Guns to shoot for Fun: Gun Guys Ep. 51 with Bill Wilson and Ken Hackathorn

Some times you just need to have some fun. When they aren't training for self defense, what guns do Bill and Ken take to the range? Some of the guns they enjoy the most are the ones they grew up shooting. Some of the guns they enjoy are unexpected. But as a Gun Guy it is important to know every platform.

Old fart gun guys who have been there, done that and blazed the trail for the rest of us are the BEST guys!!

[@wfrentzel7503]

Enjoyed the discussion! You even mentioned some guns I own and love to shoot!

[@LizzyTexBorden]

It is nice to hear somebody finally talk about shooting for fun instead of all this tacticool and self-defense stuff. I remember when it was all about fun.

[@waynecastleman1363]

It's what we make of it , older wiser fellows jump off the trend wagon and go back to our roots.

[@jeremyedowd]

​@Wayne Castleman I'm not that old-- was enjoying all the choices made here. Good memories of range times.

[@larryblake7554]

That’s all we do, shoot for fun. I have Colt SAAs, 1911’s, and Sigs…love them all. My ‘tactics’ involve the high ground with a good rifle 🤠.

[@davidcbrainard]

A 10/22 is hard to beat for fun.

[@546people]

My 10/22 is the my straightest shooter. I’m no long distance expert. I get frustrated because most of my guns sights are not dialed in. Ruger iron sights work great.

[@MrRufusjax]

Yup. Agreed. Super fun rifle.

[@cashields4660]

[@mp6163]

It is refreshing to hear these two explain they own and love a bunch of different guns. I love guns, all of them. Well, most of them. People have explained how I am misguided and "beware of the guy that owns 1 gun". I am so tired of that analogy. Would not mind if I never hear it again. Own many guns with plenty of ammo for as many as you like.

[@mattschmitt9924]

Beware the guy with one gun because he knows how to use it. Beware the guy with a lot of guns because he knows how to use yours.

[@9ZERO6]

Nobody cares how many guns or ammo somebody has though. The man with one gun may have 10's of thousands of rounds through it, and 10 thousand more rounds in reserve. Point me towards a few cases in which a upstanding law-abiding citizen has use more than one gun in a gunfight. I can point you towards many many many many threads and with someone thinks they will. They are in tacictcool fantasy land.

[@rodgerm5311]

All of mine are fun to shoot.

Thanks, Ken, for that "staple gun trigger" analogy of a Glock. I have no use for one, but i can use it.

[@francismarion8879]

My funnest gun is my 16" barrel lever action .357mag rifle. I have lots of guns but that is definitely the most fun. Its made by Rossi and has about 500rds of .38 and .357 throught it without any problems.

[@Crangaso]

Thank you, Ken! Twenty years I've been trying to enunciate just why I hate Glock triggers. Staple gun fits perfectly.

[@mackellyman5642]

Not sure if that analogy fits, love all my manual/electric/pneumatic staple guns, just have to focus on the task at hand.

[@MrPerry61]

I can’t stand trigger safeties. That’s why I like Sigs and revolvers

[@brettheiner7125]

There is a reason there are so many options in after market Glock triggers…

[@KSFWG]

I retired 10 years ago and have been re-living my childhood ever since it seems. I collect Smith & Wesson revolvers. I had a subscription to several gun magazines. I would drool over all those beautiful S&W revolvers and when I got old enough, I would save and buy a S&W revolver. After school / summer jobs, birthday money (Thank you Aunt Marge, R.I.P.) it all went towards guns -- mostly S&W revolvers. First collection was lost in divorce. 2nd collection was lost to a thief. When I retired I decided to rebuild some of my lost gun collections. I have 12 K-frames and 8 N-frames. I have other guns, a Tokarev M57, a WWII 1911A1, a couple of AR-15's, etc. But when I go shooting for fun, I've usually got a "suitcase" full of S&W revolvers.

[@ronniechun-akana6433]

Happy Holidays, This discussion is fun. This is what the new generation missed, Have Fun.

[@gowilsoncombat]

Happy Holidays to you too!

[@smithwesson7765]

My 100 year old Winchester '92 saddle ring carbine in 44 WCF. It's a great gopher gun because the gophers generally just laugh at me as the rounds thump into the dust. For a handgun and I know this sounds crazy, I enjoy shooting my S&W 4.25 inch model 629. The results of a 240 grain load at 1350 fps on a five gallon bucket full of water and newspaper are very entertaining. And yes, I'm an old fart, raised on Lee Enfields and Cooey rimfires.

[@brianshuler6951]

Being in the 4th generation of a Texas ranching family, my Granddad taught me to shoot his .22 gallery gun pump rifle in 1960 when I was 7 years old. He gave it to me a few years later and I still have and shoot it. Wanting a cowboy gun, I bought one of the first "new model" Single Sixes. That is my favorite revolver. Those .22s are always just plain fun.

[@pistolgrips]

Bill Wilson mentioned “What if you had to use the only gun that is available?” I’m a firm believer in Iggy Piazza’s motto: “Any gun will do if you will do”. That comes with consistent training in the basics. (Haters - if you haven’t trained there - don’t bother.)

[@Paladin1873]

Have Gun, Will Travel was my Dad's favorite western. We used to watch it together when I was small. I now have the entire series on DVD.

[@gowilsoncombat]

Possibly!

[@kevinramsey3490]

I have a dedicated fun gun. It’s a 1908 Vest Pocket in .25acp. It was made in 1913. I can’t imagine ever carrying it but for sheer fun it’s the cream of the crop. I have many many boxes of ammo from before Biden got elected that was sold for “clearance”. I even have it milk jugs at 50 yards with it. I won’t mention how many rounds it took to do that..... but it was fun. Great video as usual!

[@oneshotpete6.591]

I agree Ken the Tokarev pistols are sure fun to shoot as are the mossin nagants…

[@ontheside5942]

I just bought a '60 Remington Nylon 66 to replace the one that was stolen when I went off to the Air Force. My dad bought it for me when I was 12ish from a Sears catalog and had it delivered half-way around the world to Australia, where we were stationed at the time. It was my constant companion in the bush. It never failed me and with little or no maintenance. Glad to have at least a clone of it back again.

[@williamstreet4304]

Oh, I have a Ruger Mk II with a spectacular trigger. When my shooting falls apart, I go back to the Mk II to work on the basics. The .22 is the cartridge that lets me focus on basics. And the Mk II is the gun that lets me do it with ease. 200 rounds through that and I am ready to start working my way up. - .380, .38 spl, .45ACP, .44 spl, .357 I just have to add power slowly after I get the basics.

[@ladonnaghareeb4609]

You are a very wise man.

[@9ZERO6]

The Ruger 10/22 is the comfortable hometown of guns that everyone comes back to eventually.

[@realestatehelpsite]

Love how these two guys talk guns and Bill has no problem talking about his competition is glowing terms.

[@ShaunShearman]

Loved hearing Bill Wilson say 'Python and Ruger' revolvers for fun shootin', there's something about a revolver that is so very different to an auto, maybe it's loading the shells into the cylinder and then dumping them out afterwards but it just feels so rewarding especially with a good quality well made revolver. A great video, one of your best so far, it's nice to have some 'fun' injected back into gun ownership 😁

[@sisleymichael]

I have a 1947 Iver Johnson safety rifle 22LR. It is my favorite. It just shoots so accurately. My Dad got it at a pawn shop years ago and gave it to me when I was 11. I'm 60 now and still gather squirrels once in a while for a meal.

[@jamiecollett8840]

I could listen to these 2 guys talk about ANYTHING! A whole lot of wisdom and experience sitting at that table!

[@ianriordan6382]

Garry Sitton (RIP) once wrote " I have a weakness for old guns and dogs of questionable breeding" With respect, that description could cover Ken's fascination with European and Russian military pistols.

