Went to the woods yesterday with some friends, 4 of them had never shot before and I was one of the only two with guns. But I let em try em all out and after target practice. we dispersed them and went for a hike. It was alot of fun, good exercise too in the 102 degree Alabama sun. They all enjoyed it too including the women, so I think it was a win, should do it again soon.
So that and that Crude weapons thread got me thinking, I want some cheap, worn, Single shots, perhaps double barreled, but semi auto can be kinda boring sometimes,(anyone else get that feeling?) So as I was saying, something cheap, crude, maybe abused, something with character, shotgun or rifle with available and affordable ammunition. Because shooting at random stuff/wasting ammo can be entertaining sometimes eh?
Problem is all my LGS's only have nice weapons or surplus Mosins. I was just wondering where to get such weapons, I mean I see some on Gunbroker, but the whole internet process seems rather complex. Anyone know where to get em locally, is it just a hit or miss, check every store/pawn.
Also, anyone have suggestions for fun guns, with a manual action, that can be had for under $200?
And/or
What are the general opinions on bolt action shotguns, bolt action handguns? How come no one uses 16 ga anymore but the weapons are fairly cheap?
