January 12th, 2008 at 6:06 pm2) Mk-19

3. I loved shooting the M1 garand. It is truly a mans rifle; the way it kicks, the power it puts out, how heavy it is!
2. I love any revolver type pistol. .357 magnum is my fave. I love the power combined with the single action. Makes for really accurate stopping power.
1. MK19 is the pinnacle of weapons greatness. The whole experience of the quickly increasing “tunks”, the explosion, and then the subsequent wall of sound “woosh” oh goodness, i need a cigarette
January 12th, 2008 at 6:10 pmoh sorry, for those that dont know, the MK19 is an automatic grenade launcher.
January 12th, 2008 at 6:11 pmFunny you should choose that picture. The model 29 is the greatest pistol of all time.
I love my Barretta Stampede .45LC.
My favorite DAA is still the 1911a.

You’re right, the Remington 870 is a lot of fun to shoot, too…can’t believe I left that one out earlier! There’s one in the safe right now - should have remembered it.

Hmm, out of the weapons I’ve been issued, used or owned
it would depend on my role with the team…
The weapons I enjoyed using the most are the same ones I would have reloaded my own ammunition
1) 7″ kbar or my mk-3 (for up close and personal)
January 13th, 2008 at 7:43 am2) Rem 870 3″ mag with a modified or open choke barrel (for
up close and personal)
3) m16a2 w/todays optics as my DMR
4) My own Remington 742 modified w/ todays optics for (shoot and scoot)
5) m60a1 105mm with a behive round
6) nike gels in case I have to run like hell
Mine have all been for hunting, so here goes…
Sheridan Silver Streak - Dad said it could not do anything but first shot killed a rabbit from 20 yards with a shot up the ass.
Marlin 20 gauge, bolt - killed my first goose, what an orgasm. A very sentimental moment for me.
Remington 1100 12 guage - a lot of waterfowl dropped with this one. Lead shot was still legal then. Sure helped when I shot in a high arch and rained lead around a guy who scared off a large body of geese that I had been crawling up on through a wet rice field for 500 yards and had less than 30 yards to go to be in range. That sorry sack of shit ran like hell. Only man I ever shot at but he damned sure deserved it and would do it again in a heartbeat.
Remington 870 Super Mag - got to love the 3-1/2 mag shells
First three are the favorites, they broke my virginity in three different ways. As a weapon though, the 870 is the real favorite.

5) M1911A1 .45 ACP pistol (mine is a Rock Island Armory make)
January 13th, 2008 at 10:02 amI realized I have to put in two categories: Military and Hunting.
1) F-18
2) M-16/AR-15
3) M-14/M1A (If I didn’t have to carry it all day, I would put it at number 2).
4) MP5
