Author Topic: Getting a new handgun.  (Read 844 times)

This will be the first new handgun that I own, and I want it to be this: http://www.berettausa.com/products/model-21-bobcat/
Should I get it in 25. ACP or 22. Long rifle? Both cost the same.

25. ACP is a centerfire, so it is more reliable. But it is harder to come by and more expensive, it weighs more than 22. LR too.
22. Long rifle is a rim fire, so it less reliable, but is easier to come by and less expensive, it is light weight and does not have as much fire power.


Long rifle.

And you need a gun... Why?

to shoot the bitches that betray him duh

And you need a gun... Why?
Why not? I don't need a TV / Ipod to survive, but it's a nice thing to have.

.22 long rifle because cheap and why would you need extra firepower



And you need a gun... Why?

Guns are fun to shoot, just something about flinging a piece of this planet out of a machine at speeds that can destroy coke cans in a single hit appeals to me.


he's going to go emo and shoot himself
just WACHT!

it takes at least one bullet to take someone down in case of something like that ever happens to you, and i'm guessing you want that one bullet to actually fire and hit that person, so you should probably get .25.

i know you're not going to go around showing off a gun and getting into fights so you can shoot people, but just saying.

I have to be 21 to carry this around concealed, and I think 18 to Have it unconcealed. This is for target practice and plinking only, also it takes about four shots from a 22. in the chest to kill someone, and 2 from a 25. ACP from my estimate, so for self defense I would step up to 380. ACP or 9mm.

Extra range and destructive capabilities.

get .22 because why would you need extra range and destructive capabilities

sounds suspicious


.22 because the subsonic variant is like a mini jap kamikaze plane compacted into a bullet

get .22 because why would you need extra range and destructive capabilities

sounds suspicious

because when his lunch-money victims start fleeing he can gun them down easier
