Hello Ladies and Gents,
I am new here and I am happy to be here. I have been lurking for a couple of weeks. This is an awesome site. I am in my 30's and familar with weapons of all kinds, but I never owned my own until now.
So basically I wanted to ask for some opinions before I get my first rifle. I already own a 9mm. (Cheap little thing). That I bought at a gun show last fall. Shot it once and put it in the closet because it's crap. What a shame.
Anyways, There is another gun show coming to town on labor day weekend and I want to get ready for it. First off cost is important. I think I will able to spend about $500 or so. Hahaha. I know, not much.
I have looked around and I think I want something that has some history to it. Like the M1 garand, and the 1903 springfield. Which one would you all recomend? Also what should I look out for at the gun show? I do not want to get ripped off. Thanks in advance.
