I own a Colt 9mm, All American (double action only), w/ three 15 shot clips. I should have my license to carry a firearm very soon. ;)

Does a rocket launcher count ? Who needs any of those sissy guns, I want something that makes a lot of fire on both ends of the trajectory. You never know when a burgler will come through the door. Security man, security. Well, at least MY security.

Nope. My dad had a shotgun in Trinidad.

Not right now, but I will.

When I lived with my parents we had plenty:

My dad had several rifles & a shotgun, my 14 year old brother had one of each, & my mom has a .38 revolver that she has never fired.

That's not counting multiple pellet guns, compound bows, tasers, ...

:D

Shouldn't your mom know how to use her gun?

1 handgun, rifle, 2 shotguns, and 5 paintball guns.

What can I say, I'm southern.
 

beretta 9mm in my dresser drawer.
12 gadge upstairs, and my dad has a luger (one that was used by a german officer in WW2, all original parts and in near perfect condition.)

Going to the range tomorrow.

My dead grandpa has a friend that disassembled an anti-aircraft gun and mailed it part by part back to his house during WW2. He now has it in his garage.

Airsoft USP that will pose quite well as the real thing if an intruder decides to come to close.

I have a Ruger Single Six in .22/.22 magnum. It's accurate as heck and fun to shoot. I also have a double barrel 12 guage. I have gotten rid of most of my guns. Mosberg and Ithaca shotguns. Single shot and semi auto .22 rifles. Marlin 30/30 lever action, Ruger 9mm and a Remington model 94 in 30/30 that I wish I still had.
Wouldn't mind having this. Maybe I should get in on the secret santa?

I'll learn a little home gunsmithing and wind up with some bitchin' rifles in the bargain.

Standard or Metric kits? You are aware of the laws on them right? Number of US parts, etc.

Just making sure.

Tapco.com has a lot of tools/parts for FAL kits, as does Entreprise.com They are one of the bigger FAL sites out there.

And the Skoorb household got two votes! The rest of us have been disenfranchised :( :p

I'm buying one as soon as I turn 21. I figure that I'll get that and a CCW before they start taking those rights away from me. My best friend had me shoot a 38 special earlier this year and after that, I'm hooked. I figure what's the harm if I shoot off a couple rounds at the shooting range every week?

As long as you don't break into my house you won't get shot. :)
