getting drunk and shooting clay pigeons or birds with your buddies is the most fun you can possibly have with a firearm
>>
>>64319083
Pistols because I'm not a schizo larper ARfag
>>
>>64319083
Pistols. Rifles get boring way quicker.
>>
Pistols and pistol caliber carbines, no contest
Obviously 22lr rifles too, but that's like PCC tier
>>
>>64319100
This, I never have as much fun with rifles. Clays are fantastic and pistol drills are fun, I guess I'm not enough of a boogtard
>Oh my science I hit the paper slightly farther away I'm ready to fight against le blue helmets in le boog in le 2 more weeks!
>>
>>64319083
Pistols are a lot more rewarding because they are much harder to shoot well. Bump firing an AK into trash is quite fun though.

Rifles. I have hand tremors and it makes pistols a pain in the ass. Turns them into a timing game. Think of it like shooting snipers in a video game without doing the breath hold but instead of a figure eight it's fucking moon runes that are vaguely similar to the previous one but change over time. Have to finish the trigger pull right at the moment the sights line up through the tremor. I'm not a bad shot due to plenty of practice one way or another but it's just not my favorite.

Rifles are easy and I can get a better rate of fire on them too. Have yet to successfully bump fire a rifle but it doesn't really matter when my finger's plenty quick anyways. I'd like to give an FRT or Super Safety a try.
>>
>>64319083
I'd say the hierarchy goes
Shotguns of all types
Pistols of all types
FRT equipped rifles


Manual action rifles
Semiautomatic rifles
>>
>>64319107
based. I hardly ever shoot my ar15, always with the pcc and handguns

>>64319083
Rifles, shooting doesn't feel right without a stock.
>>
>>64319424
What do you think getting drunk means?
>>
>>64319083
It depends. I think my favorite gun to shoot is a good AK. I like the recoil and the noise, it is the peak firearm experience.

A USP is really fun to fire because the slide is so heavy and the frame so light, especially with some hot buffalo bore loads it snaps back and kachunks forward forcefully. Most other pistols are boring to shoot.
>>
>>64319424
You and or your friends will end up shooting someone
You're retarded
>>
>>64319083
I am far better with long guns than handguns. I need to shoot handguns more but i feel like i kinda hit a wall. I can put 15 rounds of 9mm on a paper plate at 30ft in 4 seconds but thats not good enough imo. Been thinking of buying a tisas raider to try something different than p10c and glock 19. I can shoot revolvers in single action very accurately but slowly and im absolute shit with double action

Hey kid just because you can't handle your booze doesn't mean the rest of us can't
>>
>>64319260
Absolutely. AR-15s are a boring workhorse gun for skirmishing. Don't get me wrong, that has practical value, even if it is mostly hypothetical for people who don't live in a war zone.
But the "fun" is just if you're big into customizing and collecting, not shooting.
Not even good for hunting deer, in fact bad enough that it's not allowed in some places.
>>
>>64319083
>Do you prefer shooting pistols or rifles?
shotgun is most fun, pistol and rifle can either be boring or fun depending on if you have steel targets and unsupervised ranges/private property.
>>
>>64320293
Getting so ass hurt being called out for being a drunk slob you post yourself being a drunk slob.

Lol, lmao even. You’re an effeminate faggot lmao
>>
>>64319083
I shoot better with a pistol than a rifle.
With them my crosseye dominance is less a problem.
>>
>>64320322
I feel kinda dumb. I have this absolutely kitted out rifle that's 100% the best thing I have in case a fight breaks out, but I genuinely find it boring compared to my SKS or my FRT PCC. What really stings is that the base rifle without the attachments is still more expensive than all the money I've put into the PCC and the SKS combined. I will say though, night shooting is sick and I don't feel like I wasted money, it just feels a bit dumb for putting so much money into something that isn't even my number 4 gun in terms of sheer enjoyment. Think I lost the plot somewhere
>>
>>64319094
there's also killing commies. you can have fun killing commies.
soon you might even be able to kill commies in your own country.
>>

>>
>>64319083
Rifles are way easier to shoot, I find shooting pistols to be more challenging and thus more fun. Also easier to see improvement from practice

>>64320379
You just need to get used to shooting offhand. Worked for me, I'm left handed right eye dominant. I shoot pistols left handed and like you said it's not a big deal, but for rifles I just got used to shooting right handed. It takes some adjustment but it's easier than you'd think once you get used to it.
>>
>>64320419
The real peak of challenge lies in either Olympic style or skeet. Both are way harder than they look and most tactifags write them off as boring but man is it fun to get good with one handed shooting and hitting a fast flying object
>>
>>64320293
At least drink something that's not natti... You don't have yuengling where you are?
>>
>>64320381
Don't feel too bad, just understand the value that rifle adds to your collection. Guns have value on multiple axes. It may not have been the best way to spend your money in terms of getting entertainment from your hobby, but if you have your fun guns and you have your other bases covered, there's nothing wrong with spending money on insurance.
Routine exercise and checkups cost less than cancer screening, but when you need that screening, you really needed it.
If you have a F-150 lightning but your daily driver cost half as much and is more fun to drive, it doesn't mean the truck was a waste when you end up needing it to haul something or to serve power to your house during a several-days-long texas grid failure.
>>
>>64320452
Yuengling is pretty mid, I remember people jazzing up the fact we were getting down here but I still prefer Shiner over it and I don't like Shiner
>>
>>64320465
>It's mid so instead I'll drink literally the worst swill in existence
>>
>>64320419
That what i'm doing. I'm good with a rifle but at the end i'm more comfortable with handguns, feel more "natural", "instinctive" to me.
>>
>>64319083
Shotguns
>>
>>64319094
not lying.


