The Armory - Guns, Knives, and Axes

I saw this one at Academy,

JTS 12 Gauge Semiautomatic AK Shotgun

Might not be as reliable as the Remington, though.

Not a real AK, Chicom Norinco. The real deal Rooskie is the Vepr 12.

Looks like the first gun I got my kids.

Yeah that was my first one.

My first was similar, but with wooden furniture, though I barely remember it. My father destroyed it after an ill advised Freindly Fire Incident involving my brothers.

I'm looking around at the offerings for a 22LR revolver.

I'd like something like the Heritage Rough Rider, but probably a bit higher in quality.



Colt's got some offerings, but they're discontinued, and the prices are high.



I figure I'll just keep getting guns for my wife on the birthdays and anniversaries until she gets wise to me.

I shot a friends rough rider and honestly, that's one of the most enjoyable guns I've ever shot. Its hard to explain. It's just neat.

This firearm was historically used to teach teenage boys to shoot in Swiss schools.

Most countries had a similar system in place to train young men how to shoot properly.

That all changed when women took over everything in Europe.

Looking at this pairing,

Winchester 1873 and Colt SAA in .45 LC

Yeah, I might get that one for her, but I'm still leaning towards the Colt.

What's the price difference? You're probably just paying for a name with that level of revolver. Trigger pull would be something to consider. Iirc the rough rider is fairly stiff but I haven't shot enough revolvers to know how common that is. I know at least some are purposefully heavy as a safety precaution.

It's about a three hundred dollar difference, at minimum. The reviews I've read say the Heritage is good...for the price. Not a lot of faith it will last to be handed down one day. I'll talk to the guy at the gun store and see what he thinks.
