Wal*Mart has a box of 50 for under 10 bucks. :)

That's great for most of us common folk. Others need fashionable and trendy ammo not found at Walmart?

:laugh2: That is pretty cool but I am shocked there are not bullet holes or buckshot in that thing.

You know some kids would be driving by and just have to shoot at that thing.

It would be cool if that thing made gunshot sounds randomly, or better yet if it had a motion sensor and would let out a big bang at night. :laugh1:

You would see all of these old pickups stuck in the ditch on the other side of the road. :laugh1:

This pic is too cute. I don't think I can just let my 9mos old nephew play on the laptop like that. He was sitting on my lap, while I was on laptop, and in two seconds flat, he had taken one of the keys off the keyboard.

He was so smooth about it, too. He took the key off and it was headed straight for his mouth. lol

When my Sister lived in "rural" Arkansas. They had a mail box shaped like a giant big mouth bass. Must be something in the water...:confused:

Next thing you know you will get an infraction for something and claim it was your baby boy that was to blame. :p: ;)

Love those pics of your little guy. You are blessed with a great looking kid.

Now you mention it, when I came in the room he had this look on his face :eek: and he quickly proceeded to shut the computer off. ;)

Thanks BP.

From now on, when ever there is a post in my name and it is something incoherent and unintelligible just assume it is coming from him. :D

Nice buy. I bought a sig sauer p229 a couple years ago. 9mm as well. Be careful with that cheap walmart ammo though. It has a tendency to jam. If it does, don't get in a hurry to unjam it. Take your time, and go slow when you work on getting it unjammed.

Years ago I was flirting with the idea of buying a handgun, but I was a DC resident at the time, and that was not legally possible. Anyway, here's one of the automatics I was considering. All I know is that it's Czech and no longer in production.

It's just range fodder. I'm going to Target masters Sunday and run a Hundred or so rounds through it just as a function test. Took it down today and cleaned it. Cant believe the guy never fired it.

Those were good pistols bbgun. If you want to try out handguns I would suggest taking a NRA class at a local range and renting a few pistols. Start with .22 rimfire and work your way up.

I owned a Makarov years back. It was made in Russia in the early 60's by happy little commrads. :) Fun little gun but weighed like two pounds as I remember. The surplus Russian ammo was very dirty, but it went bang every time. That one's fancy! :D

LOL. Yeah they are built like tanks. The Soviets weren't interested in looks. Wait till you try to break it down for the first time...:D

BTW. What are they going for these days? I think I paid like $70.00 for mine like 15 years or so ago.

ive seen the bulgarian and russian ones as low as 100 and the rest anywhere between 150 and 250, with the .380 up to 350. not bad but my girl is nervous about having a gun so she wants a good gun safe and all that before we get one and we just cant justify the purchase right now(or the past 3 years):bang2: :laugh2:
