What gun(s) should I rent. Keep in mind it's $10 per gun and I don't want to pay a fortune. Click the link below to see his list of rentals available. Wish he had some more 40's and 45's rather than all those 9mm's, but based on the part of town he's in, I'm not surprised. Bunch of wannabe gang bangers that think the 9mm is the only gun to own.

Great deal going for an ok gun.

S&W Sigma 9mm or .40 $279.99 Not the best gun in my opinion, but its cheap and compact in case you have a CW.

Cheap is not good!! I'll never own a firearm that sells for under $500!! But I purchase my Glocks through a law enforcement dealer ship so they're discounted to like $350-$450 with 3 extra mags!!

agreed, accuracy is alright but the rest of it is pure garbage. direct impingement gas systems do nothing but shit carbon and heat into the chamber and then we have the separated bolt and charger thats just asking to create jams for no fucking reason, an extremely awkward sight layout that requires you to do elevation before windage, a heavy steel firing pin that will slamfire in very few chamberings, a cumbersome spring and buffer layout, cheap stamped steel mags that bend easily and shit their contents into the chamber and lets not forget some completely non abidexterous controls. the ar-15 rifles and derivatives were a mistake in the sixties and should have been retired as soon as the ar-18 was made available. in fact many current allied battle rifles are BASED on the highly reliable ar-18 action (g36, k1, l82, type 89, etc) anyway, what im saying is that the army no buying us the M8 is killing joes and that if eugene stoner were still alive id kick the motherfucker square in the balls for that aluminum pile of crap he saddled us with

spiffy not matching anything uniforms with super awesome giving my position away velcro and ir tabs. why be tactical when we can try to be trendy? clearly my life in the field is worth less than some dickface's recruitment numbers. i sincerely miss the days when the army had real enemys and focused on keeping the 10-20% of the army that actually FIGHTS sharp. is it any wonder that i bought my ghillie from the RUSSIANS?
