Anyone else here a gun enthusiast? I'm just now really getting into collecting and firing guns on a constant basis. Just bought a Rock Island Armory (aka Colt) .45 M1911A1.

Badass.

Pics forthcoming

O yeah. The palm grip safety, nice and heavy. Much better than these terrible, plastic new fangled handguns. I've put ~750 rounds through it and it's fantastic. No jams, nothing. DEAFENINGLY loud though.

Re: Guns Guns Guns
 

I've gone to the gun range a few times... I shot some sweet semi auto rifle with a badass scope/s. (You could change the scope type and the color!) It was smooth and no kickback and honestly as soon as I fired it I wanted it. Unfortunately I can't remember what type it was.

Then I shot this thing.

Russian SKS. Not only was it ridiculously heavy, but the kickback hurt like crazy. Never picking that thing up again.

O yeah. SKS's buck like crazy. Anything that fires a 7.62mm round is gonna hurt a bit. Would love to know what kind of scope was on the rifle you shot. I'm looking into buying an AR-15 and a scope like that would be sweeeeeeeeeeeeet The bayonet on that SKS is badass too

I'm definitely a rifle/shotgun chick. Handguns just don't do it for me.

Re: Guns Guns Guns
 

I have a couple of Bushmaster's. .223 is truly a blast on the range....no recoil...cheap...accurate.
I have not looked in a while but the Bushmasters have a good rep and I can vouch for the quality. I was.....just thinking about hittin' a gun show in the next month or so for some Galco leather.

I thought the same until I bought this thing. I really got it for home protection but now its more of my toy, with my Stephens 12 gauge being the real protection now. I like the .45 because the ammo is relatively cheap and easy to find.

Re: Guns Guns Guns
 

Yea I have a few.
Heres my Turk short.

Here's my newest -
Smith & Wesson M&P 9mm Pro (night sights, lighter trigger)

I've got a bunch more. One of my favorites is an old Colt Woodsman .22 that I inherited. It is a solid firearm; cheap to shoot (can shoot all day for just a few bucks), and very accurate. One of my other favorites is a blacked out Mossberg 500 12ga with a pistol grip. It's a great home defense weapon. It looks awesome, too. :D

I have the same gun and love it, also have shot a 30.6 and a 22 but rather stick w hand guns

Re: Guns Guns Guns
 

Well...now the mods know who NOT to ban and piss off

Re: Guns Guns Guns
 

I'm not an owner, but do enjoy going to the range/etc. There are some pretty decent places to do trap shooting in the DMV

Re: Guns Guns Guns
 

Glock 19, Hydra-Shok rounds.

I would love to have a Kimber 1911 but I want a motorcycle first.

Re: Guns Guns Guns
 

Here is a glock 17 i sweetened up a little bit:

i traded the gun, but I kept all the mags and the fun little bayonet. So basically now im in the market for a glock 17 again.....

After shooting a couple rounds out of a hand gun they loose all apeal to me. Rifles and shotguns are definitely the way to go for fun.

I have several SKS's but i absoultely love shooting them. So much fun. I like a little kick. There mags/stripper clips are a bitch to deal with though.

That's the one I had, just couldn't remember the name of it. Got in to a lot of trouble in college with that thing lol.

Sorry, didn't mean to get the thread off track. Please resume the real gun talk.

Re: Guns Guns Guns
 

One of these for a concealed carry, please:

*cue koolaid guy busting through wall* O YEEAAAAAAAHHHHH

A Kimber 1911 would be awesome, great guns but ill be damned if im gonna pay 1100+ for a damn .45.

Absurd. I could just gut my RIA and refit it for less than that. I lookin to get a little .22lr plinker at the gunshow tomorrow. So cheap and fun to shoot.

Re: Guns Guns Guns
 

My brother in law just got a Browning Buck Mark. It's a solid little 22.

Re: Guns Guns Guns
 

Huge Gun Show over in W. Palm Beach this weekend. I think I'll head over in the morning....always a good time.

Re: Guns Guns Guns
 

Just bought a .22lr Sig Mosquito at the CET yesterday. Gonna go to the range today and pound 300 rounds through it. Sexy pistol, really got it to teach my girl how to shoot cuz my .45 freaks her the f out, lol.

Re: Guns Guns Guns
 

heres a few of mine
[IMG]http://i874.photobucket.com/albums/ab307/mlmdub130/guns.jpg[/IMG]
my personal favorite had to be the taurus .38 revolver, that thing is so much fun to load and shoot, i really want to get an old ivory grip western style 6 shooter next. but my remmington .22 is a close second, i have 3 30 round banana clips for it. get it oiled up and put out 90 rounds in about 30 seconds with little to no recoil, good times. then theres the mossburg pump the first gun i ever owned, and i also have a .45 and a .22 sig.

i haven't shot anything in a while, we used to go shooting in culpepper on a buddy's family land. for me shooting out in the open is way better than being at an indoor range. does anyone know if any good outdoor ranges in va?

thats the exact same gun i bought to teach my wife how to shoot with, mines all black though. its a solid gun and not a bad price at all, it's a little louder than i thought it would be though, being a .22 and all

I thought it was a great price for SIG quality, 330$. Weird about it being loud, thats one of the reasons I got her a .22, lol.

Haven't fired it yet but I plan on hitting the country with some friends and putting 300-400 rounds through it this weekend. CANT WAIT!

Love that remington .22, I want one! I dont know of any outdoor ranges, at least not around the richmond area. I'm like you, much prefer to be out in the elements when shooting, seems more natural.

yeah i actually scored mine for right around $300 as well. i was kind of blown away that you could get a sig for such a low price. i have actually only fired mine twice, but it was louder than i was expecting. it did not have much recoil, just a little more pop than i thought it would, once my wife heard it she got a little freaked out and we didn't have any hearing protection since i didn't think we'd need it. let me know what you think after you shoot it this weekend.

Agreed! That is pretty freakin awesome! Glad to a group out there not only advocating the training but safety in the use of guns with kids.

[I].....the new pulse gun is a lightweight device supposed to be an improvement over the existing — and often limited — stun guns. The weapons’ effects doesn’t last that long, allowing the victim to recover as soon as the flow of electricity stops. The Pentagon now wants an improved device that could disable the enemy and render him unconscious for several minutes.[/I]

Want one!
