I bought that marker for non-lethal defense as it hits hard with big rubberclad steel balls. And I did, much like you, opt for a mag-fed gun with seven balls which I can quickly replace with the second mag over a six shot revolver. Not that it replaces a real gun of course but I have other things if it comes to that.


Totally unrelated thought: Too bad I sold my excavator...

"Waaaaah," *sniff, sniff*

The little yellow 'Cavator!

In rifle related news:
I might hold off getting a drum mag for now, it's spring time and I need to get flea and tick collars for my dogs. Besides I have 3 mags for a total of 70 rounds of AR-15 goodness so we good . Speaking of which I might buy another 30 round mag just to even out, two small and two large mags...Symmetry people, symmetry lol!

New gun!!


My second purchase this year - the CO2-powered Beretta M92A1! First impression; Crikey!


Elaboration: Really heavy gun, this thing does NOT feel like a toy. One could easily mistake it for a real gun based only on the weight. Everything is metal apart from the grip and the slide is heavy, including the spring. Blowback should make a good kick for sure. And it's not just for show; just like with a real gun when the slide cycles it chambers a new round and cocks the hammer, allowing for true single action. This gun is also double action for the first shot if one so chooses.


Got some more CO2 cartridges and 3000 steel BBs at the same time and together with the TIPX I have summer occupation done!

Wow, that looks just like the real thing.

Yeah, it's fully licensed by Beretta via Umarex so it has all the markings it should have, I believe. Again, the weight of this thing is impressive!

One thing of note; it's supposed to have a full-auto option but that has been removed in my country. Would have been fun but semi-auto is the way to go anyway so I don't miss it


You have a real one of these, Sub?

No, I don't have any pistols. I prefer rifles. Pistols tend to have a high pitched sound when they fire that I don't like. Rifles have a deeper bass sound. While louder, they aren't are piercing.

Someone hasn't shot a .22 LR


Seriously, I'd rather fire my .30-06 without muffs than my .22LR. It's like a whip! Especially painful in an enclosed area like when we trained for hog hunting. We went into a small shed of sorts and no one but me had earplugs

Those are the nice high dollar CO2 pistols. Those things are amazing on how real they look and feel.

Indeed. This one was one of the most expensive pistols they had. I'm still not 100% sure they didn't send me a real one


Over the past few years I've sold four old airguns and now gotten two new ones I really am fond of so I'm happy

My Brother in Law showed me one that Japan sells that uses a special type of compressed gas to fire but the whole thing looks so much like the real thing, I bet an expert gunsmith could strip it and turn it into a proper functioning firearm.

Speaking of firearms I'm thinking about getting a .357 Magnum for carrying around, either that or a .40 Cal. Depends which one I can find cheap.

Can't go wrong with a .357 Magnum!


In the meantime, why not CC that nerf minigun?

Hmmmm.

What's this? It's the end of the month and I still have my Xbox One X and AR-15 with the three magazines. What universe am I in and how did I get here ?

I don't know, but if you wanna get rid of that pesky AR-15 you know where to send it

But I love my AR-15 with the $20.00 RDS sight on it . Seriously I bought this holographic RDS sight with a dot style selector on it and it only cost me $20.00 bucks on Amazon where other RDS sights are in the triple digit range. I know you get what you pay for but this scope is pretty solid. I still need to take my rifle to the range one of these days, I just haven't had the time or money.

Beginning to learn how to field strip that Beretta. More of a pain than I thought it's be and it involves the magazine somehow. Not that I need to do it, I just want to because it's possible

Well...looks like I won't be shopping at my local gun store anymore. For some reason they refused to do business with me and my Dad so it looks like I'll be getting any new guns at either Academy or another Gun Store I go to.

Damn Reaps, that sucks! Did they say why? Not that I’m asking you to post that, it’s really not any of our business, but I just wonder if they gave you any indication as to why they are refusing service.

That's weird. Haven't you been quite a good customer to them?
