The most fun guns to shoot are the ones that are stupid.
I have a 8.5" barreled PTR in .308. Basically turns .308 into .300 blackout with enough flash and bang to make everyone nearby deaf and blind. Completely pointless gun - but man is it hilarious fun.
It is a shame how many people forget to just have fun. So many "if it can't be used in "wAr" or for home defense it isn't worth having" dingles running around. If I had a dollar for everytime someone critiqued one of my guns cause it wasn't "tactically sound" or "useless" I would have enough to buy another couple boxes of ammo. Variety is the spice of life, and life is too long to only one ARs and Glocks.
Hey - I said it was cool... it is... and it's also stupid... I "THINK" I'd love to shoot one... once... so I can say that I did... and it would be stupid...
My kid's first self-purchased long-gun is a Tavor TS-12. It is tons of fun... and stupid... Laying waste to a field of water bottles with 16 rounds of bird shot is a blast. On the other hand, he's not a swat officer or Marine doing CQB house clearing so a 15+1 capacity, semi-auto, bullpup 12ga with a very unique and somewhat complicated manual of arms, is... well... kinda stupid...
