 |

I don't hunt, but do a lot of target shooting when I can get the time.
I mostly shoot this bad boy:
The one I've got is actually a chinese knockoff M44. Soviet Carbine that shoots massive rounds. Half the fun is people stopping and looking when I touch it off.
And the crown jewel of my albeit small collection is this:
(Again, this picture is not mine)It's a 6.5x54MS Mannlicher-Shonauer Carbine. Unlike the pictures, mine features the "scare the hell outta you" set trigger. When I can find the ammo for it, it's really a joy to shoot. Just acquired a whole bunch of brass for it and am looking forward to handloading! These things are so strange, but beautiful, take a look at the magazine:
So, whatcha got!? |

Nice collection!!
So far all I own is a Sig Sauer P239 9mm and a Winchester 1000xs .177 high velocity air rifle (varmint gun). I am planning on getting a .308 rifle at some point this year or early next year.
P239
1000xs

The Sig and Winchester are both excellent. Ive been wrestling with getting a Sig P220 or another 1911. I bought a high power pellet gun recently myself. I havent tried it yet though.
FWIW, anyone considering purchasing a gun now may be the time. Folks in the industry are expecting another big run on guns,ammo and reloading supplies as the November elections draw near. They are expecting shortages and price gouging equal to that of the elections 2 years ago.
Of course the gun market had just begun to return to normal. |

I love the Sig. It takes a beating and just keeps going. It shoots like a dream and I've never had problems cycling rounds through it. The hogue grips are key too IMO.
The Winchester is a fun one. I didn't realize how powerful it was until I shot an annoying chipmunk with it. Let's just say the power was made for larger animals than chipmunks  |
