Looking to add to the collection for under $1000. This $1,000 budget will be for the gun only, optics (if desired) will be extra after the initial purchase.

What do yall recommend?

TIA

Mini-14. Personal preference for the carbine.

Just to have? What are you going to do with it?

S&W .460 Xframe would be cool.

You need a wheel gun.

Ruger Single six
Ruger GP100

Either of those.

Up your budget by a couple more hundred and get yourself and FN 5.7

Maybe a S&W 686 in 357 mag or build a really nice target 22 bolt gun

I was going to say the cz scorpion as well.

Up until 41f I would have said a suppressor for one of your current guns, but now the wait will be forever.

Yup. Unfortunately I didn't get my 9mm can for the CZ in time.

Gonna be a long wait for that one

Get a 22TCM in a 1911 for $600 and enjoy the same ballistics plus the ability to convert to 9mm

Somebody needs to clue me in on this, I've seen to many references to boating accidents on gun threads lately...I must have missed a good one somewhere

Get a Super Blackhawk .44 Mag. Not very practical for much of anything but I see you don't have a revolver and these are pretty fun.



Either this or a GP100 in stainless.

At the last OBGT, we all brought our weapons to show one another. Decided bapple's yacht would be the location of choice. Some guy that carries in his waistband without a holster had a negligent discharge, thereby sinking the boat. We all lost our entire collections, much to the dismay of the government that was coming to get them.

If OP wants cool, he should get a .454 casull Ruger Alaskan.

Nothing says cool like having enough muzzle blast to blow the tin off the roof at the range.
