You would think after spending 7 months with a firearm I'd be sick of them.
Nope.

I've never fired a Glock. There is just something about all that plastic that has never agreed with me. I'll have to snag one some time. I hear they are reliable! I remember seeing video of a guy who put 30 000rds through his, buried it in the dirt, and a year later dug it out and it fired perfectly!
Here's my new baby. Haven't even fired it yet:

Liked the glock I fired fine, and no denying they are a good weapon. However the Browning Hi Power I fired that day sat better in my hand. Personal preference. Nice looking piece though. which model?

I really like my 1911 compact, but the webley is really much nicer to shoot, and doesn't spray the evidence all over

WHY do you have a gun?? Surely a Glock is not used for hunting..

Wow, that's deep. Are you a constitution groupie?
Are you really into the history of the second amendment?
P.S. I figger if you want to abolish the 2nd amendment,
heck, you might as well take them all out in order and
start with the 1st amendment.

Don't care what anyone says...................
SUPER SOAKER 300!!! Double barrel high powered destruction.
15 to 20 pumps and you're ready for the first wet t-shirt contest that is lucky enough to come your way.
No expensive ammo required. Must be 18 or older to compete in said contests.
just my opinion though. summer is coming!

Frea-kin eh! Spot on with the soaker.
I know things have become very very competitive in the personal water delivery weapons industry with the new plastics and carbon-fibres available on the market. But the early 1990's -50 was a true trend setter in the field of gun launched H20.

Now now, Hedley, I only asked WHY?
I assume you have a weapon as well? So, why do you?

I certainly like the 1911. Para and Kimber make a good copy but...
Its a little too big to carry comfortably.
