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

Last week, I stumbled across a new Grade I Browning lever action BL-22 at a LGS that struck my fancy. Years ago, I owned a Grade II BL-22 that I should have held onto. I bought the Grade I because I missed having the little lever action plinker, and I needed something to lift my spirits. I cleaned, oiled, and waxed it, but I haven't shot the little devil yet. I expect it will be every bit as accurate and fun to shoot as the BL-22 I formerly owned.

A post-war Military & Police. Why? Because you can’t have too many K frames:) Seriously, after years of accumulating Combat Masterpieces, this was my first M&P/Model 10 type. Something about that 5” tapered barrel struck me, and the price was right for the great condition it’s in. I just picked it up today. Sorry, no pics yet.
 
Forgot about this one, was sitting at my FFL for almost two weeks. :) Minty :rolleyes: with 4 mags.

Why? I had a stainless CS9 for many years, but traded it for a CS45 to a good friend. A couple days later I got the bug again to get another CS9 and wound up with two. :eek:

My two CS9’s and the CS45 I traded for.

Who’da thunk it?

Oh, the factory grips fit me just fine, and look good too, imo.

Glock 34 Gen 5. This is the target model with 5.2 inch barrel.
Bought it to shoot indoor ASI matches at
Heritage Training Academy in Frederick Md.
Unbelievable facility!
 
Well , since the last time I posted , I bought a M3913LS also . I could say it's for my wife to go with her M60LS , but I can't . I just like the looks and how it fits in my small hands . I wish this post would go away , it gives me an excuse to buy another S&W .
 
I've gotten bitten a bit also in the last few months....I guess you can say I've been a a bit of a tear...

First there was the 637PD in December, then there was the 3" 64-3 in February (where the heck was I in January!). Next, came along a sweet 3953TSW 9 Tactical (my first SW Gen 2 or 3 in a while). The family continued to grow in March, with a 1969 vintage Suffolk County Police Department (retired) 15-3.

Who would have thought that days later a 1959(?) vintage Model 23 would join the brood?
And so it continues.... an ANIB 3914DAO (NYPD) will be coming home on Tuesday...

The last two handguns that I bought have been Colt's. In Jan. I bought a Model 1903 Hammer in .38 ACP. The other day I picked up a Colt New Service Model 1909 U.S.Army in .45 Colt. Shoots good.

All you guys make me glad I bought the majority of my pieces 8-10 years ago. After seeing and knowing what they sell for these days makes me want to hold on to them forever. I would have bought every 3rd gen ever made if I knew the demand would be like this now. I don’t plan to sell any of third gen smiths but they sky upinto nighthawk territory I just might. Thank gosh I bought while the getting was good.

I added a 380 to my collection but paying 500 plus for used chief specials just ain’t in my plans. Lol

When you bought all your S&W's 10 years ago the old farts were saying the same thing.

Only the widows and their children make a profit on guns. :D
 
here are my recent purchases a "para-ordnance p16-40 for its look, its great capacity and for its caliber 40 S & W that I do not use yet, and the second the S & W 4506 because I have always loved this gun and it is very rare here in Belgium




Fuch from Belgium
