What is the last gun that you bought?
- Thread starter full metal
- Start date
I can resist anything but temptation…which came in the form of a $300 LEO trade in M&P 45. Typical holster wear, but nothing too extreme. With a couple of 24-rd S&W magazines and a simple BladeTech holster, it will make a great woods gun!

Purchased this just before firearms deer season in Minnesota.
No, I did not buy it for hunting.
One can use their imagination for its use. This puppy is heavy!
A Springfield Armory Saint Edge ATC in 223 Wylde.
It will be a while before I shoot it as optics will have to be purchased and installed.
and dies, components etc.
A whole new world for me!
Never bought a rifle, (I like handguns) let alone a "feared "black gun"
Should be fun, right?
OH!
I have to take that back.
Bought a rifle of my deceased Uncle from my Aunt last Summer...
I may post that someday if I have not already.
Edit to add...
This is not my last gun.
Another is on its way tomorrow.
Oh boy...
Try to explain that to Mrs. Johnson!

At $375 + tax (w/free shipping), I couldn’t resist pulling the trigger on one of those Other Austrian Nines, an OD green Steyr M9-A2 MF

Just bought a new VP40B for $379.99, and it comes with a $200 rebate for the HK webstore.
I been looking for a beater 40 S&W to burn up some ammo. This was a steal.

I run an RCM 357 Sig on a VP40 & a Steyr L40-A1 & they’re excellent barrels.

I finally got the Ruger LCR 357 magnum I’ve been wanting. Not sure why, just like having a snubnose and wanted to upgrade from my Taurus snubnose.

A Colt Delta Elite found its home today!
The Hammer of Thor!
It is special because my son in Alaska must pay attention to his old man.
He new I wanted a 10mm and ordered this for his store.
The big mistake was sending me a picture.
I told him to let me "sleep on it."
The next day i said "Sold!"
Here is a picture of it........................
My last gun?
I don't know, maybe...

Last gun I bought is a Rolling Block rifle with Carlos Gove underlever conversion, and a Farrow false muzzle barrel. Chambered in .32-40 cartridge.
Pretty wood!

Remington 1100 in .410.
The local chief of police dropped by to offer me access to the police firing range.
He mentioned that a neighbor had a shotgun that she wanted out of the house.
I offered $200, which was accepted.
A deputy delivered it to me in a case, right here in the library.
That felt weird... .

FN 1922 chambered for 7.65 Browning (.32 ACP). Springs all seem pretty stiff, like maybe the previous owner replaced some of them. Did the firing pin test and it nicely launched a 1/4x9" dowel. Just ran some snap caps through it and they fly out pretty forcefully just hand racking it, so the ejector seems to be in great shape. Can hardly wait to shoot it.

As a follow up, I learned that not only do these pistols not lock back after the last round, but also the slide lock notch does not hold because it is only for use in field stripping, apparently after the slide spring is removed. I learned this from a very informative site at this post.
Aim Surplus Police Trade In P-320.
$373.10 out the door
Couldn't resist. Haven't bought a pistol in a long time.

Bought a Ruger American Predator in .308, at a real good price, on line. I then outfitted it with anextra scope I have, and a sling. All in all I'm pleased with this rifle, and the price. Its light, and has a 16 in BBL. great for thick woods hunting.
