I'm into guns, not really any certain ones I like a lot of different types. I personally own a S&W .38, a Marlin .22, and several shotguns. My dad has a lot of old guns, and I've shot several of them too. There's a huge range of sizes that I have shot.
We do some hunting and a lot of target shooting around my house.

I like guns. Mainly older ones. I personally think the late 19th century produced the best looking and working firearms ever, in terms of fit and finish and handling. Sure, the 20th century saw the advent of automatic weapons, but I still like the older designs.

I have several rifles - a .30-'06 Winchester Model 70 Featherweight for hunting, a .17 HMR Savage Stevens Favorite (rolling block, single shot) for plinking, and a Ruger 10/.22 for plinking as well. I hope to aquire a Ruger No. 1 single shot in .405 Winchester sometime in the future.

I only own a .410 guage shotgun but my Dad has a ton of firearms. I use a .243 for deer hunting (although I'm hoping this year to use my Dad's .44 mag barrel on his thomson-center single shot handgun, for some really close range hunting) I use his 12 guage for small game mostly, and sometimes one of his .22's, I'm also hoping to use his .35 Remington sometime for deer. My best friends Dad has an AR-15 ( the civilian version of the M-16) and I've shot that before, Tons of fun. My other best friend has a WWII Muaser I don't remember the caliber. That thing is fun to shoot propane tanks with. FMJ all the way.

My current holdings are a Remington pump(old) 12 guage and a Savage 110 .30-06. In the fall i will probably be purchasing a compact pistol. Dont know what kind yet but it will have to chamber one of the big 3. (10mm/.45ACP/.40 S&W). I was also thinking of getting a walther p22 as a plinking/carry pistol

yesterday my family and i went to the shooting range. now when we go shooting we pretty much take along every gun we have. my mom likes to shoot the Bersa Firestorms (looks something like the PPK that James Bond uses), she also is a great shoot with the 12-guage shotgun (ever see OO buckshot hit a milk carton full of water at i think 50 feet?). my sister loves the .22 maganum revolver and .22 rifle. my brother has a .22 semiauto rifle with folding bybod that he likes to shoot. my dad has a Russian Mosin-Nagant M38 (made in 1937) that he and my brother like to shoot. my brother and dad slao like to shoot the 375 Smith and Wessen maganum. i like to shoot the .22 rifles and i got to shoot my .45 cal CVA flintlock rifle. the flintlock is so much fun to shoot! i think the flintlock will be even more fun to shoot the next time we go if it is not windy. the wind kep blowing the smoke back at, it was also a little chilly as we frogot our jackets. here is a picture of my firing the flintlock.
