Opinions of some firearms that I may purchase

G17>G22 same form factor, greater capacity, cheaper ammo

If you're using it for hunting, check out the SBEII or Vinci too. If youre using it for sporting clays, check out the Ethos and the Montefeltro too.

Civiltiger just bought a Montefeltro 20ga and I am wanting one of the 20ga semis pretty bad. I just csnt decide which one I want.

If you want a full size Glock, get a 17. No reason to get 40 anymore

Both of these really kick arse. The Cordoba is my Benelli rep's favorite gun. I'd be stoked with either, but get Cordoba. I want a 28ga Legacy or Ultra Light down the road

Armalite 15: always wanted one dont know if its worth the price though.

No. paying for name with most models. Daniel Defense M4V7LW if you want premium ($1400), and Sulzer MLR15 or Mk1 if you want bang for buck (900/1000)

Smith & Wesson M&P15-22 - A1 Style Comp Rimfire Semi-Auto Rifle: seen one for pretty cheap. just a nice looking plinker. kids could shoot this easily but I also have a marlin 22 that they shoot.

Yes. They're fun as shite and your kids will have a blast

Nothing wrong with .40 caliber, particularly, but it's time seems to have passed. Unless you just have a burning need to stock/shoot the caliber, I would consider the Glock 17 for this role. More capacity, (generally) cheaper to shoot, many more available loadings and the terminal performance of the better rounds (the highly recommended HST, as well as about a half dozen or so others) of 9mm and .40 are very comparable.

Depends on budget and intended use, but Benelli is (or should be) the gold standard for semi shotguns - although they do come with a premium in price.

Not sure what you're talking about here - a "No shite" Armalite Rifle 15 (from Armalite or Colt, presumably)? Because, the M4 style rifles (not sure if the increasingly more common 16" bbl, middy gas system actually qualifies as an M4gery or has it become another gun in it's own right ) - it's the greatest buyer's market in history for these things - it is almost possible to crack the $400 price point with these things (although I can't recommend that), but $500 to $600 will get you a very nice, albeit entry level, rifle from a major manufacturer like Ruger, Smith and Wesson or DPMS. Even if you're picky - if you have the tools already, $750 to $800 will get you the parts you need to assemble your own mid-grade rifle and $1200 will buy you one with very few compromises. Assuming you're go comparable on optics, you're still anywhere from $900 to $2000 - all in for something like this. (I'm not sneezing at 2 grand, but still, a Ruger AR556 or S&W M&P Sport II, plus, say an ACO, and a case of ammo, you're right at $1000.

Or the comparable Ruger tacticool .22 LR which would be particularly appropriate if you already have/are familiar with their excellent 10/22. But, a great niche to fill - a cheap way to get trigger time with the platform.

Love my 15-22. Super Accurate out to 100yds with good ammo
