I would have a Barrett M82A1, with a 911A1 as my side arm, and a MP5 for back up.

I'd have to choose for a rifle a Mosin Nagant 1891 (M91) and for a pistol a M1911A1 . My dad owns a M91 and I just love shooting it. It is a bit heavy though.

Hmmm, having to haul a M82A around for any distances in the hopes of a dinosaur attack?

Good luck buying anything from HK other than a hand gun. I hear you can get ahold of HK416's but they are like 5-6K and you can only buy the full auto variant as they dont make a semi auto civilian variant, the MSG90 and HK91's are even harder to find and if you do they are as expensive as a barret M82, and I would personally rather have a .5 cal sniper rifle than a .308 sniper rifle even if it is an HK. HK is really shooting themselves in the foot by not opening up a shop in the US to produce these exotic rifles, its almost as if there goal is not to make money, Oh well PTR-91 picked up the HK tooling for the HK91 so now you can buy PTR-91's that are the same thing as an HK91 the only problem is they come with a 18" barrel and to get anything longer requires a special made duplication of the 24" MSG90 barrel and the TIC for that barrel is around 1K, HK will not even sell you replacement barrels for the MSG90 so if you somehow have authentic HK weapons think twice about actually shooting them because you cant get the parts for them. Its actually the fault of HK themselves and the ATF 2005 importation ban for exotic rifle parts (sort of back door gun control, I have been learning thats how our government works, the ATF the military its all a joke). Any HK weapon you find in the US there is about a 300% mark up on them making them not even really worth the money, if you ever did find an acutal HK MSG90 barrel it would probably run you about 2K when HK sells them to the magic lepercauns under the sea for 700$ (who knows who the hell they actually sell there guns to other than the german army who never really use them or some special forces capt with a magic purchase order number. So yes a G36/416 would be nice to get but im not going to pay 6K for it.

And actually you cant even buy the G36 only the 416. You can get a Colt 1020 or M5 which is Colts answer to the 416, HK cryed patent infringemnt blah blah blah, I dont have any sympathy for HK, they should not have a right to any of there patents if they are not going to sell there weapons to anyone but the military

What got your panties in a wad gunny, nothing in my rant had anything to do with my standard montra. I did go out and shoot my PTR-91 today and it was pretty fun, I was trying to hit a 400 yd target with wolf ammo and significant mirage effect along with wind so needless to say I could not even hit the paper. I still need to get a bipod with a swivel and buy better ammo and read up on how to compensate for things like that I may need to get a more powerfull scope as well with laser ranger finding and range markers built into the scope cross hairs thoes scopes are like 1K but at least I know with optics I wont be extorted like with an MSG90 barrel.

hmmmm, it was due to your responses to folks seeking information regarding a family member. You show in your responses to folks that are worried sick about loosing a child, you answer without feeling or remorse over your words or the impact they might have.

Your typical rant has no place when responding to folks that are only seeking reassurances or some type of direction from us.

You have no doubt heard of the saying 'SUPPORT The TROOPS'? Well to us it goes beyond only supporting the troops, it encompasses thier families as well.

And by the way, if you can't hit paper at 400 yards with iron sights, then a scope isn't going to get you on paper at 400 yards. You simply don't know how to compensate for windage. Learn that before you spend money on a scope, as the same principles apply. You may decide you don't really need a scope at all.

I might be wrong though.

BTW, Eric, if you're a hitman, I'll pay you to kill rppearso (even though I put him on my ignore list, his posts waste bandwidth on this site.)


Even Special Ops don't use it that often.
