Weapons!

[Shru1kan]

So, Escapists, what weapons are you proficient in using? Anything that is traditionally used for self defense, sparring, firing ranges counts.

I myself can lay claim to (as in use with complete confidence, and do cool tricks with):

Balisong (My newest toy, my god this thing is fun. (It's the Spy's knife in TF2 for those who don't know))

Fixed blades up to 9 inches

Folding knives up to 3.5 inches

And to a much lesser degree a 6 foot staff

Actually once had a original Katina in my possession. We sold it to a museum but man I loved to practice sword fighting with it, would be good in case a idiot with a knife broke in.

 

[Rasputin1]

Well, I'm not full trained in either aspect, but I'll answer your questions in two aspects.

Online, The weapons I have used most/trained with, would be the Ak:47/Barrett 50.Cal.

Offline, as in reallife, The most training I've had with anything would be my bokken. (for those uneducated, a Bokken, is a wooden sword used for sparring.)

Those are really fun. One of my friends recently got an authentic Mushashi katana, and I keep bugging him to let me play with it. Man that thing cut through an ash sapling as big as my wrist with no problem.

 

[Tallim]

Longbow from when I was younger though way out of practice now.

 

[Lacsapix]

I've got some fighting sticks, nunchucks (pretty sure its wrong spelled) and a trowing knife
of course I have some knive's in the toolbox but those are tools not weapons.

 

[Ftaghn To You Too]

Rifles, pistols, and swords (Such as a Gladius or Katana) in a pinch.

Edit: Also nunchucks,short bo, long bo, Shinai, and sais. All are probably misspelled, and all are from Martial Arts training.

 

[sketch_zeppelin]

blades, fixed or otherwise up to 6in.
i'm a decent shot with rifles.

 

[Brikson]

I became rather good with an ax after some trees fell on my yard. I'm willing to wager few knocked down trees could best me now. Also a darn good shot with a bolt action rifle we fired off in camp. Been awhile though

 

[ShadowKatt]

I'm proficient with knives, mostly because I dislike using guns. With a knife, I know that I'm guarunteed one good shot with a concealed blade, and I feel confident that if I needed to, I could disarm, disable, or destroy anyone in one shot. With a knife, you don't get two.

I'm also an excellent shot with a rifle every time I've fired one, but again, I don't care for guns. I think I could be a hell of a sniper if I put effort into it.

I can also hold my own with a staff, but I wouldn't want to test it.

 

[General BrEeZy]

.22 rifle, 12 gauge shotgun, compound bow (all thanks to scout camp XD)
and due to me practicing them on my own dial, my fists and feet. i do have a tough head too, so i'd use that in a fight roflcopter XDD

Q.E.D.

 

[Lono Shrugged]

I'm quite good with a reflex bow. I can hit a head size target consistantly at 100 feet. (no sights) Won a skeet shooting competition a few years back and can swing a hatchet with the best of them. I am also a master of harsh language

 

[XJ-0461]

Ummm... My fists? Though my skill with those is still questionable.

 

[FallenJellyDoughnut]

I can fight rather well with a katana, sword, and knives and can throw knives rather well

 

[xmbts]

Well I've never really used knives or guns or anything like that but I'm fairly confident that i could smack the shit out of stuff with a baseball bat.

 

[Paksenarrion]

Proficient in? None.

Trained with?

M-16 A2
M203 Grenade Launcher Attachment
M249 SAW
M240G
M40 Cal
MK19
Bayonet
AT-4
Fragmentation Grenades

I'm not counting any martial arts since I don't have a black belt in any of them.

 

[Cryogaijin]

My best would probably be my hunting rifle. I can hit a man-sized target consistantly at 500 yards all day long.

I'm also fairly good at trap and sporting clays, so a 12 gauge would be good.

 

[steevee]

Um, I'd say the SA80, used it at cadets all the time.

I can hit a moving, man sized target at 200 metres 2 out of 3 times. At 100 it's about the same. Not moving up to 400 metres I can get a chest shot no problem, thats the furthest I've shot.

 

[Latinidiot]

I am quite good with my bare fists, but a stick or sword does fine.

 

[Sonicron]

I know my way around one-handed swords, and I'm somewhat skilled in the use of sai and nunchakus, though I don't rise above a mediocre level in either of the latter two.
Aside from that I'm an excellent marksman.
