Barrett M82. Affordable, powerful, portable, ergonomic, concealable, all around the best in every way. Or, if you want a CCW handgun, a Desert Eagle in 50 AE, or a 500 S&W Magnum. Not hard to conceal if you keister carry it.

Friends don’t let friends be fudds. Let’s just say I know the alias of a friend of a friend who carries in his university (in California) with an polymer 80 Glock using handloaded ammo. He/she is 17, got really creative on hiding the purchases, forging age and id, and bypassing California’s draconian laws, all because the law is much less of a concern than a mass shooter or an assailant.

@thebrizzy 7 лет назад

The first I bought was Ruger 10/22. You can learn to shoot with it, learn maintenance, and learn how guns work. Great for target shooting, small game hunting, pest control, and self defense with the right ammo and technique. Inexpensive, customizable, reliable, and well documented. Its hard to beat for a first timer.

@haydenskaggs1636 9 лет назад

For me the first gun hands down is a 22 rifle. The only question is single fire, bolt, or semiautomatic depending on age and maturity. Unfortunately because of the hoarding of ammo that may be hard to do.

I’d been shooting with .22 rifles all my life through scouts, but I’d only recently bought my first handgun. Through CONSTANT nagging from my friend, I’d walked out with a series 80 Colt 1911. I don’t shoot it as often as I’d prefer, but I really just love the activity of disassembling it, cleaning it up, and putting it back together.

@39Thorns 8 лет назад

My first gun was a Colt 1991 A1, .45 acp, bought new in '91. Still my favorite. Few years later I got 2 .38 snubbies and a .20 guage pump action shotgun. This is because I was living in Detroit with my girlfriend, and needed fireams we could share. Carried the .38, 20 guage for the apartment.

If you’re here in 2022 looking for a good first gun.. look for an AR15 (palmetto, radical, Springfield, ruger, s&w are good, affordable options) if you just want a nice versatile rifle for life and liberty. or if you’re looking for a handgun for concealed carry glock 43x or the sig p365xl, great size to flex for both home defense and concealed carry :)

My first gun was a Ruger 8301, still shoots like a dream. Only issues I have is when I run crap ammo through it, but one of my favorite parts of shooting is cleaning the guns after so that doesn't faze me at all. I like it better than my 10/22 cause I like to shoot subsonic rounds out the back door at squirrels and I don't think the 10/22 would cycle them really well. With a bolt, I never have to worry about any of that.

Well hopefully you already figured this out but i imagine there’s at least an indoor range somewhere close by. If not it’s definitely worth finding the closest public range or public land you can legally practice. Even if you have to travel a bit to practice it’s definitely worth the time invested.

I've got 3 M&P15's; 2- Sport models which were $550 each with a Pmag, MAgPul MBUS rear sights and a hard case and 1- Magpul edition M&P15 that came with all Magpul furniture and sights as well as the same case and 30rd Pmag and that was $875. All are fantastic rifles; MOA accurate and dead reliable. and for the money you just can't beat them.

@mrbojangles155 9 лет назад

My first gun I bought a couple days ago. A 1939 Mosin Nagant. Absolutely in love with it and super cheap to shoot! Surplus ammo is very cheap(440 rounds for about $97 shipping and all) but it is corrosive so you have to clean right after shooting so it doesn't rust but really can't go wrong with it. It seems like a lot of people start with this gun and I don't blame them at a 7.62x54R round it's perfect for hunting or just taking to the range to shoot. At a price of $154 it's also a great buy as well too!

@ibuprofenPill 7 лет назад

I just bought my first gun: a Springfield Armory XD-9 Mod. 2. I wanted something good on which to learn and was told 9mm's are a great choice. I wanted a reasonable cost of ammunition and price point between $350-$450. I also wanted something to carry concealed if I ever decided I wanted to. Just as in my business life whether I'm bidding or pricing, I never take the cheapest or most expensive option. Usually the best value is found somewhere in between. Finally, I made the decision based on how it felt in my hand. The critical factor was that I felt it was easier for me to eject the magazine on the SA, more so than the other manufacturers. I practiced dry firing in my living room and learned all I could by myself and didn't even load the gun until I was in a beginning safety course. Now I have been to the range a couple times by myself and plan to take a LTC class in the near future. As of September 1, 2017, the price of applying for a LTC in Texas will decrease from $140 to $40. I'll gladly wait the 86 days as of this writing. $100 is $100, after all. I still have no idea if I'll actually carry, but at least I'll have the option.

Low recoil, extremely easy to field strip and clean, reliable garand-style action. I plan on picking up a .308 for hunting, or possibly buying a Mosin and updating it a bit. Great vid!

Mine, Ruger Mark IV 22. Great baby step into guns. Inexpensive to shoot, easy to clean when you figured out that crazy pin on back of grip. Felt a little sheepish going to gun range as a big guy telling them all I had was .22, but clerk and several others said great way to learn.

@PessOmist 10 лет назад

First gun should be a .22lr rifle, since you should be 18 buying your first gun and need something cheap to practice with.

