Guns, Gear, Accessories, Etc: What did you buy today?

[AK0perator47]

I got this box today! Not sure why I had to do paperwork for it! Maybe because it's a $1200 box?!

 

[Mrcorpuz360]

A Whopping 2 boxes of Winchester 223

Thought I'd give these Axis' a try. Found one on consignment for $269..... how I do?
Chamber 22-250.... read good things about the cartridge for accuracy.

Pretty good deal. We have a Remington 788 in a 22-250 that shoots 50gr v-max 5 shot groups you can hide under a dime. Another in a Savage LRPV that will do 55gr 5shots around .75 thinking about getting a Tikka T3X and a Sako Finnlight set up to mimic our hunting rifle. 22-250 on ground squirrels (blast), coyotes, for fun and to keep up on shooting practice during off season. You'll enjoy shooting that 22-250.

I think that it's a great job and no experience with the caliber but still a great rifle

Bought a 26in weatherby vanguard meat eater edition in 6.5-300 weatherby magnum.
Excited to go hunting with it

A Walther PDP Fullsize with 4.5" barrel. Not today but a not very long ago (they only came out a few weeks ago). Waiting for the optic plate so I can install a Vortex Viper RD. Holster choice is limited at this time. Will probable go with a C&G OWB because I have gained weight so IWB would require new pants or some dieting. I am thinking that OWB is concealable enough because Idaho allows open carry so printing or accidental exposure should not be a problem.

Picked this up today, looking forward to getting it setup tomorrow and hitting the range.

Selling my unfired Ruger Precision in 308; I decided I really only need so many heavy barrel 308 bench rifles, and that's the one that's never had shells in it, and is also coincidentally the one that's most likely to sell well. Popped the scope off it and reboxed it Sunday, taking it to the LGS maybe today.

I really only need so many

Geez, you sound like my wife. I think the word "need" should be replaced with "bubblegum" on this site, like all of the other bad words.

Well, here's what happened. I bought the Ruger and put it in the safe. Then I looked through a bunch of rifles I got a while back from an estate thing, and lo - I had something like 5 or 6 heavy barrel bench type 308 bolt action rifles. A couple Savages, a Winchester, a GA Precision ... etc.

I've not shot ANY of them, including the Ruger.

So, there you have it. I'll maybe buy a scope or a couple/3 rimfire rifles. Perhaps a 22wmr bolt, which I don't have one of.

But we're pretty stocked up on 308 bench rifles, you see.

Okay then. As long as the proceeds are directed to more firearms-related merchandise, I'll allow it. I just don't want my wife to pick up on any kind of "if you ain't shootin' 'em, you should be selling 'em" negative type of mojo. I don't think she's a member of this forum, so I probably don't have anything to worry about. But... ya never know. Of course, with current circumstances, one could always go with "but I can't find any ammo to shoot".

They do have their own channels. They talk. Your concern is completely rational.

Let this be our little secret.

Wife: "All the more reason to get rid of those dangerous things and put that money into something useful like shoes or jewelry or face cream!" *snort*

Ask 12 million Ukrainians how well "To each according to their needs" worked out when Stalin decided they didn't need to eat...

A cute little 22lr bolt rifle. It smiled at me, and I couldn't say no.

I was looking through my collection and realized I didn't have a 22 handgun. So I rectified the problem.
I should be picking up my little Ruger Wrangler this week.
Also with all the talk of selling guns I don't think I have ever sold any guns I have bought or inherited.

I sold one (Ruger MK2 5.5 BB) early on and regretted it for a bit. Then for a long time I had a buy never sell policy. Eventually I decided to switch to "fewer, better" and started divesting myself of a few.

That little MK2 was the first pistol I ever owned, and I should have kept it just because of that. But the rest I don't miss.

 

[mtorat]

I even have the Daisy BB gun I had when I was 6.

Thanks to Mr. Biden, I've ordered a 15" barrel (steel) blunderbuss. (There's a limerick in there somewhere, I think.)
