What type of gun or rifle do you have?

Just out of curiosity!

I'm a gun-newbie and shot fairly good for the very first time (see pic below).

Dimes, quarters, and thumbtags are fairly easy to shoot.

However, i'm looking to buy some really good hand guns or long range rifles.

One problem though, the choices out there are so enormous, that I'm kind of lost in what to pick.

So,....what do you recommend for long range target shooting and home defense?

In addition;

- What type of gun / rifle or shotgun do you have?

- What caliber?

- What kind of ammo do you use & why?

- And what do you use it for?

- Does anybody know anything about the Mossberg 500 Road Blocker below?

Thanks in advance.

:no:

Doesn't matter if he uses it or not. Money is "owned" by the Federal Reserve Bank and thusly not yours to deface or mutilate.

However, the chances of actual prosecution is about nil! :P

I say throw away the key!

So, money is like beer? You never really own it, you just rent it?
