Almost forgot.......

Fired Uncle Joe's S&W Distinguished Combat Magnum. (.357)

Flames shoot out of the cylinder and it punches holes in 55 gal barrels.

Fired it ONCE without hearing protection. Had a headache for an hour.







WHAT? HUH? I CAN'T HEAR YOU!

Marlin model 60 semi-auto .22 LR (when I'm not using CCI ammo which jams every third round).

My Winchester model 70 .30-06 (sounds like a cannon, but when she's dialed in she's lethal)

Nefari's AK-47's (now I gots to get my own)

I'm sure my 1922 Mosin-Nagant will be on the list once the weather gets better. I haven't even fired it yet.

I love to shoot my Garand.  I've got a lot of guns including autos, but that is my absolute favorite and goes with me to the range every time I go.  My favorite non gun to shoot was the Javelin...  just wow.

M1 Garand took me by surprize, for being used to shotguns I thought it would kick. Or be noisy. But it wasn't.
My fav is still my 12 gauge USSR Baical, single barrel. Makes a kaboom, kicks like a mule, and with proper ammo it will kill a soaring seagull who thinks it is out of range. muhahahaha.
It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)

I would like to raise you:
 


:p

Russian M44. Props goes to Tupac for getting me hooked on his. The fireball, the sound, and the shockwave were so amazing, I decided I HAD to get one of my own. Two days later I stumbled on one at a gun show... and there she is! Definitely a favorite of mine because it gets EVERYONE'S attention at the range. They hear that crack and have to stop what they're doing and come over to ask about her. And because I own her.

Second is gonna be the SKS. Mostly because she's also mine.

Third goes to an M2 .50 for obvious reasons.

I had a real sweet SKS but the AK's I had were better guns, same exact round but the SKS just couldnt let out the rounds as good, I had two 75 round drums for the AK's, hehe what a blast.

I have fired a lot of firearms and I have to say that my newly purchased CVA Silver Trophy Hunter III is the most fun yet! I spent hours at the range Thursday firing this rifle. It is dead on balls acurate @ 250 yards.

The only problem at first was the actual firing of the rifle. You see it's a flintlock. I have a brown bess and you have to close one eye when firing that rifle because of the pan flash. With this CVA it directs the flash away from you. The rifle has a one second delay in actual firing time.

This rifle presents quite a challenge when hunting deer for the reaction time from pan flash to bullet exiting barrel makes for difficult shooting when the deer moves. I like a challenge though, Unlike some of these folks shooting deer with high powered rifles from 40 yards away, and they are 25 yards away from the 4X4 quad runner that brought them there.

A yappy back seater like Jester wasn’t popular or fun to fly with, more of an unnecessary distraction than anything else---Puma44

I've got a Yugo SKS and I'm looking at getting an AK47 as a next gun. What type of SKS and AK did you use?

This is classed as a firearm in England so I think it counts.

Much Fun!
