GUNS!!!

[johnnierotten]

As far as accuracy...I would say about the same...As you mentioned the beretta is alot easier to disassemble and clean.
As for the warranty...I wouldn't know..I bought both beretta's at my friends pawn shop and they were used.
I do know this,the S&W seemed to be a bit lighter....either that or I'm getting weak in my old age!!

[johnnierotten]

I have had only 4 Beretta's in my life.....I loved them all.
If you get one you won't regret it.

Yeah the only thing stopping me is the money. LOL

Here's a couple of my fav's.

My oldest and dearest friend - Ruger .22 cal Single-Six three screw, w/mag cyl (unmodified) I bought it after being released from active duty in the fall of 1966.

My pride and joy - Henry Golden Boy .17 HMR w/custom receiver. This was given to me for my 65th birthday by my two best friends.

Tried and true. The faithful old standby. - Colt Series 70, Mark IV .45 auto. This is the second one. Sold the first one They just keep getting more expensive so I think I'll hold on to this one.

My "ugly gun" just hangs around waiting for someone to be naughty. - Hi-Point 9mm

Maybe I'll post a few more later.

An unloaded firearm is no more useful than a rock.

Nice line up Jerry. You have some great friends. Don't know what to say about that Golden Boy except

[Miller Bro's]

Jerry,

[johnnierotten]

[jerryd6818]

I don't know if any of y'all have seen this little video but I tried it with that .17HMR and it works.

My prize 9mm Browning High Power.........................


Taurus nickel .45 L.C...................never been fired............it's blued brother has seen lots of action!

[gino]

Nice lookin 9 G. Real sweet

[johnnierotten]

Both are very nice!! ....I have seen the Taurus 6 shooters in pics but long to hold and possibly fire one...they look very impressive. ...being a big Western movie fan,the six shooter has always been my favorite style firearm.
Thanks for showing them gmusic.

[johnnierotten]

Forgot to post this earlier....a gun like mine was used in "Blade Runner".......also a few episodes of "Stargate SG-1"..
Thought that was kinda neat info.

[gino]

Cool gun JR! You always come up with the coolest stuff.

[gmusic]

Thanks Johnnie,

My brother and I used to shoot single six .22 by the boat load. We got pretty darn good with those things! The .45 is a little more costly to shoot!

[johnnierotten]

Thanks Guy's.. ..I thought it was cool to see a gun,like the one you own, being used in a movie.

Gmusic..I know what ya mean..my Old Man had a gun back a few years ago that a single cartridge cost Him $1.25..that could get costly.

[gino]

Gettin a new 9MM beretta and will post pics when I have it. Been waitin some time for this one.

My son-in-law has a S&W 500. I hope to get to shoot it this Thanksgiving weekend. Take a look at ammo cost for that beast http://east.outdoormarksman.com/index.p ... h=65_1_203

Year before last, one of the Christmas presents I gave him was a box a box of 20 I bought at Gander Mountain. I paid $60 for that dad-gummed box of cartridges.

[johnnierotten]

Gino...make sure ya post pics...gotta see it.

Jerry,I thought a $1.25 was high!! ....I have never shot one of those bad boys....let us know how you like it.

[jerryd6818]

Jerry,I thought a $1.25 was high!! ....I have never shot one of those bad boys....let us know how you like it.

Or did you mean "if I like it"? I've heard the fun part ends after a couple of rounds.

[gringo]

" I've heard the fun part ends after a couple of rounds."


?
pick different targets

[johnnierotten]

I think your right,Jerry........maybe twice for me.

Heres a pic of one being fired at night time..

[jerryd6818]

Geez, it's like a lump of C-4 going off in your hand.


Gringo - Alternate targets aren't legal in Illinois.

[johnnierotten]

Hey Jerry...you might want to wear gloves when you shoot that cannon. ......all joking aside..I bet its FUN!!

[rangerbluedog]

Here's a pic of my lovely wife checkin out the six pounder at Ninety Six, SC.

[Owd Wullie]

Pretty Lady and WAY cool old cannon!!

Here's me and ma bang stick!!


It's 100% as issued in 1942 from the Springfield Armory. It went all the way through the Pacific campaigns with a SEABEE and followed him home after the war. Apparently he didn't shoot it much as it gauges out to nearly new.
