Outdoor Recreation - December 2007

i was looking at a scope for my 10/22, and in all the descriptions that say something like: 3-9x40, 6x42, 3-9x50..etc. So i was just wondering what all these measurements mean and what number is best/better.

I am currently shooting skeet and lost all my other chokes
I only have a full choke
Can I shoot my 20 gauge remington 870 pump with no choke in it???

Will it mess up the grooves in the barrel where the regular choke goes?

I have a MP5 A5 electric airsoft rifle and it wont shoot. I shot it a bit on full and semi auto but then the next day it shot a couple of BB's and then stopped. I did charge it the night before for 12 hours like it said. I thought it was jamed at first but then when i checked the barrel it was empty. Then when i pressed the trigger it didn't even make a sound even when there were BB's in it. So i think it may have to do with the battery or the connection of the battery. I tried taking it apart but i couldn't get it apart. If you knew what i could do to fix it I would be very gratefull!
Thanks

We see this over and over in movies. It seems far too easy.
And there is never a dangerous ricochet? I would not try it close up without eye protection. I assume it depends on the power of the handgun, the type of bullet, and the strength of the steel mechanism in the padlock. Perhaps someone has tried this or knows from police or military training. Where do you aim? Which part of the lock is vulnerable if any? [This may seem like a dumb question, but I've always wondered about this.]

I'm on a tight budget and I want to buy a gun. I won't use it for defense or anything like that, but just to have fun at the range.

I went to a gun show trying to find something under $100 but I couldn't find almost anything for under $200.

I know that quality guns are expensive but I feel bad that I can't even find a used gun for cheap... Any sugestion where can I find a good deal?

P.S. I've tried to go to the gun auction sites, but after shipping, and the FFL fee all the savings are lost.

My husband got 2 deer today while deer hunting in Kansas. We want to process it ourselves, but with our work schedules, next weekend would be better for us. The highs each day are suppose to be in the range of 40-50 degree range lows in the 24-34 degree range. Will it keep that long before processing it & freezing it?
