I have had guns for about fifteen years due to us having a plot of land on which to hunt for moose and deer. However I have always had a bigger interest in the shooting part than the hunting part, and since I came across hickok45 on youtube that interest has gotten new life.

I just love how he does it. Instead of only shooting moose paper targets like we do here, he shoots at flower pots, car doors, metal figures and 2 liter soda cans etc. I quickly realized that's what I want to do too though unfortunately I have limited abilities since our plot of land is shaped the way it is which is quite narrow with neighbours not too far away. But I did put up a few brick targets earlier this fall and had a go on them with my .30-06 semi-auto, and it really was such a fun way of shooting! Though needless to say, that round is pretty expensive and I may go look for a smaller caliber in the near future.

This is one instance where I kinda wish I was a Murican. Our views on guns here is they should only be used on paper targets or clay pigeons and for hunting and it should only be done to better ourselves. Just having fun like this or defend ourselves simply doesn't exist here which is a shame. But I'll do my part to change that... biggrin.gif

So if kiln anyone would like to chime in on the subject of shooting for fun, please do!

The other one is only $75 more, a small amount when you are already talking hundreds. It will take you a little longer to get it if you do your usual layaway method, but you will have the gun you want when you do get it! Be patient and go with the long handle is Khajiit’s advice.


Academy doesn't have a layaway, I'll have to buy it outright. I might get the 475.00 one as I like how the grip fits my hand.

Well they certainly did make one, our fine feathered friend!

Whether you can buy one or not, well, that might be the trick.

Huh---I didn't know they made those types of guns back in the day. You learn something new everyday.

Really an interesting firearm with its shotgun feature, not to mention its nine regular revolving chambers. Once I get a gazillion on my bank account I might import a LeMat biggrin.gif

Thanks---its going to be tough figuring out if I want the Taurus Judge, .44 Magnum or AR-15. Well we'll see what I get the 1st.

Not sure if a Judge is a boomstick or boomwand, either way once I get it I'm keeping it.

I know that's been my FLW (famous last words) when I bought a new firearm but sometimes life gets in the way. However my finances have stabled a bit more so hopefully I won't have to sell things anymore.

Love that image, but I wonder how SubRosa managed to get a pic of Reaper? bigsmile.gif


Nice grouping, as has been stated. Wish we had indoor ranges here too.