@patrickrodriguez320 8 лет назад

First of all you left out shot gun. A 12 gauge pump is the most versatile all around gun in America. As far as rifles i strongly urge you to buy a 22. My first time buying guns i bought 3 all in one whack. Marlin 60, 500 20ga, and ruger mini 14

@strat1080 5 лет назад

A shotgun was one of the first guns I bought ans while it is versatile, I don’t really use it much

@grantsdad177 5 лет назад

@rexxdogg9360 5 лет назад

12 gauge and 22 rifle I think are essential for learning gun operation. Simple and easy yet effective. Throw in a .303 British Enfield (bolt action rifle) and any mid level caliber revolver that should be everything you absolutely need to learn about weapons for self defense. Very simple weapons you shouldn't have any issues with handling

@rexxdogg9360 5 лет назад

Couldn't agree more though 12 gauge pump action shotgun should be one of the first guns to ever handle

@SterlingHaze 10 лет назад

Great video guys. As I live in the UK, a shotgun license is easier to get hold of than a firearms certificate, so the first gun I owned was a 12 gauge over and under. I'm looking to get a firearms certificate soon, so I think the first rifle I'll get will be a 10/22 ruger. Thanks for the advice

AK is hands down the best if you can obtain one. Simple mechanics make the gun easy to use, easy to maintain, reliable, fun to shoot. For younger people and people who just want to plink maybe a lever action 22 or semiauto 22 like a ruger10/22.

It'll kill them, but you shouldn't. They never carry rabies (seriously, like single digit number of cases in history, ever), they help get rid of carrion, they aren't mean enough to pose much threat to dogs, cats, etc., they eat literally thousands of ticks each every season, and they tend to run other, more harmful vermin off. If they're not directly causing you problems somehow, you should leave opossums alone.

@waveman0 8 лет назад

+TekkitCast somewhat true, though if you persist and get your Cat A & B license you can still own many cool guns. Yes semi auto rifles, semi auto and pump action shotguns and handguns are restricted, but that does leave bolt, lever action and pump action rifles (yes there is that discrepancy between pump action rifles and shotguns). I consider my Remington 7600 Police in .308 with 10 rnd mags a 'good gun', or the several bolt action and lever actions I own 'good guns', and now that I have spent the money on getting my IAC M-87 lever action shotgun reliable it is a 'good gun'. Just because the asshole Government has placed restriction on firearm ownership doesn't preclude you from doing your best to maintain ownership. Play their game, be politically active and try to get the fucking hoplophobic laws repelled.

@mobstamaniac 8 лет назад

+Orion Can get an AR15 here in NZ when it has a thumbhole stock and no bayonet lug, not allowed High cap magazine either but you can get it on your standard licence. However it's restricted by cost, 3600 dollars really stops people from buying them unless you are a real enthusiast. But you can get the kind of rig here: www.trademe.co.nz/sports/hunting-shooting/rifles/centrefire/auction-1038682913.htm

@waveman0 8 лет назад

mobstamaniac yeah mate I have often looked at the gear NZ'ers can get, to be honest it makes me quite depressed. High capacity mags are great, but I am not that upset about our 10 rnd (cat A license) or 15 rnd mag limit (for Cat B) restrictions, I have rarely emptied my mag out while hunting and if you have few mags (I have 4 KKK 10 rnd mags for my Remington 7600, along with 2 factory 4 rnd mags) a simple mag change keeps you shooting.

@guisspino 5 лет назад

My first was a 686+ 3 inch. Love it, still have it. Carried it for a while, it was definitely practical as at the time I was really into country kayaking. It was able to handle hard cast 357 or 38 shot shells. Great gun. But in my opinion any 357/38 double action revolver or a 9 mm duty style pistol is the way to go. Something fairly cheap and easy to shoot but also something that can be reliable used in the self-defense environment.

@jackhousman6637 8 лет назад

Right! a persons very first firearm should be a .22 caliber rifle. But, not a semi-auto. It should be what I was taught on at age 9, a single-shot, bolt action with a separate cocking piece on the bolt, a kid-sized Winchester and a full-sized Stevens. ( I also own a kid-sized falling-block, an early 20th Century Stevens, with a heavy trigger, and a large external hammer, that has to be cocked.) BEFORE you do any actual shooting, you MUST be taught to handle guns safely, by someone who knows MORE about it than YOU do, until the safety precautions become second-nature, and are followed with absolute consistency. Only THEN should you be taught to actually shoot, and only after plenty of shooting with the .22, should you try your hand at larger calibers and more complex actions. Great site. Keep it up.

@scotty2jr 8 лет назад

@randallpickard6187 7 лет назад

I agree with you there. I learned how to shoot a rifle with my dad's 10/22. And I learned how to handle a handgun both revolvers and semiautomatic with my uncles Ruger and 1911. I'm teaching my 4 year old daughter with an unloaded air rifle and spring pistol. I know that I know that I know they are unloaded because I bought them from the store and never put anything in them. And even she learns the safety aspect of it I'll let her actually put bbs downrange

@Sisdabom 9 лет назад

Dax Corsiar It will all depend on your laws in whatever state you reside in. I personally don't know anything about gun laws in California. That you will have to look up yourself but if you can get a carry licence I suggest finding a gun range near you that will let you rent firearms first to find out the recoil and feel of what you are wanting to buy. Just try to be sure beforehand because 99% of the time firearms and ammunition are nonrefundable. P.S. Today was actually my first gun buy as well. (Mosin Nagant)

@michaelalexeyev995 9 лет назад

Gun permit yes, conceal carry permit almost impossible in california. California is a may issue state, which is basically that even if an applicant meets all the requirements for a ccw, the application still might (and most likely will) be denied. Here in NJ for instance, less CCW's are issued in one year than in one weekend in Virginia.

My first gun was a Mosin Nagant. It's a simple construction and is easy for a first time user to understand. It is a good choice except for the fact that you have to do some research on cosmilene cleaning and have to account for a high caliber kick. I sort of want to get a Ruger10/22 or a Marlin 60. I think these guys are making a good sell for one. I want to practice on the range all day without a bruised shoulder.
