i gt some qs

doesnt carrying weapons around the town scare ppl off?
do u need any special certificate or license to own guns?


it is illegal to carry a conceiled weopon without a permit. and no its americans contitutional rights to own firearms. there are bans or restrictions on certain guns and what you can own. the gun is automatically registered to your name when you buy it but you have to be 18

Keep in mind most gun laws vary from city to city around the USA.

get a .357, some are versatile enough to shoot a .38 round so you can change it up. In my experience i prefer the ar-15 or an ak47. better act quick though, new laws are coming and because of that prices are rising

If its mostly for home defense obviously it'll be a shotgun, but then again for your first gun you can never go wrong with the classic M1911. Just my two cents.

BTW, what state are we talking about here?

Personally I am in Phoenix, and with the 2nd highest kidnapping capital in THE WORLD followed by Mexico at number 1! I definitely want to protect myself.

If its for home defense you are better off with a shotgun so you don't run the risk of accidentally hitting a neighbor if you ever have to use it. I recommend a Mossberg 590. Its decently priced and reliable.

On a more serious note, you would probably be best to start off with some sort of revolver. They are cheap and reliable, making them good for self-defence.

You are right about the .357 revolver being a sweet gun. I will own one some day.

But here is my gun (well..one of the them). I bought it not too long ago and I am very happy with it. Springfield Armory XD .45

Notice it has the grip safety like the 1911 but the trigger safety of a glock. It is high capactiy (13 +1 of .45) and yet fits a normal sized hand much easier than a Glock would. It field strips very easily into 4 pieces as you can see (not counting the magazine) and it has a very good reputation. It is a sweet sweet gun and you can definitely afford it new with the $500 you have while a new Glock or 1911 would cost more (especially the 1911).

High capacity and good safety is what you want for home defense. This one has them both. Just do some reading about it online or in gun magazines. Also, send me a PM if you go and get one. I will want to congratulate you.

EDIT:

I forgot to say, but it also comes with 2 magazines, a dual magazine belt carrier, 2 different styles of holster, a flashlight holder, a speed loader, cleaning supplies and a child safety lock with key (see the picture).

Having 2 magazines is extremely useful and if you buy a gun with only 1, you will have to search and buy an extra.

If home defense is what you need just get a crowbar or something. There are no tribes of native americans around anymore about to burn down your house and rape your women.

You do not need a firearm to protect your home (obviously implied in the first sentence), the second sentence refers to a time/situation when a gun would actually be useful to defend your home.

Not to turn this into some anti-gun thread but getting a gun for protection is absolutely laughable without proper training. If you like shooting guns, that's fine.
