Like a pickle got dills. First time ever shooting a gun.



Gotta say, it was not what I expected. The gun has a lot more power than I was prepared for, and the concussive forces were shocking. In fact it was a bit jarring and scary to hold the thing and I never quite got used to it. Just knowing what I had in hand, instant death. The slightest move of my finger and your soul is mine. It doesnt feel right to be honest lol. Man should have to earn this kind of power, it's all so effortless.

Anyway I think I found a gun I'm settled on. It's a Springfield XD subcompact 9mm. Since this gun is for one purpose only, a tool for self-defense and nothing else, it meets all the categories which are important to me. I do not intend to go sports shooting or blowing up watermelons or any of that shit. Just something I can become proficient with and save my life one day.



This gun has a number of features which really speak to a technology oriented person like me. The gun is just so well thought out. It has dual safety's, one built into the trigger itself, and the other into the grip, instead of the traditional hollywood style side safety switch. You never have to actually disengage the safety, it's ready to fire when you hold it, yet it will not fire without you pulling the trigger. The safety is always on, but always off. It's a 9mm which is plenty powerful. It's small and lightweight, yet heavy enough to inspire confidence. You can easily conceal it, and keep it portable wherever you go. It has an underslung rail for adding attachments like lasers and tactical light. It has a very simple breakdown/cleaning procedure. It has a "round chambered" indicator so you never have to worry about if there's a live round in there or not. The firing pin slides downward when the safety is on so that it cant fire if you drop it on the ground, or even throw it. It has a 16 round magazine which is kinda nuts, but I guess you cant complain about having too much ammo. And it's pretty damn accurate for such a small gun.

Going to test shoot a few more before making a decision. Today I fired a glock 9mm but didnt like it at all, despite being halfway decent with it. Sticking to the 9mm class of weapons since they have plenty of stopping power, but arent too unwieldy to shoot.

Sweet, now next time you decide to act like an idiot on the roads and succumb to petty immature driving antics, you got a gun to BUST A CAP in case psycho's 'be gettin' psycho' yo

I honestly can't believe I missed your last blog entry, I had to read it after reading this. To all those who haven't read it, I highly recommend it. Entertaining as hell.

BTW - nice shooting

Just flash them and seduce them with your wicked good looks. Sex solves everything, EVERYTHING.

Buy a .40; dead men tell no tales. Seriously, last thing you want to do, in the event that you have to use your gun, is leave that person alive. "I wasn't breaking in, I was just lost." "My car broke down, I was just looking for help" etc.

I click buttons.

Yeah, you'll probably feel all high and mighty until you run into a Wizard using "Protection from normal Missiles". Then you'll be rendered useless again.

100% serious; most cops will tell you the same thing: people will say anything to appear as the victim rather than the criminal.

For example:

Shithead gets into your house through an open window, you shoot said shithead in the shoulder and he runs off tells police that he was invited in by you when his car broke down and you shot him. Your word vs his, now you have to get a lawyer, lose time at work, money, have your gun taken away, potentially lose the case, get charged, etc.

Scenario 2: you dome rock said shithead, it's your word vs.... ??? Closed case.

I see why you wouldn't understand: Hungary has shit gun laws and you may not have been around firearms enough to come to understand them.

Hungary:
"From now on, would-be firearm owners will be compelled to undergo extensive psychological testing and spend at least three years in a ‘sport shooting club’, before gaining a permit."

If I was a criminal, I'd move to Hungary to break into homes: Just gotta dodge knives and pellet guns? Sick.
