Have you seen the videos on YouTube of the guy shooting 600 Nitro Express rounds?

The ear moulds for my hearing aids work better than ear plugs I have used in the past. My audiologist said it was fine as long as the aids are turned off.

Shooting is a great way to relax and have fun as well as a good work out. I am on my way to becoming a weapon specialist. We have 10 guns right now. A few rifles, pistols and a shotgun. Hoping for our AK's this year and my micro eagle. We Like the unique stuff and the old stuff. NOT an AR fan whatsoever. Shooters once every other month or more. We are mountain shooters not really range shooters. Target shooting only, NO hunting. Gotta love it

I am kind of interested in one of those Russian or Czech 9x18 auto pistols they have for sale as military surplus. Even the Mokarov revolvers are cool! They are supposed to be well made and fairly accurate. The pistols and the ammo are both inexpensive. I like old military stuff!

Russian firearms are the top of my list. We have a makarov 9x18! Best pistol EVER. AKs are next

Definitly go with Russia

I'm an avid shooter. I'm also a strong advocate for the Second Amendment and National Right to Carry.

This week I am getting a Ruger Blackhawk .357 mag

I want to start a collection of Ruger Vaqueros at some point - but it will have to wait until after I get a LeMat.

I'm a big collector of Bersa handguns for self-defense, but have a great variety of long guns.

You could never go wrong with a Ruger Blackhawk .357! One tuff gun!

Since only about 3,000 were manufactured, how hard are they to come by?

The reproductions are not hard to get - they are just expensive.

My grandmother:

She grew up on a farm in Indiana. She used to go hunting with her dad and was the best shot in her town. Her father would let her join in other families hunting parties because whatever she aimed at was a meal for that family.

P.S. She hurt her thumb cutting carrots.

She is 86 and still paints her own house (climbs ladders too). We have tried to tell her to stop. She won't listen.

Easier to bring ear muffs or plugs than to argue with those stupid people.

**Foxrac** · 04-29-2012, 01:53 AM

ear plugs are pointless for me because I'm fully deaf.

That's what I thought, too, until I realized that the pressure itself causes painful damage to ear drums. Very, very few people are deaf due to defective ear drums, therefore, ear protection is still recommended.

airportcop · 04-30-2012, 01:45 PM

Just helped one of my co-workers break in his new Kahr .380 with night sights. Very sweet piece that seems accurate, small and not bad on recoil. But very expensive!!! ($600+) We fired 100 rounds through it in about 10-15 minutes!

**Reba** · 04-30-2012, 02:28 PM

The only practice I've been getting lately is my daily session of airsoft pistol against squirrels on bird feeder. Grrrrrr!

airportcop · 04-30-2012, 09:15 PM

I think that I need to stay in this thread or forum section as it seems much safer in here and less drama going on. The flamethrowers are hot in the political, war, & current events threads!

Steinhauer · 04-30-2012, 09:22 PM

Let's see if this video works

:

In the HD video I have on my computer, it is far more clearer and you can see an awesome muzzleflash the first three rounds of the .357 mag - I haven't been able to get a still shot of it yet

airportcop · 04-30-2012, 09:33 PM

Yee Haw!!! Look at the recoil on the Blackhawk!!!!! Oh my goodness!!! Wow!!!
