$10K - What do you Buy?

[Werewolf]

OKAY...

You just got $10,000. It's pure mad money. You don't need to save it for a rainy day, you don't need to pay off any bills, you don't need to buy your wife any kind of gift (cause she's getting her own $10,000) and you've decided to spend it all on GUNS or GUN related stuff. What do you get?

MY List:

Some kind of Bushmaster with a 20" barrel 5.56mm with Scope
A Springfield Armory 1911 type pistol
A Springfield Amory M1A
A Savage 10FP in .308 (???) with a top of the line 4 - 12X Scope
A Dillon 550B Progressive with dies & accesories for .45 Colt, 5.56mm, .308 and .45ACP
3 or 4 High Cap Mags for my Glock 22
A very high quality, very cool Cowboy Action double holster pistol rig
Ivory Grips for my Ruger Vaqueros
Marlin 1894 Cowboy Lever Gun in .45 Colt
A complete Wyatt Earp style costume for Cowboy action Shooting

OKAY now I've still got a bunch of money left over - what to buy? What to buy?

What would you buy?

(there's a method to my madness - )

[HABU]

A Barrett!

Your gonna have money left over and you are only getting a Dillon 550? Its your list, but you may be sorry you dint start with the 650!

 

[duckfoot]

Bulid a 1K range, AR50, and ammo

 

[Hkmp5sd]

M-2 Machinegun.
Thompson SMG.

The only one of either you are going to get with $10k is the Airsoft or squirt-gun models.


For me:

Shrike.
Suppressed Ruger MkII
Suppressed Ruger 10/22
Bushmaster .22LR upper

 

[ny32182]

Sig 55X

Or

Some sort of .50 BMG.

 

[Bob R]

Barrett M82A1

Thompson SMG (1928 Navy model)

Of course, I may have to dip into my rainy day fund a little bit. But not to much.

[TechBrute]

AR-10
DSA FAL
Another pre-ban AR-15
Blaser LRS2
Carbon 15
M1A
Volquartsen .17
Bigger safe

 

[Schuey2002]

I'd drop Fjvollmer an email and tell them to set these guns aside..

A minty HK 93-A2 (in 98%+ condition),
A minty HK 94-A3 (in the same condition),
A LNIB green 16" barrel Steyr Aug.

Plus, lots o' mags and ammo for all three.

 

[Penforhire]

A .50 (Barrett or other) could eat most of that mad money. You'd need the rest for ammo

 

[Bergeron]

I would build my ultimate fun gun.

Start with a pre-84 M16 SEF.

Buy a JP hopped up .22 lr upper.

Get the barrel threaded for a suppressor.

Aquire cool gadgets to hang off of it.

Full auto, supressed .22lr. Can't beat it.

And since I'm in Louisiana, it all ought to be legal.

 

[ocabj]

Wilson CQB
Les Baer Ultimate Master
Remington 700P/PSS .308W + optics
Savage 110FP Accutrigger .300WM + McMillan A5 Stock + optics
Springfield M25 "White Feather"
Sinclair Arbor Press + Wilson SS Hand Dies
Harrell Powder Measure(s)
Lots of Sierra Match King 168/175gr .30 cal bullets
Kowa 82mm spotting scope
Leica 1200 Laser Rangefinder

Not sure if I tipped the scales on this list. Might be over $10k.

 

[TXBera]

Hmm, still have to start collection so...

Walther P99 9mm & .40
SA Long Slide 1911
SA Mil-Spec 1911
SA Standard M1A
Colt AR15A2
S&W 617 6"

 

[Fed168]

A good custom .308, a 945, 952, the 6" PPC gun, a suppressor to two, heck the list is too long.

 

[jercamp45]

Well......

its cheating some...but a chunk of land up near Reno/Tahoe that can be my range(it's only a down payment , of course, and other facilities will be there...Cabin, Base Camp whatever. Fishing, hunting, shooting, class !!, CCW...my kinda place!

But if its just for toys:
Start with a dillon press 550 probably.
A Colt 1911(WWI)
A Caspian frame and damascus slide for a fancy 1911
All the internals and assembly for above
Sharkskin Leather for above
A .460 Rowland Conversion Barrel
A Bushmaster Dissapator
A .458 Socom upper
Dies for .458
A trip to Thunder Ranch or.....other facility that grabs my interest
And, if anything is left over
Ammo, Ammo, Ammo

[jacketch]

After I bought a DSA FAL I'd spend it all on training

 

[repsychler]

I'd definately go class 3. I'm limited to C&R MGs here, so I could either get a Thompson, or maybe something cheaper like an S&W 76. One day.

 

[1badmagnum]

50 bmg and some ammo!

50 BMG FLAME

 

[Ohen Cepel]

Some great ideas already listed.

I would include a crate of CZ-52's and a crate of nagants. I think the CZ's are a great buy and I would love to pop the lid off a crate of nagants, put a piece of glass on it and use it as a coffee table. Great convo piece!

Oh, and if you don't have one I would custom order a Randall knife for yourself. Not that expensive really, just a long wait.
