One Gun - One Box of Ammo

[Gun Master]

If you were limited to only one handgun, and one box of ammo, what would your choices be ? Part 1: If money were no object ? Part 2: In your current budget ? Please be specific and give full info on gun and type of ammo. Both can be the same.

Get it ?

1. Full house custom 1911 in .45 or Super .38 - from Heirloom Precision, I think. Does a 1000 rd case of Speer 230 gr Gold Dots/Corbon DPX 125 gr +P count as just one box?

2. My Colt Wiley Clapp Government. Speer 230 gr Gold Dot.

Can I keep my .22 conversion kit or no?

 

[Ringer]

Part 1: Gen 3 Glock 19 configured to fit my hand, i.e. finger grooves removed. 124 gr Federal HST.

Part 2: Gen 3 Glock 19 configured to fit my hand, i.e. finger grooves removed. 124 gr Federal HST.

 

[TanklessPro]

Part 1: Sig 1911 Nightmare carry in 357 sig with 125 grain federal HST

Part 2: the same as part 1

Now if they would only produce one......

 

[WRGADog]

Sig P226 Blackwater, Winchester Ranger 147 grain Bonded.

 

[StrawHat]

Since the ammunition is limited to 50 rounds (post 29 or 30), no reason to play this game.

 

[bannockburn]

Colt Special Combat Government with Speer 230 gr. Gold Dot ammo.

In addition I'm also keeping my TacSol .22 conversion assembly with a brick of Wolf Match Target ammo.

 

[Sam1911]

Whatever I could sell for the most money.

I don't have any use for any gun with only one box of ammo to go with it.

A gun you can't train and practice with is just an expensive talisman.

 

[45_auto]

I don't have any use for any gun with only one box of ammo to go with it.

Wouldn't that kind of depend on how big the box was?

When I was stationed overseas in the mid-70's on a special weapons site, we only had one box of .223 in the guard house.

It was either 12,000 or 15,000 rounds, I don't remember which. Anyway, I would think that a box of that quantity would easily supply you with enough to train and practice with for at least a year or so.

 

[Sam1911]

Awesome, you're right! I could get by on a couple tons of ammo, if that's what fits in the box.

 

[OldBrownDog]

I think this question would be better phrased "If you were limited to only one handgun, and one type of ammo, what would your choices be?"

 

[BSA1]

Well since the O.P didn't define the size of the box so the field is wide open.
But resupply will eventually become a problem.

My choice will be a flintlock pistol with a large container of blackpowder. Since everything for a flintlock comes from nature resupply will not much of a issue.

Part 2 - Glock 19 w/Heine night sights + Federal 124gr +P HST LE

 

[JDR]

If you can only have 1 gun & caliber, you need a gun & caliber that does it all;

Dan Wesson Titan 10mm & 1000 rounds of Georgia Arms New Canned Heat 10mm 180gr Full Metal Jacket ammo. Since I can only have 1, I can spend $3,829.00 for it

[SigFTW]

1.
Coonan 357
My reloads

2.
Kimber Solo
Any SD ammo will do.

 

[mavracer]

Ok but only if this counts as one box of ammo.

In that case here's a list of possible suspects
3" Smith 629 and fill the box with Fed 240 hydra shoks
Wiley Clapp GP100 with 145gr Silvertips
Les Baer 45 with 230 Golddots
Dan Wesson PM7 10mm with Georgia arms 180 goldots
CZ Tac Sport 9mm with 124 +p golddots.

 

[aarondhgraham]

I'll go old school,,,

S&W Model 18,,,
I bulk pack of Federal .22 LR.

 

[gamestalker]

S&W "K" frame in .357 mag.

158 gr. Gold Dots loaded with H110. I don't do factory ammo.

GS

 

[Rick R]

I already own it. A S&W 629 Mountain Gun in .44 Mag. Ammo would be a mid range load using a 250gr Keith style bullet. Like Mavracer indicated, I'd like it by the BOXcar please.

I've shot IDPA courses and hit metallic silhouette targets at a couple hundred rounds with that pistol and load in the past.

I really couldn't think of a better "for the rest of your life" type gun no matter what the expense.

 

[Sam1911]

I love shooting practical matches with my 4" 629 as well! Great choice!

While he's got a lot of posts under him, methinks the OP sounds too much like
a representative of the current administration....
All you plebes be happy with one gun and one box of ammo, we'll keep regulating and taking care of you...

No offense to the OP, Please pass the popcorn.
