Do you own any guns/knives/swords?
 
Post any pictures or information about any weapons you own.
I posses a large quantity of firearms but next weekend im hoping to purchase a Henry 44 mag repeater rifle. (I have a new interest in the old west hence the sig and avatar). I also own a collection of about 34 knives ranging from mere pocket knives to shurikens (throwing stars). I have on several occassions considered buying a katana but i have talked myself out of it every time. Maybe at the gun show if i cant find a decent repeater.
Enough about me, show us what you've got.

I only have some knives there in the kitchen :P , but besides that i don't have anything like guns or swords (or not-kitchen knives) ... im not really friend of that kind of stuff, personally i wouldn't like to have a sword or a gun, i know all the bad things people can do with them if they have a bad day (including me)

Negativo, well we do have an air rifle that my dad uses to shoot squirrels. Yes I know what your thinking, but the pecan shells they through down from the tree stain our pool and clog up the filtration system. I do not support it though.

Txum_kali'weya 05-10-2010 05:00 AM

I have a BB gun.

Gunny 05-10-2010 05:23 AM

Well for guns I have an oldish rifle and quite a few shotguns for dove hunting. Id have to look at them to get the names though since I got them from my father.

As for knifes I have a few little collection switch blades, some old old pocket knifes from an old neighbor, and a few Nazi knifes from WW2. Also have a pistol from WW2.

Helicoradian 05-10-2010 05:55 AM

I have a couple shotguns and a couple handguns. And a really nice diving knife a friend gave to me.

Human No More 05-10-2010 06:15 AM

I have a D'k tahg :D
Been looking at a very nice sword I might get some time, but need money.

Also, getting one of the Avatar knives for my birthday :D

txen 05-10-2010 06:16 AM

About 15 firearms. Some old military rifles, a shot gun, a few hunting rifles, and a few hand guns. No idea on a number of knives, but they are just tools and not some kind of collection. Not been shooting in ages. I need to fix that.

Pa'li Makto 05-10-2010 06:16 AM

One of my friends had a blunt Samurai sword and a crowbar above her bed.
I have a stick and that's about all..

My kind of humour

There's a BB gun in my closet and a 6 foot katana-like sword hanging up on the wall. Bought it off some site for $100 a long time ago. Despite the cheap price for such a large sword, it is rather sturdy.

I don't have anything else other than some butter knives in the kitchen, along with everything else you would find in there.

Dreaming Of Pandora 05-10-2010 07:41 AM

I've got a really, really sharp pencil to fend off invasive bears. :P

My cousin has a samurai sword set.

That's pretty much the amount of exposure I've had to weapons.

Site 26 05-10-2010 08:02 AM

I have a sig p226 for defense, the neighborhood I live in isn't exactly the safest. I also have a balisong and kukri that I use mostly for utility purposes.

Spoiler: But THIS however is the most powerful weapon in my arsenal! :P

Do you own any guns/knives/swords?
 
I have a 9mm glock and a 12gauge hunting shotgun. Use the shotgun to shoot skeet

Apollo 05-10-2010 09:04 AM

I got a modified M21 sniper rifle with a lesser caliber barrel. I can easily modify it to shoot 7.92x57mm or 7.92x33mm. Although I never dare change from my 33mm. I don't want to pay big maintenance costs on it. I also got a big knife to quickly skin the deer, I like to keep the mess short and brief. Its the best I can do for my prey. (it's almost as big as Dundee's from the Crocodile Hunter, but it does the job swiftly. Very reliable)

I don't know if I used a dart tranquilizer that it would alter the composition of some of the meat, maybe even get myself drugged. That's the only thing stopping me from using it. Plus I need a bow, that would make things much easier I think.

I really want to buy a rifle for sport. Anyone have any recommendations?

Na'vi_supporter 05-10-2010 09:14 AM

I don't have any weapons, am afraid of having such things at home. The most dangerous thing besides kitchen knifes is 120mW portable laser by which I can make attacker blind if he allows me few seconds or minutes to aim his eye ... lol.

Yeh, it would look very cool because beam is clearly visible even in clean air, no fog needed :D. However I know one person who made damage to his eye by looking directly into beam for just a second ...so it's not always fun :(.

tm20 05-10-2010 09:45 AM

i don't have any in Australia but back in Japan at my grandma's house we've been keeping a katana that belonged to our family many generations back in the samurai period. I also have one but it's not sharpened because it's only meant for decoration purposes (it came with the samurai armour that is setup during a certain time of they year to celebrate boys)

Oh yeah, I also had a BB gun but I think my grandma threw it out :P

rapunzel77 05-10-2010 06:30 PM

I have a couple of swords: two katanas as well as two others that come with the set, a replica sword from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, a battle ready viking broadsword and a battle ready "celtic" broadsword. In addition, I also have a replica of sting and the shards of narsil.

That was not a smart thing that your friend did! Hopefully it wasn't intentional. These things have warnings agaisnt such things.

I still need to unpack them, lol :). Honestly, my problem is I don't have enough display mounts for them all so they are in my closet :(. I'll get them out some time and take pics of them :). I love my sword collection.

hmm, I don't think I've seen that one. I'm more of a history geek/nerd. What's the show about?

dude! Precisely that! The show takes the greatest warriors in history and puts them up against each other. They show the weapons these ancient warriors used, how they used them, and then puts them up against each other in computerized combat. Really neat concept really. For instance, they have done an episode that puts the Samurai up against the Ninja. I've also seen one that has monks vs. some tribal warrior I can't remember the name of. They also do current warriors as well, like Navy Seals vs. something.

OOOHHHHH, KEWL! That sounds like my kind of show :). I love Ancient and Medieval history, especially the battles and military tactics. I'm not much for modern weapons. I guess that is also why I don't have guns. I know what I would love to have some day is a trebuchet (preferably a miniature version). Those are awesome!!

Yes.
Remington 700 Sendero special II with heavy fluted barrel and a 6x20 Nikon scope. One of the best rifles I have ever shot.

Here is my most recent adition to my collection of firearms.
