here i go again with the PAFOA link. lol. read everything. also check out paopencarry.org

it's awesome that you want to get a gun, just make sure you do LOTS of research first. if you plan on carrying, get yourself mentally ready more than anything. there is a sh*tload of information out there and it takes some digging to find it all, but it's definitely worth every second of the time you'll put into it.

getting a PA LTCF is extremely easy (in most counties). Do a search on PAFOA for your county or visit the specific county section at the bottom of the main forum page. you should be able to find the little details about how your particular county does things. in my case, i parked my car.. walked into the police station where Berks county was holding a remote LTCF day, handed the guy $25, and walked out exactly 9 minutes later with my freshly printed LTCF.

my little saturday night special was a hand-me-down. I still haven't fired it. I'm sure it could use a cleaning and oiling of the barrel. It hasn't been fired in at least 6-7 years.

I don't even have any ammo for it, it'll take anything but .22 magnums. I'd like to get something a little bit more intimidating for carry.

Guns are good. But should ALWAYS be kept away from kids. And me being a Ex-firefighter/emt i know the results of having a unprotected weapon in the household

Scapegoat · 04-13-2006, 04:07 PM

mine is in my underwear drawer. But 've got no ammo...so if anyone breaks in, they're getting a face full of metal

Go with an Ak for sure for the assault rifle! Absolutely flawless. Ive seen them kicked around in mud and picked up and fired like nothing ever happened. I also have seen a test where one was dropped from a helicopter onto pavement and picked up and fired. And the price ranges are pretty vast, so pretty much anybody can afford one. From $250-$300 for a Romanian AK. It gets progressively more expensive as you go higher quality (i.e. Egyptian (known as the Matti), Chinese, Russian). Sorry to go on and on, but to fire one of these guns is an awesome feeling, good stuff.

P.S. and trust me from experience...AK's are far superior to the American M-16 (AR-15) in terms of dependability.

BradC, the target was at 20 yards.

Roto, here is a link to classic pistol...

If you are looking to rent, you WILL save money doing their rental package for $49.99.

I've also heard of nightmares and acquiring your CCW in Philly, if you go to www.pafoa.org some of the members can walk you through it.

Lastly, I just got back from placing an order on an FS2000 with factory optics/1.6x scope. I also ended up ordering another lower with the grim reaper on it

. The FS2000 standard seems to be a pretty rare item, only 5 of them got shipped to the FN distributor last month for 60 different FN dealers, so I'm just going to need patience to wait for it.

Good start boys. Yeah a 22 will still scare someone but probably not injure them the way you want someone who is coming to kill your family injured.

I'd prefer to give someone brain damage than kill them.

Well ok if you hit them in the head with a 22 yeah it may hurt but say you hit a guy in the arm with a 22. He is gonna be hurt but if he is big and angry it is not gonna put him down.

if I have to shoot someone, specially with a 22, it is not going in the arm

This is why my CC weapon is a S&W 40VE..

that's got more than enough stopping power to make someone think twice about breaking down my front door.
