I just performed an inventory, and discovered that I have 39 pistols, with a broomhandle Mauser I will be buying in a couple weeks, that will be 40.
I have 25 revolvers, and am gonna have to get 15 more (want to have 40 of each,) though I'm pretty straight on my revovler inclinations––19 of them are S&Ws, and I see no reason not to continue. But here is the rub: I only have 19 rifles, and 8 shotguns. So I need suggestions on 21 rifles and 32 shotguns. Any thoughts? |

What rifles do you have now? Shotguns? Without knowing that answer I'll say: FN FAL AR10 Bullpup (MSAR, Steyr, TPD) Benelli M4 Remington 870 Saiga 12 Got the FAL and a pair of 870s. But now an AR10, a Benelli, a Saiga 12, and a Steyr are on the list. Forgot about the AR10 and Saiga. (Seekin' ideas that I ain't thought up––-thanks, as those were eluding my brain.) |

21 Moisan Nagants if you want to do it on the cheap. Nah––-but I don't have one, so one of them might be a good idea. Mosins are neat, you need at least one M44 and 91/30. I have a laminated stock version of each. Speaking of classics: K31 98K Garand M1 carbine Enfield(s) |

Not to be too obtuse, given lateness of hour and alcohol....but the K31 is Swiss, right? |

Why 40? Arbitrary number based on 39 pistols with one more coming in a bit (though a few extra may creep in there anyway)––-but I figure if I focus on rifles and shotguns, and getting at least rifles to 40, I'll be more balanced in the collection. (Given that S&W revolvers will always go up when I encounter nice P&R, or at least P, in the case of .38s, and that I only have one sporting shotgun––plus one that is the missus', though she lets me use it––Winchester 1400 in 20 gauge....wonderful gun...............) Though I should add that a couple of pistols are on the way once a certain arfcommer gets my money order as well––-though only one is really for me, with the other being a present for said missus. |
