Hello. I moved to AZ from CA about 10 months ago. So far I really like it out here. I get my kicks from off roading, camping, and many other outdoor activities so this is a fun place for me.
I dont have a lot of experience with firearms. I have shot a .22 bolt action rifle. That was fun. Felt similar to a bb gun. I have also used a 12 gauge shotgun both regular style and pistol grip. Cool, but not very fun getting bruises..maybe Im just a wimp
Well my birthday is next week and me and my gf have been wanting a gun for a while. I was supposed to get a 22" flat screen for my computer. We were having lunch together a few days ago and my gf wanted to go to some shop. It just so happens it was next to a gun store.. I ended up getting my bday present early. I didnt know anything about what to buy so I put my trust in the salesman. I told him my budget and my plans for the weapon. He recommended a Springfield xd. So I got the 4" service model 40 caliber. I havent shot it yet but I have spent way too much time in these forums. I plan on shooting it this weekend.
My reasons for getting a gun are as follows. Its my right,and I strongly believe in excersing your rights. Its when you stop using them that they are taken from you. A lot of people have lost their lives in an effort to protect our rights. Self defense is another reason. Although I dont plan on ever using it in that manner Its good to know I have that option.I wont be keeping it bedside though. I have a rottweiler and 2 boxers that sleep inside. They should, if nothing more, give me enough time to get up and get my gun from the closet. Who knows, after getting more comfortable with my gun that could change. I also plan on target shooting and possibly entering events in the future.
I plan on open carrying after I spend time getting to know my gun and have fully read all about the AZ gun laws. Im sure there will be times when I wear clothes that will conceal my gun so I plan on getting my ccw as well.
Ok Ill stop typing now. Thank you everyone who contributes to this site. I have learned a great amount already and enjoy observing everyones opinions and point of views. Ill see you around
