    Hey, just wanted to see how many of you guys had ever shot a gun/shoot regularly.


    Me and my dad sometimes go out and blow holes in trees with his Remington 870 20G (i think thats it)

    But what do you guys like to do?

    I have a 1946 Mosin Nagant 7.62X54R. It only holds 5 rounds(with 1 chambered) But it is as simple of a rifle as you will ever find and it sounds like a cannon when you shoot it. We go to the free shooting range down at West Point. If you happen to have a mosin and you want the range to yourself all you have to do is shoot about 15 rounds back to back and people will start to leave. I am now looking for a set of cheap matching single shot breach action 20g's.

    all that tin may be getting to your brain, because I don't quite remember the conversation going that way. But it is too nice for what i would like to do to a pair of 20g's. It would almost be a sin to deface such a nice shotgun.

    I've just got a Marlin .22
    But I've shot AR-15's, a Lueger, Remington 700, an M1 Garand, and a bunch of other stuff.
    I think my favorite gun I've ever shot is a Springfield 1911 with tritium sights. That thing is sweet.

    M1 Garand is an amazing gun. I personally own a Taurus PT-99 9mm. Love it. I shoot as much as I can.

    Well to contribute, I'm friends with the son of the guy who started double bubble(you know the gum), anyways he sold it to tootsie roll for like $300 million or somethin like that and bought like every gun on the face of the planet. I go to shoot with them all the time. You name it I've shot it at least once. I'd have to say the best gun I've ever shot was the HK G36K followed by the FN M249 MKII.

    I went an shot a few guns the other week:

    2011, AR-15 w/ 9mm mod, AR-15 w/ Suppressor.

    Suppressors make your eyes water almost too much to shoot though...

    Is that sarcasm?

    I've had no such problem with the suppresed guns I've fired.

    We had just cleaned all of the ones that we used... so there was some cleaning solution still left in them, but it shot out quite a bit of vapor out of the back, making it very hard to breathe and shoot!
