Hello I want to learn to shoot. I have shot bb guns and pellet guns growing up. Although I never shot a gun. Is starting with a .22lr a wise idea? I was thinking:
  • Browning Buck Mark Micro
  • 1911 22 Compact

idk if there are any better options.

>>6451 hope you didn't already go ahead and buy that shitty .22
Why not save up a bit and buy something practical and useful like a decent AR with irons that you can potentially mount a scope or optic to?

>>6451

its like going to a gym and atarting off with 2.5kg dumbells

You want to start off with a harder round, like a 9mm, a .38, maybe 45. Pistols are generally harder to control than rifles, even with far less powerful rounds. So if you can keep a pistol on target than a rifle should be easier

How much money do you have? There's no reason not to start with a .22 if you have a good amount of funds. If you can only afford one gun buy a 9mm pistol or a 556 ar15.

Honestly red dots have gotten so good and so cheap I don't even think irons are a necessity anymore (when it comes to rifles, I will always run irons on a pistol). You may as well learn how to use them but don't get too hung up on it.

Optics are cool for stationary shooting but I feel like in most real engagements in a war situation you're likely not even going to bother shouldering a rifle to aim down the sights but instead just mag dump whatever you have from a raised but not aimed position.

This is mostly just from the Ukraine war i've noticed most people arent running sights, they tend to get broken quickly when you're needing to dive into a trench to avoid a FPV, and because of the effectiveness of things that arent guns most fights between guns seem to happen almost face to face.

Not to say dont bother even learning to aim, do that, just learn how to shoot and move and how to spray accurately/walk bullets to the target without shouldering is probably going to be more practical than shooting static.
