"but they told me that I am a legal adult, and I should have an idea of what is legal and what is not, and not to pull any funny stuff or I will be shot. they don't wanna have to do that, but that doesnt mean they won't do it if I'm a threat. so, come clean, and don't do anything stupid. they also reminded us of the zones of fire, and to not point a gun at anyone. aiming and shooting the aks-74u with precision at the target was really satisfying, and the guy that was talking on the loud speaker inside the box instructed me on how to operate the firearm: i don't remember everything because it was over a year ago, but he told me the name of the firearm and the three functions safety lock, automatic, and semi-automatic, he told me how to hold the gun with the stock, and without. he suggested I used the stock. it has a little bit CONT."
of a kick to those not used to it. and all the gun demo comers had to use the stock.
they told me that it was on the safety function, and to set it to and fire it with the semi-automatic function, then fire it with the automatic function until the clip went dry, then I was told to put it on safety again. then I put it back in the bullet proof box which was electronically locked again. then when I got out, I went back into the spectators' room where there were people with binoculars and telescopes viewing the show (one guy brought a glass rifle sight to watch =3). I saw an officer go back into the booth that I went into and get the gun and take it to a locked room to reload it. anyway, I spectated for a bit, went to get some food from the smorgasboard, then went home
it was a little past sunset by the time I got home. CONT.

my dad got pissed about me not being home before sunset, and pinned my head against the wall by my face, and gave me a firm talking to about being home by sunset. he also said that I was grounded until thanksgiving. but I didn't give a damn.
I GOT TO SHOOT A MILITARY ISSUE RUSSIAN KALASHIKOV ASSAULT RIFLE GODDAMMIT!!!! that makes up for being grounded for a few months.

aks-74u FTFW (for the f-ing win).

"this thread is on what the name of the thread is: weapon of choice, any weapon at all. a main weapon, up to three sidearms, and a melee weapon."
within reason of course.

still, I like the feel of the aks-74u, so when I chose a weapon for this thread, I chose a weapon that I liked based on personal experience without regard to reason or how pheasable it would be to maintain that weapon. c- (-.-;) ah well... go figure... : P

"That was... informative, I suppose. "
I enjoyed the part about the bullet proof glass box and the range officers at the government run range with orders to shoot to kill if you did something stupid.
The Smorgasbord was a good touch, as was telling about getting in trouble with the father for geting home after sunset ! ....all in all a real classic

Actually the ammo the AKS 74U ,or as it is more popular called in the USA" The Krinkov" shoots, 5.45 X 39 is pretty common.
Right now it's about the cheapest centerfire rifle ammo you can buy. Shotgun News has adds selling it at $149 for 1080 rounds

Yeah,shotguns are perfect for z-day,i'd prefer a non-pump action shotgun,tactical or auto or combat shotguns,since its easier to keep on shooting,and i like magnums,they have a huge stopping power,as well as the desert eagle.Same,:)

"Yeah, that's what I meant.

However, the best weapon is always the one you have. You've got a...what?...one in 1000 chance of coming across one (with about a one in 10,000 of finding one with a suppressor or grenade launcher.)
Do you have any experience with it?

TechCity, are you joking or being serious?"
Im serious.I'll take whatever i can carry.

*Mature Response*

I personally would be happy to have anything on me at that moment. One thing I have discovered during my time here is my own desire to survive. At any moment you could be faced with a survival situation. It does not have to be zombies, heck you could wake at 1am to take a p*ss and find a crack head in your kitchen. What then? Not every single person on this site has the option of a kahr or a keltec in the pocket of their pj's. Then again not all of us go to that extreme to begin with. Not everyone owns a shotgun, or even a utility/hunting/pocket knife. If I was put into that situation where my firearms would not be the quick fix my will to survive would be my greatest weapon.

No matter the situation I do not intend to be like the screamin chick in most horror movies that gets cornered and chopped up. Guitars, chairs, picture frames, or even this laptop would make quick tools for bludgeoning someone or somethings skull. Sometimes when it may seem you have no options you cant give up, you gotta make sh*t happen.

Now in my reality if im at home I am partial to the Mossy 500 with 3 inch 00 buckshot. I also keep one in the pipe ready to rock. Most people will say that the sound of a 12 gauge racking will make most intruders run away. I say this " If someone enters my home I dont want to scare them away for that would be them leaving on their own terms. They will leave under my terms." Some people call that arrogant, others call it barbaric, some even go further to say I would be cast into hell. To me its just my natural reaction, after all this preparing and practice, I would hate to take the life of another intentionally or unintentionally but in matters of protecting my family or me I would in an instant.

My next purchase will be a puzzle piece because I am looking for the perfect fit for me for EDC. I am currently looking at the Glock 30 SF's and I am hoping it will be my new CCW.

zeldagamerDX6 has posted the most ridiculous info that I have seen on this site in a while. Exactly where is this "government run range with orders to shoot to kill if you did something stupid."

I would love to see the general public reaction if someone was on a government run range with orders to shoot to kill if you did something stupid, and someone was actually shot and killed for not pointing the weapon downrange, or something equally stupid.

it's a shooting range where I used to live. it's not govt. run. it just had a one day military weapons demo, where, if you were at least 18 yrs of age, you could shoot a military firearm for a $29.99 admission fee. they needed the police there in case it got out of hand, or if some psycho stole a military firearm. and since when did I say that the shooting range was govt. run? I said that the military firearms that were at the demo were govt. property, and that stealing them was a federal offense. but i don't believe I recall saying that the range was govt. run.

as for the general public reaction, I used to live in a highly republican boondocks sort of setting. in the country the police are not stupid. you've got the police force in a nearby larger town, but in the boonies, you've got the sheriff, and the game warden, and the DNR officers, besides, the person was directly instructed not to point the gun at anyone, even in the glass box AND when the safety is on. when you instruct a person directly to their face not to do that, and they entirely disregard the firearm safety rules you told them, then they are a threat to everyone around them, and will and should be treated as such. it's people that have no concept of firearm safety, that have no business owning, let alone shooting a gun.
