If you are interested in the 5.7.....you should also take a look at the Ruger LC Carbine...also chambered in 5.7 Can't stress the importance of having a ranged weapon in the same caliber of your sidearm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm a proud gun owner but am all for common sense gun control, etc. I believe that anyone who purchases a gun should have to pass a field gun safety course and have range time with a certified instructor. There's too many idiots that went out and bought guns when the damn BLM riots were happening and everyone was screaming "Race War". Now we have millions of more weapons in the wrong untrained hands. My Father taught me gun safety as a very young man. Just like a father teaching his Son to use a chopsaw. So I was never afraid of or scared of guns, it was just another tool. More of that and less fear mongering would go a long way. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The majority of gun owners in this country are of the responsible type, so those people (including you and I) shouldn't have any issues with any safeguards that the government might implement in terms of purchasing or owning firearms. With sufficient safeguards in place, human massacres won't be happening with as much frequency as they are now. And no, gun legislation won't stop every mass shooting, but if even just ONE life is potentially saved by common sense measures, then it would be worth it. This crazy chit has got to stop, or at least be minimized. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This crazy chit has got to stop, or at least be minimized. Perfectly said. My kids aren't fascinated or obsessed with guns because they're not Taboo or mysterious to them. Hell, my daughter can field strip and clean anything you throw in front of her. They've both had numerous gun safety classes, have range time, etc. And guess what, they don't care. My Son won't even play a video game that has killing in it and my daughter couldn't care less. Why? Because it's not Taboo, it's just another tool. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As it is with many so-called "taboo" aspects of life, preventing people from exposure to things will ultimately lead to an in-appropriation and perversion of it. The key, (as with your kids), is to allow for a reasonable exposure, then let them decide the level of interest they have. This applies to just about anything, not just guns. Your son is essentially bored with them because he doesn't find them all that big a deal. But when you restrict people from things and behaviors, you wind up with a perverse and sometimes morbid curiosity that could lead to anti-social behavior.

He's made considerable progress this year, and he could wind up being near the same level as Parsons, but he's still got some learning to do. Still, I hope he finds his way to Hurts at least a few times tonight. Doesn't need to sack him, just rattle him if he can. Sure wish 56 in his prime could be out there for this one, that dude brought joy to my heart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hawkeye21 1,509 Posted January 24 I have a few 12 gauge shotguns, a .410 shotgun and a .22 rifle but at some point I'd like to get a higher powered rifle. Something that would be more effective on animals like deer. What are your favorite caliber rifles? I wouldn't mind a hand gun but don't care to have on in the house with my kids around yet.
