I'm picking up a gun tomorrow for range/hunting usage and I wanted some opinions... Edit : I should add some facts... A : The .357 would be for hunting hogs, and it would be all close range... B : The SKS and AK could be used for either hogs or deer, but I'd imagine the SKS would be a lot more accurate... Options : 1 : Taurus 7 Shot .357 http://www.agentstepp.com/files/66B4.jpg 2 : SKS With a scope and 50 round clip (The one in the image has a 20 round clip on it) http://www.agentstepp.com/files/skss.jpg 3 : A used AK47 I can get locally with the full auto disabled (easy enough to enable again if I'm so inclined) http://www.agentstepp.com/files/ak.JPG They're all in my price range, I'm just hunting for opinions...

Oh my Godsteppman I had a dream and you were in it. It was like i was in a sorority house and there were a bunch of blond girls and me, the token darky but I wasn't dead. You were a murderer and you were killing all the white people but you didn't know I was there. When i woke up you went outside cause you though one of the girls had gone out. You used a knife and had relations with one of the corpses, eww you're nasty.

I use to use only a pistol for Big Game, then went to strictly Archery. The .357 is a bit light for Wild Boar...unless you stay in a Tree and get a spinal shot. Those friggin things have got a lot of dense muscle under the fat and they can take a slug and still slash you open before dropping. Not an animal that you want to Fuck around with. Upgrade to a .40 Mag or a rifle with at least a .30 Caliber slug.

Also hunted them with a Bow and carried my 9mm as a back up side arm. Never got one with a Bow....but I kept the head of the one I shot with a .22! If I hadn't shot it, it would have dug the tree up to get at me. What grain bullet are you using for hunting Boar with the .357 ?

i got me trusty PM 664GT. She's a .177 Cal (4.5mm) BB Repeater, Single Shot Pellet Rifle. with 4x Scope. :wink: :lol: really though i like it its great, not the best for hogs, but great for other vermin like squirrels, cats, mice, rats, birds, small hogs, your neighbor, etc. best part you can adjust the velocity, if you just want to scare something away, not kill it :wink:. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y10/beercandle/bb.jpg just sharing the love stepp :P. btw, i'd choose a rifle over a handgun any day :wink:

YOU CAN "BREAK 'EM IN" AND OPEN MANY WITH A FLIC OF THE THUMB. SOME COME WITH A LITTLE THUMB LEVER TO PRESS AGAINST. "FLICK KNIVES" AS YOU CALL THEM ARE NOT ILLEGAL. MECHANICAL OPENING KNIVES ARE. MOST STATES ALSO GO BY THE LENGTH OF THE BLADE AND HANDLE OR BLADE ALONE. IT VARIES WITH JURISDICTION

I'm glad the AK was sold before you got it. I got one, and they are not very accurate and your scope, if you use one, needes to be mounted to the lower reciever. Meaning ya gotta drill n tap it. It wont be very accurate after 100 yards anyway, unless ya buy an after market barrel. Do not use corrosive ammo, if ya do, clean the gun soon as ya get home. Otherwise you may forget too and have a hell of a time getting it apart. Been there done that, not fun.

Probably buying the SKS with a scope already mounted, I'm aware how much of a pain AK's can be, so I probably won't get one anytime soon.
scrape98Salvaged from archive31 Dec 2006, 16:58
if it has to be one of those 3 get the pistol. its the only decent thing you have to choose from. the ak and sks are fun guns to shoot and raise hell with, but neither one are accurate. if you want something to hunt with thats cheap, checkout http://www.hr1871.com/. they have some single shot rifles that are cheap and extremely accurate. i plan on getting the survivor model in .308, sooner than later, hopefully. as far as them being single shot if you cant kill it with one shot, you should stay out of the woods anyways. :wink:

You go to jail, your gun and yer car or truck will go to the Sherifs auction. A 5 rnd clip is all your allowed. Unless you are hunting wild dogs. There was no limits on them about 7 years ago, dont know if there is now of not. We went out with my AK and AR 15, both with 30 round clips to take out a pack that chased my brother up a tree when he was out in bow season. We perferated 7 of them fuckers.

Where do you hunt Stepp? My parents' back yard, and the woods towards the edge of town. My back yard consists of about 500 square feet of grass so all I could hunt there is squirrels. ;)
steppman2Salvaged from archive1 Jan 2007, 12:22
do they have neighbors? SK bullet has a good amount of travel. Yes they do...several miles into the backyard! ;) I hunt towards the middle, with at least a mile or two in between me and any houses, plus it's a natural valley so the bullet would hit dirt/rock before anything else.

My personal preference would be the SK, cause no way I want to be hunting boar with a pistol. Gotta get too close. Enough stories about hunters getting the wrong angle on the shot, and having it bounce off the skull, and just pissing the pig off, then the pigs having wild game hunter for lunch, with a mint sauce. At least with a long gun you have some range. Check out the hunting joke in jokes and pranks!

Just asking if it was legal! So if its not a pet or a animal on a owned land- u can kill yea :? The hunting regulations may be different down south. But around here we got different times of the year that a particular animal is legal to hunt. It is possible to hunt on land owned by someone with written permission. The landowner filles it out and gives to the hunter/s a form from the Conservation Dept. and its gotta be with you along with your hunting license. Get caught hunting on someones land without permission. Yer ass goes to jail, your gun and vehicle are confiscated, and you won't get them back. Yes thats tough, but theres been too many people hunting on private land without permission. Oyeah ta get yer hunting license ya gotta pass a Hunter Safety course. Its like 12 hours classroom instruction with an exam you gotta pass. Most of it is common sense stuff. Lastly, we do not just kill animals. We harvest them in as quick and humane way possible. So that there is little suffering on the animals part.
