As some of you know, I've been waiting on a rather large (for me anyways) check from the Army for a couple months now. Well, it went into the bank this morning, so I went out and bought some toys. Of course, I paid off the truck and all of my credit cards first.
For starters, I picked up an 870 Express last Thursday, which I was able to do because I was getting my money today. That shotgun is 28", with 2 3/4" chambers. Cost: $150 + tax and background check.
First stop today, I bought a new Olympic Arms PCR-5 (AR-15) (with 10 round mag, Brit 30 round mag, and hard-case), a used Para-Ordnance C7-45 LDA (with two Wilson Combat mags, video and box), and 500 rounds Silver Bear 5.56mm. Cost: $1485 out the door.
Second stop, I got an 870 Police Magnum with 18" bbl and a Heritage Rough Rider .22LR/.22 MAG single action, 7" bbl, and a speedloader pouch. Cost: $499 out the door.
Third stop was Wal-Mart, where I picked up 450 rounds 2 3/4" 12 ga. #7 1/2 shot and 50 rounds 2 3/4" #6 shot.
I also bought a Beretta 3032 Tomcat with extra mag on Gunbroker for $289 plus shipping and transfer fee.
All in all, it's been a fun day. I can't wait to get to the range later this week.
