Some Of The Best Guns Bought in 2020

[RobertJ.]

I only bought two in 2020, but they were both guns that I've always wanted. I already have a SRH in .44, but I always wanted the original. And the Model 1100 has been a grail gun for a long time. And they shoot as good as they look!

Neither of these were even on my radar until the opportunity was there. Both in excellent condition.

H&K P7M8 and a German mfg Sig P210.

I've picked up several in 2020, but this is probably my favorite.
Daniel Defense 300BO Pistol with a 7" barrel.

Poor really sucks, been there, done that!
Won't do that again.
Having money is a lot more fun and easy.

My 2020 acquisitions that I have photos of.

The CZ 75 automatic was under $ 2000. I live in Switzerland.

Yes but with some restrictions, I need to ask a shooting permit from the bureau of arms (and find a range that will allow it).

So I bought several in 2020 during a mandated government paid 2 month vacation due to CV19.

Thank God firearms are considered "essential " and nothing else much was open. Perfect time to hunt for Colts.

But the "best ", for me anyway, was this delightful Colt Model M Pocket Hammerless from 1928 in .380. I came upon it somewhat accidentally, and paid the princely sum of $400 plus tax.

And the second "best " for me was locating a 2004 Colt 1911a1 1943/WW2 reproduction in 95% condition. Not many of these put out from Hartford, and they're true Custom Shop guns, from a time when they were turning out great 1911s.

There were a couple of others, but these 2 were "best " and items I'd sought for awhile.

All of my best handguns except one, were bought in 2020. Retirement, and the social distancing mandated by COVID-19 put a lot of time on my hands; I managed to visit a few gun shops and gun shows at the right times, and dipped into some retirement money. I've posted pics of all of them here and there, but I've bought a M28-2, a M57 no dash, a M29-2, a M66-1 and a M48-4 from Dec 2019 to Jan 2021, as well as a SxS CZ shotgun.

 

[crsides]

I THINK my best 2020 guns were all Colts.

NIB 2nd gen 45 LC.

Colt Det Spl inscribed Col. PD No.1004 shipped 1934

and an all original etched panel SAA shipped in 1881 with holster - Great bore!
.

And there then was a mint 1956 sav 99F in 243.


There was one Smith and Wesson that snuck in the back door.

 

[RGNewell]

Major General Julian Hatcher's Highway Patrolman Shipped May 10, 1954.

1916 Navy Artillery Luger

My birth month K22

One of my grail guns. Model 50

 

[LVSteve]

My first M1 Garand.

Curious little rack plaque.

A Strike One, because Bergmann system.

 

[Golddollar]

I received my 1911A1 .45 from the CMP. I also bought a S&W M&P Shield 2.0 EZ9. It was involved in the recall so I haven't had a chance to take it out and fire it.

I sold a lot more than I bought in 2020. That said, I made a few nice additions that will be enjoyed.

CMMG Banshee 9mm that takes Glock mags - This is my wife's home defense firearm. I finally found something she LOVES to shoot. It came with a bunch of mags, the Vortex red dot, light and 1000 rounds. One of my best purchases ever from a practical standpoint. It has been reliable and a bunch of fun.

S&W 331 TI - I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this last summer at the LGS. I simply told my guy to set that one back while I go to the bank. It is my go to for lightweight carry. Functions flawlessly with a nice, smooth trigger.

Weatherby Deluxe in 270 Winchester - Somebody wanted my X-bolt stalker more than me after I tagged out for deer season...so I sold it. I went to the LGS with money burning a hole in my pocket. The Weatherby caught my eye and was marked down, and I've been wanting a 270 for awhile, so she came home with me. I already had a scope looking for a new home. The universe aligned on this one. Sweet trigger out of the box!

 

[Florey55]

NIce gun, but nicer knife. What is it?

 

[BloodyThumb]

A Swiss M/49 or M/1949 or P49, that I have wanted for literally 40 years, and a DDM4 PDW with a Hybrid 46. SHHHHHH!
