I will be getting $1200 in the next week, and it is burning a whole in my pockey already. The conditions:
- it should be a firearm unless it is an accesory that is a "must" - not ammo - not any more magazines (I have spent $500 in the last 2 weeks on mags) Here is what I already have Colt AR-15 M4 (had for 2 days now heticThompson .45 "Thommy Gun" Remmington 870 Marine Berretta 96 40 S&W Tuarus 99 9mm Colt government Model .380 Colt .45 Series 80 Springfield Ultra Compact .45 Walther P22 Glock 23 40 S&W Ruger MKII 22/45 Considering Colt 9mm AR-15 (if I can find one) Springfield M1A synthetic stock (My dad's) Remington 700 VS in .308 with a Leupold Mark 4 Other 9mm carbine Or other good suggestions |
|
Everyone should have an M1A, I will have mine soon (on layaway).

Sell the Mini-14. Put that money with your cash to get a Remington PSS or equivalent in 300 win mag or .308. Use the mini-14 cash to get a Leupold tactical scope of some variety.
I don't normally sell guns, but I would make an exception with the Mini-14. It's a real POS. IMHO. Edited to add: If you have an A-Team fetish, keep the Mini-14. |

<waves hand>I am going to give the money to wedge1082<waves hand>
|
|
A Serbu .50BMG receiver ($1195) or a couple of Garands ($500 ea.).
|
|
Damn right!!! |
|
|
3 Danish @$371 delivered from CMP= $1113 Spend the rest on clips. Yes I said CLIPS. |
|
|
Use $750 to buy an NRA Life Membership (might be able to talk them down to $500)
Use the rest to buy a Glock. |

A Remington 700 VS would be nice, too... |
|
|
+1 Remember the Alamo, and God Bless Texas... |
|
|
Remington 700 VS is also on the considering list .308 of course ( i had forgotten it)
|
|
|
If I had 1200 dollars right now I'd pay my Sprint cell phone bill. And probably have about...70 bucks left over. hahaha, eh
|
|
16 quality AR15 lowers. -or- A folding stock "congo" FAL from DSA. -or- a nice AK folder, and 700 rds.
|
|
DSA SA58. Identical to the original FAL, only much, much better.
|
|
You need .357 and a .44 magnum sixguns - WTF are you thinking, you are way light on handguns!
Get a 4 or 6 inch S&W 686 or a 4 inch RugerGP100, and a 6 inch S&W 629. Blackhawks are acceptable. |
|
Ohio Rapid Fire 9mm HK94 clone (when they're available)
It's what I'm doing with the $1200 in cash I've collected. |
|
|
Best way to spend $1200 is to NOT spend it. Put it to work. Money in motion makes money.
|
|
and what's the point of that? Why have any money at all if you're not going to spend it? |
|
|
Get both!
How about a new Gat (might I recommend a blinged out Hi Point or Lorcin, with gangsta sights... ) to go along with the obligatory hookers and blow? |
|
I already have an IRA, 401K, and lots of stocks......did I mention I am only 25. I save. This is play money. You have to spend money on things you'll enjoy or else you feel like you work for nothing.
My $0.02 on the saving money comment. |
|
If that is the case, then you can certainly blow $1200. Nice job, I envy you! If I had $1200, I would probably buy lowers with it. |
|
|
DSArms Web Page..................... ***Edited to add: Of course you can order it with the folding stock. |
|
+1 for the lowers. |
|
|
put it in the bank and forget about it or get a safe recomended - HERITAGE FORTRESS
|
|
That's a good point. A quality safe if you don't already have one.
|
|
Yep you won't be sorry. |
