The only reason they're still in business is their sole-source contract with the government for M4 carbines. FNH now makes M4s as well. I want this so badly  True story when I first got into guns for real when I was about 17 or so, I really thought I'd only want handguns (and an M1 carbine). But I got distracted by the variety of amazing rifles in existence, especially AR15s and SCARs and M14s and FALs and that sort of thing. Lost sight of handguns, and focused on what rifles I'd like (many of which I could not have); imagined ARs I'd build. Now, some years later, I have felt a strong re-emergence of my handgun desires. I have a .357 now; I've always wanted a Model 57 .41 Magnum like this one here because .41 Magnum is the MOST MAGICAL FAIRY QUEEN of them all. Writing this made me remember the four different occasions I have tried and failed to buy a Colt Delta Elite, which I now want again.  Gtab fucked around with this message at 15:22 on Feb 17, 2012 |

Insane Totoro posted:Why not? It was a legit question. I was wondering what made you pick one over the other. The ACR seems to have more teething problems and failed promises. While the SCAR is swimming along happily like a big stupid looking fish. daskrolator posted:Until I read the aussie part I was going to say I have one of those completely disassembled, fire control group and all, in a bag I haven't touched for 2 years.

Also, going through my gun picture folder is always bad for me. This guy made a few bad choices, but overall it is a good gun.

There's a whole bunch of guns I'd like to buy if I won the lottery or something but the only gun I want that I'd be willing to spend money on right now is a pre-lock 4" S&W 686.

Smith & Wesson is bringing back the 586, and while I haven't had a chance to handle one it really looks like the ideal double-action revolver for me. I'm also not entirely sure why I still don't own even one Evil Roy.

Gtab posted:Slide safety? Can't have it? Gotta be the ASP: The ASP has the exact same slide safety as the Model 39... because it's made from a Model 39. It's only on the left side of the slide. This was way before companies started catering to lefty weirdos. Also, that picture bugs me because the mag is sticking out. But I would love to have an ASP as well.

shoognite posted:Kriss, only because I don't own anything in .45 This is pretty much the only gun I've wanted because of seeing it in a video game. Sure it's kind of gimmicky but I bet the low bore access does actually let you just bullet-hose with .45ACP. Plus there's just something wonderful about as high-tech (both in practice and concept) a spacegun as possible using good old .45ACP.
