How to celebrate

[GunnyMack]

So I'm on the fence as to how to celebrate our WIN.
Of course this means I have to buy a gun, but what...
Was thinking about another Henry. Maybe a 357.
Or a Ruger Precision Rifle in 6.5 Creedmore
Or a 9mm AR carbine from PSA...
I just can't decide so let's have another vote!

The Ruger precision rifle is selling as fast as they can build them. I would love to own one.

[Blaine]

I been thinking about an Officer-sized 1911 of some flavor....Perhaps, a RIA in 9mm.....

Depends on how old you are......if your semi old (like me) or old, buy what suits your fancy. Young guys to middle aged need to buy quality collector guns for future investment so when you do get semi old or old you can buy whatever you want.

The last couple of years I've been buying up quality AR's and other nice WW2 stuff.----6

Come January there are instituting background checks here for ammo and components. I'm not buying any now or then as it feeds the coffers of the idiots that run this state.

In preparation for this idiocy, I am moving most of my firearms and equipment out of state. I will maintain enough here for emergencies and pick up what I need on my way anywhere from my out of state location. I won't use any of my emergency stash unless it is an emergency so I won't need to buy anything here in the near or long term future.

I like most of what California represents. It's got a great climate, and the ocean is wonderful. But, the wife and I are planning on leaving when we retire in a few years.

Frankly there are just to many fools who will vote for things they don't understand, and for people they won't vet.

Well, I'm closer to 50 then 40, so I still an not sure what I am... I think like a kid but feel like I'm old( some days)
I really like the Ruger, but do I NEED it? Not really. I do like the 6.5 Creedmore though.
Not a big fan of 9mm, but an AR carbine could be a bunch of fun.
Another Henry could be fun but again do I really need it, nope...
Maybe I should keep thinking & looking.

Ha! I was thinking the same way I ended up putting on layaway a Ruger M77 MKII in 7.62X39 that I was eyeing on for some time. Hopefully at the end of the month I can finish paying it off. As for the Ruger Precision I finally picked mine up a few weeks ago but haven't had a chance to try it out, just too busy . It's the Gen2 version in 6.5 Creedmore. I had a chance to shoot the 243 Win. and 308 Win. version that my friend picked up and all I have to say is WOW!!! Too bad they stop making the 243 Win. just didn't sell well but I've been hearing Ruger has a long action prototype built for testing but don't know what caliber.

I laughed when my friend told me but he bought that hi point 9mm carbine but for $250 bucks, it didn't suck.
I am a big fan of 9mm so I've procrastinating on a Sig MPX but I keep coming back to why as well...

[GunnyMack]

Hey! I just remembered a model 70 (post64) 308 collecting dust... Maybe time for a rebarrel, new stock and glass instead of buying new!

[J Miller]

I've been wanting a new Ruger Blackhawk convertible .45, but thanks to my health and obummer no way can I afford it. Hell, we can't even put tires on the Pathfinder and it needs them.

Funny how these things come up. Got a call about 1 to take a ride up to see the preview for an auction. Drove up the 15 miles and it looks like a Winchester Mod. 57, a dewat 1928 Thompsom, Remington 141 pump in 35 and a Colt Lightning rifle in .22 will most likely follow me home on Sat. Sure is fun to be retired.----6

Byron,
Where you be hiden'? Hey! Are they rioting up in your neck of the woods? (I know the answer.... plenty of ground to hide them in.)
You keep workin', you hear? My check came in yesterday. Thank you!----6

Your welcome Just the pipeline the "Native Americans" have issues with Not on their "Land" but we've had Jesse Jackson and what's her name from Hunger Games blowin smoke.

I just pulled the trigger on a new deer rifle. Tikka T3 hunter in 6.5-55. I built a Turk Mauser into a 6.5-55 about five years back for my grandson. He's killed several deer at 270 plus yards and last week a 37" Bull Moose here in north Idaho. The load for Bullwinkle was a 140 gr Nosler Partition. We had moose burger tonight. This purchase was to celebrate the relief over the election!
