hawk45 Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 It's not match day .. and you aren't training.. just out plinking with some buddies.. what gun goes with you? Is it your open gun or something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyin40 Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 My favorite gun would be a 22. I would like to take my Open gun but you get a couple of guys messing around you can blow through 1000 rounds of ammo in no time especially loading up the big sticks.

VegasOPM Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Surprisingly my favorite plinking gun is my Glock 17. When there isn't any time pressure, I can do trick shots with that thing all day long. I don't mind loaning it out and I just tell them to pick up some 9mm ammo if they want to shoot it. The Open gun tends to digest too much ammo and I already put too many rounds through it in a year without help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyScrapin Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 22lr in any form: The cost of ammo is not a big deal and the gun isn't too expensive either. Preston Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug H. Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 You said gun, not pistol, my favorite gun to shoot is my dedicated .22 AR with EOTech sight. I like to shoot is so much my thumbs get tired of loading mags. My open Glock is getting alot more fun as I get used to it. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DyNo! Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Hell no! I only like hunting for super comp brass when I have to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usmc1974 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Hell no! I only like hunting for super comp brass when I have to. What he said Beretta 92 I take it every where any way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPatterson Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 NO. Usually a 22/45 with a Tactical Solutions comp barrel and C-More sight that way I can practice FINDING the DAMN dot. Two foot transitions are easy, 20 foot transitions are not. I do not make the drive to the range just for the fun of it. If I don't practice something then I shoud have stayed at home and dry fired. If I get bored practicing then I dig out a scope mounted Ruger 22 Competition with comp and try for 1 hole 50 yard groups. Can't even do it from a rest but that doesn't stop me from trying and springtime gophers are mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flatland Shooter Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Current Favorite: AR with CMMG 22 LR conversion. Give it some time and better availability of primers and that may change. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunut Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 My favorite is starting to be my 22 conversion (marvel from sti) on a single stack 1911 . thinking about a scoped one soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgtis108 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 When I start to feel a little burned out, I'll get my grandfather's Rem. model 510 target master(22 single shot) and shoot 100 22 shorts, at bottle tops. I usually feel pretty good afterward! That is my favorite gun to shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team Amish 1 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 10-round .22 revolver with red dot. burns through of .22's in no time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
werewolf45auto Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Big Yes! The Open Gun goes with every time I go to the range. Even if I go to accomplish something else the Open gun go's with in case I have time left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calishootr Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 used to be the favorite, but witht he higher costs of ammo, no...tho the comments on the public range about the 2 feet of flame coming out ofthe top ofthe thing is pretty funny like everyone else, I am all about the .22's steel challenge season is coming up so gotta gets to practicin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neomet Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Most fun? Hands down my Open gun with steel loads. It leaves me with a goofy smile on my face that lasts for days. Now if you include in cost, having to pick up SC brass, this, that, the other thing I'd have to say I prefer, oh yeah...... OPEN!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldrin Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 (edited) Yep. And the red dot is always a help for friends that are newer shooters. Edited February 22, 2010 by Aldrin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XD Niner Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Given my pathetic eye sight, yes my Open blaster and its red dot is my favorite. I'm not sure that's too surprising given that it is 5X more expensive than any of my other pistols. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimel Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 My Ruger Single-Six in .22LR if a pistol. My Remington Nylon 66 if a rifle. I grew up shooting those two guns. The Nylon 66 has well over 100K rounds through it and still runs like a top although the barrel will need to be sleeved one of these days as it is about shot out. I love my competition guns and I love to shoot them but dragging out my .22LRs from my teen years takes me back in time for awhile remembering the hundreds of jackrabbits and countless tin cans that were shot with those two guns. Ah...good memories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
