I've had alot of experience using firearms, but I've never actually owned a pistol.

I've done my own research, and I think I'll be picking either a:
Taurus PT92
Beretta PX4 Storm
Beretta 92FS
Springfield XD

I need help making the decision. Also, if anyone else knows a decent pistol that isnt too expensive, please feel free to reccomend that also.

I'd rather not spend more than $500

I want to get a semiautomatic .308 rifle. I would prefer a sporting style to an AR style, because I don't want a pistol grip. However, I like the thicker barrels that come with most AR style rifles. I would like a longer barrel (at least 22 inches). This will be primarily for deer hunting.

I am looking at buying a long range rifle but don't know what to buy. I recently bought my first gun, a Mossberg Persuader short barrel 12 ga. Now I want a rifle, I am not sure what caliber or brand I should get. I am looking for something under $500 and whatever I get should be able to pick off a person at 200 yards. Don't worry, I am not going after anyone. I am just thinking in the off chance war ever made it to America, I could pick someone off from a somewhat safe distance. I know some come with a scope out of the box and I consider that a plus. Let me know what you think =)

Im pretty sure I am going to get a Ruger M77 Mkii Compact rifle chambered for 7mm-08. I was curious if there are any upgrades such as stocks, triggers, etc. for this... Also what would you rate this and why? I'm getting the blued with walnut stock. Also, what groupings can I expect from 100 and 200 yards. One last question, would this accept a full size stock to replace the compact stock, and would I be able to replace the barrel with a full size barrel? I'm actually thinking about doing this I am just wondering if it would work.

Who would you like to see win your respective political party's nomination to run for president of the United States? Doesn't matter what party you may lean towards. Just curious.

Why is it when someone and I won't name names asks a question about hunting and then sends an email to another who diagrees with him and then blocks him so he can not reply? Seems to me if you really want to debate about it you would not do that. What kind of answers to you expect to get when asking about anti hunting in a hunting forum? If you do not have the yahoos to expect someone to disagree with then why ask it? Seems to me that unless you agree with the question you are shunned. Very childish and one sided.

Ok, a pal of mine at work was convicted of a felony when he was 21. Now he is 38

He mentioned that he liked to hunt when he was a kid but he couldnt now because of the felony.

I am under the impression that he still could hunt with a bow, is that correct?

Is there any way he could get his gun rights back, if not for handguns then maybe just for long guns?

I need your expertise on this one. I'm moving too Alaska pretty soon and I'm gunna be gettin my first gun dog. I have plenty of experience with non gun dogs.

I'm at a tossup between these two dogs.

http://dogbreedinfo.com/blackrussianterrier.htm

http://dogbreedinfo.com/labrador.htm

I want to use whatever I get as a bird dog and for tracking deer. What I'm thinking is the labrador is the obvious choice beceause it was bred as a hunting dog. On the other hand the terrier is very resistant to cold, and is supposted to be smart enough to learn anything I would wanna teach it. Keep in mind that the best season to hunt in Alaska is winter.

I just saw i am legend and in it, will smith uses this type of trap where he uses a car as a weight. basically something steps or triggers something and they end up being pulled by a rope and suspended in mid air. The car serves as the weight to do the pulling. I just wanna know what the name of this kind of trap is so i can see how it works. Ive seen this done a lot on cartoons where they use a tree instead to pull up.

Check out this story below. A guy poaches an elk out of a public park in 2004 and is just now being fined after FINALLY being convicted. They had to take DNA samples, hair and tissue samples and go through the court procedures for 2 + years and he only gets a $3000.00 fine and a year of probation. It seems like the DNA tests would cost at least that, not to mention court costs, etc. Doesn't seem like much of a punishment for poaching on restricted land. This really pizzes me off since I haven't been able to fill my elk tag yet and this bozo poaches and gets a slap on the wrist! Not to mention he butchers the carcass in the field and leaves the meat hanging for four days, probably ruining it. Seems like he should have gotten a much larger fine and at least some serious community service or jail time.

You guys heard of the NFL football player whose home got broken into he confronted the buglars with a machete they had guns, he got shot. People keep complaining about anti-gun people having guns and this case it could have saved the homeowners life. Do you guys think he could have confronted the burglars from a much safer position had he a gun?

I have found a 6-24x44 Black Matte III. Mill Dot Barska scope for $185.00 (usually $450.00)
Is this a good scope or does it just sound like a good deal?(how well will it take abuse)

Also it has an illuminated glass-etched reticle if the battery runs out will i still be able to see the reticle???

Why do people come into the hunting forum to ask about anti hunting questions?

Why are these people slow?

Why is the sky blue?

Why do they care so much about hunting?

If they care so much, why do we still have wild game? I say lets let them open their homes to overpopulation.

What color is purple?

Where can I picket with Jessie Jack@$$?

Who let the dogs out?

Do any of you hunters go into other forums and ask stupid questions? -
Baseball - Why does baseball suck?
Running - Do you like to run and exercise?
Single and dating - I like him, but she likes her, and he doesn't know I exist, and if he looks at me like this, what does it mean.

And who is buried in Grant's Tomb?

Thanks in advance.
