You got a huge rack?
Or spent the money on guns?

The problem is, the sooner you give into one bug the sooner the next comes along.

I need help

Do I need a 50cal to defend my neighbors shower?

Do I need a 50cal to defend my neighbors shower?

Hell yes you do. And what's more American than an anti-materiel pistol?

2 of them?

 

[Brewer]

2 of them?

Two is one and one is none. Besides, you got two hands, right?

 

[42!]

Just do it already, why should I be alone in spending too much on guns

 

[DW357]

Skip the surgery and spend it on guns.

But seriously, we're not going to stop until you have a DE, OP.

I dunno. Between not being able to find one (at a decent price anyway) and the potential reliability issues, I'm starting to rethink getting one at the moment. Unless I find a nice one for like a $1k and it's a no brainer at that price.

I had been bidding on this one but I know the price is going to go full retard in the last couple hours. Right now with shipping and transfer fees, I'd be into it for $1600+ assuming I win by bidding $1520 which I doubt.

Then there's this one which is an older IWI model. He relisted it this afternoon. No one placed a bid for $1500 previously.

Get it, you want it!
It will make you feel good.
And that is all that matters right?

 

[42!]

go ahead, buy it, you know you wanna

The Rockisland auction tomorrow has 2 listed, but they are 50AE and 357, you can still get you bids in. But you need to hurry.

So OP, is all this helping you not to buy the DE?

Face facts bud, your not going to find a DE used for $1k in this current market. Just pause your itch for now and patiently wait for one to come along once the market swings back to a buyers market.

Yup I know. That’s the plan.

Frankly there is no way in hell I would buy a used one unless it was a local deal (or trusted nes guy) / something where you got to test fire it. These guns are too wonky/sensitive/etc to take a flying leap. It'd be one thing if it was 500 bucks but this could be a 1200 or 1500 mistake. The potential to get ones ass kicked for flinting here is high.

 

[meh]

I was just thinking, if I could never sell the DE or trade it to recoup its value, only shoot it, I wouldn't trade my Ruger 44 carbine for a 44 magnum DE.

OP, keep fact #1 in mind: if it isn't a Glock, you don't need it!! Take deep breaths, center your mind on a Glock, and go "OOOM" (or something like that)!

We’re only having this discussion because Glock doesn’t make perfection chambered in .44 or .50.

Very good points. I don’t want to go down that path

This guy voted for Biden. Keep that in mind.

If Glock doesn't make it, you don't need it!

Edit needed , and executed. No need to thank me. Lol

 

[Brewer]

If it isn't a Sig, you don't need to worry about dropping it!!

Fixed your fix for you. You’re welcome.