[@oneshotpete6.591]

Smith & Wesson old model 41 …. absolutely funnest gun to shoot

[@andrewbates6840]

As far as pistols, I always have one version at least of a customized Beretta 92, custom 1911, and a HK P7 series pistol when I go to the range.

[@TommyRibs]

Smith and Wesson Revolvers.

[@surfingonmars8979]

Still love shooting my Walther PP .380, with the “MADE IN W. GERMANY” on the frame. Flawless handgun. Also love my basic Springfield Operator 1911 chambered of course in .45 ACP - the trigger still makes me smile….

[@walterminer4990]

Oops hit dislike by accident, sorry I fixed it! Lol. Seriously, I hope it will be a long video! I really enjoy listenting you the both of you!!!! Mainly, I'm closing in on 70 years young. I only have young guys that never shot older revolvers or all steel frame guns! Best to ya',,,,!

[@mostlyharmless4965]

Love my S&W 65-2. First gun I carried and I still love it. I have a Henry 16” ,357 lever-action carbine to supplement it and don’t feel under gummed in the American southwest. It puts a smile on my face….

[@joshuaputman8307]

My son and I love shooting 22lr. He's learned pistol shooting with my 22lr 1911, and will go through all my ammo if I don't stop him 😄

[@sha6mm]

I’m the opposite of you two as a hunter it’s hard to beat a 12ga shotgun. While handguns are fun. To me longer is better as in rifles and shotguns.

[@brettheiner7125]

Also love to hear these guys chat. Range trips vary for me based on mood. Always close out with with the nicer stuff, better 1911s and competition CZs. It is also fun to wail on clays with the scatterguns. And see how far off you can plug a milk jug with a nice rifle. Or plink with .22s. Or throw huge chunks of lead with black powder…

[@shawndrag1009]

Double action is fun! I think it's crucial to learn different platforms and triggers. It kind of drives me nuts the emphasis put on striker fired, polymer, solid wall, 3lb trigger. Learn to shoot the different guns and triggers out there.

[@gvines]

I completely agree

[@ElainesDomain]

I'm an old guy and really like my Smith K frame 19--4,, 4'' barrel. Wifey likes her N frame 28-2 6'' barrel but carries a 19-5 3'' barrel. She never fails to draw attention at the range with the 28-2. Those that are shooting 9mm need to know what the heck that ka-boom is.

[@chadcarroll3727]

I rediscovered a Ruger 10/22 recently. Bought one for my 13 yr old son. I have a blast shooting it!

[@PeteHemdem]

My fun guns: .22 Ruger Mark II & 1022 rifle, Marlin 336 .30-30 and my little .25 Colt pocket pistol!

[@bp814]

I am a big fan of the S&W 460 Mag. Fun gun for me!

[@MVEZombie]

I just took my 10/22 and my TX22 out yesterday morning. 22s are easily the most fun you can have shooting in my opinion.

[@halverde6373]

57 and started with.22 when I was 9. Had dozens of wheel and pistol and rifles. Sears, Savage Smith and Ruger. Shot about a million.22 rounds. Made me very proficient into the higher calibers. A .22 will be the best gift you can give to a young man. A younger boy a BB/.177 is a great gift to start them off in shooting skills.

[@Iceaxehikes]

Henry lever action axe .410. By far the funnest gun I shoot. #2 Winchester model 58 single shot boys rifle in 22 lr. So simple and crude it's fun. #3 Ruger Blackhawk 44 mag 7 1/2" barrel.

[@slackleashdogtraining3598]

“The only purpose for a pistol, is to fight your way to your shotgun” Col. Jeff Cooper. spoken to my ear in 1990. Talk about FUN, shooting game birds over a faithful setter, or pointer dog is THE most fun I’ve had in firearms. Regarding CQB “The winner will almost certainly be the one who scores the first anatomically significant hit, a shotgun is an unfair advantage when everything is moving and you have no time to waste.”.

