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

My latest purchase was a S&W Victory 22 in camo. Put a tandemkross triger in it and a red dot scope on it. My grandkids want me to teach how to shoot a target pistol and they said the camo was cool. I took them to a gun safety class and they sure are learning how to shoot. Wish I had thier steady hands. It is a great feeling knowing I am passing on my love for guns on to them.
 
22A-1 & 3" 617 ...

Bought after finding out the wife needs to start with something less than a .38. Even wadcutters resulted in wild flinching and 5' groups at 10 yards.

Picked up the 22A so I would have a plinker too. The optic on it cost more than the gun.

Because it was on sale! I really like the P220's, but the G10 grips and SRT kit are necessary for me. This one came with both from the factory.

4506-1.

Why? Because I've been looking for a like new for several years and just keep watching them get more expensive with each passing auction. Just bite the bullet and wrote the check.

my latest was a Model 642 w/o the IL. My usual EDC is a 1969 Model 60. I did not want to put too much wear on it, so I got the 642. As well, if I ever lost it for "some" reason I'd rather lose the 642 as it is less expensive and easier to replace than the 60. Below is a pic of my 60.

Model 13 4" in great condition. Why? Because my purchase before this was a Model 686+ Talo and I am hooked on revolvers at the moment
 
NIB S-W M&P M2.0 9mm.

Why: Only had one Plastic Semi Auto (SA XDs 9) and wanted a longer barrel 9mm semi. Also price was great.
 
Don't laugh. I bought a Judge. I thought it would be handy for a fishing sidearm. I had one before and sold it. For some reason I missed it. I ran into another in nice shape so I bought it.
 
I bought a used, low mileage, M&P9c back in 2009. It had had an action done by a well regarded gunsmith.

After about a year, I sold it so that I could buy a barely used S&W 6906.

Why? Because even with the action job, I hated the trigger. And the fact that the slide clunked when it it cycled. Oh, and it was almost impossible to put 10 rounds in the 10 round magazine.

Thus started my love affair with the 3rd Gen semi autos. :D

I just purchased a Glock 43 because the factory trigger in my M&P 9c sucked so bad.
 
Well, I really need to diversify and I am going to slow down and look into something other than wheel guns....but these came home with me. 2 Model 32-1 in 38sw. They were just to cool to leave behind.....but really I have to go cold turkey now.......unless a 610 comes along at a reasonable price.
