You MIGHT be a mall ninja...

[MT2008]

Posted on another forum I frequent. I thought it was pretty funny.

You might be a mall ninja if:

You considered duct-taping a kitchen knife to your long arms to serve as a bayonet.

Your AR has more rails than the local train yard.

You put a heat shield on your shotgun because you may need it during urban assaults.

You put an M4 stock on your H&R single shot.

You put a pistol grip on your shotgun because you are so good at hip-shooting. If one pistol grip is good, two must be better, ehhh?

You don't actually have an AR, so you decided to make your 10/22 look like one as much as possible.

You have a breaching device on the end of your home defense shotgun, just in case you need to breach your own doors.

You think that during TSHTF, you will carry a bolt action rifle, a shotgun, a SOCOM M1A, a Ruger Mark II, and a 1911 just to cover all the base.

You have a .50 cal muzzle brake on your shotgun.

Your game remote is attached to an AR rail in case you get ambushed on Rainbow Six while you are handling your AR.

You have desert camo or sand colored weapons, even though you live in Illinois.

You consider playing Call of Duty to be combat experience.

Some people on TFL have said gecko gives them tactical advice if you ask him.

Owning a pistol gripped shotgun with a heat shield doesn't help either...

Looks like you and your Mossberg are ready for Khe Sanh. :D

[MT2008]

I've thought about buying a pistol-grip shotgun with a heat shield for years now. Guess I might be a mall ninja.

[k9870]

Ive never considered one, i like a stock. More control.

[k9870]

BTW GM, whats the revolver in that pic?

[Gunmaster45]

It's a Smith & Wesson Model 14, more specifically a K-14 Masterpiece. It's an excellent .38 revolver with great double and single trigger pulls.

Here's a pic of the gun:

I've shown it on the forum before. I need to clean it actually, I checked on it recently and it's getting a little surface rust. I left it alone for too long.

[k9870]

Looks nice, the only wheelguns ive fired are single action (.22 single six and .30 carbine blackhawk) so id ont know how double action plls are. Is it better than a double action auto? I find double action autos a bit hard to shoot accurately in faster fire due to the long pull.

[Gunmaster45]

Yes, it's a lot easier. Revolvers usually have better double action trigger pulls than autos, unless you install some super-trigger in your auto. But usually I cock the hammer before firing because it is easier to shoot accurately.

To be fair though, the K-14 is a target pistol, and has a slightly better trigger than your standard S&W.

And because of what I do with my dad, I've shot wheel guns galore. Pretty much any single action made by Ruger or Colt has been in my hands and/or fired. The Blackhawk in .30 Carbine is kind of fun, but the Blackhawk in .44 Magnum is a beast. I shot it while rested so I didn't get to use the gun's weight to my advantage. Leaves your thumb webbing pretty sore. I love the Ruger Single Six and practice the standard cowboy shooting techniques like fanning, drawing (I never practice drawing loaded, I like having all my toes intact), spinning (again unloaded), and SASS rapid hammer firing. All are fun, but movies and SASS shooters make it look much easier. I mean, they shoot .38s and .45s and I have trouble keeping a .22 Magnum in the same control.

I would by one with a pistol grip and a telescoptic stock like an M4 and I dont think that's being Mall Ninja

This is my dream shotgun. Extended 7 shot magazine tube, collapsing stock, pistol grip, and ghost ring sights. Sexy. It makes the somewhat boring Remington 870 interesting again.

[k9870]

Hey GM, was wondering about the k-14, do you have experience with the new k 14s in the classic series? Are these new smiths anything like the old.?

[Gunmaster45]

'fraid I don't. My dad put together a newer model once (I think it was nickel or stainless, can't remember) and shot at deer eating his shrubs to scare them off, but he eventually gave it back to the customer.

It had a very nice cylinder lock, and nothing wobbles when the hammer is cocked, while my K-14 has a little free play. Other than that I don't know. :confused:

[Yournamehere]

The newer S&W products are shadows of their former selves, not to say they are completely terrible. The firing pins are now internal, and some of them have locks, and frankly, terrible triggers. They lock up tight, though, and should shoot alright. They aren't the same gun, though, by a long shot.

[k9870]

Classics series is lock-free, i dont mind a lock though, id just rather not have one.....ive heard some smiths are poor but a lot are good. Never heard a 686 complaint. Have heard man- a complaint about the performance center guns having poor QC though, and modern j frames arent known for good triggers at all.
