I prefer the megatron blaster because i like to fight gigantic robots and you really need the mega for that, but if you're just going to be fighting like an army of stormtroopers or something the rebels make a pretty decent regular blaster that shouldn't set you back to much

For a starter gun, you can't go wrong with a Smith & Wesson .38 Special revolver. User friendly, quality made, and a used pistol can be had for relatively cheap. Definitely check one of these out. If you're just learning to shoot, etc. then you really don't want a Glock or similar type gun. The triggers are shit compared to the S&W. I own a Glock 22 (.40 cal) and a S&W .38 special, and the Smith's trigger is fucking butter. The trigger pull on the Glock requires quite a bit of getting used to, if you want to be accurate.

dont know much about guns but that flashlight is rediculous, id see a downward trend in stray animals if that thing' was ever released
but if i was a mucle head id go with this baby, just the whistling sound alone would be humble enough to lead you out to that scrap metal you called a car
but if im jus shooting for shits n giggles id have to go with a old school one that kept me kicking in all the last generation FPS', its an soviet rifle!
im not the most reliable with this kinda stuff but i figure itd be hard to shoot my eye out with these bad boys.

Exactly. Everyone's tastes, shooting styles, competence and even hand sizes are different.
Your best bet is to go to a shooting range and rent a variety of different firearms in different calibers. Then use that to base your opinions off of.
Show me 100 different firearm owners and I'll show you 100 different opinions on what the best gun is.

that's because of a) personal tastes, and b) utility
you need to figure out what you want in a weapon, i.e. what your intended use is. there are other factors like comfort, accuracy, and caliber selection (taking into account: recoil, velocity/power) but anyone can agree, reliability in a firearm is one of the primary considerations

You would've been better off listing some criteria on which we could base our replies. What's the best gun to buy? What kind of fucking question is that?
