A shotgun that's fitted and works great for any of the clay target games. There's a left hand Beretta DT11 at Collector's for the low-low price of $9100... Granted, they'll drop 20% for Black Friday and Collectors isn't where you go for a bargain, but still... |

Against the rules, but....
A precision .308 rifle with a Nightforce or US Optics scope and an "L" Suppressor from Thunderbeast or similar, on a sturdy bipod. Full cerakote job. |

It would definitely cost an arm and a leg to feed if you used it regularly, but certainly no worse than the two horses sitting in my back yard eating money and pooping work. |

Lots of cool suggestions in this thread. I would look for an SP5 with an SD conversion. It is the coolest toy I can think of that I would be able to afford to shoot the crap out of.
SBR it, add a stock, drop in a binary trigger, and spend my life savings on mags and ammo.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Wolfy42: Something with a fun switch. I bought my two SWD-11 for $2800 each. $3275 after shipping stamp and transfer. One has a lage upper and one is pristine still in the box. In 2001, I bought my SWD M11/9 for $975. I was newly married with 3 month old twins so spending more was, unfortunately, out of the question. Looking back I should have maxed out a credit card and bought 8 more. Oh well, live and learn.. I've since picked up a Lage Max11 Mk2 and a bunch of 30 and 50 round Shockwave Zmags for it and the upper is an absolute game changer. Just need an optic.  Attached File |
