Do I have enough? Sure.

Do I want more? Absolutely.

So I will buy more.

Been there for a long time. Several of mine will likely never fire another shot.

Just picked up a Henry .22 LR pump
for my Grandson to shoot.

Copy of the old shooting gallery rifles.

He burns up ammo too quick with the 10/22

LOL

I held one of those a couple weekends ago and loved everything but the forearm stock. It seemed incredibly cheap and very unHenry like

Nah, but I'll just hit another phase and go after things in that line.

Currently, I've been picking up antique military smokeless rifles, the guns from the 1890's. Those can ship straight to your door in free states. I've got a couple Argentine Mausers already, and recently picked up an antique Carcano, some Mannlichers and some Schmidt-Rubins. I have a Mosin Nagant, but I'd like to get an antique in that line.

I've gone through phases where I got the Warsaw Pact/Commie pistols, the 80's/90's metal-frame 9's, and ARs.

My mind always wants more guns, my checking account, not so much.

I haven't purchased a firearm in just over 12 months. I have been focused on throwing money at other hobbies the last year.

I have spent a fricking ton of money building a woodworking only shop with professional power machines and dust collection. And getting ready to drop a few thousand on upgrading a bandsaw for resawing.

I need to lie low on hobby purchases before my wife starts asking too many questions.

ETA--my last firearm related purchases last year was level IV body armor plates and plate carrier and a Ruger 10/22.

I picked up one of those used last February and it's a tack driver. Really fun to shoot. Reminds me of the old Browning or Winchester my brother and I used to shoot when we'd visit my uncle. He'd give us two boxes of 550 rds and a bag of cans and say have at it.

Yep, a fun plinker.

Henry lifetime warranty.

Other choices that I am aware of:

Rossi and they had problems with cracked receivers.

Winchester and Remington haven’t made one in years.

Any other options other than used?????
