hell yea bro. the colt 1911s retail for around $1000, so $355 for a replica is good... assuming it wont jam or blow up on you

**Tren Bull** · 04-02-2006, 07:00 PM

i think ive made up my mind though. il either get a .357 or .44 mag revolver, or a beretta 92F

cool thanks for the feedback bro. i figured the hi point guns were cheaply made. im glad to hear the norinco 1911s are as good as the colt made 1911s. looks like the norinco 1911 is back for consideration. it all depends on whats on sale when im ready to buy

i want a gun so i can get really drunk, then drive around my neighborhood and shoot mailboxes

**Tren Bull** · 04-03-2006, 03:11 PM

that sounds like a great idea doesn't it?

**Tren Bull** · 04-03-2006, 03:15 PM

actually im just kidding. btw, i think its funny when people ask me questions like this. why do you spend hundreds of dollars on something? its cause you want it. i love guns, i truly enjoy looking at the guns that i have. besides, its a nice feeling to know that when i hear something strange in my house, i can load up my shotgun and go see what it is. if its a burglar, you better believe they will regret breaking into my house

**stayinstacked** · 04-03-2006, 03:17 PM

www.extremeammo.com , they sell some pretty deadly ammo on this site, go read some of the shit they have!!!

**Tren Bull** · 04-03-2006, 03:21 PM

hmm, that link takes me to a search engine kinda page. are you sure thats the page you meant for me to see?

**n4529359** · 04-03-2006, 05:04 PM

oh ok fair enough
it just seemed strange that u wanted somthin reliable as if u use it regularly and u have problems with jamming and stuff

**RuhlFreak55** · 04-03-2006, 05:20 PM

i just dont like it when my gun jams. or even worse if it were to blow up on me. dont worry, im not gonna do anything illegal with my guns, im just gonna look at them alot, and shoot them when i can

**zimmy** · 04-03-2006, 07:21 PM

alot of the guns suggested here are kinda inefficient. Tek 9's are horrible guns. That is why they are so cheap. 1911's used to be the best but now they are just entirely to heavy and bulky when compared to other weapons...it does make it a bit more durable, but if you compare it to guns like glocks that weight half of it and shoot more rounds...

First off you have to look at a couple of factors

1) What do you want the gun for?

What i mean by that, are you going to take the thing to the range mostly? Or are you going to have a CHL? Or do you want it for home protection? Do you have kids, family, or roomates around that you need to worry about ?

If you are just going to take it to the range to plank away...Taurus's are great. They are pretty cheap and pretty durable. I personally like shooting 40's the best at the range... 9's are boring and 45's are louder but the paper really doesn't show much of a difference and it's a bit more expensive for the ammo even if you reload. If you are going for personal protection of yourself (CHL) then i'd recommend you save up a little and buy something a little more costly. Glock makes a good sub compact and compact .40 . So does SIG. For concealment i don't recommend anything above .40, just not very practicle and despite what most people think about power, getting off 9 accurate bullets off with a .40 is better than getting 5 accurate ones with a .45. If it's a home protection thing and you live alone...a nice shotgun works great for apt's and houses. No i'm not talking slugs.

im thinkin id use this next gun for target shooting. i already have a 12 gauge shotgun and a compact glock .45, so im good for self/home defense. im really leaning towards the beretta 92F. that gun is sexy, plus its pretty likely that il be able to get one off gunbroker for about $400

well abstrack told me to just start a topic about whatever I wanted to talk about...so as long as we dont just post stuff like "refresh" or "work is boring" then we should be okay...we just have to actually be saying something you know?
