I've always been a big fan of A Christmas Story, as has been my whole family. When I turned 21, my Mom jokingly got me a Red Ryder BB Gun for Christmas- She figured I could handle it then.
That afternoon we went up to my Grandparents' lake house and I went exploring around shooting at different things. After a while, I took aim at a fence post and came within 4" of shooting my eye out when it ricocheted back at me. Life almost imitated Art. lol
I've fired:
Red Ryder, carbine action, 200 shot range model air rifle
DY880 Multi - Pump Single Shot Pellet Gun
Crosman C21
Crosman Corporation Quest .22 Break Barrel Carbine
Chad  I had a bb gun too, when I was a kid, and have a pellet gun now for squirrels in the attic...

Chad thats freaking hillarious! ted and tdi, im damn jealos!!! brian, i also keep a pellet gun on my fridge for the random varmints that decide to wander too close. i had a couple of mice in the garage on sunday (in my carp bait), went for the pellet gun and realized i was missing a seal so it just dumped all the co2 instantly. ended up smashing one with a peice of lumber and the other got away. i havent shot very many guns. .45 colt 1911 .45 taurus revolver some other revolver? "the judge" a few different ar15's .223/5.56 the beowulf .50 a assortment of .22's- -s&w m&p15/22 -ruger 10/22 -some weird czek rifle -remington r-22 jennings .22 pistol a few remington 700's in various calibers- 25/06 .243 .270 may be a while before i get behind a barret .50BMG!

if you ever get the chance to shoot a 45/70, that is a fun rifle!! A lot of power with surprisingly little recoil. It can do some damage down range though!
I thank God for each day!

That like the M107. Yes it shoots a 50 and is good for 1.5 miles. Buts recoil is doable. You could put 100 rounds down range and be ok. Lugging it around is different though. Its heavy. What I find amazing is the AA12. I'm not a shotgun guy at all. But the fact that what recoil it has is used to counter act barrel rise to keep you on target is incredable. Plus it looks like a tommy gun. And is set up like a carbine, so is easy to the infantryman to carry for door breaching, and still carry an M4. Depending uppon the sling used for the M4, ether of the weapons are easy to transition to as well.
