YUP!!

.....2 shots from my 9mm Beretta fired over the approaching vessel's cabin
caught their drunken attention!

That 9mm is a pussy gun... I hate semi-autos. I think the 9mm is a pansy
caliber.... I sold the gun a week after I bought it and learned to field
strip it blindfolded. Give me a big caliber revolver anyday.

Ya got that right, Matey! I'll take my Dan Wesson, .357, double-action, six-shooter
with jacketed hollow points any day. Alternate FMJ's for penetrating body armor
and you have a man's weapon.

I concur.... but favour the .445 Supermag by Dan Wesson.

Good point. One hand free allows one to re ignite their cigar should it go
out for some reason. The 9 mm is an enemic round, suitable for use by
women.
Try the 41 mag. Make certain you practice quite a bit.

What is the best gun for yachting? The shotgun can blow large holes in
fiberglass, shoot flares but can be cumbersome. The pistol is easy to

handle
but must be of a large caliber to be effective. My favorite is the good

old
7.62 mm assault rifle. Great range, fire power and visibility - strikes

fear
into the enemy. They tend to get heavy with 40 round clips, but nothing
beats the feel of an old friend pressed against your shoulder and cheek,

the
smell of powder, the ring in the ears and of course the toasty warm

barrel
with the odor of gun oil and solvents!

I personal recommend an HK 91, or a Springfield Armory M1A or M-14. With

40
rounds you are bound to hit something! Hoo-yah! Ah-men!!!



Waste of ammo. For close work, the Browning 9mm is good. I'm a Colt
.45 man, myself. The HK 91 is good, but the M1 or M14 are too heavy.
I don't favor an automatic rifle for close work. I prefer a pistol.
An advantage of a pistol is that it leaves you one hand free for
looting.






Pathetic Earthlings! No one can save you now!

41 Mag? Sounds pussy. And a waste of money. I prefer a 45, but I
also like to carry a .357 Python for a backup.


Bwahahahahahaaaa.... .375 Mag is the Lady's handgun of the Mag series.
Figures you'd like it.

I disagree vehemently on your caliber choice Capt. I have always found the
..375 to be a "Lady's Round" in the Magnum Family..... Placed to appease
the Sunday hen-piecked plinkers who needed a "mag" for the "lil'Lady"

The Dan Wesson .44 Mag or .445 Supermag is the way to go here I think.
Magna-ported with the rifling twisting the grip into your hand. The
adjustable flash gap and double action with a shroud tensioning the
barrel..... solid sights.... interchangeable barrels allowing you to carry
a 3"snub-nosed to a 10" barrel and can plonk rams at 200 meters on
Silhouette..... straight out of the damn box!

I like a .22 cal. Raven with the serial number scratched off with a
dull nail. Can plonk a havalina at 5 yards and **** em off right from
the get go.

..44 magnums will cause one to go deaf in short order.

Hope you wear ear plugs or ear muffs when shooting that cannon.

A .357 with a hot load packs more punch than a .44 mag with a
regular load. The muzzle velocity is so great that it has far more
range, too.

Shoot it in the rear leg, low near the hoof..... when it goes lame you only
have 3 more legs to nail and walk in with the hammer..... pork roast!

BTW- got a silencer on it?

good until the barrell gets hot and melts the scotch tape.

You seem frightened of the Big Scary BANG! ???

You'd better review your data Capt. ....it's faulty.
Look if you're too feeble and effeminate to handle a man's caliber... just
say so!
Oh yeah... I guess that's basically what you said!

.... and I bet you flinch at the trigger. Did they supply you with a purse
for that .357 or did you have to buy a garter belt??
