my xmas present to myself is going to be a chiappa rhino and a boot holster

2017-10-03 03:32:48 UTC  

shot my buddy's at the range this summer and fell in love

2017-10-03 03:33:45 UTC  

and if you do want a home defense shotgun, get a remington 870 home defense, no sense in reinventing the wheel for your first go boom

2017-10-03 04:59:04 UTC  

Thanks for the info. Live in Indiana so gun laws almost non existent. It would just be for home defense (maybe a little range shooting but defense is first priority). Will look at some pistols, think i will go with a good ol boom stick for the first one and then go for a pistol (cant really carry since mostly walking around university)

2017-10-03 05:00:24 UTC  

np, i still recommend a pistol over a shotgun for home defense, like any tool, you gotta practice to be good with it, and you arent going to be going to indoor ranges and shooting your defense length shotgun

2017-10-03 05:01:38 UTC  

best thing there is go to cabelas or bass pro or whatever you have up there on a weekday and talk with the guy at the gun counter

2017-10-03 05:02:17 UTC  

he'll let you handle guns so you can get an idea for what is comfortable in your hands

2017-10-03 05:04:02 UTC  

and i mean a shotgun isnt some terrible bad thing to not buy, its just really easy to go to an indoor range and shoot your pistol, its a giant pain in most places to be able to run a box of shells through your scattergun

2017-10-03 05:05:04 UTC  

its like working out, if you have to drive an hour to your gym, how often are you going to make excuses not to go

2017-10-04 02:09:26 UTC  

This could be very useful for a group of people

2017-10-08 03:19:34 UTC  

they're fun guns to shoot, though i never shot a FA one

2017-10-08 03:19:45 UTC  

definitely not shtf guns though, they're fiddly

2017-10-08 03:21:28 UTC  

yeah its just really cool

2017-10-08 03:21:35 UTC  

what do you think the ideal shtf gun is?

2017-10-08 03:21:58 UTC  

depends on the manner of shtf, like nork nukes or what

2017-10-08 03:22:06 UTC  

I vote shotgun

2017-10-08 03:22:38 UTC  

remington 870

2017-10-08 03:22:42 UTC  

if i have to go live in the woods again forever, probably a tried and true AK

2017-10-08 03:22:59 UTC  

less finnicky in dirty environs

2017-10-08 03:23:19 UTC  

anything else, my ar

2017-10-08 03:23:44 UTC  

maybe an sks or nugget

2017-10-08 03:24:13 UTC  

i bought a cute little carbine a while back that takes my pistol mags, kel-tec sub2000, i like it as a backpack gun, it folds up

2017-10-08 03:25:01 UTC  

i wouldnt want to hunt with it, for numerous reasons, but its sweet for larping at the range

2017-10-08 03:25:26 UTC  

it could be a good urban minority deterrent

2017-10-08 03:25:58 UTC  

this is?

2017-10-08 03:26:05 UTC  

yeah thats it

2017-10-08 03:26:10 UTC  

im watchig that right now haha

2017-10-08 03:26:53 UTC  

"let's see if we can wake up mr. trayvon heh heh heh"

2017-10-08 03:29:26 UTC  

(it wont shoot at a 90 degree angle ofc)

2017-10-08 03:30:16 UTC  

its super light and takes my glock mags, of which i have basically an infinite number

Don't-even-own-a-gun 2 cents here:
I would get an AK- variant. Preferably Finnish or Israeli (yeah I know) because that's the gun I have been trained with in the army (7.62x39). If I were to go for a bigger gun I'd chose a british .303 though. The rapid shooting of the Enfield is pretty amazing in my opinion, unfortunately there's almost no surpluss ammo left.

2017-10-09 22:19:04 UTC  

you can literally buy an american made, billet milled receiver akm made by century for under a grand

2017-10-09 22:19:54 UTC  

there arent any 'cheap ak vars' anymore, you'll pay 5-600 for a wasr 10 or some bulg variant

2017-10-09 22:21:10 UTC  

the comedy option is to buy blanks, a press, and the dies to make your own stamped receivers, telling yourself that in the long run you'll save money cause you want to make like 10 aks

2017-10-09 22:21:50 UTC  

then you realize how shit hard it is to make a gun that works in your garage and you end up with a $2000 ak that shoots like crap
