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

My most recent firearm purchase is a Smith Model 340PD, my most recent semi is an Atlanta Police trade in 5903. I wish it could talk.

My second most recent buy is a gen. 2 Glock 22 (my 17th Glock purchase) from a forum member last Tuesday.

The week before the eclipse I had made an offer on a Sig P320c in .357 Sig and was angrily turned down. A few days later he wanted to meet, but we were gone to view the eclipse. I arranged to meet him on the 23rd but he never showed. He contacted me again, wanting to meet last Tuesday afternoon or evening.

I met him, and another guy who was selling the Sig guy a Glock 19. However, Sig guy had sold two of the mags and the holster that came with the P320 to "off-set his loss". I said "no deal" and began to leave. Glock 19 guy got FURIOUS, as apparently Sig guy had put him off four or five times. Without my money, Sig guy could not make the transaction.

I bought my eighteenth Glock, $325.00 from the Glock guy. Sig guy is standing there mad and dumb-founded as I drive away.

I sold the LH holster I got with the Glock for $20.00 and sold the Glock 19 to a former co-worker for $300.00, losing $5.00 on top of my time and gas. I am more than pleased.

In my ongoing quest to dump cheap plastic and replace them all with all-metal guns, I recently committed to buy a 9mm CZ RAMI, safety/dual mode model. :) I wanted the decocker model with night sights, but they must be between production runs right now and none are available anywhere... plus the street price (if you manage to actually find one) is substantially more that the safety/dual mode version. Price matters a lot to a poor old man like me... :o ... plus the dual mode does offer me options. :cool:

This is my third CZ pistol and probably my last as I'm not getting any younger and I still have other goals to achieve for the collection before my "good years" are up. :)

One of the lgs has a new Rami but I'd want the decocker, and the gun feels a little "blocky" to me, so I left it. I think it was $559 before tax.

Yep. Only safety/dual mode versions available right now with no ETA on the decocker models. :( Your price sounds about right for a free state. It is a somewhat unique feel. I happen to like it but remember that I am a compact staggered magazine kind of guy. :D

I was actually very interested in the Rami until I held perfectionin my hand, a PCR. :)
I'm waiting on the PCR decocker.
 
For me I had 2 opportunities this summer.

1 -was 7 shotguns and a 22 glenfield rifle I got from an aquatinance who was downsizing, included a Beretta A400 xplor in 20, 3 mossy 500s, a franchi insight L-$700. Yeah I know, I stole it, but he wanted to divest & I was there at the right time w/ cash in hand.

2- I won an XD mod 2 9mm 3 inch at our state IDPA match.

That said I have my eyes on another 1911........

Guess the last/latest one was a nice shooter grade pre-18 Combat Masterpiece at the NE O Spring Bunching...... a "salt and pepper set" 6906 and a 6904 both ANIB...... since the beginning of the year Average price $292.

Oh ya over the summer..... some plastic; a full size M&P 9 and a M&P.22 compact both as new and still in the box............market is so soft hard to pass up deals. got about $500 in the pair.

I keep telling myself ENOUGH!!!!!!

Most recent?
An early M639, round trigger guard and fixed rear sight.

Why?
I have no idea as it doesn't fit my collecting criteria. (has to be older than me.) It was there, I was there, and the price was tempting.

I will probably just move it along or trade into something that does fit.
 
I have been wanting a 3inch 686 for some time.This one being a Plus model was icing on th cake !

Mossberg 12 guage Shockwave.

In case one of those packs of crazed meth heads they talk about in the Concealed Carry section here.........really exists. ;) Regards 18DAI
 
Bought 2 - a 586 no dash 6 inch Nickle and a Model 27-2. They are both in the pipeline so to speak. One supposed to be delivered to my local FFL tomorrow, the other one a MO went out on Sat. Should see it sometime soon. Before that, model 28-2, a model 19 and on and on. I am not sure where it will end. I have the itch ! I need more cow bell !
