Easy decision. Do you have one?

If not: you need one.


I've got a python that's never been fired... belonged to my father... it's very tempting to go play with but I just can't do it.. so I need somethin similar I won't feel bad about playing with... Mellow

I know virtually nothing about the various gun models. Why would you own one and never shoot it? Is it a collection piece?

To me it is... Dad chose not to fire it.. not sure what his intentions were but it's worth a lot more not being fired... Mellow

I've got a Glock 43 and a Beretta M9 and I haven't shot a round through either one of them, yet.

Not against it... just not a lot of places to do so on the cheap.

Built an upper for father in law's birthday and Christmas gifts. He got a lower for father's day, gonna get a barreled assembly for his birthday, and the rest for Christmas.

I initially was going to do an A1 build fixed stock Vietnam era build, but the lower I was able to get my hands on already had a multi position stock on it and that determined the rest. Went M4 style with carry handle and adjustable sights I think M4A1? I dunno all the intricacies. Got a 16" barrel, non-railed handguard, picatinny receiver rail, bayonet lug, and a birdcage muzzle brake. Looks damn good.


Weird set up for a sex swing.

I had a blued Python for a while.

It didn't have a turn ring on the cylinder, so I never shot it either. Paid $400, sold for $1200. Looks like they're going for a lot more now.

Wanted to feel the famous Colt trigger so I bought a King Cobra when one popped up for $800 nearby. It was nice, but I've got a Ruger GP100 I've done some home gunsmith work to the trigger along with a spring pack, and I like my Ruger more. Resold the Cobra, took a Colt Trooper as part trade, and since that was worth a lot less, I shot it a lot more. But I just sold it last spring.

No public land out in the hills?

There's two spots within 100 miles of my house, just open public land for recreational use. There's streams and ponds to fish, there's a big hill at both you can shoot at, and can hunt the areas during hunting seasons.

I just finished reading a very interesting book about submarine spying on the USSR during the Cold War, Blind Man's Bluff. It covers the tapping of USSR underwater communications cables, deep sea recovery of their technology, including a submarine using the Global Explorer built by Howard Hughes. It also includes profiles of the people that manned the submarines and what their lives were like.

One of the guys I worked with at Colt's bought a python and had some (discount) custom engraving done on it. Nice looking gun when done.

Public land? In California that's called a homeless encampment...

Truck's loaded up with a few guns, targets, eyes and ears.

It's my younger brother in law's first time shooting, and he just bought an AK variant so first time that's getting run too.

Leaving in 20 minutes.

No no no, you have to learn the foundations to which the lower level spells are based, but I still think it works best if you read them with a handful of some sticky kush and in arbitrary order.
