The Walter White and _aj_ go buy guns thread

[_aj_]

Nothing wrong with a Walther PPQ.   Oh and if you really cared you would gift me one.

Strawman purchase. The ATF hates that.

Not between licensed professionals and ex military.

Of course, it would have to be a H&K he wants gifted. $$$

Should have asked for a Nighthawk 

[Pumpzilla]

What's your opinion on the .500 S&W, AJ? Decent gun or over hyped junk?

Been also thinking of getting a Ruger Super Redhawk.

[Pray_4_War]

Holy shit, did you guys see the government lawsuit against EOTech?

Time to buy an Aimpoint I guess.  lol.

I've only fired the .500 a few times. It's a cannon. The use-cases for it are rare (one shot drop of a Kodiak bear?), so it's mostly a hand-held firework. Even hunting with it is stupid.

I have a SRH in .454 Casull. Mostly got it for the stupid reasons above. The .500 hadn't been released yet.

I should probably get a .50 cal rifle. They are huge and loud and frankly the ballistics of the round isn't that impressive, but they make democrats shit in their pants, and there's definite value there.

My brother has one, like doing db front raises.

I always feel safe when I'm carrying my 25.  So safe, I picked up another one recently

Yeah, the uniqueness of it is what is alluring to me. The reason I'd would rather have
a 1887 lever action shotgun rather than a mossberg pump.

But I hear alot about the kick of a .500. But then I see a woman in her mid to late
40's one handing it like it's no problem.

Depends on the round. I've shot 300gr. bullets that were pleasant and 700gr rounds that had me hanging on for dear life.

[Pumpzilla]

Ah, ok. Yeah she said she never goes over a 400 grain.

Ever hear of the .950 JDJ? A single bullet runs around $40.

Do you reload?

I bet there are tons of getbig liberals lurking in this thread tearing up napkins in anger.

You Americans expecting some kind of break down of society where you are gonna need all these guns?

No.

[Rascal full]

No.

Just like collecting them I guess?

[Twaddle]

Just like collecting them I guess?

Absolutely.  They can be very valuable.     Plus they make great tools.

It's precisely because of "all these guns" that the inevitable breakdown will be vastly more polite than the upheaval coming to Europe.

Seriously, I have an old Sig 226 from before they started putting rails on them, is there a way to bolt a rail to the frame or do I have to get one of those cheesy trigger guard mounted lights?

Just buy one with a rail.  Problem solved.

Gonna have to go cheesy. But revel in your old school 226. They are rare and very nice. And fuck the light and just get meprolight sights.

I was thinking about it today and realized I bought that gun in 97-98

Probably one of the best 9mm guns to suppress. Get an extended, threaded barrel and you are G2G.

[Twaddle]

357 for the win.
