    I was reference self defense when talking about using a gun as a tool. As a hobby / range gun it is also fun, but arguing levels of fun is an excersize in futility.

    You can get a semi auto that fires 22lr, and that is cheap as hell, but it’s not actually all that important, as compared to a semi auto for self defence.

    As far as I know, BLM land is just about the only option available to everyone for night shooting.

      Gotcha, that’s very fair. To me a lever gun seems more the route I’d go for fun. For self defense or practical purposes I can definitely see the sense in a semi automatic rifle.

      And I wasn’t aware it was allowed anywhere, thank you very much for mentioning that!
