what's your black sheep (picture thread)

[Oldnoob]

i saw this thread on other forum and i think it could be fun.

post picture of your gun that everyone seem to dislike but it just work like dream for you. be as specific as you can and with picture.

i love my Hi Point C9. it was my first pistol and i wasn't sure if i would like firearm at that time. got one after i check out HP forum and all their owner seem to love it and the price was right. the warranty helped for i knew next to nothing about gun at the time. well, now over 3k round very very few ftf (less than my beretta). at about 1k rd, the firing spring seem weaken, one phone call to HP, 3 days later a free firing pin set get mail it to me (they re-design the firing pin too, not the same come with the pistol). since them not yet have another problem.





these are the pins i was talking about. top: old, bottom: new

GAH! They're uglier than sin!! Glad it works for you though. I'll never own one- my friend had one, NIB, and the slide broke in half. I'd rather spend my money on 25 trips to Taco Bell.

Don't be a d!ck, KAD.

Here's mine. Remington 710. I have never heard so much crap talked about a gun. I got it NIB for $275. I can shoot 1 MOA with it and I like it because I can beat the hell out of it not care one bit if it gets beat to hell.


I added my own camo job as I hated the gray stock.

will ive heard the 710 have had some problems but i dont know ive never shot one so i cant comment

[longtalltechsan]

The action isn't as smooth as the 700's, but otherwise I have absolutely no problems with it. I really like it and I could easily hit the kill zone on a deer or elk at 200 yards or more if I do my part. It has been a good rifle. But believe me, I have heard plenty of $hit about this rifle and how it is just absolute crap. From what I am guessing though is it from people who have never shot one. Imagine that!

mine is my SEARS 20 gauge more crap talked about this gun then any other one i own but i have never cleaned it and it still works great

the keltec was one of the black sheep but ive sold it. i had no problems with it but i wanted an ar-15

the savage 22lr is a beast it just keeps on working it was my first gun and my only gun(non-shotgun) for 3 years and has had at least 10,000 rounds through it and for the first year the action was never cleaned and when i cleaned the barrel i had to do it from muzzle end so all the crud just got pushed back into the action. i didnt know how to clean a gun then and on the savage you have to break it all the way down in order to get the bolt out to do a good cleaning.

I have had 1 failure due to my own stupidity (fixed by S&W for free), but other than that, not 1 problem. This has been an awesome pistol for me and I carry it off and on with my XD. It has made me the shooter I am today. I can quickly put 2 holes in an 8" square target from 5-10 yards with no trouble, despite a heavy trigger. Love this gun. It was my first.
