@freemo Desert Eagle in all three calibres. Same frame, different uppers in a kit, all don't in nickel finish. For the rifle, a Barret I think.... not for practicality, but just the sheer joy of being able to reach out and touch someone from a mile or more away.
Now on a budget, useful weapons, not toys... I'm pretty happy with my Remington new army, 1858. I might like another, but with the 12 inch barrel in stainless, and the detachable stock. For a rifle, I am seriously thinking about that KelTek SU19 or the Henry A7. I like light weight collapsible weapons that can still do what they are meant to do. Something that you can pack.
@JonKramer Nice choices.. I was considering a Desert Eagle as well.
@Flatulenator My plan is to load alternativing shotgun shells and hollow points in The Judge, use that as my first line of defense.. my HK VP9 will be my conceal carry
@splitshockvirus@mstdn.starnix.network @freemo@qoto.org double internal mags, UTS-12 bullpup shotgun
@Flatulenator Agreed if those are the two choices.
I went with a judge, its a shotgun and a handgun :) I decided the handgun format means ill be in hand and aimed much quicker than a shotgun, but since it takes bullets and/or shotgun shells I could still get the benefit of a shotgun.
@splitshockvirus Single barrel, multiple shots.. looked like some sort of a semi-automatic shotgun but like I said i dont really know. I think there might have been one in T2 movie.
@freemo H&K G3A3 and a Beretta M92FS with the competition barrel and trigger.
I love precision but it's good to see what other countries can do.
@Flatulenator Going the classic route, nothing wrong with that!
@splitshockvirus I wish i knew enough about shotguns to remember the model.. but I want one of those shotguns that holds several shells at once (not really sure how they work)
@colinsmatt11 Good if a cyborg tries to mug you too :)
@splitshockvirus The browning is a pretty sexy looking piece!
@colinsmatt11 Fair, what sort of new-age weapon would you pick then?
@LouisIngenthron Classic, and good, choices.
Im kinda confused by this response, what made you bring up the millennium pistol? We are talking about The Judge.
They arent the same.. both are equally evil and incompetent, sure, but they excel at being evil in entirely different ways.
@mandlebro A 50 cal would be fun.. the problem is im not sure I could ever find a place to shoot it.
@freemo If I was thinking pure vanity, it'd be a Barret 50 cal and a S&W 450 magnum as I have no need for the connective tissue in my shoulder and wrists.
@LouisIngenthron So the real question for you though... what would be the one gun youd want over all other, lets say in terms of collectable, and then your top choice for self-defense.
