The Governator (Arnold) has just signed into law a requireing a microstamping device on all new autoloaders.
I will be making a few purchases soon...Im wanting a pair of firearms that will last me a lifetime if needed, and be capable of easy repair. Im averaging<500 rds per year/per gun. I would prefer to not have a gun that eventually wears out in a non-repairable or expensive area like the reciever.
As of now I have a Makarov, and a Ruger 22/45.
Im thinking of purchasing a 1911, since I like the caliber and the gun. With moderate use and cleaning will this gun last me 50 years?
Im also wanting a "plinking" gun, probably a polymer framed gun. Im eyeballing the glock and XD series, in 9mm since that will help a bit with ammo costs. Will these last me 50 years?
What would you purchase and why?
