I've wanted a .380 since watching Harlem Nights. Shame a Colt 1903 clone doesn't exist.What calibers do you like anons?
>32 ACP>308 WinchesterLet me guess, you need more?>also you can handload 32 ACP bullets into your 308 to make 22LR-like loads for training children or women
>>65180314What about 22 mag?
>>65180324What the fuck am I looking at
>>65180300I CARRY 45, CAUSE THEY DON'T MAKE 46
I think they're all pretty neat in their own ways.
>>65180354We will never know.
>>65180833it was a dude sucking his own dick. not joking, that's what it was.
>>65180887It wasn't, it was from a different /k/ thread that also caused much confusion.
>>65180890Not him but I just remember it being nude and gay. We've been having this a lot lately, like a lot
>>65180897we never recovered from the brownie incident
I like .357 Magnum.
>>65180998>Today I learned that there's such a thing called a 41 special
>>65180811you cant say that
>>651803009mm>dirt cheap>readily available>15+1 capacity>proven, effective357mag>shooting it makes me smile>stout enough for the woods (non-grizzly)>could hunt with it if i wanted extra challenge
>>65180998>no .32 short, long, and h&r mag
>>651803007.62x39>short>stout>makes the gun bounce around a lot when you shoot it fast>not too hard to control>good enough for medium game, acceptable for dangerous animal defense and dangerous people defenseShame about the prices.
I don't have one currently, but it's .357. .308 is a close second. I like big feeling calibers that are easy to shoot.
>>65180754akshually it's called a 460 rowland
>>65180300
I have a .30-30 and love it, it's really all I'll ever actually need (hunting rifle wise), but man I really think .35 Remington is cool.

>>65180300.40 and .45 because I’m not a mindless Reddit sheep, or a female police officer.
>>65180300I like just about every caliber; most of them are useful or nifty in their own way.But my favorites are probably 7x57 Mauser, 30-06, 22lr, and .32acp.
>>65181951Incel detected. ywnb.

Don't shoot 'em much (the .41mag was the first pistol I ever bought, so sentimental) and the .44 Special stays at my dad's house in the night stand because he likes it. Really though, the only thing that matters to any shooter is finding something you like. I personally like stuff that has a fairly wide range of versatility, so most of my faves are pretty standard old-school fare. The only real exception is the .444, which I use specifically for about 3 weeks every year during elk season when they are in the brush. The .300WM goes for the rest of that season when the terrain is a lot more open. '06 or .308 for everything else and the .12ga Super is great for geese in steel-shot-only restricted reserves (also flings a shitlooad of buckshot for home security purposes).
>>65180300>Shame a Colt 1903 clone doesn't existJust buy an old Colt 1903? They were really popular back in their day, and they're still around, lots of them left (and also in Europe, where FNH made it as their 1908). You can still get one in decent condition for an agreeable price, and in either caliber.>What calibers do you like anons?I kind of like most of them. Questions of caliber is primarily application, and then you weigh that against preferences.
>>65182953If I just put a stiffer spring in it can I shoot hard cast buffalo bore out of it no problem? Or will the slide crack?
>>65181013It came after the fact because LEO bought into 41 magnum as a car stopper and couldn't handle it.>WhomstveI know for a fact Amarillo Police department issued them with full house loads. It was very "effective" based on the first hand account I heard..40 cal is honestly pretty American. We have a long history of using it and I don't think many other countries did aside from the 43 craze that hit Europe in the 1850s infantry rifles.>>65180314You MUST have a rimfire or 12 gauge fir hunting purposes. I'd like to shoot squirrels with fart loaded 32 but the laws are what they are.Plus birds need shotguns.

>>65183587Potentially, but why push your luck? It's an antique, you aren't gonna fucking carry the thing are you?
>Sees 9mm right there>No I want the one that's more expensive, weaker, and less common.
>>65184599What car do you like?
>>65185149Geo Metro
>>65184599And lighter recoiling because shot placement is everything, right 9mmfag?

>>651838235.56 is absolutely a black bear and elk cartridge. Check out the threads on rokslide of it dropping grizzly.
>>65185292>Check out the threads on rokslide of it dropping grizzly.I'm good thanks
>>65185230just get a .32 nigguh