dove hunting is the best hunting and no one can change my mind. you just drink beer and smoke weed with your buddies in a field and you can each kill 12 to 15 birds each.
>>
>>64320521
How fucking dare you, Shiner is only third worst. Moreover I'd rather drink something local, if I can't do that then New Belgium Tripel is acceptable
>>
>>64319083
I like both but living next to an indoor range in an area that gets firebans preventing you from shooting outside means I shoot a lot more handguns than rifles….

Heard dat. Every season is dove season when I go do work on the family farm. If I see a few of those tasty little bastards sitting on a wire or flapping around I don't hesitate to go and shoot some lunch

Pistols>shotguns>rifles. Idk why, even small pocket pistols i enjoy plinking with maybe specifically because its harder
>>
>>64319094
This. Shotguns are where it's at.
>>
>>64319083
Pistols. Targets are closer so you get immediate feedback as to what's going on. They're more difficult to shoot yet are easier to use. If I had a range with steel targets I might feel different.

There's a reason basically no one shoots rifles stand up. It sucks. With pistols you don't need to drag lawn chairs around to have fun and get good.
>>
>>64320381
Some guns are practical tools, like your HD gun, or CCW. If you're a farmer you have something to blast predators or put down injured animals. That sort of thing. Those guns don't have to be cool or interesting, they're just tools like a wrench or a screwdriver; all they need to be is reliable so you can count on them when you need them.
Fun guns are something else entirely, it doesn't matter if they have practical value, they're an entertainment expense.
>>
>>64322864
>you don't need to drag lawn chairs around to have fun and get good
Perhaps you're doing it wrong. Shooting rifles does not typically involve dragging lawn chairs around.
>>
>>64322881
You shoot unsupported standing as your primary method of firing rifles? That's not the norm from what I've seen anywhere.
>>
>>64320419
>, I'm left handed right eye dominant
Same here. Eye dominance matters more than hand dominance. I shoot pistols left-handed and long guns right handed.
>>

We need to bring back cone-shaped tits

>>64322911
The bra fucks the boobies up. I thought it was just a cone cover but it literally reshapes the booba. It's gross.
>>
>>64322886
Prone, kneeling and sitting can be done anywhere. Most ranges have benches. I don't even know what you would do with a lawn chair. It would be a worse bench seat than an upside down 5 gallon bucket.
>>
>>64320738
>DUDE WEED LMAOOO
STFU faggot.
>>
>>64322948
So you either have to sit down or go prone to shoot. No thanks. Rifles suck.

sounds like you shoot only at old guy ranges, with benches and tables. A proper westerner goes to public land to shoot at garbage the last guy left or steel gongs you brought, and there are no benches or tables unless you bring them. You stand up and shoot rifles unsupported, which is still easier to get hits than a pistol, but is still challenging and thus rewarding when you get consecutive hits. Furthermore, standing and shooting rifles is better practice should freedom-related violence break out, because commies will break all the tables and chairs before you get there.

i go to an indoor range, it is quite nice

Black powder revolvers
Single action revolvers
Revolvers in general.

I also really like pump shotguns, but don't have a good place to shoot clays anymore since my range decided to convert the the shotgun area into a larp zone for ar tards.
>>
>>64319112
I like that the silhouettes are all black, adds a layer of realism to it
>>
>>64323733
Lol no one lives in bumfuck or is driving 5 hours round trip to shoot dirt. I have other hobbies.
>>64323764
>go to an indoor range
LMAO exactly what I was waiting for you to say. You literally punch paper at 25yd max.

Shooting supported at a bench IS the norm for 90% of rifle shooters out there unless you're an urbanite bugman shooting at indoor ranges for $50 a session LMAO.
>>
>>64323970
I have two different square miles of shooter-friendly state land less than 20 minutes away, one with about 180 yards and the other with about 150, and with some scouting I could probably find 300+ yards to shoot. There are no basketball americans. There is no range safety person telling you rules, nor do I pay money for the privilege of being told to follow rules. The toxic gases from shooting just drift away. I can pick up and take home any brass I find that I want to reload. I could hunt turkeys or deer there should I choose. Any arguments you may have that your shooting place and position is superior are merely cope.

Y'all allowed them to take them all away from you. You had rifles, you had the means to stop it, but you just sat back and whined and let them do it.
>>
>>64324017
That's cool I'm happy for you. Sounds like you're going to miss out on advancing in life due to your fear of blacks though. I live at the beach, have a spot I shoot at, hunt on thousands of acres of public or private land, live close to work, and pay no income tax.

Best part is. I can do all that AND buy a second house in whatever Podunk shithole you're from without even noticing it in my budget.

The either or mindset you have is poverty coded.

You should, because (you) own it just as much as every other free born American and they're trying to take it away from (you) and all the rest of us
