Title: Hunting Handgun picture thread
Post by: superdown on December 30, 2015, 08:31:34 AM
I thought it would be cool to start a thread for pictures of hunting handguns.I thought i saw a similar thread awhile back but i couldn't find it so i will start a new one.Ok so i will  start with what i got for Christmas a CVA scout in 300 black out and a Leupold 2x pistol scope.

I don't have a picture and if this is a thread jack I'll delete it. But I'm curious about that thing. It seems like it would be the ticket for still hunting and tree standing blacktails. How far can you accurately shoot that free hand?

I just got it for Christmas so i will have to find out on my first few range trips.I have an older primos mono pod shooting stick i will be taking with me when i am hunting.It is kinda of like a pole cat or trigger stick just the older version.

Probably something like this. Or i was thinking of a single point ar style sling attached to the sling swivel stud on the grip and a a back up line from the sling to the fore stock swivel stud in case the grip stud broke or stripped out.

I don't entirely disagree; the BATFE does though! :tup:

Do I at least get points for the BFR, 480 Ruger, and the MK III 22 and the pile of 41 mag, 44 mag, 454, 460 S&W and 500 S&W revolvers I've had? And to be fair, the 221 Fireball was designed as a handgun round. So are the 30 Herrett, 7mm TCU and my variant of the 338/375 Ruger  .....  ;)

I never declared any of them unawesome.  On the contrary, id love to shoot each one
  But most of them dont qualify as a "handgun" by my personal standards.  They all do qualify as "really freakin cool" though
