Glock 18

Does it have to be real?  If not I go with the sniper pistol off halo 1.
And If it has to be real, Luger, or however it is spelled.  Even though it sucked.

I'll say Glock 18 as Scarecrow63. Although russian Nagant is good also.

The Walther PPK always seemed to serve Bond well...
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Scarecrow63 on October 02, 2007, 11:56:38 AM
I think Bond could use anything just fine

yep i also like the Colt M1911a1
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Scarecrow63 on October 02, 2007, 07:07:08 PM
probably the best pistol of WW2
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Meyer on October 03, 2007, 12:27:57 AM
nah. Nagant was better.
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Kratas on October 03, 2007, 01:39:48 PM
the colt thing
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Scarecrow63 on October 03, 2007, 06:17:59 PM
nah. Nagant was better.

too small an effective range
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Meyer on October 04, 2007, 01:19:03 AM
well pistol is usually used at point-blank range. you have rifles and machine guns to shoot farther objects.
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: GrndAdmrlPellaeon on October 04, 2007, 06:22:51 PM
Machine guns are good for mid-range. Long range is impractical with automatic firearms. Unless its an automatic sniper rifle.
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Scarecrow63 on October 04, 2007, 07:40:26 PM
the pistol is also used as a gun when your out of ammo with other stuff, and having a magazine is better than a revolver
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Mandalore-the-Inquizitor on October 04, 2007, 10:07:59 PM
ugg i hate Automatics atleast with the revover u cant actidently hot the magizine realese and drop ur clip
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Scarecrow63 on October 05, 2007, 07:54:20 AM
Its not a button, its a switch, i doubt anyone has 'accidentally' hit the release
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Meyer on October 05, 2007, 08:24:59 AM
he/she would have to be really stupid. and I mean REALLY stupid.
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Scarecrow63 on October 05, 2007, 05:37:49 PM
ugg i hate Automatics atleast with the revover u cant actidently hot the magizine realese and drop ur clip

and if you do accidentally drop out your mag while shooting, you probably shouldn't have a gun in the first place
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol

Jonny English?
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Scarecrow63 on October 05, 2007, 07:28:01 PM
That proves my point
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Mandalore-the-Inquizitor on October 05, 2007, 09:19:36 PM
on the 1911 its right above the hand grip it is eay to hit u dont have to be an idiot to do it its right by your HAND
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Scarecrow63 on October 05, 2007, 09:35:55 PM
you know why its right by your HAND? so when your shootin the bad guys you can quickly change mags

And if you're good enough with the gun in the first place, the release wouldn't be a problem at all, its like you're saying magazines are a retarded feature
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Meyer on October 06, 2007, 02:03:27 AM
theu're usually the best choice. I mean revolver has 6 bullets while pistolswith mags can have up 17.
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Scarecrow63 on October 06, 2007, 12:17:56 PM
yeah, its pointless to argue that a magazine is stupid
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Mandalore-the-Inquizitor on October 07, 2007, 08:12:56 PM
dosent make an automatic bettershure more bullets big deal id take the 7 shot nagnt revolver any day
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Scarecrow63 on October 07, 2007, 09:16:47 PM
magazines reload a hell of alot faster
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: GrndAdmrlPellaeon on October 07, 2007, 09:31:53 PM
I think he means that he trusts guns more without "mags".
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Scarecrow63 on October 07, 2007, 09:40:06 PM
yeah, cause he apparently presses the clip release all the time
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Meyer on October 08, 2007, 12:28:13 AM
So you don't trust automatic weapons either then?
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Scarecrow63 on October 08, 2007, 07:11:00 PM

My choice wed all be fighting with swords and not silly guns
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Meyer on October 16, 2007, 12:36:56 AM
assault rifle is good.
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Slornie on October 16, 2007, 05:09:39 AM

A more civilised weapon from a more civilised age, huh? :P
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Meyer on October 16, 2007, 05:30:26 AM
civilised? hacking off hands, legs and hands. Do you consider that civilised?

I know but I couldn't resist myself asking.
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Slornie on October 16, 2007, 08:44:26 AM
Meh.

Well, in some ways swords and the like are better than guns, because it is much more personal.. You are physically chopping off that limb, or stabbing them, rather than just aiming and shooting at them from afar.
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Meyer on October 16, 2007, 08:45:39 AM
yeah but large scale fight are quite confusing. it's man-vs-man. if you're a commander in that kind of an fight you can get confused quickly.
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Scarecrow63 on October 16, 2007, 06:22:32 PM
And strategy and training, not to mention technological advantages, really play a limited role

It'd almost be who had the most people
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Mandalore-the-Inquizitor on October 16, 2007, 07:27:46 PM
not so look at willam wallace its not nubers as much as technolgy skill and flanking
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Meyer on October 17, 2007, 12:29:50 AM
surprise is the keyelement in that kind of an warfare but numbers are very important also.
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Scarecrow63 on October 17, 2007, 06:19:44 PM
And when using swords, technology isn't a very important factor
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Meyer on October 18, 2007, 02:31:27 AM
they are pretty low-tech weapons. at least today.
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Scarecrow63 on October 18, 2007, 11:13:00 AM
they're sharp and pointy, cant really improve the sword much
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Kratas on October 18, 2007, 02:03:22 PM
yes you can make them sharper and make them fire out of a gun
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Scarecrow63 on October 18, 2007, 02:20:03 PM
If you fired it out of a gun it wouldn't really be considered sword fighting anymore
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Kratas on October 18, 2007, 02:34:40 PM
no it would be considered sword gun fighting thing
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Meyer on October 18, 2007, 03:14:33 PM
interesting concept. you should try to invent that kind of an sword-gun thing.
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: vadereclipse on October 18, 2007, 03:19:50 PM
bayonets?????
they are like sword-guns
in a different way
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Meyer on October 18, 2007, 03:21:31 PM
I thought Kratas meant a gun that actually shoots the swords. not guns that have swords attached on it.
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: vadereclipse on October 18, 2007, 03:24:19 PM
oh
a swoord shooting gun would be stupid
it would lose momentum
and tthe ammo would be quite resource draining
Title: Re: ur favorite pistol
Post by: Kratas on October 18, 2007, 05:29:44 PM
sword shooting

I believe he is saying that you cant say "Deathe to the slang!" because you use too much of it.
Title: Re: Your favorite pistol
Post by: vadereclipse on October 29, 2007, 07:31:40 AM
no. I am confused at him saying "eclipse because you are not worthy of the vader" bit
he seems to dislike me and i dont know what i have done. I may lack punctuation but i dont use shorthand.
Title: Re: Your favorite pistol
Post by: Mandalore-the-Inquizitor on November 04, 2007, 11:13:12 AM
wtf not it take too damn long to type out a whole word shorthand was invented for the internet so use it there and BACK ON TOPIC MAGGOTS
Title: Re: Your favorite pistol
Post by: Slornie on November 04, 2007, 12:13:45 PM
Actually, shorthand was developed to improve the speed of writing, typically using symbols and abbreviations to represent words and common phrases, allowing people (such as journalists) to write as quickly as people talk.  Its increased use on the internet (if what is used on the internet can be called shorthand) is due to people being too lazy to take those extra few seconds needed to type properly.

Here is a great piece of advice:
Quote
Pay attention to your spelling and grammar.  Its all about communication, and poorly constructed messages are confusing.  If your words are important enough to write, they're important enough to write well, time spent making a message clearer is always time well spent.  Also try to use capitals and punctuation, they make things so much easier to read.
