I went on a shopping spree on Fri. I bought a Ruger .357 revolver and a Bushmaster AR15 in .223 cal. That was an expensive BUT fun day. I bought the .357 to carry on me bowhunting and to keep in the nightstand at home and I am really not sure why I bought the AR15. Oh yeah, the election. Dull

Anyone else bought anything lately? Lets hear what, why, ect!!!!! Smile

Just ordered a Kimber Custom Select in 35 Whelen but it won't be in till summer at the earliest Sad Also ordered a Leupold VX6 2-12x42 to go on top of it. It looks like it's time to start getting reloading stuff for the 35!

3 new (to me) guns so far this year 1st was a later model chinese SKS that i have made tactical, 2nd was my ruger LCP for CC (still waiting for permit in mail) and the most recent was a remington 870 12 gauge combo i got all 3 for extremely good deals. The next 2 on the list are a model 60 .22LR as a gift for my father and a Walther p22 that would make 5 guns this year which is probably gonna push my fiance's buttons but ohwell the p22 is for her Cool

First 5 shots out of the Rem 1911 - R1 @ 10yds from a rest. 4.6gr/TiteGroup and 230FMJ. Good start. Tomorrow I get serious with cast boolits.

Just picked up a never fired Gen 3 Glock 19. Never owned a Glock but so far I'm liking it.

I've put about 100 rds down the pipe. So far I am very impressed. I ran a box of remington ball, and a box of federal ball no FTF or FTE. From a rest at 25 yards I easily held 5 shoot groups inside of 2in's with the open sights. The limiting factor is me. Its tight, forged frame, match barrel and no frills. If I felt the need to ditch my current carry piece for this pistol I would have to lose the Bomar style sights, but that is one of the reasons I purchased it so that is not happening. Its every bit as good if not better than my old National match .45 I was issued when I shot competitively. I will eventually get my SR1911 but after the hype and price settle down. I had one in my hand the day I purchased the RO. On that day based on disassembly, dry firing, and overall fit and finish I put the SR1911 down and went with the RO, and I am a pretty die hard Ruger guy. The RO was about $50.00 more and based on my experience with 1911's a better deal for what I wanted. The SR1911 is gone as the guy right behind me bought it.

shoot straight and shoot often GF

Not a new gun but I did just get a pair of Crimson Trace laser grips for my 1911.

A Springfield armory 1911 Range Officer in 45ACP. I'm traditionally a Ruger guy and was looking for a SR1911 also. Just found the range officer 1st, all in due time.

shoot straight and shoot often. GF

As mentioned the Sig P250 is Double action only. There is no single action feature to that gun.

I won't buy a double action only pistol as I love shooting at the range and don't want a long trigger pull of a DAO. I have a FN FNX and a Taurus PT140 Millennium Pro and shoot both! Both are DA / SA. That is the way I like it!

Hardcore, how often does one operate a DA/SA pistol in DA anyhow?

It's a very rare that I have occasion to shoot my Beretta M9 in DA; most commonly, I load a new mag, rack it, and it's ready to go in SA.