[@shellyrobinett9971]

It is nice to see guns for fun! I'm somewhat handicapped (injured while rescuing a lady when I was a firefighter) and, too, enjoy shooting for fun. The vast majority of my range time is for fun. I have an impossible time choosing which guns to bring so I, inevitably, bring 4 or more pistols, 3 ar pistols, 2 pcc's and a couple ak variant rifles. Just can't make my mind up! (Probably part of my "handicap"). Keep sharing your experiences with us. I know I have learned quite a bit just by watching. At nearly 68 I just can't get enough

[@stevekafka]

Great to see this casual conversation between these two well known firearms pros, and would like many more please, from Arizona , where we pride ourselves in the second amendment we have been blessed with …

My FUN guns to just go shoot'em up in the outdoors would be my S&W Compact .22LR pistol my S&W .38s&w Regulation Police 5 shot I-frame revolver and my Colt .45 SAA revolver of which all 3 I can't seem to miss hitting my targets at least out to 15 yards and they all 3 put a smile on my face every time !!!!

[@SCH292]

My fun guns just to go range plinking outdoors or indoors will be my old man's Ruger Mini 30(189 series and it's 1996 production line), his 10/22, his 20 gauge 870 about 28 inch turkey gun and his Saturday Px22 cal which only works as long as the 22 are CCI brand. Some occasions I might plink with my crappy cheap RIA 38 Super. Lol. People these days..they worry too much about what is META or not, forgot about trying out other platforms, have fun with other platforms, forgot about jokes. meme and stereotype.

Staple gun trigger...that was funny. I am of the old military surplus ilk. A pile of cheap surplus ammo helped. A rattley Fin M39 and Norinco SKS or old WWII pistol. The 22LR was my first gun and taught me....funny enough an old Hi Standard Centinal has served me well.

For fun? All of them. That's why I own several types. And each has it's own purpose. But, the PMR 30 is particularly entertaining with minimal recoil and massive fireballs.

[@johnknouse8846]

I’m a huge fan of the Tokarev also. I really love the 7.62X25 round.

[@82lowe36id]

Another great episode. A 22 is a good choice for sure. SA revolvers and my M1 Garand usually get fired on fun range days. Also a CZ handgun usually goes. Also throw my 22 kit on my Beretta 92 for some fun.

[@johnmullholand2044]

For "fun", you can't beat black powder guns. Big boom, big cloud of white smoke, and the satisfying thump of a large caliber bullet hitting the target, and then the methodical reloading procedure. Really forces you to slow down and ENJOY shooting again.

[@karenalbin6589]

You generally enjoy shooting what you grew up shooting. For me, it is the Winchester 62A gallery rifle, a Ruger Mark I pistol, and a Ruger 357 Blackhawk revolver.

[@jeremyedowd]

Really enjoyed this clip/conversation. I'm not a collector like these guys but love taking my 22s and revolver to the range. I get a few magazines of practice with my defense guns (Beretta 92 and Ruger LCP), but then enjoy putting a sight-in target 50 yds down-range and being dead-on with a 22 rifle or pistol--or my grandfather's S&W varmint revolver. And a 38/357mag revolver is just fun--easy to clean, precise, light SA trigger pull, and enough mass to balance recoil. The patrons shooting 45/9MM Semi-Autos , AR-style, and shotguns are just rapid firing at 15 yds for self-defense training and not having as much fun. And the folks that work the range notice--before I leave staff always ask about my variety of firearms. And the 22LR is so dirt cheap-- I can shoot hundreds of rounds for the price of a 50 round box of 9MM or 38's; and I don't feel sore or tired after. The sound makes people smile--or chuckle too.

[@ridgewalker2416]

“Have gun will travel reads the card of a man. A knight without armor in a savage land…Paladin, Paladin where do you roam. Paladin, Paladin far far from home.” Obviously I never watched it except every Saturday night before Death Valley Days. Sadly, I miss those days. A 4” S&W K-22 was the first I ever shot. It was at the local police department where they had Saturday shooting lessons for anyone interested.

[@kbjerke]

GLAD to hear from you two "Old Farts..." LOL I'm one, as well. 71 going on 25... Been shooting for more than 60 years, and thoroughly enjoy it. I'm not much of a hunter, however. Small game and a duck or two, every few years, just to keep "in the game." Recently considered getting into CAS, since I love SAAs so much. Maybe "Ol' Duffer" should be my handle. Stay well, guys!

