RE: looking for 4 new guns.
All that aside, that reminds me of myself when I first got into hunting, and hadn't hunted yet, came fresh out of my hunter's safety course. Man, was I itching to get out there. Reality sunk in, and hunting is so much less, but it is SO much more than what I imagined it was.

RE: looking for 4 new guns.
Just another post that screams out "Lookee me!" And, in promoting any reasonable discussion, has little to no value. But, it's not the first of its kind here. There ARE some people here who are trolling for attention more than they're asking for advice.

RE: looking for 4 new guns.
dang you guys are hard on the guy [:'(][:'(][:'(][:'(]
Depends on what you want. For a shock value for a rifle nothing does it better then a ar15. That will cost you 1000 to 3000 depending on what you want in the thing.
Or for a more practical rifle. a 308 sniper.
I gun on my list though at the bottom a .50 cal rifle.
As for shotguns nothing wrong with a Mossberg 500. plan to change mine over to home defense.
As for pistols i am looking for one two. i am thinking a glock in 45. or the beretta operation enduring freedom 9MM.

RE: looking for 4 new guns.
If this guy actually had the means to get 4 guns, I would say get an M1 Carbine, or a Ruger Mini-14, then a Winchester Model 78, I think, I believe it was in .348 Win, or some rare cartridge, but a good deer rifle.
Shotguns, a Berretta Xtrema2 for waterfowl, and then a Remington105cti for upland.

RE: looking for 4 new guns.

RE: looking for 4 new guns.
What a bunch of hens...mebbe the guy just won the lottery, has no clue about hunting or shooting, and doesn't have the literary skills via keyboard to ask questions "appropriately".
Could be an Anti, in trolling mode doing "research", could be a teenager tryin' to get a bunch of grumpy old men's knickers in a knot...just 'cause he can, or he could be a genuine clueless numbnuts in need of advice.
Sign is easy enough to read anywhere on the 'net, but this welcoming committee here just plain sucks...
The Prejudice is telling...........

RE: looking for 4 new guns.
well whatever the reason for the post - he has initiated 2 pages of responses...lol.
If he is a youngin, don't discourage him. Looks like he wants to get involved in our sport. After all, we didn't know much when we started either - right?
Heck, I started out with a H&R single shot 12 ga and a borrowed Win 94 for deer. I weighed about 65 lbs and that shotgun damn near knocked me on my butt every time I shot it, but I kept at it.
