- NOTICE: I'm really sick, so I might not be online that much. On the plus side I might actually get a 4506 before Xmas and, at the cost of selling my High Standard, will maybe get a CZ-75 or FNP-9 within the next year-S&Wshooter 00:45, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
Name- I won't tell you so don't even ask.
Age- High school age.
Location- Galveston County, Texas (I'm not going to say what specific town I live in)
Current Weapon Riding In My Pocket: Gerber AR300 BB
Someday I would very much like to be a police officer or federal agent (preferably DEA). I love to shoot, go deer hunting, research firearms and listen to Rammstein or Sabaton. I am pretty old fashioned in my preferences for guns and don't really take much interest into newer guns because they are soulless. I would rather use a single action revolver than a polymer wonder-nine. I am a pretty decent shot with a pistol and a damn deadly one with a rifle (sadly,I am near sighted so I have to use scopes). I come from a family with a rich military history (two of my uncles served in 'Nam, one as a SEAL; on other of my uncles helped build the first Blackbird plane,my father's uncle served under Patton in WW2, which gained him 2 bronze stars, and a distant relative of mine was a general, helped design the Sherman tank and presented the M16 rifle to the government for testing).

Favorite Guns
Winchester Model 52 Olympic rifle- My favorite .22 rifle. My Opa gave me this wonderful rifle and it is pretty much my baby.
Smith & Wesson 4506- I would love to have one of these fine pistols. It fits my hand as if the gun were made just for me. Too bad I can't ever find one when I have money.
High Standard M1911A1- Pretty good M1911 clone. Cheap, reliable and made by a Texan company. Would be perfect for me if it were a little larger, had a better slide release and a new beaver tail (the standard beaver tail almost broke my hand and cut me up pretty badly). The only reason I bought this gun is because I couln't find a 4506. *Update* This gun is causing me tons of grief. I can't find parts for it that fit correctly and High Standard doesn't sell additional parts, which means if I shoot this gun w/o a glove on, I'll bust my hand up. Maybe I can sel it and buy a Springfield "Loaded" GI -09/15/09
Browning A-Bolt Micro Hunter (Left handed in 7mm-08)- My favorite deer rifle. Light wieght, has barely any recoil and is extremely accurate(especially with my Zeiss attached). The only flaw to this gun is that it as loud as my Mosin Nagant M44 (I shot my Mosin next to a guy with an elephant rifle once; the Mosin was louder) because of the muzzle break that I had put on.
Stag Arms 2TL- only AR variant that I can shoot comforatably because I'm a leftie. Really acccurate at long ranges despite the relative shortness of the carbine (maybe it has something to do with the big ass Russian scope I have on it).
Ruger Speed Six (snub nose)- My favorite snubby. I grew up shooting this gun and have only seen it malfunction once(the gun is over 10 yrs old and we had put at least 4 boxes of .38 special through). When I get a CCL, it will probably be my CCW.
Smith & Wesson Model 686+P-In my opinion it is the best revolver in the world. 7 rounds of .38 or .357. Accurate, fits my hands and doesn't kick at all.
Ruger Redhawk- I love this pistol; 'nuff said.
FN FAL- I would like to own this gun but don't have the money. Seems like it would be just right for me. I want either a Austrian Stg.58, a British L1A1 or an Israeli model FAL
Double Barreled Shotguns- I hate auto-shoties and don't like shooting pump guns. This is the only type of shotgun that I really care for.
Kimber Team Match II and Desert Warrior- Best 1911's I have ever shot.
Walther P22- A pretty good 22 pistol for kids and those of small stature and is fun to shoot but I can't hit anything with it.
FN FNP- This may be the only polymer frame pistol other than the M&P that I would ever consider buying.

Beretta 92 series-Jams alot, inaccurate, breaks easily. This gun is the gun I wouldn't give to my enemies and should only cost $100 at the very most because you would be getting what you pay for. I love Beretta's other guns, but they should be ashamed of this pistol.
Glock Pistols- I just don't like them. I held a Glock 22 yesterday (July 20th, 2009) and it felt EXACTLY like an airsoft gun
Springfield XD- Too many safeties on it and I don't like how it sits in my hand.
Walther P99- Great gun, but I can't ever hit anything with them. If it were a little larger I would have no problem with the P99.
Colt pistols- good guns but I am not going to pay $1000 dollars for a broken Colt M1911 or revolver when I can get a brand new copy for much less.
Heckler & Koch G36C- I like the normal model better and I'm tired of only being able to use G36C's in video games.
9mm parabellum- Perfect for little kids, jackasses and the weak. I'm a .45 man all the way and will only use certain 9mm pistols (Hi-Power, CZ-75, S&W pistols)
.25 caliber pistols- perfect guns to use if you absolutely want to get killed by the person who you just pissed off by shooting. Has barely any stopping power.
Gun selection in Rainbow 6 games- A S&W pistol is used in the advertisements of or are shown somehow in every Rainbow Six game, but are never used. Also, putting the Deseart Eagle,Five SeveN and Raging Bull the games is idiotic. The 5.7 is always underpowered, even though the bullet itself will zip right through light armor; The Desert Eagle is useless (should be replaced with a M1911) and the Raging Bull is impractical (replace it with a S&W revolver, lots of counter terrorist agencies use them sometimes). Also, the games doesn't need several guns that are almost exactly the same, like the P99 and USP.40, the 870 and Spas12, and all the sniper rifles. Also, the Glock 18 in the Vegas games does no damage and the magazine is too small for it to be practical.
SIG-Sauer pistols- really top heavy and expensive. I refuse to spend that much on a pistol that tries to flip over in my hand when I hold it. Their Hammerli pistol is pretty sweet though and is actually my favorite .22 pistol. I held a P239 yesterday (July 30th, 2009) and I think I might want one now.
Dual-tone guns-Dual Tone just looks stupid in my opinion.
H&K pistols- I handled a P9S the other day and everything was perfect except for the goddamn mag release lever, which would make it uncomfortable to fire because I'm a leftie. It is starting to look like the only H&K handgun I could ever own is the P7 series. Fuck H&K and their pistols. If I can use the gun, it quickly turns out to be a piece of shit (H&K USP series); if a pistol is everything I want and more, something makes it impossible for me to use (H&K P9) or costs as much as a fuckin' S&W M500 Performance Center[1] (H&K P7 [2]).
