Long story short, in my early to mid-20s, I was all about old west style or updated old west style firearms. In my late 20s, the job situation turned into a great big turd, and I had to sell most of what I owned to get by.
Every now and then, I would get a little bit of spare cash and I tried out a few other types of firearms (a glock pistol, an inexpensive combo gun, a bolt action carbine). Nothing stuck or felt as right in the hands and as fun to shoot as lever action long guns and single action revolvers.
I'd really like to start rebuilding a collection moving in the direction of classic style firearms. I might even give CAS a try, though I'm not a fan of the idea of dressing up in a costume.
What makes and models are good these days? I'm also contemplating a selection of chamberings. I like the idea of the authentic hyphenated rounds, but I worry about ammo cost and availability.
Throwing an additional wrench into the works is the fact that any gun I buy has to double as a hunting gun (excepting maybe the revolver).
