Favorite gun for Christmas?

[SiameseRat]

Hey, if I do say so myself, I'm a hell of a cook. I'd be more than happy to bake you a pie AFTER you let me shoot your new 10/22 rig up [lol] [lol]

 

[dwarven1]

Yeah it's always funny to come across guys like that. Thankfully I've found a really great group of guys who don't make me feel like I ought to be in the kitchen whipping up some pot pies...

Well, Kath's the one who's the Master (or is that Mistress?) Baker; she does wonderful deserts. But I've been coming along on the cooking pretty good, too. We both do some good cooking, I guess. At least, we never have guests going home hungry! [lol]

 

[kenc]

found mine last week a mint pre ban Galil ARM

 

[MidKnight]

S&W 1911

But it aint gonna happen any time soon.

 

[M1911]

Huh? Mine is on the same place on the Ruger MkII, the Makarov, and a Browning I used to use

Thumb-button mag release (like on the Kahr) is faster than a heel mag release. With a thumb button mag release, during a mag change your strong hand drops the mag while your support hand reaches for the spare mag. By the time the mag clears the mag well, your support hand already has the spare mag and is moving it towards the gun.

With a heel mag release, you have to use both hands to release the mag. As a result, your reload is slower.

Think of it this way: if a heel magazine release was faster, why don't IPSC shooters put it on their open class guns?

I don't really care about reload time. Hey, if I smoked, that would be a good chance for a butt break! It is not an issue here.

I don't really care about reload time.

For a carry gun, I really do care about reload time.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

...and a pistol that shoots...

 

[dwarven1]

Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk
Is the hope of Janice and Jen;

I don't know... I think our Jen wants a pistol that shoots, too!

 

[JonJ]

Ya know, I'd really be happy to have a MN 91/30 with accesories under the tree!

Okay...Okay, I got a little carried away, but I've been carrying this plastic around for so long. [twisted]

 

[Nickle]

Well, I must've done something right this year. Midway is now selling Reminton 700 Actions, so that 338 Lapua I'm going to build is going to be on a Remington, and it's going to cost me less.

That's close enough of a present for me.

 

[K-DUB]

I just received my early Christmas present (Sig 229), & couldn't justify leaving it under the tree for two weeks, so I promptly went to AFS & fed her 200 rounds.

 

[Marcus in the Darkus]

Here's what I'm hoping for:

The Glock 26 of Walthers...er...or something like that. I ordered a Milt Sparks VM2 holster for this bad boy a couple months ago so it should be here soon. At that point, I'm simply going to have to get the P99C.

You should always feed a new baby immediately. [lol] (I'm jealous too )

 

[Carguy]

Walther PPK-S...in 380 you don't have to be powerful, just good.

 

[TonyD]

Remmy 700 in .260 topped with a Loopy Vari X, 3X9.

 

[Jay G]

I'm having a hard time deciding what Santa's going to leave under the tree for me.

Should it be this:

or this:

Decisions, decisions... Do I want a genuine imitation mil-spec 1911, or something I can play with??? Hmmm...

 

[C-pher]

This will be my early present...

 

[Jay G]

Hmmm. That gun looks strangely familiar...

 

[Adam_MA]

Just this...

I don't think it's asking too much is it???

 

[JonJ]

I asked for a $69 MN 91/30. Barb slammed me down saying "You have enough rifles!" Totaly bummed me out.
Damn good thing she don't know about the Smith Corona 03A3! I hope it comes tomorrow so I can upack and hide it [twisted]
Merry Christmas to me!

 

[KMaurer]

Enough rifles! What a ridiculous idea. As a great man once said, "too much is never enough."

Ken

My thought, exactly!

 

[C-pher]

You can never have too many rifles.

That's like saying we don't need another faucet, we have enought water...

I still remember the wife saying, many years ago "No more guns until you get a cabinet or safe for them" (they were stored rather haphazardly).

Guess what she had the kids get me for Christmas that year? Yup, a gun safe.

That's a good woman there, Nickle. But I'm guessin' you already know that...
