Though rare, I think I saw one on here for sale a while back. Actually I think I saw it a few times.

Depends upon what you already have. Small carry gun? Larger, winter carry gun? HD handgun? Range/plinking gun? Revolvers and semis?

 

[gerrycaruso]

That's like saying "I want a new car, what should I get?" You'll have to be a bit more specific if you'd like a helpful response.

 

[citoriguy]

What do you have, and what do you have a hankering for?

 

[SKumar]

go for whatever you think maura will go after next. Get yourself a 308 semi auto ASAP

 

[Asaltweapon]

So many guns. So little time. Not enough money.

 

[Mr.E]

My next will likely be a Henry lever action....and cowboy boots

Personally I'm bored with what you can buy in gun stores new. I'm more interested in buying something interesting even if it's used. There's a couple of interesting things for sale in the NES classifieds right now that I"m seriously considering.

 

[appraiser]

everyone should own a J frame revolver, a K Frame revolver, a Ruger MkIII or similar 22 plinking gun, a mid range quality 1911, and a Remington 870 or Mossberg 500 shotgun.

Also some sort of a 9mm semi automatic full sized and a compact.

And a rifle of your choice

Start with the classics and build from there

 

[The Herd]

Small Sig, LCR....

OR

Ruger Precision Rifle....

Lol, HERE???

 

[citoriguy]

There are two .50cal rifles in the classifieds that I’d buy if I had the discretionary funds to do so.

I got a old itch recently. Came across a small batch of fun money and some very good deals on some old guns.
Low serial Chief Special and a 75 year old Arisaka type 99.
I dont know why but "new" guns just dont make me itch

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Mark 23

 

[DTOM537]

Archon type B

 

[rosco61]

Get a Springfield 03A3. What a slick nostalgic rifle, it’s a pleasure just to cycle that bolt and send that round down range.

 

[PL-52]

I found my Marlin PCC's in 9mm and .45acp my next itch might just have to be a Pre-ban AR-15 Carbine in 9mm

 

[boilermaker]

Sig 365 is the gun du jour it seems

Only because the Glock 48 and 43X are made of unobtanium in MA, at least at reasonable money.

Something in .40

*ducks*

I’m in the same boat, have $950 in gift cards at the local gun range/shop and not sure what my next purchase will be. I’m all set for revolvers. All set for semi handguns, might go for another P365 as a backup but they will only be able to get the MA version w the safety and I don’t want that.

So thinking shotgun because I don’t have any. Don’t really have much use for one but probably useful to have a hunting combo if Armageddon comes, will probably not ever come out of the safe. They’re also not expensive so not sure if I want to blow gift cards on that. Thinking of a Tavor bull pup in 5.56, just to have one. Or a mini14, again just to have one. Or a mini30... I also don’t have a longer range rifle, maybe a .308 of some variety - just to have one.

Another consideration is that safe space is at a premium, I suppose I could keep something locked and stored other than in the safe. Looking to move in next year or two and when I do I’ll invest in lots of Safe capacity.

If it was my money I’d be all set but since I have these gift cards I need to do something with them, and should have another $1,000 in gift cards by Thanksgiving. Gift cards are OPM.

If for some reason you don't have one already, every collection needs to have a Borchardt.

.40 Short & Weak is falling out of favor and fast.... but there are tons of them out there that could be had for reasonable money.

One of the good things about a .40 is you can drop a .357Sig barrel into many Fortays and you get a fun round to shoot.

Same with a .357 revolver... you can shoot .38Spl wad cutter reloads all day long for short money, or you can have fun with a hotter load

Yes, thinking lever action too. Agonizing over caliber .357, .44mag - I have revolverators in both calibers. Or do I get a rifle caliber?

I've got one of each, go with 357mag it is MUCH more pleasant to shoot.
