Just Got Your LTC : What Were Your First Purchases

[IrishGun]

Took 3 weeks to get my LTC in Salem then a couple more weeks to buy my two-tone Ruger SR9c

 

[vickers]

Just got my LTC today. Went down to MFS and put 50 rounds through both the M&P 9mm and the SR9. I have to agree with many NESers that the trigger on the M&P sucks. The SR9 was nice and smooth and I shot it pretty well. Can't see getting an S&W M&P and then having to spend money to swap out the trigger. So I am leaning towards the Ruger. Though I wanted to try the SR9c and the M&P Shield but they didn't have any to lend. If I can find one to shoot I would probably go with the SR9c.

Try to find a used M&P with the trigger already installed. Gun is amazing.

I had a S&W 9mm compact all paid for two months before I had my LTC in hand, the very day I got my LTC within two hours I had my 9mm in my hand.

Mine was a Smith and Wesson MP9 fullsize...still love it to this day. Even though the shield gets carried each day.

no really the same but i moved to idaho and bought an ar lower/upper an ak47 and a springfield xdm 3.8 9mm

 

[MagGus1820]

My first gun was a Glock 23, then I found out how boring Glocks are, so I traded it for some EBT cards.

 

[fencer]

My first handgun purchases were a Sig 226 and a S&W 686. I still have both and will never sell them. And they are still 2 of my favorites

 

[Carver patriot]

My first pistol was a sig 226 research during my 4 month wait for my ltc lead me to this gun, I have no regrets.

 

[DJF3864]

Glock 23 was my first purchase, the day after I received my LTC.

Bought about 10 more guns in the 6 months that followed; the LTC was like a money sieve.

 

[bigred460]

S&W MP 40 FS was my first, now it doesn't see much action since I picked up my first 1911.

 

[Wicked1911]

My 1st was my Sig 1911 TTT, 2nd was my S&W 4" 686+ 7shot aka Wife'e gun, 3rd was my S&W M&P15 ORC, and 4th was another M&P15 ORC which I sold a month later because I decided to go a different route.

Still waiting on the state for my LTC. However I have purchased x2 S&W 9mm shields and they are resting in a LGS safe staying warm for the winter.

FA-10'd some of my rifles that were from out of state, then bought a BG380. Hate it, but still carry it. Bought 2 mosin's the same day.

Bought an LC9, then 10-22's for the kids for the Appleseed. Then an LCR in .38. Then a Rem 870.

The LTC has been a 5-figure money pit between gunz, ammo, etc.

Outgrown my second safe.

First was a S&W SD9VE to hold me over till my shield came in

 

[GreyEyes]

I went out looking for an M&P, but found what looked to be a barely used CZ-75B for ~500. I didn't find out until much later how lucky I was to get that gun for that price, as at the time I had very little knowledge about the approved rosters, AG regs, etc etc. Funny thing is, I went to the store on a whim when a friend mentioned it to me that morning. It was definitely meant to be.

My first purchase were some stripped lowers. Had plans to build one and keep the others for a rainy day, but I enjoyed the build too much, so that didnt work out the way I planned.

First pistol was a Ruger sr9c that I bought ftf from another member. Kinda felt like a drug deal, lol.

 

[sixtiesstill]

Had to wait three days after I received my license last month before I could get to the LGS while it was still open, but I picked up a Ruger SR49C all black and a bunch of ammo, I still need more ammo..!

 

[Al-Jim19]

Received ltc in January...waited until June to buy a gun - a mosin. A month later, I got my college graduation present from my parents, a shield 9mm. A short while later I got a stripped lower and am currently putting that together. Hopefully I'll get the upper come Christmas!!!

 

[CobaltBlueSteel]

Sig P226.

 

[Glockfan71]

My first purchase was an M&P .45c.

Preban G19 and too many to list after

 

[daveshrews]

Received mine from Woburn back in 2004. Literally walked next door to Four Seasons and picked up the Glock 23 2nd gen I had already picked out. Great gun, but I sold it and bought a G19 about 6 years later just due to ammo prices.

About two weeks later, I went back in and bought a Sig P220. And after that, it's all a blur...
