I love 'em :bigsmile: Any other gun nuts out there? I personally have an affinity towards .22s and handguns in general, though I'm getting my own lefty AR for Christmas probably :D I'm right hand dominant, but I'm left eye dominant so I shoot lefty. I don't technically own any handguns, being under 21 and all, but I have a Ruger single six, all black, and it's a .22. I do love the thing. I also do intend to get my CCP when I'm of age. My boyfriend owns somewhere between 25 and 30. Some of his favorites are his MSAR STG-556, Luger, and his VZ-61. If you're the same, what guns do you own? Do you carry?

    Being in Canada I definitely don't carry any handguns :( but eventually I do want to get a Desert Eagle 50 Cal. So for the mean time I enjoy skeet shooting and anything else with a rifle!

    I have a few. I own a Ruger P95, and a H&R Pardner 12 Ga., as well as a Mosin Nagant M91/38.

    All I have so far.

    I'm also right handed, and left-eye dominant... but I don't think I can shoot left handed.

    Shooting at a shooting range or out at the ranch is exhilarating.

    As long as they keep them out of my schools, I'm okay with whatever.

    My mother in law took my wife to get her FOID card when she turned 18, though my wife won't allow guns in the house :ohwell: I've always been a rifle (sniper) guy myself, longer the range the better.
  • I don't necessary Love guns, but I own several for protection, I have a Concealed Handgun License , I always carry my lady S&W 38 with me. I just ordered a Benelli’s SuperNova Tactical 12 gage shotgun for better home protection.

    Do you have children or does she just have a thing about it? And I'm a damn good shot with handguns, but I'll be damned if I'm any good with long guns lol

    I have a Browning BAR in 30.06, an old Winchester 1400 in 12G, A Marlin Model 60 and a custom built Ruger 10-22 for my .22s. My only handgun is a S&W Model 586 in .357 with a 6inch barrel. Love them all for what they are, but would love to add to them. Shooting is a joy.

    I love guns, have even shot a few, but living in Cali, the laws are a wee bit strict there.... Now that we've moved, we're def considering investing in a few. I myself prefer handguns of the 9mm semiauto variety but feel i haven't shot enough to have an idea as to which one i would like to get. I also like the shotgun, hehe.

    Nice little collection there. Though we own a great deal of guns, most are rifles and shotguns, and I haven't had the chance to shoot most of them. I did shoot my boyfriend's AR 15 though, and I love the thing, only thing I didn't like was that, well, it wasn't made for a lefty shooter! lol

    I have several:
    M&P 9mm compact, Glock 19 9mm, Magnum Research Baby Eagle .40 cal, Springfield XD40 & XD45, a semi-auto and pump 12 gauge shotguns, an AR15, and a semi-auto .22 rifle.

    Although I am licensed to "carry" (which we no longer require in AZ), I don't carry where I live. I live in the country, but when I roam into the big city I might load up my M&P9c just in case.

    Haha, sure it counts! lol I used to own a few myself, I loved paintball. Got a little too expensive though.
