(Vanity Post) What gun should I buy?

Posted on 11/06/2008 9:46:44 AM PST by 2nd Amendment

I know this is a vanity post. But I wonder if fellow freepers can help me make a decision. I traditionally buy a new firearm after a democrat victory. In the past I have bought hunting rifles and revolvers. Now I feel the need to purchase a different type of firearm and I covet freeper input. My guidelines are as follows. 1. caliber .223-.260 2. must be semiautomatic. 3. Must be able to defend against groups of foraging liberals, desperate for a handout. 4. Must be able to handle attacks from drug-crazed intercity refugees. 5. Ammo must be easily procured by bartering with silver and gold coins. thank you for any input!

go with one of these. Easy maintenance, never jams, and will trim your trees in about 10 seconds. If you have a squirrel problem, it will take care of that too!

Ditto. And plenty of ammo before The One requires microstamping and new ammo taxes.

He intends to regulate 2A into oblivion.

Wondering too. Same here about buying after a RAT victory.

Sun. Bro-in-law and I are going to a show to get our CCW permit and to stock up. I just need ammo, but he wants to buy something compact. My Makarov (looks like a PPK) is pretty small.

SKS

Compact.
Accurate.
Cheap.
Trouble-free.
Lots of cheap ammo.
Target shoot to your heart’s content.
Rapid-fire - as fast as you can pull the trigger.

Buy a Ruger GP-10 .357 Magnum Revolver loaded with hollow points for home defense. There is nothing on that gun that will prevent it from firing. No ‘chambering a round’ no safety... nothing. If you pull the trigger and the hammer drops on a round in the cylinder, the gun WILL fire.

Load it with .38’s to teach the little lady how to shoot it.

Easy to learn. Easy to use.

The K.I.S.S. principle is fundamental to home defense.

I as talking to a friend of mine about this same issue. He was asking our local gun dealer what hand gun to buy and he said “Absolutely the best hand gun in the world to buy is the one you will always carry and not leave at home or in the car.”....He ended up buying a Beretta Tomcat..... weighs about a lb. and fits into his pocket.....

Worst case scenario, (I don’t think we’ll get there.. but just in case), I would go with something that uses the 5.56x45mm NATO. This way, if manufacturing of ammunition in the US is cut off, it is a standard & common size made around the world. It is also a good round for reloads.

Mossberg 500 12Ga. comes with pistol grip in the box. Rugged Mil-spec.

.45 acp handgun, ammo a plenty everywhere just as the 12 Ga.

.223 AR-15 or Ruger mini-14 ranch rifle.

.308 Remington 500 or similar for long range.

Taurus Judge also, uses .45 acp, .45 colt AND .410 ! 410 buckshot up close means you can`t miss as one could with a single bullet.

Just make sure you clean it after the range.

I shot an AR in highpower competition. Get a foreign-made AK-47, the AR stovepipes too easily.

As well as buying a new gun, you may also need to rewatch “Day of the Dead”, “Resident Evil” and other zombie movies. In a true Obamaclypse you will need not only firearms, but a chainsaw and a fire-axe. And don’t let them bite you!

There are US made AK-47’s in 5.56. Not super accurate but the ammo is available. I’d personally get a Beretta semi-auto shotgun...but I don’t own any guns, they’re way too scary, especially the black ones.
