who is into guns?
 
i kinda want to get into pistols but im sure i shouldn't make a huge investment right off the bat. i mean, if i get one and end up not using it much, i don't want to be out a grand haha.

so where is a good place to start?

im looking at semi auto, i guess something small and cheap for a first gun.

go see any of the mexicans down the street and tell them that you want a fully auto pistol for dirt cheap, like ten bucks. when they say ---- no, you tell them your friend is waiting for you to come back, and if you don't - hes going to call the cops. then they will sell you a gun for real cheap and you can go have fun >:D

for a first gun i'd recomend a 22, the bullets are cheap as ---- and anyone that hates on the bullet being so small hasnt been shot with one, a bullet is a bullet, and one to the head can still kill. I've been eyen those sig 357 semi auto pistols, always loved me a 357 mag.

Yeah I've got shot in the leg in a hunting accident (no it wasnt Cheny, haha) with a .22 It went straight through my thigh but it still hurt like a ----------er. Alot of people talk ---- on .22's but for the money you really cant beat them. I guess it comes down to what you're gonna be using the pistol for.

He lives in MN, there are probably no Mexicans down the street... Unless you still live in St.Paul, then there are a few.

22 is mos def where it's at.

find a nice .22.. or if you want something more powerful a 30-30 or 30.06. bullets are more expensive but they're fun to shoot. I got my 30-30 for 90 bucks from an Amish. nice find.

smith and wesson makes a gun much like a glock but just 300bones or o. comes in 9mm or 40mm and i think 45. Ive shot the .40 and its very nice.
S&W SW9VE . this ones a 9mm

I love my matched set of Winchester 30-30's.

It'll kill a deer cleanly out a bit over 200yards (Most deer are shot < 200yds). It's killed more deer than anything else.
They have *1/3* the recoil force that a .30-06 does, and about 1/2 the recoil of most 30cal / MAG rounds.
30-30 ammo is a little cheaper.

Hard to find good ammo, but I *love* my new (cough about 80 year old) .303 Lee-Enfield SMLE mkIII.

Start with a little 22 auto. A box of 50 rounds is about $1.75 at wall-mart. As much as I love my larger, older rifles. A 22 will let you plink all day long for a few dollars.
A 1 box/ 20-30 rounds of 30-30 (or about any other 30 cal, or mag rounds) is $11-13.
For that you can buy 350+ .22 rounds.

If you shoot often, or shoot alot, The best thing to do is keep a rag with gun oil on it with the gun. When you finish shooting it, run the rag down the barrel. It won't replace fully cleaning it... But it'll get 90% of the build-up out & not be a pain in the ass to do & keep you from ahving to constantly clean a weapon that see's alot of use.
