dont get too used to seeing 12 oz on the bag..... If they catch on to what the Ice Cream makers did, soon that 40 oz bag will have 11.25 oz of chips and artificial nitrogen flavor added.

to be perfectly honest i dont want the gun to 'pack heat' or anything like that.... i just want a .22 to learn to shoot with... .22 ammunition is cheap and easy to come by that being my reasoning... and the 9mm is just to give me the expirence of shooting somthing with actual power... plus its a package deal

he told me but i've completely forgotten... it wasnet colt or any particulearly well know brand but he says they're decent guns and i trust this guy, i work with him on occasion so if they turn out to be crap i know EXACTLY where to find him... he got them at a auction for almost nothing and he's only selling them because i'm a friend.... both are new in the boxes (never fired) and both have good serial #s... is there a way to do a 'background' check on a gun to see if its stolen or somthing? i know it probably wouldent hurt anything but in case i do get say, pulled over on the way home with them... with my luck i wouldent be all that shocked...
i dont want to be a dumb kid about this so any oppinions or tips will be welcomed!

On your next trip to Florida, try that "Menthol" anti-persperant, It will give you that cool feeling you're looking for..........

A 9mm is not a good choice if you want to see what a "real" gun feels like.

IMO a 45 caliber is a "real" hand gun.

I have about 30 rifles and pistols all together and the Smith & Wesson 645 ACP is one of my favorites at the range. You should see the looks I get when I hang a body target out there and empty the clip on it...

The range usually becomes less crowded real quick for some reason.

well first off you dont want to get pulled over with a 9mm until your 21 or your going to jail, felony offence. But you can have the ran by the local police,sheriff dept, or state police and they will tell you if they are "hot" but you will have to take the guns to them so I would just take the .22lr.

if the 22 is a hand gun,or if he is under 18 and it is a rifle it is still a felony.

WOWthat is nice! what is the list of firearms you have?
I have a remmington 870 12ga and a marlin model 60 semi auto 22lr.
I am going to get a springfield 1911A1 when I turn 21.
Is ammo hard to find were you live?
