Too cheap to buy 9mm and I like shooting at things. It’s also something the kids can use. Mantis was fun for a while. I still have the same problems with the bb gun as the real 19. ---

That’s like running over a carjacker because ammo is so expensive. That’s like driving to work because you’re too fat to ride a bike. I want more of these style comparisons, but cannot think of any ☹ It is somewhat underwhelming with the BBs. Its good that the kiddos can use it, but its really only good for 20 shots or so before I can watch the BB hit my beer cans and have to start aiming high. ---

Its like laying on your driveway and pretending to rock climb because you’re too cheap to go to a rock wall gym. Its like cutting up different colors of paper to collect because your too cheap to collect stamps. Its like drinking yellow colored water because you’re too cheap to buy beer. Its like buying an inflatable tube because you’re too cheap to buy a boat. Its like throwing rocks in your yard because you’re too cheap to play golf. Its like going going downtown to listen to a homeless person play guitar because you’re too cheap to go to a concert. Its like sitting on the shitting with a stick in the bathtub because you’re too cheap to go fishing. ---

Meh, there are nicer guns than the G44, ballistically speaking, but that is pretty badass. I would like to own a BB gun someday. ---

LoL I just snagged two STI 1911’s. The tactical 5.0 is a 9mm the Sentry is a 45. I’ll have to take a picture of all my 1911’s some time haha. ![sti 1](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/b/b/bb10e8f97f9e910098a49d20f1254397ab599ac0.webp) ![sti 2](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/e/c/ec66de2d75481273230ae698d8034ca34d8af498.webp) ![sti3](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/6/1/6160f82cfa5ee0f7bb356bba97292374720e4bd2.webp) ---

Got them off a guy in my 1911 club. He was doing some downsizing and I actually don’t have any 5" pews. So alas now I have two lol. Can’t wait for my can to come in and send some 9s out in my back yard. ---

I love 1911s but I have no desire to own one. Outside of plinking occasionally they would just be an expensive nightstand gun. ---

I wish I could shoot in my yard. The neighbors are less than 250’ but would probably not care. 56 acres behind me, but its not my property and a swamp 6 months of the year. I’m a trespass only kind of guy. For now at least. I wouldn’t mind a 1911. With a sweet leather underarm holster so I can pretend to be an 80’s detective that is only a few weeks from retirement. 😀 ---

Dude, try shooting a nice 1911… every single other gun will basically feel like shooting garbage. I sold all my plastic guns off. Also something amazing about a hand crafted, hand fit piece made out of beautiful materials. ---

Oh I’ve shot many 1911s, I won’t argue with their ability to bring a smile to my face. But for me a gun is nothing more than a tool, I can’t easily conceal/carry a 1911 so outside of plinking at the range and collecting dust it wouldn’t be wise for me to own one. ---

Yeah I only have carry guns, when I used to do cool guy stuff my G26 was my go-to but now I mainly carry my shield or bodyguard. I never saw the need to own a gun that I couldn’t use outside the range. ---

That is a fancy looking piece. My p365 with a sticky holster is the typical carry. I dont love appendix carry. I may just be fat and over sensitive. Tactical muffin top does make a p365/g43 disappear.
