There's only one that I want. It's a .45 Luger which was only made around 1910-15. This is the luger that every luger collector is after! This Luger would of course never be fired, just polished and layed ever so carefully on a satin pillow :)

i recently inherited a ruger mini 14. it's kind of weird because i've used smaller-caliber rifles before but nothing like this. and it's been about five years since i last fired a gun.

i'm looking forward to trying it out, as it came with 3 pre-ban 30 round clips and enough .223 rounds to last a while. it even has a decent scope.

Rugers are nice riffles to have and not overpriced like alot of other makers. I thought about getting one my self. I might wait for deer season.

Yawp, the SAW was probably one of the better things I shot in the Army...not to say that the Anti-Tank weapon wasn't fun either though... :D

How can you tell if you like a gun if you don't shoot it? It's like buying a book and not reading it...

well, i only have 1 other gun in my collection, a ruger 10/.22 with a 5 round clip. so the choice is pretty easy despite having not fired the mini-14.

a Goontan Energy ball sling shot :p

accually probably a Berretta .50 Sniper rifle, or a heli chain gun, or a 20mm for ground troops, too many choices, accually I'd build my own .50 caliber chain gun with 50 tubes so it can shoot fast and still recover from the recoil! :)

Appears as if there is mucho penis envy on this forum. Little men and big guns, always a dangerous combination.
