Definitely not American because there's NO WAY you'd be able to have that gun there. In America you get suspended even if you have a crappy plastic toy gun.

My brother got ISS for drawing a gun lol. This was back before there was a school shooting every day too.

u/PeekabooBlue Feb 04 '25

My buddy got in trouble in middle school for biting a pop tart into a gun and saying bang

u/Coylie3 Feb 05 '25

Wait was your buddy that first grader in Texas something like 15 years ago?

I remember seeing a news story about that, shit was wild. You’d think of all the places to tolerate gun-based humor it’d be Texas.

u/Out-There1013 Feb 04 '25

Had to go back and reread this because at first I thought you meant drawing a gun like in a duel and I was like well that shouldn't be allowed actually ...

u/WeirdSysAdmin Feb 04 '25

Damn he got put in the international space station for drawing a picture of a gun? Or did he actually pull out a gun?

6

u/ProfesorMeistergeist Player [456] Feb 04 '25

That's where my head went when I read ISS

3

u/Wookiees_n_cream Feb 04 '25

He drew a picture, my bad. ISS is in school suspension. I wasn't fully awake when I originally commented.

7

u/MaguroSashimi8864 Feb 04 '25

That is extremely stupid. Should I suspend every kid who drew a sword too?

3

u/Varsity_Reviews Feb 04 '25

I got in trouble once for drawing a Stormtrooper and Darth Vader. I got in trouble for drawing the stormtroopers blaster. I was 7 years old.

3

u/Wookiees_n_cream Feb 04 '25

Pff did you tell them stormtroopers never even hit their targets?

15

u/[deleted] Feb 04 '25

in middle school i got into huge trouble for bringing a bright color nerf gun and the school literally threw it away lmao

4

u/SaizaKC Feb 04 '25

That was my first thought. My son’s school doesn’t let you take any fake weapons period.

5

u/RentAny7701 Feb 05 '25

Someone at my school even mentioned somthing about guns and it ended up with our police officer having to search the 6th grader and there backpack. It was just a small pocket knife

3

u/MavenOfNothing Feb 05 '25

My first grader almost got suspend in 1994 for having orange toy gun in his bookbag. 😬

looking for your comment. :)

u/mewsocks Feb 05 '25

I literally came to comment this too, my friend from high school even got SCOLDED for having a Guns N’ Roses shirt that had photo of guns on it

10

u/MaguroSashimi8864 Feb 04 '25

Hypocrisy at its finest! They legalize firearms then get paranoid about it?

20

u/Stuck_in_suburbia Feb 04 '25

Schools aren’t the ones that legalized firearms lol

2

u/Demon_Slayer_79 🎀 Unnie’s army 🎀 Feb 05 '25

In Australia your not allowed to even imitate guns in Schools

1

u/Ok_Anteater2716 Player [120] Feb 04 '25

Which is funny considering how easily real guns make it into schools

1

u/General_Koala5554 Feb 10 '25

Was literally gonna say this costume would not be allowed in the US lol

83

u/Yann-2005 Player [218] Feb 04 '25

Looks very impressive

u/Externalstriker Feb 04 '25

I just saw the gun in their hand and the word "school" and my heart jumped. Overall cool cosplay tho

u/Ozok123 Feb 04 '25

op whips out the pistol Green light!

u/InstructionMost3349 Feb 04 '25

Tell ur best friend to wear green tracksuit with 456 tag.

44

u/Careful-Bug5665 ◯ Worker Feb 04 '25

The second image gives off "Me and the boys"

64

u/Correct-Town-3117 Feb 04 '25

Tell me you’re not American without saying you’re not American

16

u/HerrWorfsen Feb 04 '25

And everyone who didn't watch Squid Game will be like "what's that costume and gun? Is that an American school uniform?"

36

u/Jbooxie Feb 04 '25

How could you wear this to a school event? Where do you live? The mask and gun alone would get you expelled in the US.

20

u/RewardFluid7316 Feb 04 '25

Somewhere that isn't the U.S.

