Midwest Gun Thread
Hey everybody this thread is to discuss your guns and what you shoot at. Lets keep this more about guns and less about hunting.
My dad and i use several different guns for a couple of things.
My dads-12 gauge 1187 for deer hunting with slug scope,12 gauge Benelli super black eagle, Semi-auto Rueger .22 cal with a factory scope, Savage arms bolt action .270, Savage 17 HMR.
Mine- .44 mag six shooter with wood stock and 6" barrel, Savage arms bolt action .22, 12 gauge 870 for deer hunting(i use the 1187 for trap).
I would really like to get a 45 ACP 1911.
So what do you guys have? What do you like about them? What guns do you want?

I have a Ruger 10/22 that I love to shoot paper with. I might try "small" game hunting with it this year. I got the TALO exclusive version with the stainless barrel and ATI folding stock. I understand there were only 2500 made of this model.
I just picked up a Hi-Point 9MM carbine a few weeks ago. I have yet to shoot it yet, but from everyone I have heard from they are a blast to shoot.
next purchase will be a 9MM handgun I think. I like the Ruger SR9.

I plink with my Smith and Wesson MP15-22 and love it.
Match grade barrell, identical to a M4. I've got 7 (25 round) mags for it, and a cheepie red dot thats got a 1 moa dot.
Its an absolute gas!

I would love a tactical .22. My girlfriend needs a gun and its either a 9mm or a sig .22 or something. Any thoughts? I like the 22's because they are stupid cheap to shoot.

44 with hogue grip is awesome to shoot, but empties your wallet quick! 870 my favorite pump action. Got a 40XD for carry, love all. Going to use my tax return on another semi auto, any suggestions?

as it sits, got a little over $400 into it. I think i am going to change the foregrip to a folding one so it fits into my case better.
there are some out there for sale still. look on gunbroker.com search for I-Tac.
it does draw a lot of attention at the range.
