Traditional vs In-line Pistol


Recommended Posts

hey everyone,

hope we all had a good xmas. however, santa didnt get me a traditional ML like i had asked for. lol

so it lead me to lookin through Big-C online and as i was lookin to buy a traditional kit gun, for roughly the same price i came across this guy

optimapistol.jpg

being that i have an Optima rifle, i was thinking it would be super cool to have the pistol as well. plus hunting with a ML pistol would be "AWESOMOUS"

in recent yrs my goal has been to hunt with different weapons and i had full intention of using a traditional ML next season until now.

needless to say, thats where my delima begins.

do i hunt next season with a traditional ML rifle or an In-line pistol???

no i cant afford bought, heck technically, i cant afford a new toy right now after xmas shoppin lol

has anyone, every hunted with a ML pistol and what are ur thoughts please?

thanks a bunch in advance and happy new yrs ever1

Just make sure that it is tapped for iron sights, if not that is another cost that you will have to think of. I shortened a rifle barrel down for a Thompson frame that was built into a pistol, and installed sights on it for a guy last summer and he was planning on hunting with it this past ML season, I have not heard how he did but did get a chance to talk with before season and he loved the way it shot. He use shooting sticks to steady his shots and said it was really accurate at the 100 yrd mark he sighted it in at.
