When I was a kid, my dad had a 10ga Mercury Magnum which was a double barrel shotgun.
I don't recall him actually shooting it but he had one and man that thing was big and heavy. I believe he bought it in the early 1960's, which would probably be the same time period as yours.
The last DS I looked at back in the day was so poorly made the cylinder slop was so bad, I considered it being unsafe, especially for a NIB gun.
$2200??? oh hell no
I'm sort of a Colt fan with a 1911 and a couple ARs---but for me their revolvers have left something to be desired.
I've also have been looking at these---but kind of waiting for the newness to wear off and the price to come down and for Ruger to shake all the bugs out.

I bought a new one and changed the grips to make it like an old one---those Hogue's are hideous. But love the Hogue grips on my SP101--more of an ice cream cone shape.
"Probably" a new Mini-30
I've had AKs in the past and dislike AKs but I like the round. Plus the Mini is now less expensive than a AK these days despite being expensive itself.
Have already bought another Glock this year.
I had 2 PX4s---the sub compact 9mm non rotating barrel was good at getting shotgun like groups---nope bye bye
The other was a full size 45 jamamatic---again bye bye
Neither would be what most people buy--which I think would be the compact and full size 9mm---so maybe take my experience with a...
Might want to push your timeline back a bit----I went to Yellowstone in 16 and 17 in JUNE---in 16, I only brought summer gear and literally froze my butt off---who knew?? Ice was on my tent every morning------In 17, I was prepared, and it started snowing as soon as I got my tent up--in June--and...
