The Gun Thread

I don’t know about everyone else now but I’m ready for some coffee.

Follow that up with an ice pick to the forehead.

Exactly, the gun has to work for the person. After I broke my wrist, I knew I wouldn't be able to handle my .357 as a carry gun for a while, and maybe not ever. So now I have a 9mm SIG.

.22 is quiet(er) and plenty deadly. The 3 most important things about a self defense (or kill) shot are: shot placement, shot placement, and shot placement.

Like this?

My son bought a loaded M1 Garand clip at a gun show, he was so excited. Now all he needs is the M1 Garand oh, and the "ejection ting" is his notification sound on his phone

Good starter gun for hunting

Sweet, now be sure to teach him about 'Garand Thumb' when he finally gets that rifle.

No chance of that happening.

Not anytime soon, anyway.

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy. But after that guessing game I am not sure it matters.

'Breaking wrist down' will cause that.

You can play these love games with me all day and I guarantee you that I don’t care.

I apologize if I offended you.

I'd had no range time, just the class range time.

It was good enough to qualify.

Who was that that suggested a 45.70 lol

That'll go great

Hey, Billy or Bonnie is turning 6 we should get them thier first gun, I know a 45.70. That would be perfect (for them to never want to shoot a gun ever again)

That was me. My first rifle was an 1891 Argentine Mauser in 7.65 x 53. It was four feet long and weighed 9 lbs, I was 8. I'm a poor judge of what's appropriate in the first place, and I tend to jump into the deep end as a first step.

My wife's carry gun is a KelTec P17 in .22 long rifle, 16 in the magazine and one in the pipe. She's comfortable and accurate with it which are the two most important things when choosing an EDC.

My three favorite carry guns; from top, Para Ordnance Super Hawg in .45 ACP, Para Ordnance P12 in .45 ACP, and Beretta Nano in 9mm Para bellum.

Bravo! you are a natural. Most shooting ranges will have small NRA pocket cards for both left and right hand shooters that will help annalize bullet placement. Really handy to keep in your range bag. It looks like this.

I'll put up a pic or two later but I'd prefer to not put pics of all my guns, just isn't me.
