What is the last gun that you bought?

Glock 19 w/Austrian proof marks. Born in 1989 and sat in the box unfired for 29 years until I wiped off the heavy coating of grease and put 100 flawless rounds through it. I swapped out sights and a couple internals (NY1 trigger and 3.5 connector) and it’s now in the Glock rotation.

July 21st, I bought a Springfield XDE 9mm. semiauto. I've been interested in that new Springfield for some time, so I stopped by Academy and looked around, not really intending to actually buy anything.
But there it was. Months ago I'd asked about it and they didn't have any. But that day, they had two, so I bought the NIB one that wasn't the display model.
Nice gun. Might become one of my favorites!
 
Time for my latest update to this thread..... July 20th I broke down and bought a new Ruger PC Carbine. Here it is July 30th and that thing is still unfired !.... That's highly unusual for me. Just spent some time familiarizing myself with it in terms of field stripping, cleaning, assembly, and general usage. Lots of good videos about that stuff on line. Been busy with my step grand-daughters archery league, clearing brush, and other chores. One of these days I'll get over to my buddies land and we're gonna see how it shoots. Bought it because I've heard lots of good things about them and the gunsmith / shop owner that sold it to me said that they're built "like a tank", and I've known him over 25 years and trust his word.... One of these days I might even get around to shooting it. Got plenty of 9x19 here and I can also reload for it. Overall; I think I'm gonna like it. IMG_2041.JPG IMG_2048.JPG IMG_2050.JPG

After shooting and coveting the Glock 23, I finally broke down and bought a Gen4 grey frame. Happy (early) birthday to me!
 
Okay, this is embarrassing to admit; but, I just bought a Hi-Point 9mm carbine.

I had a reason though, I have the High Tower Armory Bullpup stock for it on the way.

Just looking at it, in its original form, I am taken back by the sheer ugliness of this thing. . . but I will fix that soon.
