Firearm BS thread

Do you two need some time alone?

 

Isn't that what they told us last time, was to get a room. LOL. I thought you were sweet on me, all shucks !

 

What they think smugly and I do...



What we think we do...



Probably what it would actually be like...

 

Well you're spot on, except for the first one.

FTFY.

 

That about sums it up !

 

You got to love that little scrapper ass spike buck!

 

I picked up a Tikka t3x lite in 308 today! Ordered a Mountain Tactical rail for it. Now I just need scope rings, a scope and some ammo!

Realistically I'll be shooting mostly between 100 and 500 yards. The rifle is going to be used to shoot paper 90% of the time.

With that in mind does anybody have any suggestions for rings and a scope? I'd like to keep it under $500 for the scope. I know that doesn't buy much but it will be enough for my purposes

 

Does anyone on here have the Henry's survival rifle? They sell one at dicks and im thinking about getting this rifle for personal defense when I go camping for peace of mind. Wanna know how you guys feel about it and if you found it for cheaper anywhere else. https://m.dickssportinggoods.com/p/...rifle-15bhcahnryssrvvl2rif/15bhcahnryssrvvl2r

 

If you're looking for something for personal defense, .22 really isn't the way to go. .22's against humans have a reputation for hitting their target, not slowing it down in the least, and then causing them to suddenly drop dead a couple of days later. Get a rifle in a larger caliber, or, if you're worried about weight, a revolver or pistol in a larger caliber.

Or a shotgun.

 

Or a shotgun.

 

ooooor a shotgun

 

It is a survival rifle, not a defense rifle.

If you guys haven't seen it, go look it up. Compact, it comes apart, and stores in it's watertight stock. Pretty cool.

 

Pretty sure a shotgun is going to help you survive more than a .22. You can shoot a shotgun and scare bears away, and it's much more forgiving (with the appropriate shells) when you need to use it to hunt.

and... you can break a shotgun down and store it in a watertight case.

 

I missed that...

 

what he said

and if you can stand the weight of a double barrel, you could have a slug or buck shot in one and like #6 in the other and kill anything that moves

 

Hells Yeas!
