I'm confused.
Would anyone be willing to take me and Corey shooting if we pay for ammo and whatever else we need to? We would like to try out a variety of guns before we make our decisions.

FNH FNX-9 - came w/ 3 x 17 round mags...shot a few rounds through one a while back and liked it, going to be mainly for range use and for kelsey to have something a bit more powerful than a .22lr to start getting familiar with shooting. Other gun is a Sig 1911-22.

Tauni I'll ping ya via PM about something shooting related I've got in the works for this summer. But either that or some other time yes I have no problem setting some time up and letting yas shoot my guns.

If we can get a group together, get to bills early some sat or sun morning and get a couple lanes I'm in. The best thing you can you when you get there is ask them which would be good, cost effective guns, to rent and grab two or three in addition to what we bring. I'd have a LC9 and my .22, maybe my AR if it's done. I know others have more. :)

You're welcome to try my collection out as well. Includes a 380, 9mm, couple of .45s and an AR. I'd be game for a mnmazda day at the range.

If we did a group outdoor meet here this spring it would be epic and awesome. That would work man, just ask Dan Workman.

What kind of 380. I'd definitely be interested in checking that out, as that's one my uncle thought would be particularly good for me.

Well I'm always trying to sell it if that tells you anything. Smith & Wesson Bodygaurd 380. 6+1 capacity. DAO trigger (means each trigger pull cocks the hammer and fires it so it's a long heavy pull.) Integrated laser is nifty, but the thing is so small it's not fun to target practice with. I have someone interested in buying it, so if that happens I may look at a Sig P238 or a Glock 19. Or a .22LR rifle like a Ruger 10/22 or SR22. Or a .22 in a 1911. Argh. Too many choices.

I haven't shot it yet, but my Sig 1911-22 feels awesome, full size so a lot of aftermarket 1911 parts fit, trigger pull is what you'd expect from a 1911 (Awesome) and there's a bunch of good aftermarket upgrade parts for it including springs/followers to expand the mags to 14 rounds (from 10). We'll see how she dose at the range. I also have a Walther P22 that I like quite a lot, but it's super finikey about ammo which is the down side.

Small DAO pistols really annoy me, I get the safety argument for carry but no thanks. I have a sneaking suspicion that I might love the 1911 platform so much that I end up having to buy one in .45 and a new holster lol.

1911s are like chips, you can't have just one.

I might be in trouble then Josh lol.

Got the gun case somewhat situated today, got the spaces for the AR and handguns cut - rest of the space will be cut for mags for all of the guns as well as a few other accessories, couldn't be happier with the way it's turned out so far.

^I like...I like a lot!! If I weren't so poor, I'd possibly own a few guns. Need to do a CC course...want my permit even if I don't own anything. Also need to try some guns at the range sometime.

I think if something does get set up and I'd be able to go, it would be a good chance for me to try different handguns...maybe try some of the guns some of you own if you all wouldn't mind.

Sure is Pete, Pelican 1050, was significantly cheaper @ Amazon vs anywhere locally, free shipping FTW! Only down side I can see is fully loaded it's gonna be HEAVY, price you pay for having a case built like a tank I guess and that's what the wheels are for. Still manageable if I need to carry it though.

Picklz, what kind of site and magnifier do you have on your AR? I want the EOTech G33 STS to accompany the 512 HWS that I already have...

It is a Primary Arms 30mm Multi Reticle Red dot sight with a Primary Arms 3x Long Eye Relief magnifier on an American Defense swing away mount. Not nearly as high end as the EOtech stuff, but I got the whole setup w/ mounts for less than a single used EOtech lol. If I were using this for Active Duty I'd probably have sprung for an Aimpoint or Eotech but as it is I'm really happy with this setup (as much as I could be w/o having shot it yet) and the PA stuff has received really good reviews.

Yeah, that thing looks like a tank! Great to keep things safe, but not especially portable without the wheels. I really like the wide handle, so hauling it around with gloves on is easier, although I typically go with a soft case for greater portability when I go deer hunting anyway. I like the "tankness" of your case though. By throwing a lock on that thing it just might be the small 'gun safe' I've been considering buying. That's the 1750 though, isn't it?

got the rest of my Ruger SR-22 Mags in today along with some .22lr ammo. Now have 10 mags total for the .22 and around 1200 rounds of .22lr on tap ready for plinking away.
