WARNING: Stupid American Compensating For Small Penor ITT
Ok now that I have that out of the way, There was a gunshow recently in PA (This past Saturday @ the Farmshow Complex for those interested). I picked up a few new toys to try out at the range. Incoming pics of poor grouping and beat up 1911s :D
Starting off with a Henry US Survival AR-7 I picked up for 230$ NIB. Lovely little rifle, uses peep sights and completely disassembles and fits into a compartment in the buttstock.
Teh Bawx All folded up in the buttstock, tiny thing. less than 3lbs loaded Fully assembled, less than 2 feet long, nicely balanced.
con'td into next post for formatting reasons

Next up is a Spanish 1911 I picked up for about 200$ (almost questionably cheap). It is surprisingly accurate for the rough shape it is in. The rifling is strong and the bore is bright. It has some pretty bad wear marks on the slide lock and the safety. No grip safety like most 1911s. I won't post the range shots of my poor grouping because I used cheap factory reload ammo and tbh I suck with it.
Star 1911 Model PD: Worn Grips Blueing is worn but good mechanical condition Slide back, barrel is in very good condition for the amount of use it has seen

Now for the useless unnecessary **** I picked up for cheap for the luls. (inb4 guns are useless unnecessary **** :p)
Armor Piercing Incendiary rounds (7.62x54r)
YAY GRENADE LOL
The 7.62 is for the Mosin Nagant I picked up that I'm not posting until my real camera is back. The thing is gorgeous, unissued 1927 Tula Arsenal 91/30 Hex Reciever.
Accuracy at 100yards for the AR7 with varying Ammo. (Do not buy aguila ammo, **** is garbage, also AR7s like High Velocity .22lr)
Funny story about the big hole in the far side
We were about halfway done with our range time, and a couple of gangster-ish black dudes come up with 3 glocks (2 9mm and 1 40sw) and a pistol grip pump shotgun (mossberg). Not a single one had eye or hearing protection, and not a single one could hit the broadside of a barn. But they were good sports and commented "Thats a nice little sniper rifle." about the AR7.

Originally by: Alchemist Zemont Only because you are trying your best to get people to reply I can confirm I will be going to the states soon and I will make sure I buy a gun while I am there, my reasons will be because the voices in my head tell me 'they're' going to invade my home. The gun will make up for me having a small ***** and being bullied for being fat, I will so be cash with a gun while no one is around I will hold it and pretend to be James Bond
Well if you do, stay away from Wolf Ammo and Aguila ammo, unless you like dud rounds and misfeeds. :D
Also be sure to eat lots of mcdonalds, complain about the gubmint and draw welfare, its the american way amirite?

Because I know nothing about gun laws overseas, where are you from and what are the gun laws there? Also, can you import a weapon from the US legally then possess it?
If I recall correctly, US law prohibits importation of firearms unless the company has a US subsidiary. IE ImaginaryGunCo has a company it owns called USImaginaryArmsCo and it has factories for production on US soil.

Originally by: Thuranni Can someone please explain to me why on earth it is legal for a civilian to purchase armor piercing incendiary rounds? I can buy into the "I need guns for my protection" line, but what the hell? Do people regularly invade your home inside flammable tanks?
It was novelty. I will never use them, considering they are probably 30 years old.

on a side note... Humans are the only Species on Earth that Purposely kills for Fun/Sport. Something just doesn't seem right with that.
Where did I say I hunted? Who in their right mind would hunt with a 1911 or a .22? You seem to be more of a sheep than anyone with a gun atm.

Dude, I was there for a short time, if by Farm Show Complex you mean the Farm Show Complex in Harrisburg. I was looking for Grip pods, because I can't find a dealer with any in stock. http://www.grippod.com/
I was the scrawny 6' 5" guy with the equally long rifle on his shoulder. :D Good show.
Originally by: Kijo Rikki I'd like someone to give me an honest opinion: If the people ever decided the government has become too corrupt and attempted to rise up against it, who do you think would win? I'll give you my opinion first: It ain't gonna be us, not by a long shot. If the military stands behind the government each and every one of you are screwed.
Yeah we'd be boned, I realize the 2nd amendment is supposed to cover the "for the use with a well regulated militia", but I got them for more of a novelty. No different than paintball or airsoft except people tend to frown if you shoot people with real guns hehe.

Not how I imagined this thread would turn out, but I like it :D
My only target is paper, I wouldn't harm a fly. I'm a big softie.
Mosin Nagants and .22s don't make good "Home defense" weapons anyhow. I keep them locked up under my bed... :p
