Sidetrack all you want. You guys all added some good information and opinions, I’m eager to get out and shoot now and settle in on a new shotgun. I got busy with life, working a lot and bought my first home. This year made 2 years in and I sold that and just moved to a place with some property...
Well fellas, I appreciate all the opinions/advice. Just what I was looking for. Good to know that there are some slight and differing advantages to each. It does sound though, like this will become addicting like any excuse to get out and shoot end up being and I’ll probably end up doing it a...
That sounds like it for sure. It seems that a lot of it is more preferance than anything. I just didn’t want to go the wrong direction on one if there were a lot of specific reasons to get one vs the other. I’ll try to maybe shoot at least one auto and one O/U and then maybe look at and shoulder...
That’s what I was kind of getting at about toting around anloaded gun. Somewhere capacity and reloading was mentioned, but I don’t see it as an issue because you’re not carrying it around loaded. You load what you shoot and that’s it. So semi or O/U you’re reloading at the same interval anyways...
So what I’m gathering is if I don’t want to dish out 2k+ go with an auto? So unless I want to have a larger capacity or save some $ the O/U may be the way to go. The capacity doesn’t seem like an issue because if you shoot sportig clays and shoot doubles you make two shots then move on, no? So...
I appreciate the feedback I’m getting. It’s a little mixed and sounds like there’s some personal preference involved and maybe not a for sure style of gun to get. (Auto or O/U) Would it make sense to buy one then maybe get another down the rd if I stick with it, or would there be an advantage to...
I guess maybe I’m using this as a partial excuse to shop for a new gun. garandsrus I’d imagine you’re right that my pump would be adequate. It’s a 28” browning BPS and I do really like that shotgun. There’s just something about walnut and high gloss bluing! Is there a reason you suggest 20ga...
Its been quite some time since I’ve posted on here. Life gets busy but I’m glad to be back researching guns again! This time I’m looking for information on shotguns and sporting clays. The only shotguns I currently have are pumps. We used to shoot a lot of clays in the backyard which we haven’t...
My uncle had bought a Lorcin 380 for $50,realized it was straight garbage. Then sold it to his friend for $50. His friend just wanted something and knew it was a piece of junk. Then his friend traded it in at a LGS on a ruger LCP and they gave him $60 for it. He was surprised to have gotten that...
You say purchase as an investment. I understand the prices are going up and the supplies aren't what they used to be. When I see people purchasing large numbers of guns and saying they are investments it kind of bothers me. I just turned 18 and would really like to purchase an M1 garand but...
Alright. Thanks everyone. If someone else has some input I'd still be glad to hear it. I just wanted to make sure that's fair to both of us. I'm not the kind to try to have people give stuff away. I like for both seller and buyer to do alright. $75 isn't giving the thing away but yet it's still...
I have a springfield 1898 krag that someone sporterized way back. That has to be one of the nicest guns as far as function in my collection. The trigger is so smooth light and crisp. The bolts is like butter. Only problem I have is that 30-40 krag is seasonal ammo and can be hard to find at...
I don't want to spend a fortune that's why I said $75. Does that sound fair for both of us? I'm not robbing him blind yet I'm still getting a good deal?
A friend of mine has a Remington 34 .22 he is looking to possibly sell to me. I told him I was looking for a bolt action .22 with open sights. He said he would probably sell it to me. We're friends so he said he doesn't want to rip me off. I don't expect him to give it away either. Though the...
Thanks for clearing that up for me Fishbed77.
I went to a local gun store tonight and it wasn't so busy and I got waited on and they had a P99 on the back with the AS trigger but I didn't like it. The pu is way to long for me. I loved the way the gun felt but I don't like that real long pull...
I've contacted all the gun stores locally and nobody has any P99's. The one guy says the only thing he can get me is a PPQ. Gander said they can only special order me a 40 in a QA. I don't know why they are so hard to get. I looked online and buds gun shop is out of stock. Are theses highly...
I'm still curious to hear what others have to say. I'd like to compare them but I can't find anyone that has a P99. So I guess the thing to do is just go look at the one this guy has and decide. Is there another walther pistol that has the AS trigger that I could go look at and compare to the QA?
