You get 1k to buy a firearm. What would be going home with you?

[Droid noob]

If you had a grand for a firearm, what would you walk away with? Rifle, pistol, revolver?

 

[RiverPerson]

Rifle.

Probably a decent AR15.

 

[Archaic Weapon]

A new .45. S&w, Ruger Blackhawk, or a 1886 Winchester clone.

 

[M2 Carbine]

Last week I bought this Kel Tec KSG for an even $1,000 (plus tax).
Ammo, Red Dot and Streamlight TLR-2 laser/light extra.

 

[Walkalong]

I have the hots for a Duty One from STI.

Although I would prefer it without the rail.

 

[LockedBreech]

Sig Sauer P229 Elite Stainless .40 S&W

 

[1KPerDay]

Whatever Colt SAA I could find for the price.

 

[Midwest]

AR-15

That's nice

AK-74

I've never spent that much on just a single firearm. I'd have to add a scope or extra mags or such to reach what I've paid for one.

Can I spend my grand on two or three?

 

[mrvco]

The Glock 17 / Winchester 870 gift box

 

[MagnumDweeb]

Ruger 1911 with Crimson Trace laser sight.

 

[19-3Ben]

A used Ruger Speed Six, and then spend the other ~$550-600 on dehorn, action tuning, chamber chamfer, custom fitting for a night sight, and finally hardchrome.

 

[Robert]

Nothing I want right now is that cheap... Sheesh I need a cheaper hobby.

 

[Chevelle SS]

A real German Mauser 98k or
A decent used sxs 20ga with double triggers or
A nickel RIA 1911 plus ammo

 

[Texan Scott]

Varies daily/ weekly. ... today, prob a stainless '58 Remington and 2 conversion cylinders.

 

[huntsman]

Beretta 87 + extra 10 round mags

 

[muggia59]

A 357 winchester lever action.

 

[CharlieDeltaJuliet]

M2Carbine, I like that Kel-Tec.

If I were going to buy another gun on a $1000 budget, I would bring a Hk USP.45 home. I have been wanting a USP for a while. I have Sigs and other pistols but the Hk is on the top of my short list.

 

[lpsharp88]

Ruger 10/22, and spend the rest on .22

 

[mac66]

Holy cow, I would never spend that much on a gun. I have all the guns I need, and most of what I want. Ok, maybe I would pick up a CMP Garand but I can't think of anything else.

 

[clutch]

A decent shot gun to bust clays.

 

[91/30]

Probably a Golani, or a Nagant Sniper rifle, but if it was 2.5 times that much a Tavor.

 

[BemidjiDweller]

I'd pick up another Springfield "LOADED" 1911. I bought one to give a buddy as a wedding present and have been looking for another for myself.
