This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

The RPGPundit's Own Forum Rules
This part of the site is controlled by the RPGPundit. This is where he discusses topics that he finds interesting. You may post here, but understand that there are limits. The RPGPundit can shut down any thread, topic of discussion, or user in a thread at his pleasure. This part of the site is essentially his house, so keep that in mind. Note that this is the only part of the site where political discussion is permitted, but is regulated by the RPGPundit.

Quote from: Antiquation!;1106417Bastard! I've wanted one for ages since I shot a friend's out in Ellensburg. All I have now is my glock 23 (tritium sights, ghost trigger assembly) and my remington 700T w/bipod left. Had to sell off my frankensteined 5.56 chambered AR and the expensive shit I slapped on it as well as my sig P245 carry years ago for moving money. It's probably for the best as there are no good ranges within immediate distance (and none at all that go beyond ~100 yards so it's a waste) plus I get exuberant with 'spending' ammunition at the range... I'm always tempted at our gun shows, those guys really know how to show off wares. :D I would much rather get an M1A than an AR next, it's just... the price...

Well, she's a beauty no doubt, I shied off buying one last year, as I am not a big fan of synthetic stocks, and waited until a found a good price on one with the original walnut stock. Unfortunately they've been working me so much lately, I have yet to shoot her. I am looking forward to zeroing in. My next acquisition is going to be a Henry Big Boy in 45-70. Though that will be a few months off. Yeah, ammo can be a big drain on the pocket, but it's worth it to get the proficiency you need to make your firearms perform to your satisfaction. As far as the price goes, I would wait if I were you and buy what you want. I have an AR, and while it's a fine weapon, it doesn't hold a candle to the M1A. .308 Winchester (7.62 Nato) is, in my opinion, a far superior cartridge compared to 5.56, but it's also pricier. Though I paid nearly twice what I paid for my AR, I don't regret it one iota.

I am looking at a Glock in .40 as they have one at PSA for a ridiculously low price right now, though I tend to prefer .45 ACP in general. I have a SIG P229 chambered for either .40 or .357 Sig, you only have to switch out the barrel. Though I still prefer the 1911 (I have 3), my CCP is a Springfield Armory XDS chambered in .45 ACP. She kicks like a Missouri Mule, but you have to kind of expect that shooting 45 in a subcompact.