[@poonbandit9924]

Most fun gun is my p320 with wilson combat grip module, great trigger stock fits like a glove and with red dot sight it’s a blast, also a great tool

[@johnnail532]

[@gowilsoncombat]

[@414Mustang1]

Being from New Jersey, I don't have to worry about a carry gun, so all I have is guns I shoot for fun. The first gun I ever bought for myself was a Ruger Blackhawk in .45 Colt (a single-action, just like Paladin used). Today, 50 years later, what I shoot is one of my Ruger Mark II pistols (I have 3: a Target model with a red dot, a Competition Target model with FireSights and a 22/45 with Firesights), an SR22, a Single-Six or one of my Blackhawk .45s. If I need something for home defense, one of the .45s will do quite nicely.

[@ColeDedhand]

I'm with you guys on shotguns. I have 3 tacticool scattergats but when it's time to head to the range they stay in the safe. I do love to bird hunt and have a nice Browning for that.

[@Siskiyous6]

I carried a revolver in my LEO carrier, and only have 2 Semi-Autos. With a revolver, from 17 to 500 the controls are the same. Muscle memory should not be discounted during stressful events. At 62 I have spent a lot of years not giving a hoot what anyone else thinks of my style in this world. For fun the K-frame 38 Specials are inexpensive to shoot, capable of game up to deer, and I can hit with one. Remember shooting game is fun! I also have a Japanese Mortar, and I take out a 1907 Winchester SLR in 351. Shooting fun is an individual thing. I was an NRA Instructor for 25 years, I have never shot a Glock! With neighbors all around buckshot is my tool for social work at home.

[@unclecracker5010]

I'm 44 and bought my first firearm April 2020!! And fell in love shooting it!!! And then I bought 2 more firearms. They're handguns a SHIELD PLUS 9mm SHIELD 45acp and WALTHER PDP Full size. Got em for self defense, But I sure do love shooting them. Wish I could find a nice OUTDOOR RANGE here in PHILLY, or close to it!!! I PRACTICE frequently. But love to shoot for fun.

[@MrRufusjax]

Happiness for me is a brick of .22 and a couple of .22 pistols and a rifle and a lot of cans, shotgun hulls, clods of dirt, random rocks and a few golf balls or ping pong balls scattered about the range.

[@PetuniaIii-pd1ww]

We are friends...! that is the wife and I about once a week...sure, bigger bullets can be fun, too, but cheap bulk .22lr is what blows our hair back...hitting a golf ball at a 100 yards with funky ammo can easily take a dozen shots, works for us...

[@LYLEWOLD]

"Fun gun" to me is a 22, pistol or rifle. Pistol is Browning, or Ruger. Rifle is a 10-22 with wooden stock (current favorite has an old-timey Mannlicher stock - love that gun).

[@shanegress1138]

My fun gun to shoot is a flintlock. If I have the extra time to clean it. If you can shoot a flintlock accurately it is an awesome feeling.

[@vanceg4901]

Weird but I really enjoy shooting my Beretta 3032 Tomcat. When I go to my brothers 100 acre range by far I enjoy shooting the 12 gauge shotgun the most. Something about that snappy recoil and huge impact on target feels so good.

love listening to you guys talk about likes and dislikes, I'm always willing to look at what works and doesn't work for others because it can easily translate when you have an open mind about what works for you in any given situation.

My favorite wheel gun is my S&W model 57 with a 6 inch barrel. 41 magnum is an awesome caliber. Bought it up in Alaska in about 91 or so on a fishing trip. It was my very first handgun. We were fishing directly across a creek from a couple of big brownies and it was a definite comfort to have that bad boy on my hip. We, ( bears included, were catching plenty of fish, ) so thankfully I never had to use it except for a little target practice. Great video, it's always fun to reminisce with an old friend. I would always " greet someone " with the trusty 12ga pump myself tho, lol.
