Buying And Collecting Guns Is Educational And Fun

By Jeff Strickland


A lot of people, when guns are mentioned, think about them in very different ways. Some of them will think about collections they have seen or know about. These will include antiques or items pulled off of the enemy while they were in one of the wars. There are others who will think about other uses such as target practice and competitions.

Some peoples minds turn to the gun control that is always being talked about. These are the ones that follow the political winds and pick up guns just before they are banned from purchase in the various states. They are also quite good at modifying the weapons they have so that the current statist attempt at controlling all owners of these Second amendment right guaranteed pieces escapes notice.

Information about the imminent survival needs of each member will be part of this discussion. One or more guns and what form they should take will be the most contentious issue. The final word, agreed to by all, will be that the preferences of everyone are to be respected and all bug out bags will have what is needed for survival if and when it comes to that.

Those who are or were in the military will talk about one of their favorite subjects. That will be the M161a and the AK 47 that is a civilian model yet is the same gas operated, air cooled rifle that has the power it needs in most situations. These are easy to break down, easy to adjust and just as easy to put back together with your eyes shut.

That 45 pistol those military back ground people had on their hips will serve the purpose quite well as they will tell you. It is as easy to break down as the rifle and, with fewer parts, is easy to assemble in the dark. The stopping power it has will make it one of the best handguns to have in the home or on your person should the need be there to defend yourself.

Most people will want to have a 22 rifle on hand whether they are looking for firing practice or into survival planning. These have a large enough, economic bullet for killing small game animals and can injure if not stop all people this side of zombies. There are many different guns that will accept this round and a flexible system of protection will include several of them in the home or bunker.

In June of 2013, a poll was conducted. The top 88 percent of the vote getting ones were some that many aficionados were not surprised at. The Glock was at the top followed by the Rugers, Springfields, Taurus' and the S and Ws. These popular ones have all of the popular calibers and stand up well to whatever is waiting for you out there.

There are more expensive weapons as well. Many people buy them simply because they are a significant piece of engineering and can use them for bragging rights. These will include the Mossbergs, the Barrett 50 BMG and others with all of the parts, magazines and scopes needed to fully appreciate their functionality.

The one weapon that everyone wants and does exactly what it is supposed to do in the shotgun. Regardless of what model you get or what you pay for it, it has a sound that is unlike any other. The clicking of a round going into place in a rifle or pistol makes a squiggly little sound. The sound of a pump action shotgun makes a statement. Everyone knows what that sound is and, if you are on the other side of the argument, it is not good.

The newbies in the discussion group will learn about a lot of different things. They will need guns for target practice and survival. They may need something for training on for the next competition or simply to have ready, just in case. No matter what the reasons, good or bad, they will gain an education from the established marksmen.

There are many places to get that education and all of it can start with that informal group. Finding a Federal Firearms Licensed dealer will bring into mind all of the rules and regulations. Talking with a few survivalists will also give that student a lesson in the nature of things as they stand in this political world of guns.
