Guns, Firearms, Boomsticks, etc.

I couldn't find if there was a previously existing firearms thread yet, so I apologize if there is. I have been shooting since I was a little squirt under my Dad's guidance, and am slowly acquiring my own for plinking pleasure and home defense.

So, today I stopped by my favorite gun shop in the area on the way back from a small reptile show (since it was like, five minutes away). I ended up leaving with a new firearm, a rifle. I have been toying with the idea to get one, and had some spare cash that I could get one with. Enter: The Kel Tec. Now, I know Kel Tec handguns tend to have a pretty poor reputation when it comes to reliability. But, I had heard of an intriguing little rifle called the Kel Tec Sub 2000. Its light weight, small size, and ability to fold up classifies it as a sub rifle. Even better, it uses glock magazines, even the 30 round magazine. I had also heard that it was a good rifle, fun for plinking and also suitable for home defense. I was thinking about getting a .22, but the power of a 9mm bullet was much more enticing.

Instead of coming home with a new critter, instead I came home with a new gun (which confused the housemates, since they knew I was going to a reptile show!). Of course, I had to play with it, clean it, figure out its quirks. My BP Yidhra modeled for me, such a star! And I realize how linty my bed sheet is, complete with white cat hair that really stands out in pictures! Also featured is my first gun and still my favorite, my Mossberg 500 Persuader, with a recoil reducing, adjustable stock.

Having shot one of those on a couple of occasions I can tell you that you came home with a very cool and fun gun. Check out the Kel-tec forums there are quite a bit of very cool accessories for it.

Very nice Mossberg as well!!
