a high quality gun would cost you a little over a grand, and colts would start at one-and-a-half grand. Cheap ones were as low as $300 or $400.
That’s just ridiculous for most people buying a gun. The choice is often dictated by pricing, and the name didn’t do enough to counter the price for the people who would care about names, and the quality wasn’t better than cheaper guns for the people who cared about quality. Colt just willed itself off into the sunset.
Colt willed themselves of into the sunset
Haha true story! Yeah I’ve built my AR from the ground up, and customized several “historic” models, but using alt brands. Some manufacturers from Turkiye like Tisas make a fine 1911, and Girsan make amazing Beretta 92 clones! Often many parts kits are interchangeable for certain designs which is what I love. Its like modding a car, but cheaper (usually) and while I could drop several hundred on ammo alone going to the range, it’s FAR cheaper than brakes and tires minimum after a day at the track!
