Who likes guns?
Wow.. why is it that every time I look away...something cool happens! 
Rob, glad you liked the "Mall Ninja" site. That guy is pretty dam funny. I've ruined at least one keyboard reading that stuff (and the replies) when it all started 8yrs ago. Funny stuff.
I like the line "If plan A involves taking multiple .338Lapua shots to the back, you should probably think about a plan B"
There are countless others, but that one was on the top of my head.
As far as your thoughts on guns/crime etc. I understand what you're saying. I'm active on several other gun related boards, and believe me when I say you aren't the first person I've spoken to on this subject. I appreciate the fact that you at least have some intelligent thought behind what you say. My sister, as I've mentioned before, is another one who does. She's a PHD, and definately has an above average intelligence. People's beliefs vary a lot on this, and that's what makes life great! I love my sister very much. We disagree on this subject. Hell, we disagree on almost everything!
My thoughts fall right in line with CBRiderNevada on this one, but I know many people who don't feel the same way. Nothing is going to change the way I feel about it, and nothing may change the way you feel.
It's just like religion, or politics, or abortion, or gay marriage, etc. etc. etc. Steve and Pete are right. No point in arguing about it.
I take no offense, and actually appreciate hearing other people's views on this subject (and all the other subjects posted above, for that matter). People just get too emotional and crazy when they feel threatened. Dam shame, really. I like to learn!
I hate it when people say "Let's agree to disagree", but we're gonna have to.

OK, so Steve and Pete and we will call them a "Classic Shadow"... Kind of like the Shadow on the old TV series Suspense Theater.... See what happens when you break up a good never ending argument? You become the middle people and now marriage became your label. I hate it when that happens!! ha, ha.... Sooooo, to get that ugly picture out of my little voice's mouth, I would like to move on to the gal with the toy gun! Steve, sorry brother, but I would rather see her get "wet" than her get you wet. That shut my little voice up - dropped his little imaginary jaw on that thought!
So, no more arguments on guns, now what the Frick am I going to get my blood pressure pumping over?! Oh ya, babe with toy squirt gun... got it......
P.S. I learned a long time ago not to get between two dogs fighting (Classic Shadow you got between the dogs!). Got some good scars on my arms from that fight break up. One of my dogs is missing half an ear because it was the first one I got a hold of!!! I brought teeth to a teeth fight! I guess what I am saying is, I really don't need a gun, I BITE!

So would all the heavy thinkers back off and let CBRider and i have a discussion on guns in general.
So mate lets talk guns and let the rest look on with there paranoid hysteria!!
You are getting under my skin already, I do know that..
anyway.....listen Rod ,( "never hiding behind a computer."... wtf ?)
I do not really care what you might think are, or are not potentially problem topic areas here on the CBRF...
I am telling you ..
By some of your statements in your last post , you are still opening this up to potential debate.......so loose it ...
Loose the talk of governments , laws and all that stuff...
We have rules so please observe them mate
You are obviously well informed and rational about this topic BUT other may not be...
That's why we have to dodge the laws and governmental issues related to to this topic here...
Feel free to learn or "get your head around" that side of the topic by PM...

Hmmm, someone didn't read the "code of conduct" located in the New Member section 
Please remember that this is not a political forum. And we solve no real worldwide issues other than maybe why a bike won't start. I would ask that you think of threads like different TV channels. Don't like the current show, change the channel. It would take 100% of my time if I decided to voice my opinion to the TV networks every time they air a show I disagree with ... so I change the channel and move on.
In the past we used to lock these types of pissing contests but it seems that only leads to a few dictating what everyone can discuss. Now we tend to give a friendly warning nudge and then edit out unnecessary posts and members.

Mr. Chainstretcher... you are the man!
Steve....you are too.....to a lesser degree...
Seriously, though...You're both spot on. Thank you much.
On to guns. Lately, with the ammo shortges in this country, I've been shooting a lot more .22cal. I reload tons of .223, but even that has been getting expensive so I've switched to my .22LR selections. I like .22LR a lot. It's fun, and about as cheap as it gets. Also widely available, and the fiancee and the boy really get into it.
Here is a pic of a couple of my .22LR pistols. Up top is the classic Ruger MKII Target in stainless. Below is actually a Glock 21 (.45ACP) with a .22LR conversion kit by Advantage Arms. Neat little kit, really, and is an excellent trainer.

You better not, shadow!
I just got this one a couple months ago. I had been looking for this one for quite a while. I specifically wanted the SS MKII Target with the bull barrel. I just didn't want to pay almost $600 for it from the local shop.
My buddy had the exact same one when we were younger, and I loved it. I gave him specific directions to call me if he ever wanted to part with it, but we lost touch for a bit, and he sold it to someone else!
Then, I saw this one, and the guy only wanted $300. I was first in line for it, and there were 5 or 6 others behind me...hoping I woldn't follow through. But I did. The guy was really nice. He's a police officer down in Virginia. He even drove it up here to me and delivered it!
It shoots great. I installed the geen dot scope and Wiegand rail. Just put the dot on the target.....and squeeze! Just a great gun. Worth the wait.
