Good ol 50 magnums for me, blast a hole right thru you the size of a wartermelon,even bigger if i found the othor one.

I don't know much about real guns, but the sniper rifle used on the movie SWAT to take out the police helicopter was sweet.

The M4 Carbine, just stick a suppressor, an Acog 4x scope, and an M-203 grenade launcher on it and I'll be fine.

I am not familiar with the .50 cal magnum round, care to enlighten us? The only .50 cal rounds I know a lot about are the .50AE used in the Desert Eagle and the .50BMG used in the Barrett M82A1 and other anti-materiel rifles. Personally, I think the Desert Eagle .50AE is an overrated, oversized, impractical piece of crap. I'd take a 9x19mm SIG Sauer P226 over it any day (if it's good enough for the SAS, it's good enough for me). If you want take down a helicopter, I'd recommend the Mechem NTW-20 - 20mm or 14.5mm. The Halo sniper rifle is based on it and looks almost identical to it.

Granted the M4A1 carbine does look cool, but in terms of performance it doesnt compare to other rifles. Even an M16 has better performance, if you were to fire an M16A2 and and M4A1 you would notice a difference in accuracy and muzzle velocity. The M4 was just adopted by the US armed forces as a close-range weapon (that is what the carbine deignation is for), but for this compactness many things are sacrificed due to the different type of ammo (same caliber, different design).

Now the G36 is a very nice rifle, probably the best designed modern firearm.

My favorite would have to be an MP5, more specifically the MP5SD. Simple SMG design, nice accuracy for an SMG, and silenced weapons are just fun as hell to fire (and it doesnt make me go deaf after firing it).

And I think by .50 magnum, he means .50 AE.

stonewall, I think the M16 series is quite overrated. If I had to choose one of the rifles based on it, I'd take the SR-25 - accurate 7.62x51mm goodness.

The M16 is a great gun in itself, but there are many better quality assault rifles out there. Like I said, the G36 series are probably the most well designed assault rifles of this day and age.

If I was going to have a powerful handgun, I wouldn't take some sissy Desert Eagle. I'd take a Taurus Raging Bull .454 Casull. That gun is friggin' manly, but only used by enthusiasts and Mexican authorities. Since it's so light due to a titanium construction, it can recoil so much on firing that it will dent your forehead.
