I'm sorry but to me it just sounds a bit like showmanship. People here have suggested pistols and shotguns that would be useful and safe to both yourself and bystanders and you choose a .44.. Next you state that you don't care about collateral damage you just want that 'one shot, one kill' and feel like Dirty Harry...

Same as the weight loss thread where you're just trying to go to an extreme length when the people in that thread posted safer, more efficient and more effective means. Why post the thread asking the questions when you're not even going to take into account what people are telling you, let alone answer points or make rude suggestions when people question your motives?

Anyways, just wanted to get that out there since everytime I read the last thread and this one I just chuckle a little bit. I'm sure it'll be the same for the next thread but we'll just have to wait and see.

So that is from someone who is in industry and is at school and is carrying out ground breaking extremely advanced experimental scientific research all at the same time:hmmm:
Confusing eh
Given the simple maths and logic problems displayed I would say that probably confused schoolboy with mental issues is the correct version:yep:

Fixed.

So what if thats what interests me? In my spare time, instead of playing sports, I conduct research and development. Instead of telling everyone I know about the latest gossip, I'm taking to my friends about new sets of chemical and physical bonds between components that create and interesting set of properties.

Problem with that?

And - I am taking into account what people are telling me. Whether or not it SEEMS like it - I am. This thread is also confusing - so many people saying so many different things.

Now - how does everyone feel about the M1911? Is it solid? Does it have some decent stopping power?

And - my state really DOESN'T care much about what kind of damage I do to my own possessions. I could take explosives and blow a hole in my garage without it being a problem (exaggeration). Hell, last year I shot off a fireworks mortar and it failed. Lit the back field on fire - I put it out - no problem other than that I smelled like smoke.

*Goes through 11 page thread... Sees its been mentioned about a dozen times..*

Sure seems like it.

M1911 has a lot of good reviews, it's solid, rugged, and reliable. The design hasn't changed much at all over the hundred years it's been around, which means if it ain't broke... :03:

Gee man.....get your self a Glock or other 9mm that feels comfortable do some good training and thats it.
That's most practical convenient and "fun" solution.

If you are into Dirty Harry thing that maybe understandable because you are young but its not practical actually pretty useless bull.

Alright Mr. Internet smart guy :up:
the more you sit there and brag about these things that you aparently do,
the less people believe you.

To be honest - not really into Dirty Harry - just Clint Eastwood

Fine... just don't trip with it too much.

Woh!

I thought i was the only one thinking of the Garand and the M1911. seems im not the only one who appreciates such weaponry :DL. but, true that the bullet would cause some damage. not as much as a shotgun perhaps, fired at medium range, but itll put a hole in the wall. its better than getting shanked by some lowlife in black fatigues, who proceeds to run around the house like a child in a candy store and steal all your stuff.

however, a German Shepard, or another active dog would also be a must-have. hell, it could even be used (somewhat) in lieu of a weapon, granted he doesnt somehow get the upper hand before the dog severs his jugular. if you simply dont want a firearm around, get 2 or even 3 German shepherds. a man has to be one HELL of a trooper to take on 3 dogs at once, and win with his life or even most of his innards. German shepherds can be extremely vicious and will tear you up.

I can patch a hole in drywall - but not in my throat.

Yet simple math and logic is beyond your ken:yep:

BTW which is it? your spare time that is.
Is it your spare time from school your spare time from work or your spare time from the super high tech ground breaking research project?
don't tell me you have invented time travel:rotfl2:
Also, this wife who doesn't want you to keep a gun under the pillow, does she get on with your classmates?
