I'm getting a 1911, seems like wife has decided for me. Now to decide how wild to go...I may pick up a STI.

Feel free to toss some ideas around.

i think thats what im going to do with my other lower , good call on the .50 . this way i can use 30 rd clips for it to hold 10 .50 rds. sucks in ca , 30 round clips arent allowed as well as having to use the bullet button.

i found a nice acog with a red chevron and a rmr red dot for 1400 , i think ill be getting this to compliment the piston gun and will be ordering the parts for the .50 beowolf setup soon . sucks ammo is so $$ for that though. almost 2 bucks a shot.

I think I am going to pick up a cheap 22, looking at the marlin 60, to shoot for fun and get the girlfriend more comfortable around shooting guns. Ill be honest, she is a terrible shot and im out of ideas on how to get her to be more accurate, I think she is just nervous being around a guns so im going to try a very easy to shoot one.

Also shot one of my friends toys this weekend, it was badass

It's sad how many people are afraid of guns I guess that's what society is turning into these days. Whether it's the anti-gunners trying to scare everyone saying how dangerous they are, or if it's the government slowly trying to phases us out. I've always wanted to take people who've never shot or even held a gun to the range to have some fun, but it'd cost too much money for me.

Dude marlin model 60 was my first gun. Hands down best auto 22 on the market. Get your girl ear plugs and ear muffs. The noise is usually the problem with girls and guns . My ten year old learned with a gem tech supressor. She is a great shot. Her mother I had pro trained . She is pretty awesome now.

Well so far this year I finally converted my Saiga 7.62.

I was toying with the idea of suppressors for my .308, 5.56, & the 9mm. This way I could finally put my NFA trust to use.....and yes Sean Cody is who I went with for my trust.

Hell, I may just pick up a Bushmaster BA50 this year. As far as pistols go, I really want a Razorcat.
