What other firearms do you own?

A .357, .44 mag a over & under and a side by side
But my fav is locked up in the bank deposit box.
I have my under & over by my feet 24/7. I use them to scare the coyotes and other wildlife off my land. I have exotic birds and they like to go shopping in my yard for their dinner. I would never shoot a animal... EVER...But a human being?? Stay off my property and you won't get hurt!! I can & will put a slug in your arse if I feel threatened in any way. And I would have no guilty feelings for putting a cap in someone ass. An animal I'd die if I hurt one. But a human?? Watch out I have no fear!!!

Did you do this?

No, Not me!! I have never shot a human being, But that don't mean I won't if threatened. A gun is NOT a FREAKING TOY!!!!!!! I have the utmost respect for ALL firearms. Not to mention it is one of MY RIGHTS to own and bare arms!!! I have a 12 year old grandson who is showing signs of being a marksmanship. And he too has the respect and understanding of firearms at his age. I'am a proud owner and operator of my guns...

i have never held a real gun in my life.

Whoa, a little defensive are we? I too have owned firearms nearly all my life. Currently all I have a Ruger 10/22 which is not much more than a gopher gun since I don't hunt game anymore (too lazy and a shit shot to boot). I have also over the years owned a 30-30, 30.06 and a 12 gauge pump (well the 12 gauge i only owned for about 10 min before I sold it back to the gun store, it was my 5 year anniversary gift from my employer, I bought a guitar with money). I've never owned a hand gun though, I'd like to get a D.E. .50 caliber, nice (not-so)little hand cannon. But they are spendy and so is the ammo. Still, you can hunt bear with them sons-uv-bitches, if you're willing to get close enough. In any case, I completely support the right of law abiding citizens to own a firearm(s) regardless of what country you are from or your country's gun laws.

Whoa??? A little defensive?? You bet your musical playing arse I'am.... I've lived in Chicago my whole life up untill 5 years ago...
The only one's that had guns then were the gangbangers and theives. and after being robbed at gunpoint in front of my daughters, I was helpless to this punk. after that was over and things were cool I bought my 1st snub nose .38
and went on from there. never again would my babies fear for their lives ever again so yeah ....I'm OBBESSED with them.... But I have RESPECT for them as well....like I said before
I'm not a violent person but can be if threatened

Well that makes a bit more sense now. Every law abiding citizen should carry in a city like Chicago. I grew up in and still live in a state who's entire population is maybe 1/10 of the city of Chicago. Crime is far less of an issue here. 11 years ago when I was in high school shotguns and rifles were about as common in my classmates' vehicles in the fall (hunting season) as empty fast food bags and pop bottles. But even we are no longer immune to the the zero-tolerance bullshit. It took hold here not to long after I graduated. Now if you forget to leave your hunting weapon at home, even a bow, after a weekend of hunting, expect some hoplophobe to report to the principle that we have another columbine about to unravel. Not really though, someone just forgot to disassemble, trigger lock and lock away in a secure underground storage facility their shotgun after a weekend of pheasant hunting and now some poor idiot has the misfortune to see something so scary as a tool.

In any case, just don't shoot first and ask questions later unless of course the situation is blatantly obvious and no questions are needed. Also don't spin handguns on your finger like in old westerns, it looks cool, but you'll just shoot yourself in the foot.

i had a water pistol once.

i remember,this big lad bullied me,so i peed in my water pistol and when i passed him i squirted it all over is coat.tee hee.

well i was only 22 years old.

my water pistol.mean looking eh.

I hope you remembered to put the safety catch on so you didn't wet your pants.

I thought the 50 cal was called a Desert Storm and the 44 auto mag was the eagle?

I'm no firearms expert but I believe the desert eagle is or has been manufactured in all of the following calibers... .357 Magnum, .41 Magnum, .44 Magnum, .440 Cor-bon and .50 Action Express. Thank you wikipedia.

Yeah I know and have used the magnums, I've not come across the .440, but I'am sure the .50 cal came out shortly after the gulf war of 1990 and named after the operation by the allied forces. Then again I am working from memory and details do get sketchy after 17 yrs or so.

Have you ever perused this site... http://www.abovetopsecret.com/ ? Bring a train load of salt and check it out. (the salt is for every grain that you gotta take when you read these stories, but some of it IS useful)

You seem to have the same philosophy as me I've shot cardboard, ballons, cigarettes, playing cards, skittles and the odd melon, I used to own a model 586, and a Gold Cup until the govenment decided that over 6,000,000 of the population were all mentally unstable.

I have a crab apple tree that I use the apples for target practice.I have a piece of wood 4 feet wide with 6 inch screws, I put the apples on the screws and make a game out of it for my grandson & me. I have the apples in order according to size or I put up water bottles filled with colored water..
We must teach the young RESPECT & Understanding
of all fire arms. So far he can break down all but 2 of my arms. clean & polish like brand new!

i used to squirt bees when they went into a flower but i was a terrible shot and missed them most of the time.

Bloody hell, that must have been painful, squirting bees!

Oh...


Oh I see...


You mean with your water pistol.



Silly me.

Yeah I hated cleaning them as well we're going to Australia later in the year, and the missus has a cousin in the police force, I am hoping to get on a range and see how crap I've become over the years!!!

Naw,,, It's like riding a bike, we never forget.

i`m not very good at riding bikes, i keep falling off and getting boo boo`s. hence my tricycle.

I haven't forgot it's the lack of practice, the last time I entered a large caliber competions was just over 10 yrs ago and the last time I held a firearm of any size was about 8 yrs ago.

i have a gun for shooting monkeys

I like your gun most of all Konifur.... not a fan of guns but shooting monkeys with bananas must be fun
