Help me spend some money

[SJan]

So its the holiday season, I'm not married, no kids, no girlfriend this year so I want to buy myself something nice this year. Looking to spend about 400-500, firearms related of coarse.

Here is my collection so far:

AR15 5.56mm A2 configuration -also have ciener 22 kit
Ar15 5.56mm M4 configuration with eotech and 3x
Marlin 1894 Lever action 357
M1 Garand 30-06 from CMP
AK 7.62x39 Romanian
HI point carbine 9mm with bushnell sight
Ruger 10/22 LTR
Ruger 10/22 with heavy barrel and nice scope
Stoeger STF 3000 12g o/u -cheapo skeet gun
Mossberg 500 12g 28"
S&W M&P 9mm full size
Walther PPS 9mm
Walther P22

I have what I consider a decent supply of ammo on hand for each caliber firearm. I understand many of you have thousands upon thousands of rounds on hand, so I could just stock up.

I was thinking I could use a revolver, a 1911, a nice bolt action rifle, a 22 target pistol, a 308 battle rifle...... see this is where the problem is, I can't decide!

What do you think?

 

[Masterguns]

for 22 target can't go wrong with a Ruger mkIII, cheap to shoot and fun.

 

[EddieCoyle]

Start reloading.

 

[vicpinto]

Mosin Nagant 91/30 or an SKS.

 

[bigjim]

get the 10/22 some ammo and a bottle of laphroig 15 year.

 

[Supermoto]

you will far more out of a training course then another gun

 

[italianppf2]

for 22 target can't go wrong with a Ruger mkIII, cheap to shoot and fun.

true, i have the mk II and it's a great target pistol.

 

[fencer]

I'd go for a nice revolver

 

[SJan]

I am set up for reloading shot shells, as well as 357. I will eventually move on to other calibers. What type of training or where do you recomend?

 

[Pondhill]

I would go for the cmp garand. It's a part of history!

It really depends on what type of shooting you want to get better at

I'm not married, no kids, no girlfriend

Merry christmas. The holiday blessings came early this year for you...

 

[WanMan99]

A revolver and a 1911 are glaring holes in your collection to date. Although anything you get is a personal preference. I would go with a S&W 629 (.44 mag) next... Cause that's what I want next...

 

[PaulD]

I'm not married, no kids, no girlfriend this year so I want to buy myself something nice this year.

That money will get you a high end hooker, or maybe a training class at the SIG Academy.

 

[MaroonedinMA]

That money will get you a high end hooker, or maybe a training class at the SIG Academy.

What's wrong with both?

Oh, $500+/- I see...For $1000 you could consider both which is quantitatively better than one or the other.

I feel sad for You.



Sorry.

 

[mac1911]

I would possible get a few items

1911- I only have owned S&W and had no issues ALTHOUGH my want list is a WWII era US property 1911

M1A 30 carbine always a good balance for the CMP Garand

another cmp garand or possible springfield 03 or a M1917 for bolt battle rifle.

Hmmmm can you see where my mind is........

 

[Realtor MA]

Find a used S&W 1911 for around $600

 

[PCK9]

FA-91?

.308

 

[TY43215]

I am set up for reloading shot shells, as well as 357. I will eventually move on to other calibers. What type of training or where do you recomend?

If I had the cash and the time, I would go

[TheWookie]

I agree with two suggestions - a good 1911, and some formal training.

The later isn't as tangible and you can't show it off -- until it saves your ass.

For a couple hundred bucks you can jump on a flight and go down south, get some sunshine and heat -- and some of the best weapons training on the planet. For real.

[ARV]

98K Mauser, SKS, One of the Mosin variations, my personal choice is the Finnish M39. For .308 I like my FAL, but dont make the mistake I did and pick up one with a HESS receiver. Mine is out of spec. and I've heard stories about others. (Ive been told Imbel receivers are the way to go) I would like to pick up a .308 G3/CETME at some point. .22 = any of the Ruger .22's pistols are nice.

 

[SJan]

So far all this thread has done is make my want list longer. But that's ok keep em coming

 

[drumenigma]

My vote is for buy more ammo. You have a nice list of guns there. Give them more range time with the ammo and as a result help make you a better shooter.
