If you can only afford one gun as of now and want to use it for everything, get a 5.56 AR-15 with a 16" barrel and collapsible stock.

If youve only got money for one, you probably dont have $1000+ :p

Guys, i've been wanting a gun for some time now.

I need to start off by becoming a resident of Nevada, right?
Then getting my permit?
Then getting a gun?

What else is there to do?

What would be a good weapon to get? I would like something that isn't too costly, accurate, a all around good "If I hear glass break, then footsteps in my house, someone is going to get shot in the belly" type gun.

I would like once nice hand gun, and one nice rifle of some sorts. A hand gun first, then a rifle. The rifle could be used for hunting, but also for the same reason as above.

Also because when we have an economic collapse, and people start parading our property to steal our fresh food source and to steal our clean water stored, i'll be popping them off left and right composting the bodies to enrich our soil.

you shouldnt need a CCW to carry whatever you want on your own property.  It depends on your state if you need a gun permit, you dont need any permit or anything here in ol Virginia, you just go to the gun store, get your name run through the system, and then you get your gun.

Get a 12 gauge for home protection.  Dont use a rifle man, that shit goes through walls, not what you want at all with roommates.  Plus, your first instinct should be to get him out of there, not snipe him.  The sound of a shotgun cocking will deter most robbers, they want nothing of that.  And you shouldnt blast someone for stealing either, only if you were being attacked or they were armed.  For a rifle, something like a 30-30 would be perfect for most game.  Varmint, a .223 like birdmang said or alot of people are even using these .17 varmint rifles. http://www.gunsandammomag.com/cs/Satellite/IMO_GA/Story_C/Ruger+K77%252F17+Varmint.

I was just saying that the AR-15 isnt more accurate because its a single shot like duder claimed.  Ive never shot an FAL personally.  But if you want something to just go have some fun with, the main considerations for me are cost of the gun and cost of ammo.  Its got to be affordable to go shoot a ton of rounds for the day.  And unless you have loot to stockpile ammo, getting a caliber most places will readily have helps also.

I heard Ar-15 prices have gone up so fucking high.  They're gonna be way better to shoot than the ak though.  Aks aren't known for their accuracy, they're the most popular machine gun cause they're cheap and will work filthy forever, not accurate as a single shot weapon.

yours will be a single shot AK.  The AR-15 will be more accurate because its a more precision modern firearm.  

It sucks that prices are through the roof on everything but Im not sure if they will ever go down again really.  I only see gun laws tightening which allows gun makers and gun dealers to inflate their own business by spreading rumors and scaring people into buying now.  Its working too.  Sales are good.  I was in Walmart looking for some ammo not too long ago and they were still sold out of most everything.  Its been like that for 6 months or more now.  People are buying it up as fast as the factories can make it.

I dont get the obsession with cheap russian rifles but to each their own.  

My mom just found some of my grandfather's guns she thought were gone so I got this little thing.  It has two cylinders, one for .22 magnum and one for .22 long or short.  Suprisingly accurate for such a small piece.  Might be hard to tell but its about palm size.

Have any of you guys ever had a police encounter with your gun on you?

Knowing the cops in my area, it would not be fun.

If you have a CCW, you're fine.  But I dont believe that Chicago issues them or there might be tons of BS you go through.  I was at a gun store yesterday and the people working there kept referring to our pres as "Comrade Obama."  Michael Savage was on the radio.

Ok, so I'm actually going shooting tomorrow so I went over to Walmart to pick up some rounds.  They were sold out of every pistol ammunition except for .40S&W and .45ACP (got something at least, no others).  Later this evening I went to another Walmart close by with a friend and decided to check there.  They didnt have any at all but shit like .25 and .32, no .38, no nothing.  The guy pointed to a letter posted on the counter which basically stated that there is such a demand for ammunition right now that they're having trouble keeping up with demand.  The letter even mentioned people's fear of a possible tax on ammunition.  So, my question finally, is this something to worry about legitimately or is it more general paranoia.

One thing I really like about firearms is they hold their value for the most part.  As long as it isn't some generic piece of junk you can sell it for about what you have in to it.  My long gun I bought a couple years ago is now selling for two to three hundred bucks more than what I payed.

Alot of that is because of Obama.  People are so scared he's going to take away guns, prices are through the roof.  The gun I just bought was 150 bucks less 18 months ago and thats pretty consistent across the board it seems.  I just went to a gun show recently and previously theres been a good turnout but this time, it was back to back and the line was about 100 yards long.  People are paranoid as hell right now.  What also sucks is that dealers are less likely to give breaks on prices right now because theres such demand.  I heard alot of the dealers talking about how this is the biggest rush they've seen in memory.

edit:  I was also going to remark on the efficient comment.  Care to elaborate?  Revolvers are extremely simple and efficient.  So many pistols for home defense are DAO now anyways so its not that much different to shoot.  You can just do alot more with a semi-auto and to many theyre more comfortable.  I personally love revolvers and think theyre a blast to shoot.  My .357 mag is the most accurate gun I have.
