How often do you buy a new gun?

Hadn’t seen the Hellion before. Cool looking piece. I like the sights. Springfield has an M1A Scout Squad I like. It’s reminiscent of the M1 .30 cal. carbine I’ve always had a soft spot for.

I bought my first ar from academy. Now I build them. My wife is happier when I spread out the purchases a little. I’ve never had a 10/22, but my dad loves his. Both good options!

Can’t pass up a good sale! If anything, she should be happy that you saved money! :rofl:

The last gun I bought was a Belgian A5. That was around the same time I bought my model 11. I don’t even remember how long ago that was… maybe late last year. Possibly longer

Hey Bill get a little of both, buy a SW 22 AR. I put a good trigger in mine and it’s a blast to shoot. I like it better than my 10/22. Just a thought. Good luck!:+1:t2:

Funny when I NEED a new gun it’s stupid but when R see’s one she likes it’s important. So “I” don’t buy a lot but R does every once in a while.

Hey Bill I’m going to jump in again re: revolvers. If I was looking for a revolver again I’d look for an older SW without the side lock. Over the last 2 years I purchased a newer SW 617 22 cal. Under the side plate, it was filled with machining debris. I new it was coming apart anyway so it wasn’t a big deal. The next was a SW Mdl 19 carry comp. Went back to SW because it locked up using full house 357. They sent it back supposedly repaired. Nope, not fixed. I figured out the problem and it’s now fixed, just not by SW. I never had that problem with the old stuff.

To get back on the blog topic if something catches my eye and I want it, I’ll generally get rid of something and replace it with a trade or partial trade. Bartering can work out good at times. Good luck on your purchase.

That’s the problem I have 2 large safes. Not sure my floor will take much more weight.

Just turn your living room into that… Put that artistic vision to work! You could put the TV above the workbench, and a couple lazy boys in there somewhere… let’s not get hung up on the details, brother :rofl:
