Last Minute Fathers Day Gifts For The Gun Nut In Your Life

It’s been a crazy 2020 so far, and we’re only halfway through it. Yes, Father’s Day is already upon us this coming Sunday. In all the craziness, you may have put off getting a gift for dear old Dad. If being a gun nut/Second Amendment Radical is genetic in your family, why not treat your old man to some gifts of the ballistic persuasion? Read on below for my recommendations…

Note: buying a firearm itselfas a gift for someone else is legal in most states, it’s best to check the specifics. The 4473 is vague enough that even the ATF recommends just getting someone a gift card for the value of the gun. Sucks, but those are the breaks.

Aaaanyway, now here are my recommendations. I either own or have personal experience with all these products, by the way. And yes, if you use my links, I get a few pennies from each purchase.

Last Minute Father’s Day Gift Ideas For Dads Who Are Gun Nuts

Second Amendment-Themed Shirts

I think I’m entitled to a little self-promotion here, right? In case you didn’t know, I’ve got a burgeoning line of Regular Guy Guns merchandise for the discerning Second Amendment Radical. Your dad is probably the sort who looks down on the AR-15 as a poodle-shooter, and sings the praises of everyone’s favorite battle rifle cartridge, the 7.62x51mm NATO. So, why not get him situated with something fashionable representing that point of view? This shirt features the schematics of the round, along with the caliber spelled out - it’s a conversation piece. Available in a wide variety of cuts, sizes, colors, and styles.

Ammo

A gun is just a fancy paperweight and a rather poor nightstick if you don’t have the ammunition to feed it. Your dad probably thinks the 9mm caliber is for girls and wannabe Eurotrash, so why not play along and get him squared away with some quality hollow points from Lucky Gunner?

Lee Precision Reloading Kit

Those of us in the younger generations are used to just going online, slapping down the AMEX, and ordering thousands of rounds of ammo in one go. Convenience is king. However, for generations prior to us, often one of the best ways to obtain large quantities of ammo was to handload and reload your own ammo. If Dad is an avid shooter, he’ll certainly enjoy the science and engagement of making his own custom loads of ammunition. And a good place to start is with a kit from Lee Precision via my great friends at Brownells. This is really an affordable first step into graduate-level ammo nerdery.

Get Dad out of the house and really build up that inter-generational relationship with some binary explosives from the great folk at Tannerite!
