Pistol In A Rifle Caliber

[Irving]

Guns like that are created for a pretty small niche market. If you think they are cool, buy one. Don't worry about what other people think. It's a factory gun with at least some reliability and availability of parts/ammo. It's up to you if you want to spend the money on the purchase. It's not like your dedicating your life to reinventing the wheel for something with little to no purpose or something.

I want a Mazda Miata, but I wouldn't ever ask people on the internet if they thought it was a good idea.

So let me translate, I have never owned one I dont know what I am talking about. Oh yeah were did I ever say you only need one shot, besides my comment about a 340 grain 44.

Great (not sarcasm), I enjoy talking with intelligent people that don't agree with me... so pull your head out of your ass and instead of saying that I don't know what I'm talking about, tell everyone why you disagree with what I'm saying. Unless of course you just don't like me cause I'm giving good arguments to everything you've posted recently, then by all means run around saying I don't what I'm talking about without backing it up... its pretty entertaining

Oh and my bad, is this better for you?...

I know in Atrain world, less hits with a bigger caliber is worth more than multiple hits with a smaller caliber, but 9 out of 10 dead men agree that more rounds > bigger rounds every time.

Guns like the FN 5.7x28 and the ria 22 tcm

Again my bad, I thought you were talking about a handgun chambered in an actual rifle cartridge:



Since you're talking about things like the FN Five7 and your super-cool totally-new FN Five7 wannabe, its a totally different conversation.
I don't consider the 5.7 (or .22TCM) to be rifle powered cartridges. Sure, they may be designed to shoot out of a rifle, but so is a .22LR. They don't have near the power that a true rifle cartridge does, and are really just glorified handgun rounds. The only thing they have over other handgun rounds is velocity... other than that, they're just another handgun caliber.

Why are you acting like such a dick mcantar18c? Is all this attitude really necessary?

My thoughts as well. When I think handgun chambered in a rifle cartridge, I think .223 as a minimum.

He annoys me. He says things that are incredibly dumb (like saying that a .45ACP will drop someone as long as you can get one hit on em), and then when I disagree with him he can only counter with "you don't know what you're talking about.

Train, when it comes to hobbies or most anything for that matter money's always an issue even when you have some to burn you'll always be after more bang for your buck (no pun intended). When ammo is hard to find and costs a substantial amount more than the typical service calibers your toy will likely end up range toy. While range toys are fun and all, I'm a shooter who'd rather use the money on something a bit more practical.

That's pretty much exactly how I feel about you, but I don't act like as much of a dick. Maybe sometimes, but I try and tone it down because it is totally unnecessary.

If you think that it is appropriate to act like a total cock to someone just because you don't like them, you've sure got a lot of growing up to do.

Why does everyone just thank it shoots one kind of bullet. I am currently having mine fitted for a 38 super barrel, thats 3 different rounds out of the same gun
