What's your most recent firearm purchase, and why did you buy it?

[OLDSTER]

Why, who cares!

Really nice. I love the old Gold Cups

Well, I bought two recently. I bought a 4596 and a 4586. As to the why I am a hopeless 3rd gen steel addict. One day I hope to have all versions of the steel 3rd gens in 45 and 10mm. But the reality is I love them in all flavors and calibers. I recently developed an odd yearning for a 40 too. I seriously need help lol.

My most recent purchase was a H&R model 900 9 shot .22LR revolver. It desperately needed a new home and I felt obligated to give it one.

Purchased a 66-1 snub last weekend. I bought it not because i need it (have a 66-2 snub), or because of the below market price, I bought it because of it being marked S.C.S.O. (S____ County Sheriff's Office) below the cylinder.
Of course there are many Counties with names that begin with the letter "S", but according to the dealer (who bought an entire collection from a local estate) this 66 was used by the local Sheriff's Office. It was most likely a Detective's carry piece.
I have bought numerous firearms from the dealer and he's as honest as they come. I might have it lettered to be sure, but no matter where it was shipped to, it's a good deal for the gun alone.

Little Bauer 25acp - stainless copy of the Baby Browning.
Got it cheap at auction because it doesn't have a magazine.
Anybody got a spare magazine for sale?

EDIT: Found some magazines.

 

[regalsc]

A sig p226 legion SAO because I don't have any high capacity guns & can't stand plastic guns.

Last week I picked up a CZ 455 American. Why? Because I finally am starting to shoot .22LR again. I took my wz78 out the weekend before and just had a great time. The wz weighs about 9 pounds and I wanted something a bit lighter- hence the 455.

Before the 455 my next most recent purchase was a SD9VE. Why? I have several Sigs and CZ semis and just wanted to see what people found attractive about poly pistols. And because I have several S&W revolvers and think highly of S&W, I bought a S&W poly pistol instead of a Glock.

 

[Oldline]

An S&W 4513TSW (early model), three 6 round mags, OEM box, in what looks to be really good shape from the pics, described as 95 percent. I haven't seen it yet, it's in transit.

Why? It was an involuntary reaction, I've been wanting one since getting a 457, I saw the price, clicked a couple buttons, dialed the phone and started reciting my credit card number. I seem to be in the middle of a third gen buying binge.

I bought a stripped PSA "flag" lower last night. I have two uppers that share one lower so I'll remedy that.

 

[its_Dale]

a 5903 that a coworker was selling for cheap. I bought it because I can't find a 4506 lol

 

[T. McIntyre]

After no small amount of searching, I found a rather clean 4506 w/ box, and the seller said he was the second owner. It was not an LE issued gun (to my knowledge), and therefore has not been thrashed on, unlike many of the 4506s I have seen.

Clean versions are becoming like unicorns these days.

It literally will feed empty cases!

A very fun gun!

Bought 2 . A Ruger SR22 and an M&P22. Wanted something cheaper to shoot but with a nice feel to them. Of the 2 I like the M&P a little better. Has a big gun feel. Both are excellent choices.

 

[cherrypointmarine]

I've also bought two recently. first was a m1006 I traded for with a forum member. That was my only 10mm. This last gun show I picked up a m1076, mainly because my m1006 was lonely.As to why, I was a revolver guy, but saw the light after a deal with Sevens. Now, I can't pass up a deal on a 1,2 or 3rd gen semi.

Most recent

My most recent purchase was a SIG P220 10mm Elite DAO, why? because I already have a 1006 and I can’t find or afford a Bren 10. Oh I also took delivery of my Delta Elite that I had cut down into a bobtailed Delta Commander (this Tuesday). How many 10mm’s are to many? 1-Delta Commander, 1-DW Razorback, 1-1006, 1-SIG P220 1-Glock 20 (the only Tupperware I own) Glocks are like Ginger’s they have no soul
Edit
Just seen a Bren 10 today (first time in person) it’s at the upper end of what I would spend on a gun, especially one that probably shouldn’t be shot. I think they are on the homely side and it truly has the battle rattle.

Just ordered a scope for the Gamo .22 pellet rifle.

UTG 3-9X32 1" BugBuster Scope, AO

Needed something for long range AND close range work (mice/rats around the house). AO adjusts down to 3 yards (advertised) - Much closer than I need, but 7-10 isn't unusual. And, 3-9 zoom will get me out 100+ yards, for the long shots. Probably further than the accuracy of the rifle? It's been accurate out to 65 yards though. I like the thought of a scope covering all the distances I might need to cover, for a pellet rifle.

Eyesight isn't what it used to be, so open sights have been unreliable for ethical kills at any distance.

Last new gun was my Victory 22. And just a couple days ago I picked up my S&W Mod 10-8 4" bull barrel. I sold off my two Beretta's & I plan on picking up a S&W revolver. I've been bitten hard by the revolver bug.

It's a lot more shinier since i cleaned off the grime & dust

 

[hemiram]

I got this apparently unfired Jericho 941 Semi-Compact a few days ago. I love CZ clones, especially all steel ones:

 

[BEEMER1]

A Remington R51 because it was under $300 and I can get a $100 rebate.

I am mainly curious about the action.

 

[Bullseye 2620]

This, a Hammerli 208s. . .

because it can do this routinely at 25 yards in rapid fire. . .

 

[SOTVEN]

a 4506-1. because its a 4506-1.
