Anybody Else Like To Shoot?

Anybody else like to shoot in real life?  I have always liked shooting guns.  I do a little hunting but I enjoy just going out and plinking.  Shooting paper targets, cans and whatever other junk is laying around is a blast, pun intended.  Right now, I really want an AR15.  I have sold a bunch of crap on ebay and have the money for one.  It doesn't make sense to buy one because the ammo is so high right now and it is really hard to find.  The economical me is trying to talk myself into buying a .22 and turning it into an AR15 clone.  Not as cool but a whole lot cheaper and a whole lot cheaper to shoot.  Another part of me wants a pistol.  I don't need any of these but the urge for a new gun is strong.   Anybody else like to shoot?  Tell me what you are shooting.

you could reload, save a lot of money on ammo, but it isn't for everyone... An alternative is to buy your AR and get the .22 conversion upper. that way you can plink to your hearts delight and shoot the .223 when you can afford it. I shoot pistol, rifle, shotgun and black powder. Have tried most of the different competitions for each at one time or another.

I've got a BERETTA Beretta .40 cal, Walther PPK-S and Ruger (9mm). Love to go shooting any chance I get.

I shoot almost exclusively pistols. I'm down to 3 now: 2 9mm and a .357 Magnum. And for ammo, give Cheaper than Dirt a shot: http://cheaperthandirt.com/223remin_gf.htm I live about 20 minutes from there, but you can buy online, too. They're great and affordable. Flexible offerings from military surplus to foreign suppliers to name brand stuff. WOLF is a popular cheap brand...Russian I believe.

I've got a WWII Mosin Nagant M38 that my brother got me for Christmas. In the process of upgrading it to a hunting/sniper rifle. Also have a Stoeger M2000 semi auto 12 gauge that I use for clay target shooting and hunting. Looking at getting a pistol and a 10/22 next.

Got several rfiles and shotguns, and my new favorite Ruger .40 pistol. I'm getting back into shooting now as well, shooting skeet and trap, and thinking about getting into some 3-gun tactical.
