What’s in your gun safe?

Lol I wasn’t going to join into this thread but couldn’t give up the opportunity for a good joke.

Multiple people have mistaken my username for standing for “concealed carry weapon” when it’s just my initials. Figured this was my chance to turn it around on y’all. :p
Phew. lol

My wedding party. Left to right: Daughter, wife’s friend (maid of honor), me, wife, son, father.
 
As an avid collector of oddball range toys, my collection is pretty eclectic. Well, it was eclectic. My neighbor somehow convinced me to go fishing with him, and somehow all my guns and ammo disappeared into a lake I forgot the name and location of. Oh well.

But before that unfortunate incident, there was one gun that really stood out to me as the top of my collection. As a kid, my favorite book was Rainbow Six. Yeah, I was a weird kid. That book featured a gun that I couldn't stop lusting for until I got my hands on one. At least a clone of one. For those who know about that book or the history of the FBI HRT, here you go.

My buddy has a shotgun collection that's equal to a new Bentley or two. He was sponsored by Perazzi. Those things are works of art and, in his hands at least, amazing tools. He used to have his ammo delivered by the pallet load!

Trivia note: Beretta is the world's oldest manufacturing company.
 
Fun range guns, a lot of features for your dollar, but as with all things, you get what you pay for. Turkish made, imported by Century Arms. They seem to be fairly well made, but if you do have issues, good luck dealing with the Jokers at Century.

If it were me, I'd buy a more basic Glock and spend my extra money on ammo and training. To me, a Canik is a Raptor Grille on an XL STX F-150.... you wanted to look cool, but you were too poor to get the real thing.

I prefer American/Austrian pistols, with good customer service, and most importantly that don't fund terroristic governments.
I’ve got a few glocks/custom and custom 1911’s. Just wanted a ranch/truck gun that I can abuse and not worry about it getting thrown around.
 
Anyone shot a Kanik? My buddy who is also my FFL has been shooting one about two years. Has put 10xxx’s of rounds through it and finally talked me into buying one. He says it’s out of the box as good or better than ma y of his custom $$$ race guns. I’ve got one coming this week, will update.

Hot garbage, overpriced range toy at best
 
Lotsa bling and bang!

So, a question to you pros. Every review I've read of these new fangled touchpad/fingerprint safes says they're bogus. Have any of yous guys had a good experience? I love tech but if the Zombies attack at Oh Damn Thirty I'd rather grab my key or run the combo than find out my high tech safe won't let me in.
I prefer RFID, I have the Hornady pistol safe and put and RFID on my phone and one on my watch. If I could imbed one in my hand I would. It also as a quick 4 button combo keypad backup. They sell bracelets, credit type cards, key ring fobs, etc. I look at the fingerprint thing like this. How well does your fingerprint work on your phone without fighting to get it to work? I n=know mine isn't always on the first try. Samsung and Apple probably have better technology than any gun safe manufacturer.

The facial recognition works great on my iPhone, except when wearing a mask.
 
Thank you very much & those are some great looking smoke poles

The boating accident idiots are quite tiresome, it’s not like they are fooling anybody & instead just being childish
I guess I'm one of the idiots of which you speak. Some may think they can remain covert but most of us are just making a joke of it. Still you can assume I'm an idiot.
