I'm going down to get the DE .50 on my way back from work today @ Turners. Thanks for all the reply's. Most of it just re-affirmed my subconsciously already made decision. I know the rounds cost more, but it's a friggin cannon and therefore worthwhile. I'll tell you guys all about it in 14 days!

COOL!!! I wish it was me! Not that I'll ever be caught in Southern Cali (Gun control is just so harsh there), but if I meet up with you, I'll buy the ammo for both of us!
I started shooting at 6 years of age. My grandfather and father got me out in the backyard and taught me how to shoot a .22LR bolt action. Of course I had to prop it up on a tall stool, cause it was too heavy for me to hold properly. I conveniced my mom and dad to buy me a BB gun when I was 9. I took a Daisy Safety Test in the Sunday comic page. When my grandfather died, I got the .22 bolt action. My Uncle also gave me my other Grandfather's Shotgun. Used to hunt all the time. So long ago... Then my love of firearms took of from there. I was an marksmanship instructor in the Army and Shoot competitively in College and in the Army Reserve. Mostly small bore and high power. I also used to shoot at local IPSC meets. Take the Deagle(as it's now been dubbed) to one of those and shoot it. Those are FUN!!!

Actaully I have been eyeing a .357 automatic. There aren't alot of them and the ammo is a bit on the pricier side, but it sure would be nice.
I would buy semi-jacketed hallow points. The gelatin tests were very impressive. Usually expending almost all of the projectiles energy within the block. I believe the California Highway Patrol has adopted this ammunition. |

I'm personally partial to a 12 gauge 28 1/4" barrel and a drop gun for home defense

For me a gun in the hands of the police is only scary if you're looking down the barrel, Been there done that.

Went shooting with my grand dad at 11, started playing D&D<--notice no "A" at 15...6 years in the US Army...responable gun owner since I was 12. So whats the big deal? ALOT of people own or use guns here. But since we hunt or target shoot and dont go on "Rampages" You would never know...The quickest way to find out though would to try to break into one of our houses....
