Anyone into guns?

godabandonedme - 11-14-2007 at 08:42 AM

I'm no redneck, but I like guns. :rolleyes:

Ok maybe a little of a redneck but I live in the big city.....

godabandonedme - 11-14-2007 at 08:59 AM

Yea, six cops shot in the last month or so. One killed. Two Narcotics Field Unit guys serving a warrent last night where shot. This city blows......seriously. It's a shame cause alot of people don't deserve a gun shoved in their face when they do something innocent like panicking an reaching somewhere they shouldn't for something like an ID or registration. That being said, I'm going home at night, so if I scare Joe Citizen a little bit I will apologize, but fuck this place, it's litterally a warzone and I wana keep the same amount of holes I have in me........

RomanticViolence - 11-14-2007 at 09:46 AM

Yes.
I like guns.
That is all.

XHonusWagnerX - 11-14-2007 at 10:15 AM

Guns interest and scare me at the same time. Ive never shot one... actually I dont think Ive ever even held a real one.

morgan - 11-14-2007 at 10:27 AM

Yeah as bad as it sounds, I'm a gun nut. I've managed to piece together a small armory at this point.

CR83 - 11-14-2007 at 11:33 AM

I have no use for a gun. I've shot plenty and I've hunted a little. I have friends who get off on shooting guns and it never really made sense to me.

JUICE MAYNE MSHC - 11-14-2007 at 11:55 AM

Guns :thumbup:

Started shooting when I was a real little kid because my dad was way into guns, as most proper Southern gentlemen are.

BKT - 11-14-2007 at 12:06 PM

I love them and I just got myself a desert eagle after being in Vegas and having the chance to shot one at the range. The gun is a god damn hand cannon.

MM.

Voodoobillyman - 11-14-2007 at 12:32 PM

yup, guns are fun. I had to qualify on the 240, 249B and of course my 9mm and M4. The fully automatic weapons ranges were tough, but fun. The furthest targets were 800 yards.

upyerbum - 11-14-2007 at 12:55 PM

I used to shoot competetively in the military, never really kept it up, but I do enjoy shooting. I like firing a bow as well, same principles apply but the mechanics are totally different.

So what would you use something like that for? Just to shoot at a range or something?

Yes that is what you would use it for. Also it is a nice gun to look at. LOL. I have to honest with you it really serves no other purpose than killing someone really dead, which I have no plans on doing, or just going to the range.

godabandonedme - 11-14-2007 at 09:41 PM

Voodoo, what are you guys using?? From what I've heard, Army spec ops like delta force have been using the new HK 416. I REALLY want one of them, but they are not availble in America for civilians yet. They basically took the old Stoner design that worked decently and revamped it by changing the gas system and completely uliminated all the problems with the current M16/M4 platform (carbon residue causing failures, etc. etc.). I've heard supposed horror stories about the M4 in the mideast an it's a shame. The company LWRC makes an amazing rifle based on the Stoner outer design but with a similar HK internal gas system.

godabandonedme - 11-14-2007 at 09:44 PM

Yea Juan I hear ya:

"That's my Bo! He wouldn't do no nothin like dat! He a church goin bua!"

I like how the day/night it happened some fucking dirty crits had the audasity to go on the news and say "How we gona take our youngins trick n treatin wit all deeze poleece out hearya?" Fucking people are animals plain and simple. Keep your bullshit comments about racism to yourselves, live it then come see me.

JawnDiablo - 11-15-2007 at 02:27 AM

the new guy i have workin for me that my boss stuck with me is from that part of town and was talking endless shit like that. i came pretty close to flipping on him but bit my tongue being hes black and im white and guess whos side all the PC HR assholes in my job would probably take...

Standard issue is the M4 or a version of the M16 if you prefer or are not slated to do much roaming amongst the locals. The M4 is a great rifle, but does need to be maintained heavily here due to the enviroment. Sand is a bitch. We also have the standard Beretta 9mm side arm. 240's as a replacement for the M60 and 249's for sheer fire superiority. I have heared those bitches rockin and rollin many anight here and I almost feel bad for the douchebags on the loosing end of that fight.....almost

Voodoobillyman - 11-15-2007 at 03:03 PM

Oh, and if you find the need to carry a blade on you for your field of work or play, I highly recommend a Kershaw, that bitch has saved many a life over here and will never let you down.

clevohardcore - 11-15-2007 at 03:41 PM

I have a SPRINGFIELD XD-40.

I have respect for hte gun. Last week I was at the range and the range officer was going over some stuff with me and for some fucking reason I gripped the trigger of a Sig p226 40 caliber. Of course at the range I had pointed to the ground. It shot into the gravel and scared the shit out of everyone else on the range. Needless to say much apologies were had by me. I finished my shoot and all was good but that freaked me out. I need more training to make myself more comfortable. Once a month is not enough for me right now.

I also shoot a remington shotgun. Use both buck and slugs. Trained in setting them up for cruiser duty and safety. Also for rapid fire which is pretty intense for a shotgun.

Voodoobillyman - 11-15-2007 at 03:59 PM

oh yeah, we have pistol grip Mossbergs for breaching, if that aint a fuckin wake up call, some dynamic entry team blowin the fuckin hinges off yer door with that beast before bum rushing into your joint.

i used to have a Kershaw.
I loved it.
Got stolen off me by some mexican....
seriously

JawnDiablo - 11-15-2007 at 04:23 PM

I've considered purchasing a handgun.
Think is I know nothing about such things.
I wasn't raised around guns at all.
Only time I've been around them is friends who are police officers and other friends who the cops are after...yeah go figure.
Never shot anything of caliber larger than a daisy bibi rifle.
Guns intriuge me (sp)
However I'd also purchase a lock box and stuff to keep junior's curious paws at bay...and me girlfriend on a drunken night...nah not really, she'd rather throw shit,...

