new gun suggestions - what would you buy?

Rather than buying a new gun, buy equipment that you don't have for the guns you already own,, Optics, nylon gear, bipods, carry cases, you get the idea.
 
$600 to spend on a gun... Geez...

Well here are the guns on my 06' list for under $600

Glock 20
Glock 30
Walther P99
Mosin Nagant 91/30
Yugo SKS
Used Beretta 92fs
Springfield 1903A3 (If it doesn't get sold before I can get my paws on it)

Slightly over $600

M1 Garand ($599, but it'll be over with tax)

Guns I already own for under $600

Walther P38 (You can still find 'em for about two and half bills with 2 mags and holster)
Browning High Power (bought mine used LNIB for $500 +tax, two mags)
Ruger No.1 (papaw gave it to me. 22-250. I can pick the letter to hit on a coke can at 150 yards, so the rifle itself has to be better than that.)
Marlin Model 60 (.22s are fun)
Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk.III (great granddad brought it back from Europe in 1918. It's since become a family heirloom).
 
grimjaw,

RE: cz 527 in 7.62x39;

Congratulations! I think it is a great idea; a handy little bolt-action in a light medium bore cartridge like the 7.62x39. Especially CZ's Mauser type action.

Let us know how it shoots!

how about geting a new ar15 upper. i was thinking of geting a 9mm upper, but it would seriously make me feel like i wasted money on the beretta carbine i bought a couple months ago. ...in fact i already feel like that, im really wanting a 9mm ar15... :)
 
Rifle-Marlin 336 XLR .30-30
Pistol- SIG P229 .40
Shotgun-Remington 11-87

I would recommend the Remington 700 VLS, but I already have it.
 
If you go to a car dealer and tell him you want to spend $30,000 on a car, you get a $30,000 car. With anything I buy, I like value. I want to get the most for my money. With $600, you can get two guns or one gun and a lot of ammo. My favorite value brands are Taraus and Ruger, but my Rock Island Armory .45 is growing on me. If I were just starting out, I would get the Rock Island AND an SKS. That way, you have a capable handgun and a capable rifle. If you already own guns, look for something that fills a gap in your collection.

Great! No one beat me to it, here goes:

Get yourself a Rock Island Armory 1911 .45acp!

With the money you save over buying the other suggested pieces of firearms, get a progressive reloading machine...only way you can enjoy shooting a lot! Unless you just won the lottery...then I'll have to bill you for the advice!!! :)

+1
and +1 again.
