Does anyone carry a .308 or 5.56? Why? Which go to rifle?

I wonder if we got BD and FS together in a room which one of them would spontaneously combust first?

If you shoot a gun in the forest and no one hears it , did you really shoot it?

Looks like 'ole FS hasn't been back since 10/11.

Gee. I wonder why...

Back to the OP's question - phase plasma rifle in the 40-watt range should do it for you. Does for me anyway.

Wait did I waste post #500 on that? Crap.

The bottom line is you can take a POS gun, master it and it's quirks, and out shoot the best marksman with it. It's about just picking one and then becoming a marksman.

Every gun can kill in the hands of a marksman. So the name of the game isn't what toy to buy, it's to become a surgeon with it. Then you would have solved the problem.

We had a couple M21 (accurized M14) rifles in the military and out of 22 guys we had a few that couldn't hit water from a boat and some who could break a 9" balloon filled with chalk from 1000 yards. The same gun. You can rest assured that the ones that broke the balloon would advocate for the gun and the others wouldn't.

It's that simple.

Amen to that brother. You hit the nail EXACTLY on the head. Your post should be required readig for anyone seriously considering a rifle for self defense.

BikerDruid is alive and well. I occassionally trade emails with him. We used to argue a lot, but I realized he really knows his stuff. I really enjoy an intellectual challenge, even if it is with someone I don't always agree with. BD is,IMHO, a cool dude.

tell old BD to go go stuff himself....... I occasionally miss the old DrivelSlinger....

How did you know it was a lad?

The goth chicks make it hard to tell the difference.

I'll pass that one on to him with my next email. I'm sure he'll get a laugh.

5.56 is the nato standard and may be easier to find

[BumblingBear]

OP:

Just Pick One


Seriously. There is no "best" rifle or every soldier and hunter would be using the same thing.

Just make a choice and train with it.

Plus, IMHO you come off as kind of a mall ninja. You might want to work on that.
