NeoConMan Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Take a look at Carl Rove and tell me that POS would defend himself. He would last longer in Texas than YOU would, I can assure you... Looks can be deceiving - even in Texas, and Karl Rove spent many years there. Here's a little home work assignment for you Homz. Go down to Texas, even Liberal-infested Austin would work but I recommend Dallas or Houston. Go hang out at a gun range during the week. Take a look at the people coming to the range wearing a suit and carrying a briefcase.

FirstMeasure Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I'm afraid if he's seen the light he thinks he saw, That is the ridiculous picture painted by the extreme Right (the only right left), then there is cause for concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thundergod Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Hunting Pistols I have to agree. I see no other use for them' date=' [b']there are better things to use if you go hunting[/b], a handgun is useless for anything but killing people at close range. I didnt say they didnt work for hunting, only that there are better things. Anyway, Im considering buying a gun, what would you guys recommend? It would stay at home and be only for home protection.

KSG_Standard Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 If your only going to use it in the house, get a shotgun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundergod Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 If your only going to use it in the house' date=' get a shotgun.[/quote'] Good advice!:- I have close to none experience with handguns and shotguns, though. The only times I've used any was when I was a kid, my uncle would let me come along when he went practicing with his (awesome collection of) firearms of all allowed types (he had some awesome stuff). Sometimes he let me fire a couple of rounds, he had some friends in the military and I got to fire a machinegun once (dont know the correct term). My father had 2 guns but never let me near them. I guess I'll have to find a place to practice:-k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mick Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 If your only going to use it in the house' date=' get a shotgun.[/quote'] But get it as short as you can a long gun in a house can be hard to maneuver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lancaster, TX; just south of Dallas. My territory was the entire state. I've been all over the state. I don't know who the hell you think I am, but unlike you I don't wear my politics on my sleeve. And BTW in north Dallas there are plenty of liberals. I never had an issue with politics in Texas. In fact if I could pick any state to live in I'd choose Texas. I was sitting three rows up from 3rd base when Nolan Ryan threw his 7th no hitter (Arlington; Texas Rangers). Damn, dude, help me out here, but weren't you born on the wrong side of the Red River. The only people the Texans hate more then Yankees is people from Oklahoma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get some sort of tactical model with a high capacity, and you only need 2.75" shells. Shorter is better. If you have neighbors nearby, or your walls are thin like stucco, siding or tile then you damned sure don't want a pistol.

Homz Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Just for the record. I also lived in Cannon Lake, TX. Just north of San Antonio. Worked construction to make money for college. Also worked in my uncles restaurant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mick Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 With a shot gun there is one warning. When you rack that round into the chamber it is a world wide signal to leave or die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSG_Standard Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 At close range, a shotgun is always a better tool for self preservation. In the US, the most recognizable sound is a pump action shotgun being pumped. The shot gun is much easier to hit the target with and does significantly more damage.

Homz Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 So instead of running away to California or joining the circus' date=' you went to Indiana and joined the union?:-) [/quote'] My job ended in Texas. My skills at the time were less (by far) then they currently are. I moved back home for a time. My dad put my name in at the UAW factory and I took the job. 3 years later I was able to put my Navy training into use and was apprenticed into skilled trades. My father was a UAW. My grand father(paternal) was a Teamster. Nearly everyone I grew up with was Union. If it somehow makes you feel better to help destroy organized labor then by all means have fun with that, but make no mistake you are also hurting millions of others. Not just me. How moral is that.

NeoConMan Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 With no close neighbors to worry about, get a revolver in .357 magnum and load it with a good quality hollow point. I like the Rugers, Smith & Wesson is great stuff too. Shotgun is better in a panic, you're more likely to hit your intended target and it will more likely be lethal. I do not joke about firearm recommendations, it's already a world full of misconceptions. What do the laws in your country allow? Handguns are usually taboo, reserved only for law or military - shotguns are slightly more accepted by most gov't agencies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeoConMan Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 JIDIMB, what stopped you from joining? A .50 is kinda like a Les Paul - how much do you wanna spend? Bolt-action guns are $2k and up, the one like the M1982 (semi-auto) is around $8k. Then there's the cost of care and feeding the beast....
