I say 3rd one based on looks. Good looking gun. Nuber 4 is a red X

Depends on what you want to use it for. Are you a collector? Or more practical? That .30-30 is more than adequate to do whitetail and home/ranch defense.
The AK and AR are probably more fun at the range (and cheaper on ammo.) I am a no frills kind of guy, so I love the first two.

I can see it, but I'll post another one anyway.
I'm both.

You've got the cash, why not get all of them?

Two reasons:
1. I don't really have the cash.
2. The wife would murder me.

I am getting old and boring, but my tastes run differently than they used to.
I bought a Mosin Nagant at the last gun show, and I am all about trying to make smallish groups, with iron sights, at 100yds or more. I am going to take it to an Appleseed Project this fall I think.
I am actually looking to buy these maybe this winter...

Well if thats the case then I'd forgo all of them and get a Judge.
It's only a matter of time before the government restricts the sale of such a destructive machine.
FWIW, I hear the rebels in Libya have been using them to shoot down Gaddafi's helicopters, but take that with a grain of salt because that info came from unverified source.

If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay? I have been waiting for Cabelas to put theirs on sale for 99$. When they do they sell out fast though.....

I'm loking for a Saiga 12 right now. I thought I had a good deal on one but the owner is gettign sentimental.

Definitely invest in an aftermarket recoil pad if you get one.

I am considering getting my C&R license and purchasing some antique, not that the license is required.
I think I would prefer American rifles over Russian.

A decent 1903 or M1 will cost your between $750 and $1000. Its not because its 5 times the rifle.

I am aware, but the idea is appealing. When I first looked into it, I was fairly surprised at the pricing.

Yeah. I would love to have a 1903 and a Garand as well. But I just couldn't justify the price for myself at this time. Heck, I can get a Mosin, a Swiss K31, AND a German Mauser... all for the price of one decent Garand.
Or, as my buddy has done... purchase a handful of Mosins and start playing with them... adding a new stock, scoping one, painting one camo... etc. The Mosins are cheap, and very accurate rifles, that can hunt anything on this continent. From a pure collector standpoint, there are so many of them out there, they aren't that impressive. But as a toy... they are the best value you'll find. Ammo is dirt cheap too.

Wow, thanks to all those people who completely hijacked my thread.

Everyone should own the top one and the 2nd one.

That Red Jacket AR is pretty badass.
