    If the Germans have no problem with ARs then why do our Antis

    Some Politicians proposed a law which would force shooters to leave their guns at the shooting club. Fortunately this legislation never passed. You have to keep them in a certified gun safe but they can be at your home.

    If the Germans have no problem with ARs then why do our Antis

    To buy any kind of firearm in Germany you have to be the member of a shooting club for 1 year and pass a test or get your hunting license (which is rather complicated and expensive). But once you have accomplished that you can buy almost anything you like, as long as it's not full auto. This...

    do you name your guns?

    Normally I do not name my guns. But there is one exception: I have an old German K98 ZF41 named Betty:D.

    My girlfriend is going to kill me...

    Although I also wouldn't change myself or my hobbies to please a woman and I really can not recommend doing that I would remind you all: He did ask about an Enfield not about marriage advice :D. About the rifle. If the bore is in good condition it should shoot well. And yes, it is worth...

    Backpacking gun, .308 or heavier?

    Did you consider a .223 Pistol? Very concealable, in a rifle caliber and very effective if you are not shooting at 300 yards. Not as much power as the .308 but you can use 30 shot AR mags.

    Use by date on ammo?

    I was able to set off primers of cartridges which were manufactured in the 1930s and put in a lake long ago. After some drying up even the powder did burn. It was amazing, I really did not expect that. I would assume that well stored ammo can last literally forever but surely much longer than...

    What do you guys think about this?

    Since i had to deal with school mates who didn't know what a spear is, that really does not surprise me. I was about 18 at that time, like my mates.

    Durabilty CZ75b with +p

    I would like to ask, if the CZ75b will eat +p ammo without reducing the max. ammo count you can put through the gun. Is there any official data? Would it eat +p+ also? Not to get confused, we are talking about the 9mm Para variant. Thank you for your answers.

    Why would one choose 8 pellet 00 over 9 pellet?

    You should also consider the kind of shotgun used. I have shot two different o/u shotguns of very similar construction. The first had a noticeable but pleasant recoil even with heavier loads. The second punched like hell even with very light loads. So buy a good gun and you dont...

    Self Defense Over Kill?

    I would say that you can use everything for self defense that fires a bullet with sufficient energy. Of course you could use .500 S&W Revolver or a 50 BMG rifle for self defense. But I would much prefer a 9mm, .357 or .45 over a .500 S&W simply because they are much cheaper, have a...

    My local gunshop owner is some kind of evil genius!!

    It does sound like he really knows how to get you :D. And it is good to hear there are people, who are just as crazy as me :D.

    2 Handguns needed - reliable, durable, cheap to shoot

    I think that a CZ75 plus .22lr kit and a Ruger GP100 in Stainless with six inch barrel are a good choice. Thank everybody for the good answers.

    2 Handguns needed - reliable, durable, cheap to shoot

    I think, I will get the CZ75B in Stainless with Kadet kit. What will be the second gun? Good question. What do you think about the Ruger Gp100?

    Compromise with the Anti bloc?

    Compromise is the wrong way. The gun haters do not have an interest in public safety and the general good of the people. If this would be the case, they wouldn't try to ban guns in general. If you compromise, you'll lose. Here in Germany we don't have a strong gun lobby like the NRA. As a...

    2 Handguns needed - reliable, durable, cheap to shoot

    When I have the (annoying) paperwork done, I will buy them very probably in the Internet or maybe from a local arms dealer. The German army uses the H&K P8, it is a slightly modified H&K USP. I personally do not like the Sig P226, it just looks ugly in my opinion. The normal CZ75...

    2 Handguns needed - reliable, durable, cheap to shoot

    I like the idea of a pistol plus .22lr conversion kit and as second a .357 magnum revolver (.44 mag and .500 S&W are way overpowered and very expensive). Which revolver would you recommend (stainless of course)?

    Opinion on Remington .22 Target ammo

    This looks very nice. I think I will buy it. Thanks. BTW: What would be the largest game you could hunt with that cartridge?

    2 Handguns needed - reliable, durable, cheap to shoot

    A .22 conversion kit would not count as separate weapon, so it would be a good idea. I like polymer framed pistols for their strength and light weight but since I am forbidden to carry the gun around and just need it for target shooting and home defense that really doesn't matter to me. And I...

    2 Handguns needed - reliable, durable, cheap to shoot

    Hello everyone. I am from Germany and have a limit of two handguns I am allowed to buy, so I need to choose wisely which one I should take. One gun should be in .22 for accuracy training and plinking, maybe a .22 revolver. The other gun should be in 9mm Luger, preferrably with high...

    Opinion on Remington .22 Target ammo

    The ammo of SK Schönebeck is readily avalaible here. It is indeed well made German ammo. But it is relatively expensive and since I am an beginner in shooting handguns I won't shoot as good as my gun and ammo would make possible. I think that I will stick to CCI SV as target ammo...
