Yeah when your Grand-daddy says "Boah in mah day we use ta have ta make our own damn 'mote control!"

He was usually talking about a stick.

Well now, i'f we're expanding the discussion to firepower:

Taurus PT-99 with adjustable target sights. Bouth it in '91 with some swag I saved up in the Gulf War, added Pachmyer neoprene grips. Still ticking like a Swiss watch after 15 years of heavy use, best goddam $279 I ever spent.

Charles Daly M-5 hi-cap .45 auto (factory mag holds 10, I'm shopping for 14-round mags). Christmas gift from my dad...shoots as good as it looks.

CETME Modelo C .308 assault rifle. Painted the furniture flat black.

Lee/Enfield .303 bolt-action rifle. Been in constant use from the British colonial wars to the Mujahideen resistance during the Soviet invasion.

 

[Sinister]

That bolt-action is beyond sweet.

I took these on my phone...

My Katanas...

Close up of hilt...

The hilts are cobra heads and the scabbards are snakeskin.

I have a lot more, but they are in a safe place. Not good to keep easily accessible.

 

[Sinister]

lol At first I was like "are those fucking UMBRELLAS?"

You wouldn't be the first!! They really are beautiful though.

 

[Doop]

i would but i cant so i tell you what it looks like its brown and has little pieces of corn in it

 

[Sinister]

Doop what the Hell are you talking about?

I don't have a gun yet (waiting until I get to Vegas), but when I buy one I've had my heart set on this one since I first ever held it:

The weight felt perfect and the Blue Steel was cold as ice. Lovely.

Glock

 

[Vilo Magee]

If I knew how to post pictures and had a digital camera that worked i would post up my Glock model 17, CZ Rami , 357 smith & Wesson snubby, winchester 12 guage but I am a newbist with no camera

 

[owai]

LAst year when i was in Florida i went to the shooting wrange with my brother and my dad , awesome experience , and they should make it a law if your in the uk to go to a shooting range if you visit the us ,
shot a Glock 40. 9mm Berretta and a Glock 9mm , i really think that was the highlight of my holiday going to the shooting range.

Te only thing i have is a smith and wesson lock knife which s a a pussy thing lol just for general use.

 

[Kyryllo]

The most beautiful handguns are the Walther P88 and the Berretta FS92 IMO. The Ruger is a bit unestetic if you ask me.

 

[Kyryllo]

And the Colt 1911 and it's look alikes are nice opticaly.

sure look cool. are they functional though?

 

[GCSD Fighter]

They are actually. The weight of the hilt adds good stability for me. If don't wanna chop a mofo, you can always smash an opponent in the face with it. But serious, I have other shit for more practical purposes.

Dude I've shot a version of the Blue Steel Ruger 9mm. They're smooth enough for me.

But I do like Glocks as well.

Then again I've also done black-powder hunting and even like muzzle-loaders.

Ruger is a top-drawer gunmaker, their stuff ain't overpriced, and they turn out a solid product. And the Ruger P85 auto was a serious contender with Baretta for the US Army 9mm pistol contract. And I personally prefer them to Glocks, which do not sit well in my hand and possess a passive trigger safety that I dislike.

Preferences vary, bro.

LAst year when i was in Florida i went to the shooting wrange with my brother and my dad , awesome experience , and they should make it a law if your in the uk to go to a shooting range if you visit the us ,

I agree. Then maybe messageboards would have fewer Europeans talking about how they can't understand us Yanks and our damnable obsession with guns.

I've personally won a few converts; fear and loathing of firearms is rooted in the same thing as fear and loathing of many other things: fear and ignorance. Take someone to the range, demistify the weapon, help them experience the joy of putting lead of on target and controlling a lethal weapon, and you frequently have as a result a FORMER anti-gunner.

Glad you had the experience, mate. Reminds me not to take the fact that I can drive down the round and bust caps whenever I want for granted.

Hey Greg, check this out:

My ex-fiance's Uncle is a blacksmith, and was in the Military forever. He works now as an Airline mechanic, but makes metalwork in his off-time. For Christmas three years ago he made his mom (who is German) a miniature replica of a WWI (I think) Canon. Crazy part is this thing actually fired with the power of a 44 Magnum.

I told him he should start a website and sell that stuff, he said it's something he's always wanted to do. I'd sure as shit buy one, and sit it pointing right at my front door. lol
