Anything sitting on the rack at a nearby gun store that's gonna wind up in your safe sooner or later? I mean specifically, not like "there's a Mini-14 over at the Walmart, I gotta git me one of those sometime".
For me there's a short barreled (3.5"?) Kimber TLE that I've been sorta makin' eyes at... |
|
Yeah, a 16" bbl Rosario (Portuguese?? Argentinian??) 50.63 FN FAL clone. F' in sweet, but nearly $3,000.
|
|
used Remington 700 in 308. The only thing stopping me is wondering how much I have to add on top to get a really good tactical-type rifle (mild accurizing, scope, detachable magazine, and stock,)
|
|
I've fallen in love with this Arsenal SAM-5 but its 750 dollars and the old lady would work me over with a steak knife if I brought it home.
|
|
My dealer has a USP Tactical with a Gemtech suppressor that's giving me that "come hither" look. I've resisted so far, saving for another MG......
|
|
That S&W (942?) 9mm target gun! Damn, I want that to go with my Model 52!
|
|
Remington Light Varminter, in 223. Luscious. Only balk comes when I do not know how to rectify the butt pad problem. It has a 1" sponge on the end of a otherwise awsome product, and it is about .5" short at that. If I knew, for sure, how to make that right without trash canning the decient stock allready pillarbedded to the action, it would be 'walkin with me'.

Steyr .308 with a Mannlicher Half Stock for only $800. But got too many black rifle items on the fire right now.

Yugo SKS, one they have stored in a box in the back. The stock is a freak of nature to die for.
Also a 1946 M44, once again amzaing condition, 100% blueing, perfect unmarked stock, $79.99. |
|
Even though I don't hunt & have no logical reason for wanting it my dealer always has a 45/70 Marlin Guide Gun in Stainless that I know will eventually find its way into my safe.
I just love the looks of that rifle. |
|
I've been working on a few guns, I've got an AK online with a firend I'm going to buy. I'm assembling a new AR based on a CavArms MKII and I'm going to get a CZ from academy.
But the thing I am really looking forward to, that occupies my mind, is a Springfield Armory M6 that they have at my favorite dealer. Is that wierd or what? Gotta get one. |
|
Anything $100 and under. I have a habit of buying anything cheap.
|
|
I know what you mean. |

A local shop had a pre-ban Colt 9mm AR-15 carbine hanging on the wall before the sunset. They wanted $1700.00 for it.
Right after the sunset, I picked up a new, L.E. Colt 9mm carbine for $894.00. It's great and I'm glad I waited. Now I stay away from gun shops. I might fall in love with something else. Colt_SBR |

Before the AWB sunset I would have disagreed with you. When they jacked the price of everything in the store the day after the sunset they also lost my support. |
|
|
I went gun/mag shopping after the ban, then learned my lesson again. |

|
+1 I certianly agree with you 100%. |

I often touch a particular Garand when during my weekly visit to the FFL. I'll never buy it though....at least I don't think I will. I mean I'm pretty sure I won't. Well, not anytime soon anyway. Perhaps sometime in the next few months I guess. Unless I just say screw it and go buy it next week. Maybe if I were to swing by this afternoon. Not a chance minus that 1.5 hour window I have this morning. Might as well, I mean I've got an old stripper clip sitting in the spare parts bin with no garand to be used with. Hmm....
|
|
Yugo SKS....
Yep, thats how bad I'm doing financially. I get a hard on for one of the cheapest things available... Bah, I'll blame my poverty on Hokie. - BG |
|
sorry bro....it wasn't my intention!!! get yourself an upper already!!! |
|
|
A stainless Rem Model 7 in 308. For some reason I want this little rifle badly. May have to get it next week.
|
|
Smith Model 10. Five inch barrel, nickel finish. Stamped Detroit Police on the back strap. Oh wait I bought that, didn't I. It just spoke to me.
Hmm, Fox BSE 12 ga, 26 " barrels, $400. Nice old Colt Official Police in six inch for $230. SIG 225 for $450 or so. The list goes on and on. |
|
HK Mark 23.
Already got one, but wouldn't mind having one with the tan frame, just to look at :-) |
|
There a pretty blued Browning Hi Power with rosewood grips, adjustable sights, and an ambi-safety over at the local fun shop for $450 that has been calling my name for the last 3 weeks. Looks to be mint.
|
|
Workin on it. I prefer to do it right the first time, and I'm going to get the best money can buy. Its looking like its going to run me $1100, excluding the lower. Thus, my dilemma. - BG |

My local dealer has a CZ 452 in 17 HM2 that I like to add to my collection.
|
|
Walther P-99 AS Compact if and when it lands in my local fun shop!
|
|
A Colt CAR6724, seen one today on my dealers rack and damned near walked out with it
Its always nice to have another praire dog gun, I might just go back and get it |
|
My Dad bought a Winchester 1886 45/70 Carbine with the full tube and saddle ring from the local gun shop last weekend. I asked what in the world are you going to do with that? He said "I am going to shoot it, and then I am going to hunt a buffalo with it." We went to another gun shop yesturday and I was tempted by the two tranferable M-16s they had for 14,000 each. |

Weatherby Vangaurd .270 for $250 at wally world.
bushy M4 for $800 and M1A Scout for $1200 at local shop. |
|
You mean like that used and not so clean looking IMI Javelina 10mm Longslide?
$500 A week later - $450 I stayed away until someone else bought it. I would have put a crimp in other plans. So a week later I payed $300 for a Weatherby Vanguard w/synthetic stock at Walmart. So much for will power and other plans. But I saved $150. |
|
Can't believe I'm the first with this one...
Bachman's in Dallas has a Springfield M1A Standard with the Black fiberglass stock. The price is good... But my fiscal restraint Kung-Fu is WEAK!!! This rifle may indeed, end up going with me to the Hun Farm next month. ETA: But then, I would have to buy a scope mount, decent piece of glass, not to mention all that decent ammo I would need to pick up, too. |
|
So I'm not the only one that hears all the little voices in the Fun Shop??? |
