$10K - What do you Buy?

Trigger job for Savage 110.

The absolute best Leupold I could get my hands on.

Reloading equipment and tons of components.

A used S&W 686.

A Labrador Retriever.
 
Two flattop 20" Armalite AR-10s, 20 or so magazines, and good optics for both. That's $5000 right there (ouch!)

Two Steyr M40s (been wanting to try those out!) Ten magazines, night sights, Kydex holsters from Comp-Tac. Around $1000.

A Pardini PC45 with a Doctersight and Rink grips. $1500.

A Dillon 550b with all the fruit. Dies for .40, .45ACP, .308, .223, etc. $600.

Basic and Advanced pistol courses with Matt Burkett. $600, last time I checked.

LFI-I. $500 around here.

$800 left. I dunno, that 15th century Cut-and-Thrust sword from Christian Fletcher would sure look good hanging above the fireplace. Or maybe buy a Wilton Square Wheel belt grinder and finally make my own...

Ruger Stock

I'd buy 921 shares of Ruger stock. Then use the $736.00 in dividends each year to buy guns.
Bob:neener:
 
First, 10% to my church.
Then contact Fulton Armory for one each of their beautiful:
M1 Garand's
M1 Carbine's
and possibly a M14/M1A.
Then find a Model 1911/A1 in mint condition.
Then get a nice display case made for all of the above.
Then I'd rest with a big smile on my face.:)
 
Barret Mod 82A1 w/optics, .50 BMG reloading package, ammo. Leftovers go to CZ-97B, CZ-85 Combat, Biathlon Basic, and a Dillon XL 650 w/caliber conversions.

A ONE Way ticket for me and mine OUT of IL.
If there were any money left when we got where we were going, then I think a new SA and LG would be in order.
 
My list:

Send my 92FS off to LTT (Level II Trigger job) ~ $150
Send my 228 off to LTT (Trigger work and Night Sights) ~ $250
Send my 17's off to Robar (NP-3 finish and Nihgt Sights) ~ $600
Send my 239 off to Robar (NP-3 2 tone finish and night sights) ~ $300
Send my 228 off to Robar (for finish work, after it returns from LTT) ~ $300
Send my M1A off to Fulton Armory (for a Barrel and trigger work) ~$ ?
Send Arizona responce 2 of my Mossy 500's (Re-fininsh then in Olive Drab and a Black Parkerization Job) ~ $400
Send Magna-Port a couple of my L frames ~$ 350

Then:

4 new AR's in different configurations ~ $4000
DSA Built FAL (Type III receiver + some other goodies) ~ $1700

The rest is for Ammo and Mags!
 
I would buy:

M1A Squad Scout
Remington ADL with a good scope
a good scope for my .22 rifle
HK MK23
Keltec P3AT
Kahr K9
Glock 17 w/ mepros
a bunch of mags for the above guns
holsters for the Kahr and Keltec
ammo
more ammo
 
Don't some of you guys really like the SIG550? Wouldn't that eat a sizeable chunk of this fictional $10,000?
 
St John, yes, quite a few of us do like the SIG SG 55x series. Unfortunately, the whole series is prohibited from importation except for LE and mil, even in semi-auto form. I could be, and sincerely hope I am, wrong, but I'm pretty certain.
 
Barrett .50BMG
Beretta CX4 Storm
Les Baer SRP
RobArm M96 Recon
Kel-Tec Sub2000
Remington 700 PSS
Benelli M1 Field
Chinese Dragunov
