Remington 870 express will out shoot many guns that cost much more. Less than $300.

Federal HYDRA-SHOK 147 grain. \n\nNow, you need to make sure it works and feeds well and shoots fairly accurately in you own weapon, just like they all said. If it does, you have selected a powerful 9mm round with superior stopping power and proven reliability that is commonly available at most shops. No point in choosing an ammo you can't find. \n\nI recommend you stock up and quick. Nasty Nancy Pelosi will be taking that pistol away from you real soon if she gets her way.

Try a Springfield XD in 9mm. I have one in .45 acp and love it. I have put 4000 rounds through it in a month and hasn't failed yet. I have tried every type of round I can get my hands on and have yet to have a failure to feed or a misfire. Springfield has several different combinatios, 3" subcompact, 4" inch and 5" inch barrel lenghts. Every one has a built in accesory rail. In which many other manufatures cost extra for that feature. Just a little advice. Gunbroker.com has several auctions for they many configurations for under $500.

Ladysmith .38 (Smith & Wesson)\n\nRevolver, easy to load and operate. No exposed hammer to get caught on clothing or in purse.\n\nOh, not much of a recoil either.

the tippmann 98 custom is a great gun for around 170. it has an accuracy range of 150 feet. that's comes with a face mask, a hopper, a 9 oz co2 tank and a squeegee.  also its really the only one you/ll ever need because you can customize it to your style of play.  i bought mine about 3 years ago.  i have been through hell and back with that thing and it still works like it came out of the box.  i put a flatline barrel and a stock on mine and it increased the performance enough to compete with those $1000+ guns.  people say its very hard to compete withand they have to put 4 people on me because i am so accurate.  thats the one you need to get.

JT guns arent that good, I suggest a Spyder for begineers. But if you want a JT, Action Village is the best place.

You could get a decent beginner package for that much at many retail stores, such as Dicks or Wallmart, but to get the most bang for your buck check online sites for used, or refurbished products.  At www.actionvillage.com, you can get a Spyder Imagine, an excellent electric gun for a beginner, for $75 because it is remanufactured.  Also check out the Buy/Sell/Trade section of www.pbnation.com.  There are many good gun deals available, including used Tippman 98 customs, arguably the best beginner gun, for $70.  There are also many other guns for sal, I myself am selling a mech Spyder, CO2, mask, and several other accessories for about $100.  You can also get tanks, masks, and almost any paintball related item that you want on there for well below retail price.  Also, check your local proshop, they will usually have good deals, and be more than willing to help you.

Welcome to the world of target shooting. \n\nA couple of things..\n \nFirst - enroll in a handgun class offered by a multitude of instructors. If none are local you may wish to find one out of area. This will give you the basics of handgun operation.\n\nSecond - decide what extent you wish to obtain. Set goals and pursue them.\n\nThird - Now that you're familiar with equipment go buy the best you can afford.  Don't be afraid to buy used..some great deals out there for beginners.\n\nVideos are nice. Books aren't much for experience but offer good tips on equipment. The hands on instructor is inexpensive (usually 50 bucks an hour) and has guns you can use for the course.\n\nSome nice entry level accurate guns:\nRuger Mark II Competition Slabside - 22Lr - about $300 used\nSmith and Wesson model 19 - 38spl - about $150 used\nSpringfield mil spec - 45acp - $400 new\n\nGood luck and congratulations on choosing a great hobby.\nPS. wanna try something really fun? go to a search engine and type in Cowboy Action Shooting. You might get hooked...Pard.

the best kind is the tippmann 98 custom.  you can customize the crap out of it and still get more than your money's worth in accuracy.  plus it would be a mega gun that can compete with and costs less that an autococker.  Ive got a flatline barrel and stock on mine and i get really good performance out of it

Bound's hubby here:\n\nDuck hunting can be very demanding, and once you try it, you may decide it is not for you. For this reason alone, I would strongly suggest you get an inexpensive, quality shotgun. You definitely want the back-up third shot, which means you want either a pump or a semi-auto. Semi-auto's can provide reliable and accurate follow-up shots, but can be finicky.\n\nI am very fond of the Remington line, especially since Winchester Model 12s and Model 97s are wearing out! My suggestion would be a Remington Model 870. I prefer the higher level "Wingmaster", but for a starter gun, you would be well served by getting the 870 Express. \n\nThe 870 Express is a quality shotgun with an aluminum alloy receiver and a phosphate (parkerized) finish that will hold up to duck hunting conditions. The stock is a "hardwood", so any dents, dings, or scratches that find their way on the stocks will not elicit too many tears! You can get an 870 Express for between $230 and $330.\n\nThe 870 Wingmaster is a higher end shotgun, with a machined steel receiver and "blued" finish. The Model 870 was first introduced in the 1950s ... one of its major selling points is the twin bars on the pump action, they reduce twisting and binding, providing more reliable functioning of the shotgun. An 870 Wingmaster will set you back between $550 and $1200+, depending on the grade you purchase. \n\nPesonally, I would take a Remington anyday over a Mossberg ... no offense to those that like the Mossberg, but I have found quality is not synonymous with their name or product!\n\nGood luck!
