Thanks for the reply Neph. I am researching a good fast access gun vault. I want one that will run on a circut as well as batteries. If the batteries die, then what? If I could hook it up to home power... I would buy it in a heartbeat. I am going to buy a vault before a gun though.

My cousin has a .45 and is taking me shooting this Saturday. My uncle is also going to come along. He has a 357 magnum. I will let you know how the shooting goes.

By the way, great thoughts as far as "Taking the mystery" out of guns for the Kids. I am going to bring my son, so that he can see what a 357 does to a canteloupe. Thats a great idea. Thanks!

Last time I checked a .50 BMG was still legal if you had a Class 3 license but then again I haven't checked in a while :P

@ Neph : you where kidding when you linked to that XD.45 from the springfield armory, right?
Actually I wasn't. The XD's I've seen in use have been utterly reliable. That's a bummer for your friend, maybe he got a bad one? Unfortunately HK's are generally really expensive here in the States.

JXP2307,

I'm a big believer in taking the mystery out of guns for kids even if you don't personally own one because there's a good chance there'll be one at one of their friends houses. I'd rather have mine know exactly what a real one can do and know exactly why they should stay the heck away from it.

I understand your concerns about a battery operated vault. One that uses a circuit and batteries would be ideal.

The FAL's are wonderful rifles - I'm thoroughly jealous catfreak! Is yours decked out like the one in the pic? Interestingly they can be had in .243 Win. and .260 Rem.

If you're accompanied by an adult you might be able to depending on the facility renting the guns.

As far as quick access gun safes go I know what I am talking about. I work in the wholesale security industry (locks,safes,biometrics, controled access, etc.) Get one of these http://www.amsecusa.com/hand-gun-safes.htm . American Security cannot be beat. Besides you are buying american made products, and if you own a gun I am guessing you are proud to live in the U.S.A.

Great link Distorded. I guess you'd know your own product better than any of us :)

Nice 1911 aabbccdd - almost 100 year old design an still one of the best!

Nice Smith Jizmak - I like those seven shooters. If I marry you would you buy me a Python too? I've lusted after a Python for years. I think they're by far the best looking DA revolver ever made. Can't beat the old GP-100 for strength though.

The Kalashnikov is one of the most durable, efficient and adaptable designs ever made. Many folks think they're ugly but when I look at one I see a beautiful piece of engineering.

The 500 S&W Magnum. I looked at one in my local gun shop and the thing weighs nearly as much as an ultralight rifle. Any handgun that comes with a sling from the factory ain't right. It'd be interesting to pop a few rounds out of one but I couldn't justify the expense especially since I found out the only elephants in Arizona are the variety waddling in and out of Cold Stone. I shot one in the ass once and ended up following the blood trail out of the Cold Stone, across the parking lot, through a Target then finally to a Lane Bryant where the rest of the herd was. Too much work for me.

The .500 caliber is a BEAST!
(Complete with stock barrel rifling is looks awesome too.)
The only problem with it I see is your shot going 'in and out'.
I want my shot to stay inside my target.
And in the chance I miss the shot wont endanger anyone else.
It would be nice to feel the recoil on one though.