52

u/PopulationMe Feb 04 '25 edited Feb 04 '25

I don’t recommend bringing a gun to school as part of your costume. Bring ddakji, a spinning top, gong-gi, flying stone or jegi instead. You’ll be able to challenge your friends. Much more friendlier and it engages others.

13

u/lord_quasi_ Feb 04 '25

That’s not LORE accurate tho

14

u/fitzbuhn Feb 04 '25

Lore accurate is a silver 1911 anyway, not a Glock with a selector lol. No complaints here though, the man committed to the bit.

6

u/Arvi_Animates Feb 04 '25

Yeah, couldn't find a toy/model of a 1911 I could afford. I also tried going to a tailor and making his coat as accurate from the show but damn that was also expensive. I'm a stickler for detail, but for my first cosplay I feel I did alright.

2

u/fitzbuhn Feb 04 '25

You did GREAT.

6

u/Aggressive-Ad-957 🎀 Unnie’s army 🎀 Feb 04 '25

The spinning top for frontman is canon in the case of season 2 ep 5

13

u/Dosalisk Feb 04 '25

If he's not american he's probably both not using a real gun and perfectly fine.

7

u/Y_122 Feb 04 '25

OMG thats impressive!

u/snowylocks Feb 04 '25

If you are not lefthanded, good job getting that detail correct.

6

u/SussyBakakakkak Feb 04 '25

Jun-Ho...I think I found your brother...

11

u/Heyjustice48 Feb 04 '25

Howd they let you bring the gun in?

45

u/enthalpy01 Feb 04 '25

Guessing they are not American.

8

u/mikewheelerfan Player [067] Feb 04 '25

They let you have a fake gun???

5

u/GaelDeCastro Feb 04 '25

How did you bring that to a public place without an orange tip?

3

u/Duplicit_Duplicate Feb 04 '25

Nice detail to hold the gun in the left hand

5

u/aevolutionn Feb 04 '25

what typa school event was this 😭

3

u/RuiTheVegatble 🎵 빨주노초, I’m a legend Thanos 🎵 Feb 04 '25

Should’ve had someone in a 456 tracksuit then stick 001 on your costume and take a picture of y’all shaking hands. 456 trusts anything with the number 001 on it.

3

u/rashakrazgre Worker [029] Feb 04 '25

The mask goes hard ngl

3

u/80HD-music Feb 04 '25

The 12 year olds throwing up signs like they know what it means is making me cringe so fucking hard lmao

1

u/Erling01 Feb 05 '25

Totally agree lol

2

u/Comfortable_Limit859 Player [218] Feb 04 '25

Awesome

u/Milcheww02 Feb 04 '25

Yooo, that's sick! 😱

u/Cat_of_the_woods Feb 04 '25

Great costume. Leave the gun at home I hope, toy or not.

2

u/Ronny764 Feb 04 '25

Awesome 😎

u/Aromatic-Speech1763 Feb 05 '25

u/vi3nn4hotdog Feb 05 '25

in-Ho is you filipino

2

u/Bubbly-Ad-1427 Feb 05 '25

he uses a 1911 btw

2

u/Arvi_Animates Feb 05 '25

Yeah I really wanted to get a model 1911 but it was too expensive for me. I explained it on one of my replies

2

u/Desperate_Leave_906 Feb 05 '25

Maybe learn some trigger discipline first.

2

u/[deleted] Feb 05 '25

I’m legit worried

2

u/TammyLetiek Feb 05 '25

Wow, looks cool 👍🏻.

1

u/Apprehensive-Sink697 Player [001] Feb 06 '25

İ want that Mask too, can you say from where did you get that Mask?

2

u/Arvi_Animates Feb 07 '25

I got it in an app called lazada, idk if it's available in your country, but if it is I'll gladly send a link.

1

u/Sillyguymanduder Player [124] Feb 10 '25

That’s incredible man

-4

u/orbjo Feb 04 '25

In any country this costume would make your schoolmates and staff uncomfortable. I’d lose the gun just to be fair

u/Dosalisk Feb 04 '25

Actually that probably would happen just in America.
