unfortunatly i cant afford a new gun since im getting laid off friday.
however ill buy a box of cheap .223s or a brick of .22lrs.
i know its not much but ammo sales should help
 
well, i just bought a case of .22lr. wally world had some for 11.47 per 550, so i said screw it and bought the 10 brick case... and some .40 and .45
 
yeah, all i want is to be able to hit a target, paper sized, or comparable(moving target) at 100-200 yards. i dont care about dime sized holes, i will never shoot that. even if i could, as long as i take the intended target down on the first shot, or am able to follow up quickly, thats all that matters.
 
Seeing as how we have a 3-day weekend (starting 4 July), and I won't count on any of my local purveyors of fine firearms to be open on a holiday, I will do my darndest at the gun show this coming weekend. See if I can knock a couple of things off the "acquisition list".
 
****, I just bought a gun.

If I'd waited it would be gone. It was a really good deal (stainless Super Blackhawk for $284)

If someone sends me some more cash, I promise I'll buy another gun with the money, though.:D
 
I'll take part in, this I need to buy a new gun now in honor of the Heller victory.

I can't afford much right now but I'll find something cheap and fun to add to my collection. There should definitely be a pic thread dedicated to all the guns THR members buy during the buy a gun week!
 
Gotta say this, I hate to be a killjoy,

Guys it great you bought guns kudos but this thread is specifically for the advocation of purchasing firearms (not ammo or shooting) during the week of June 29 to July 5 2008, anything else, feel free to start a different thread, try not to post in this one.
 
i helped out and bought a 4473'ed ruger 10/22. its "preban" by the serial number. in the 230's.
 
I also helped out, purchased a new glock 30, 4473'ed of course.

To do my part, I bought my first complete EBR (complete in that I didn't build it myself from parts).

My safe welcomed a new S&W M&P15.
 
I just bought one last month. It was the middle of the week and the background check was delayed 30minutes or so. Several other customers in there at the time were delayed also.

I can only imagine the delays this week if the national buyagunweek word really gets spread around.

Ill see what I can do. I was already planning to get some more ammo if the stores arent closed. So a new gun may just follow me home also.
 
Would love to but I'm, like, in Japan this week.

I'll buy something next week, when I get home. Promise.

:p
 
The intent is to boost the number of back ground checks during the week as a way to send a message.

Send a message to who? What message?

Is anybody really watching how many firearms are bought?
 
I will if NJ ever gets around to approving my FID card!!! :fire:

Oh well, they should be doing a background check on me anyway as they do for the FID card and the pistol purchase permit I'm getting.

So if I can, I'm in.
