I am hitting the range this weekend (Sunday, I will not be missing the BG game) with one of my buddies and its got me thinking. What are the 5 coolest guns I have ever fired. Not too impressive, I sure some of you ex-military have had some fun!

#1 Barrett 50 cal
#2 BAR (Browning Automatic Rifle)
#3 M1 Garand (personnal collection)
#4 Wilson Combat 1911 (personnal collection)
#5 Rock River LAR-15 (personnal collection) (M4)

Desert Eagle 44 Magnum is quite a gun. My potato gun built with $3 dollars of material is really fun also.

AT-4 and MK19 were prolly the coolest. 120mm mortar is just fun if you get to see the impact. Everything in the military.

Total boner when firing as well. Thunk Thunk Thunk Thunk...Boom Boom Boom Boom! It is a whole lot of fun, I won't deny it. If you get the chance, grab it.

Ditto! Loved shooting "The Judge". Need to get one.

I know it shoots the .410. Doesn't it barrel the .45 too? Not too shabby for a home defenese gun either.

I've shot my 30-06, 12-, 16- and 20- gauge shot guns, a few different .22 LR and my uncle's AR-15. Also, a few various pistols and revolvers. I'll definitely be expanding my collection once I graduate from grad school starting with a Henry Big Boy. I love the lever action rifles.

It does shoot the 45 Long Colt round also.

I would say the one gun that I have that puts the biggest grin on my face would be the taurus raging judge magnum that shoots the long colt 45,410, and the happy face one is the 454 cassul. This is a 3 inch barrel version. I have never shot a barrett 50 cal so that would be cool.

That's how it's marketed, but it's a very poor choice for home defense. The .410 shot out of a such a short barrel doesn't achieve the necessary velocity to penetrate sufficiently (only 4''-5'' in flesh), and the shallow rifling of the barrel makes it extremely inaccurate when firing .45s.

Classic case of trying to do too many things in one platform and doing none of them well.

Yeah, that's why it's fun to shoot. You can rotate the rounds.

Yeah, I used to do that with people who were new to shooting with my 357 Mag. I would load 5, 38 specials and the last a Mag....always led to a good chuckle on my part!

LOL! That's what my dad did to me the first time I shot it....
