The only requirement is that the money goes to guns or gun accessories.

What would you go out and buy?
 
Another full-house custom built 1911.
Top-notch (maybe Wilson or Baer) AR flat-top with excellent glass
A new safe (current one is overflowing now)
A metric butt-ton of mags for everything (1911s, ARs, wifes' Sig, etc.)
Progressive press with auto case feeder.
Bolt action .22 for my son (got one, but 20,000 can get a better one)
pump 20ga for my son (right now he stands to "inherit" my wifes)
All the reloading components I can fit in my house.
 
Big safe, reloading supplies, classic 1911 from WWI or WWII, M1 Garand, M1 carbine, K98 Mauser, other milsurps.

20K really isn't much, you could whizz that away pretty quick on just a couple of guns. There's a shop here in Denver where 5 figure sporting guns aren't unusual. And they have .700 Nitro Express ammo in stock.
 
The Steyr HS-50 I just saw at a pawn shop today. Wow!

A Barret BORS with scope for HS-50.

Latest generation nightvision.

AWC Turbodyne suppressor.

Done.
 
CZ 750. CZ550 varmint laminated 22-250. CZ 550 FS 270. (2) CZ 75s. CZ 527 American Maple 223. Benelli Super Black Eagle II. Rock River AR. Pelican double scoped rifle case. (2) "Tactical" cases. Springfield 1911. M1 socom. CMP Garand. (2) AK 47s of some type. Reloading equipment. Mags and glass for all that need them and spend the rest on ammo components.

Which store are you speaking of? I'm relatively new here, but it sounds like it might make for a good saturday.
 
I'd break the rules and use it to rent a house off campus so i could actually have firearms.

Whatever is left would go to:
AR
Walther P22
XD-9
some sort of O/U shotgun
Rifle in 338 Lapua

And accessories for all. Holsters, Scopes, slings, etc...

And Stockpile ammo
 
- A S&W steel-J-Frame wheel gun, a good holster and 2 speedloaders
- about 50 Checkmate 7-round magazines for my 1911
- A Kongsberg precision rifle: Lefty, .308. and a Schmidt+Bender scope for it.
- reloading die sets for .357 mag and .308, some tons of bullets, primers and powder.

Ah, wait a minute...20.000 ist not all that much...could you extent the budget for some things I´d like to have just for fun ;-) ?

A couple of decent safes, an FAL, a Browning BT-99, a SIG P220 Match, and as much ammo as I can get with whatever is left.
 
Barret M82 .50 cal
Springfield M1a + Eotech
Bushmaster AR15 A3 + quad rail + ACOG
Remington LTR + NF Scope
FAL
M1 Carbine

And whatever is left on ammo; which wouldn't be much
 
I'd get a S&W 686,
a USFA .45
a custom 1911(prob wilsons)
a pre 64-.30-.30
a colt AR
a marlin 39A
a XD
a Marlin 45-.70
a shorter barrel for my mossberg 500
a ruger single six
a ruger LCP
and another 1911 maybe custom maybe not depending on how much I had left over. The rest on ammo, wilson, mags, and cleaning supplies
 
20k?

Hmm....

an AK47 made from Titanium.

and a Truck full of ammo.

( MP7 and a truckload of ammo would be nice too)
