What Is The Next Gun You Plan On Buying?

That particular gun is a Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan in a .454 Casull round.

Dayum, that's one big piece of artillery.

Check out Youtube. Some people have made them. Some gunsmiths if they do special requests may make one as well. I've always wanted one. It could be made with a short barrel AR with a master key attachment with a housing over the rifle.

CORVETTEDUDE, are you allowed to buy anything? I'll trade you some ammo. I got tons and won't run out of ammo any more than I would Vodka. I know my Russian history. If I have bullets I can always take my neighbor's food.

Finally got around to buying an AR-15. What would you guys say is a good amount of .223 ammo a girl should have stockpiled for impending zombie apocalypse or civil war?

Wel Dino...I think one of these would be outside the realm of possibilities...

"Why do they sell sports cars that can drive to well in excess of 100 MPH when speed limits are at max 75 MPH, but mostly 55 MPH? because people want them, and the assumption is that they will be responsible when they operate them. "

It is surely because you get a better performance from these cars at a lower speed. The quintessence of the argument remains that guns are designed to kill - nothing else, cars, kitchen knives etc have that primary purpose. Yes guns should be controlled. the magic bullet though is how to get all the guns that are out there - especially among the criminal fraternity - back. That's rather like getting the genii back into the bottle. But the sort of hugely aggressive remarks made earlier by some posters here - way beyond the mildness of the arguments I'd been offering - is what worries me. Match that level of aggression with a hot temper and a hand gun and you get dead people instead of black eyes.

Anyway i really am not going to post here any more. I recognise that nothing i say will change the minds of anyone here and nor will you change mine - unless you corner me with a gun.

had to reply just for kicks..... ever drive a 5-speed porche 944? SUCKS in urban populations. I drove one thinking I was gonna be hot shit behind the wheel, until I had to try shifting AND fighting the god-awful manual steering at the same time. No thanks! so no, they don't necessarily perform better at low speeds than "lesser" cars. all they are for is status and show, and racing in certain areas.

And in case you are still reading this thread, I fully understand and respect your argument--guns were designed to kill. No question whatsoever. But to me it doesn't mean they are bad. its all in the person who holds it. Yes, they make it much easier to exact personal rage than a bat, or a knife, or a car, but nonetheless it all comes down to the fact that its the person, and not the object, that is the ultimate cause. I havent' read any of this post since the page with the quote from above, so I hope this reply isn't too far out of context at this point..... lol

I think the operating costs of that would exceed all of the Corvettes you would ever own, Dude.

enough is NEVER enough. therefore, buy as much as you can while you can. can't hurt, right?
