Let's see...

Long guns:

-Winchester .300 Win Mag (w/muzzle brake & trigger job) Text
-Beretta 20 gauge Over/Under shotgun Text This is my favorite gun of the bunch, I could shoot it all day. It's my pride and joy.
-Ruger 10/22 w/scope
-Winchester 12 gauge pump
-Savage 12 gauge pump
-Winchester lever action .44 Magnum
-MAC-90 7.62x39mm Semi-Auto
-AK knock off, I think this one is Russian made (it isn't actually mine, I'm holding onto it for a friend-then again, I've been holding onto it for her for about 8 years now...her ex-husband gave it to her and I don't think she really wants it, she also gave me about 8 30 rnd magazines for it)

Handguns: Text

-Colt Officer's Model Series 80 (w/King's recoil spring guide rod kit, beavertail grip safety, trijicon night sights and a King's trigger & trigger job-all work done by King's Gun Works, Glendale, CA)
-Para-Ordnance LDA 7.45 .45ACP
-Smith & Wesson model 629 w/8" barrel
-Beretta Tomcat .32ACP
-Glock model 17 (w/4 17 round Glock magazines)

So, 12 guns in all that are mine.

I posted this a while ago but thought it would be a good link to include here. This is a watermelon I shot and captured on video. I shot it at about 50 yards with the .300 Win Mag rifle. This is a still captured from the video itself. The camcorder was setup on a tripod about 20 yards from the watermelon. I have a link to the vid if anyone wants it I'll try to dig it up.

Aw hell, here you go...Vid

I don't like to hunt. I don't get any satisfaction killing little animals. I'm not a vegetarian, mind you, but I don't enjoy the action of personally killing things.

I second that thought as well. Even though I do hunt bird, deer, elks. I only hunt for food and I perfer this due to the fact that I won't get one everytime, I might will not even see any game for me to shoot at so i go home empty handed.

Although, now I'm currently switching from hunting to long range shooting sport using my .22-250 Savage Varmit 112BSSV Bolt Action Rifle. Aha I'll be posting in pictures shortly enough.

A bunch of Mosin Nagants (various models Russian and Finnish)
Several Enfields (mostly No.4 Mk.1s)
Some Mausers (M48 Yugos, K98, Chilean, Turkish, etc..)
6 or so SKSs (Yugoslav, Chinese, Albanian)
Cetme
Galil (ARM .223)
FAL
SAR1 (Romanian AK)
Remington .22
Swiss K31
2 M1 Garands
1903A3 Springfield (Smith Corona production)
Beretta 96
Ruger P89T
Ballester Molina
Tangfoglio Standard .45
Enfield No.2 Mk.1
Bulgarian Makarov
Winchester Defender 12ga

There is more but I can't remember it right now and I am nowhere near my collection.

i think you'll have to go used for the p228. from what i recall, that model has gone military/law enforcement only. i had one for a while - one of the best 9mm i've ever shot. you can get the p229 which is just as good and is available for general sale.
good luck

I only personally own a 12 gauge shotgun, but my dad owns about 20 rifles, some muzzleloaders, and even has an elephant gun...not sure on what the specifics are on an elephant gun though, and I've never seen it been shot.

I'd like to get a Mateba Unica 6 or a Sig p226 sometime though :)
