Off Season Lets Talk Guns, Part 2

Been a while since we had a guns n' ammo discussion.


Some of you are AR shooters Im sure. Im looking at a Colt 6920. Will be my first AR. Picked up a Glock this fall and really enjoy shooting it. Any feedback on that weapon?



Anyone else been in a buy/sell/trade mood with hardware?

Not surprising.

Cabelas pricing doesn't make sense. Most of the time, their used guns cost way more than than a new one. But every once in a while you can find a steal.

My uncle(passed away in 2000) originally bought it new in 1952. He and my dad(passed in 1994) were army buddies stationed together in Germany in the mid 50s. Long story short, dad loved the rifle and hunting yotes with it and my uncle. That's how he met my mom and my uncle gave it to him as a wedding gift . Up until yesterday it hasn't been fired since 1978 when I was 12 hunting yotes with my dad and uncle.

Good choice! I also like the .220 swift, the 22-250 and the 25-06 for tipping over yotes.

.22 Hornet has a lot going for it - not the least, some of the 'names to conjure with' involved in it's development. Whatever y'all shoot - git them danged coyotes. Git 'em good. http://www.shootingtimes.com/ammo/am...hornet_082306/

What do you guys think of Hi-Point?

Getting my son a pistol for Christmas but not looking to spend a lot.

Cheaper than Dirt has this Hi-Point 40 S&W for $160/

https://www.cheaperthandirt.com/prod...52334340108.do

I've heard both good and bad about this gun maker.

While I have never owned a HI Point I have heard the same bad and good. It will go bang when the trigger is pulled.
I think the bigger question is how old is your son. If it is his first gun get him a 22 because they are more fun to plink with and cheaper to shoot. If it's for personal protection get him a quality dependable handgun something he would be proud to pass down.

Joseph Enouy’s 8-cylinder, 48-shot percussion revolver, dated 1855


The Enouy revolver was a design patented by Joseph Enouy of Middlesex, England, who received British patent #1359 in 1855. The basic revolver was based on a transitional revolver design made by Charles Osborne in 1845. The innovative part of Enouy's design was the compound magazine design. In this particular example, each revolver cylinder is capable of holding 6 shots and there are 8 different revolver cylinders attached to the compound magazine wheel, thereby giving this weapon a capacity of 48 shots.

As you may have guessed, this weapon is very heavy, unbalanced and unwieldy at the same time. Due to the magazine wheel in front, the user can't carry this revolver is his pocket or in a holster either. This firearm design was not a success and Joseph Enouy didn't seem to manufacture many of them either. In fact, most of the pictures of this firearm available on the web are from one particular revolver made by Enouy, which was once owned by a Mr. Vokes. As there are no records of this revolver being manufactured and sold commercially, it is possible that the above example is literally the only one that was ever made. It is fortunate that we have a record of Mr. Enouy's patent application available.

And now back to your regularly scheduled program

Oh my that thing is a monster.

I know what you're thinking: "Did he fire forty-eight shots or only forty-seven?" Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I've kinda lost track myself. But being this is Joseph Enouy’s eight-cylinder, forty-eight-shot percussion revolver, the most unwieldy handgun in the world, but would still blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya, punk?

I've never heard anything good about a Hi-Point. You'd be better off spending a little more cash on a higher quality gun.
