I've decided that I want to buy myself a firearm soon around my 19th birthday since I'll be moving out of my parent's. They've always been very liberal and hated guns. I've only shot a few with my grandpa who had quite a few. I was thinking about starting off with a handgun and getting a rifle for hunting later. I'm not much of a gun nut, but I can handle maintenance.

Guns are shit. They're just plastic that superheat metal projectiles to kill. Nerf or nothing

Here is the poor man's gun list. I suggest with a 9mm to start as base.

bolt action .22lr

A .22 caliber rifle is a good way to cozy up to firearm ownership. The Ruger 10/22 or Marlin 60 are both reliable, time-tested, and not very expensive - both can be had in the $180-200 range brand new. If you have a bit of extra cash, I might even suggest the 10/22 Takedown, which is a version of the 10/22 that's designed to separate into pieces for easy transport (they even come with their own backpack-style carry bag). I have a Takedown and really like it, but it'll cost about $100 more than the standard 10/22.

If you want a nice accessory for that, I'd recommend a Nikon P-Rimfire scope. It's not exactly a "Bradley Cooper in Iraq" kind of scope, but it's a good, solid, basic way to get started.

Welcome to the world of firearm ownership, anon!

>I was thinking about starting off with a handgun
Where I live you have to be 21 to purchase a pistol. If that doesn't apply to you, then it's a good choice to start with, as a pistol can be carried with you everywhere you go (openly or concealed, depending on local laws). 9mm is a good caliber to start with because it is cheap and easy to shoot. Glock, S&W M&P, and Springfield XD are among the most common carry pistols and you can't really go wrong with any of them, just make sure they fit your hand comfortably.

>getting a rifle for hunting later
For a rifle, .22lr is great for plinking/learning to shoot but I would not plan on hunting anything larger than small game (ie rabbits; note you can kill a deer with .22lr but it is considered unethical by most hunters and is downright illegal where I live). A better option would be something in .243 win; its great for prairie dogs and coyotes on up to deer/goat. If you'd rather aim for medium to big game (deer up to hog/elk/brown bear) I suggest at least a .30 caliber bolt action (ie 30-06, .308 win, 7mm are very common). Savage makes very affordable, accurate out of the box rifles; if you want to step up in price the Remington 700 is a highly recommended and proven option.

Poor child, I couldn't imagine my childhood without killing 4 rabbits + a deer every day. Anyways get yourself:
CZ 452
Remington 870
Remington 700 (must be second hand and well loved)
Then build your collection from there.

Yugo SKS or a cheapo AR (Del-Ton or S&W Sport). Don't buy into the .22 crap, and don't go for an expensive caliber like .243 or .308.
>>
Get a Glock 19, M&P Shield or Sig for a handgun. Get a M&P15, SLR107 or HK 94 / HK-g36 for rifle. Get a Mossberg 590, Remington 870 or Benelli M4 for a shotgun

>>33842642
Ar15 or a 22, depending on just how poor you are.
