I love guns! I have a custom Ar15, custom bullpup .22, 20 Guage shotgun that is nothing special, and a XDm 40 that I carry with me everywhere I go. My wife has a Kahr 380 and a Beretta nano 9 that she alternates carrying.

Another stress releiver I have aside from my tank is I reload all of my own ammo, with the exception of the .22 of course. For that I have a single stage Lee press and a dillon 550.

My next gun buy is defiantly going to be that PX4, love that gun! And I am hoping to get a safe for Xmas.

My AR-15. Built this piece by piece. It was a fun project.


This is my bullpup .22. I also custom built this but it was much easier then the AR. I got the bullpup kit from Red Jacket Firearms and pretty much only had to pick up a barrel and trigger group from there. Slap it all together and you have a sharp looking 22.


My XDm 40. Nothing to crazy about this gun but I love it. Carries well and shoots great.


This is from the last time a buddy and I went shooting. We shot the heck out of some targets we set up. FYI bowling pins are great targets, they really hold up to the abuse.

very nice!


when everyone carries where do you keep it? just a holster? behind your back?

just curious what people feel is comfortable

As a long time shooter, hunter and lover of firearms, I am thrilled to know we have so many well defended reefs in our little group. Given present political environment and the current trend for long term data storage makes me question this kind of show and tell. Nice gear folks.

...which is why, unfortunately, I choose not to play right now. Big up's for you all though.

I had a few, but here are a couple that I had to recently let go do to "budgetary cutbacks"

DPMS 3G1 3Gun rifle:

Mossberg 930 JM Pro 12g:

FN-SLP MK1 12g:

STI Trojan 5.0 in factory hard chrome:

Tactical Solutions X-Ring in poly thumbhole stock:

Ruger MKII Volquarzten'ed out for bullseye:

Already sold all of the above, and whatever I had left was unfortunately lost in a boating accident.

This is how I carry mine. It's a crossbreed super tuck.

 

[Dan1789]

Wow Ward I want that bullpup 22, how much?

 

[Ward9320]

All together it cost around &$600 but it prolly could have been cheaper if I didn't get a fluted barrel for it

 

[Fatmike92]

ha ya that bull pup would be sweet to shoot

 

[Dan1789]

Great ill send you $600 and you send me the gun :)

 

[Ward9320]

Yea, it is very comfortable to hold and shoot. I like it a lot but I still need to tweak the trigger a bit. I have gotten several offers from people to buy it but I will never let go of it. I'm in the hobby of getting more guns not getting rid of them

very sharp looking....do they make these stocks for anything but the Ruger 10/22 ?

 

[aceer15]

Are any of these reef safe?? ;)

 

[KoleTang]

Is ammo still scarce right now? Last I heard homeland was buying every round they could possibly buy.

plenty of ammo everywhere around me. now prices are not as good as they used to be. but I see them getting back to where they were

Not that I know of. I may be mistaken but I think all bullpups are for drop on ruger 10/22's

 

[Railcar79]

I have class 3 guns, and love them, but ammo, specifically 22lr, and .50bmg are nearly impossible to find, while others are around but insanely expensive. 700 nitro express and .338 are well over $50 a box

 

[kacrocorals581]

I have more than a few but this one never leaves my side S&W 686 357 mag magna port.

 

[Diesel]

Plenty of ammo here in TX.
I'll drop about 500 rounds a week on different tools.
With just my M4A1 SOPMOD I run easily 250 in 10 min on the farm.