DaveMoral - 11-15-2007 at 08:00 PM

I have a couple Glocks. Used to shoot pretty often, but I haven't been in like 2 or 3 years. Shit, I need to clean my shit too. I'm guilty of not being the best at upkeep.

I'll be straight with you, the only thing that really really bothers me about all this Hullaballoo since Officer Cassidy was killed is that the media makes a bigger deal out of a cop getting shot than about the 300 other people killed in this fucking city. I mean, you dudes are on the frontlines and it should be kind of expected that you could be popped any day. It's the same thing with soldiers in wars man. It should come as no surprise when this shit happens. It's like things are "really bad" when cops are getting killed, but how does that make it that things are "really bad?" It's not really bad that 300 other motherfuckers are dead 3/4 through the year? 200 of them before the first 6 months of the year was out.

I swear, you don't hear this much hollering from the media when a 6 year old girl gets shot.

godabandonedme - 11-15-2007 at 08:33 PM

No, it's not really bad that 300 other people are getting killed. 98% of them are scumbags anyway. We are different, we are special, and like it or not we are better then the "average" Joe for what we do. And "average" these days is just some low life living off the system and our money. A 6 year old girl gets shot cause the scumfuck drug boys can't shoot straight. A 15yr old gets shot cause he stepped on someones new kicks. A 18yr old gets shot over a nickle an dime drug corner. A cop gets shot it is a bigger deal because society has certain moral virtues that never change, they are just discarded by the lowest of lifeforms that cause most of problems in society today. What did John, Jamal, Mike an the other 297 ever do to deserve more then a cheap headstone compared to what we do EVERYDAY? Am I surprised when a cop gets shot? No. When a cop like Skerski or Cassidy is flat out executed, and 5 others are shot within 20 days, almost 40 since the beginging of the year are shot at, yes I'm surprised. It goes to show the lack of disrespect for community, law, commen morals, self etc. that these animals have, even though they've had every oppurtunity and more (then most) to become decent humans. Getting in a shotout is a byproduct of my job, not what we expect to do everyday. A cop getting shot doing his job is a huge deal simply because your not the one doing that job.

I was going to reply but you pretty much summed up what was on my mind.
I'm also tired of hearing people cry racism and how the systems got you down and all that other horseshit. Maybe its all the fatherless households, the glamourising of the "thug life", and the whole attitude of why get a job wen i can make babies and get paid for it and get me some state paid healthcare. I have this new piece of shit working for me who's from N Philly. He brags how his brothers the biggest hustler droppin mad cash on cars and how hes got his babys mammas and how hes looking to get himself in a HUD house and how he should be gettin some food stamps cuz its just hard in the game yo. Meanwhile dude has like 3 pairs of tims, always has the newest cell phone or PS3 or whatever. in short this dudes scum in my book. fuck him. his way of life offends me.
it is sad, and tragic that all these 300 people got shot and killed but for the most part, a large percentage of them were wrapped up in the lifestule, in corner gangs, or just bound to end up dead or in prison in the long run...and don't even get me started on the Stop Snitching bullshit.

just started getting into Trap shooting.

Picked up a sweetheart of a Winchester Model 12 made back in 1939.

Bustin' clays with that old Pump Action 12 gauge is truly a joy.

As far as wheel guns guns I like Ruger the most. Don't like S&W but for a very unfair reason.

I'm from Mass. Not the most gun friendly place on the planet.

Happen to just stumble into another post on here, and figured I'd join up and take a look around.

I'm not so much into the new Smiths since the whole "lock" debacle.

I do have two very nice old Model 19's.

There was a nice used Ruger Security Six I was interested in a while back, but turned out it couldn't be sold to a Ma. resident. We have some real insane laws here. It was a nice shooter though. The Rugers are fine fine guns.

I tend to go after old Colts for the most part though. I have some rangeing from the 1910's through the late 50's.

Finding used Colts here in Ma. is very difficult. They have to have been in State before Oct. of 1998 or else you can't buy them. Creates a virtual legal Black Marketl Once in a while I'll find one that I can afford though.
Can't buy a new Colt here in Mass either.

^^^^^^^^^^ I was in the same boat about 2 years ago. I got some suggestions from people. I ended up buying a SPRINGFIELD XD-40.

I would suggest this gun because of the 3 safety controls and ease of operation. PLus its like a GLOCK in that you can easily clean and assemble your gun too. Its not difficult. MOst importantly the price and reputation of SPRINGFIELD is great.

Check them out..

mikeoffbase - 11-16-2007 at 11:54 PM

Just got back from the range.

100 rounds through my 4" S&W model 19.

Got to try out a friends M1 Garand.

Diagnosed a failiure to fire problem on a Glock 19. Worn out spring.

A good night all around.

godabandonedme - 11-17-2007 at 05:33 AM

I was never a fan of S&W. My grandfather took me shooting every weekend when I was younger. Even bought me and my brother matching ak-47s (.22cal). Awsome. For handguns I really only carry my city glock, 18rds works for me! A little big but since I'm so used to it I might just get a smaller one for off duty. I really want to get a new rifle soon. This is what I'm thinking about.....

God that looks sssssssssooooooooooo hot...
