Eddo36 Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 It's a pain to disassemble and clean, but other than that I added a few modifications and now it's my primary range gun. Anybody else got any to share? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azure79 Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Wow, you really like guns. I have a distant relative that loves guns too. He invited me into his room one time and there were guns mounted and displayed everywhere. There were more guns under his bed. He even had a bow which he let me pull. Pretty cool stuff.

theslug Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Pretty sweet gun dude. btw are you in the military or something? There was a time when I questioned the ability for the schizoid to ever experience genuine happiness, at the very least for a prolonged segment of time. I am no closer to finding the answer, however, it has become apparent that contentment is certainly a realizable goal. I find these results to be adequate, if not pleasing. Unfortunately, connection is another subject entirely. When one has sufficiently examined the mind and their emotional constructs, connection can be easily imitated. More data must be gleaned and further collated before a sufficient judgment can be reached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guard Dog Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 (edited) Eddo, you have WAY too much disposable income. Those pieces are not cheap. And everyone else, cut the man some slack here. He can buy any kind of legal firearm he wants for any reason or no reason. It's in the Constitution. Remember? We discussed all that just a little while ago?

Uh c'mon, a weapon is something that easily creates aggression. And there were some non-bait things in my posting, that I'd like to repeat. Feel free to modify this post, if something's not ok with it. I think such a topic is just bound to cause emotions, so if those are not wanted, there's nothing wrong with the posts, but the thread as a whole... Eddo: Would it be possible to create one thread, like "eddo36's weapon gallery"? This would avoid reposting of the same comments... Another thing is, what is the interest in creating such a thread? Do you want to collect different opinions on you / the NRA / guns in general, or looking for support of your hobby or even antagonism? One other thing I wondered: How much money does your hobby cost you per year (if that is an allowed question.

Guard Dog Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 (edited) Uh c'mon, a weapon is something that easily creates aggression. That statement is a steaming pile of BS. A weapon is an inanimate object, incapable of aggression. If putting a weapon in a persons hand makes them aggressive then that is a character deficency in that individual and has nothing to do with the weapon. By using your logic I might claim that beer has given me a beer gut. But the truth is, that beer would have sat right there on the shelf if I did not buy it. And nothing would have happened if I did not drink it. The fault is not with the beer it's with me. If someone abuses a weapon it is not the fault of the weapon, the people who made it, or other uninvolved people who own a weapon. It is the fault of the indvidual only. We had a gun control thread already. A lot of acrimony, argument, link posting, baiting and it all boiled down to Europeans having a different opinion than North Americans on the subject. And not a little condecension over the cultural differences on both sides.

Eddo36 Posted March 4, 2007 Author Share Posted March 4, 2007 (edited) Well, it's basically just this gun- except I put a sling, forward handgrip, and red dot scope. Will be adding a laser soon, right beneath the barrell. And it's not heavily armed, it's only .22 cal. And I would have posted this on my last thread about the handgun... if it wasn't locked a long time ago for derailment.

Sand Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 A .22 doesn't have much stopping power, but if you can get it to go semiauto or full auto, then it might be worth it.

Guard Dog Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 the .22 is a fine round for target practice but that the heck will you be hunting with it???? Beetles? Hamsters? I've got a story about a relative of mine who shot a black bear with a .22. It's a short story.

Eddo36 Posted March 4, 2007 Author Share Posted March 4, 2007 (edited) It's not as practical for self defense as my 9mm handgun is. Even then, some says that my 9mm has insufficient stopping power. However, I load one of my handgun magazines with this ammo (CorBon Pow'rBall) for self defense- They are kinda like hollow points, except the ball on the tip causes the round to expand. Therefore they got less feeding problems as regular hollowpoints, and there are legal in places where regular hollowpoint rounds aren't. As for the rifle in hunting, mostly just for varmint and plinking. It's no M16, though I can probably get headshots easy with that rifle on big game if I take the time to aim.

Kaftan Barlast Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 blebleble..hollow point..blebleble..stopping power...maximum damage I think its a bit absurd that ammunition which usage is banned my the Haag convention can be used by civilians. Also, wouldnt it be better to use plain FMJ rounds so you run less risk of killing people?
