Hey everyone! New to posting, but familiar with THR as I usually sniff around here for answers.
I am looking to get a new gun and I don't know what to do.
Here is what I have:
Sig Mosquito threaded
H&R revolver .22
Savage Mark II .22
(2) Old semi-auto tube-fed .22 rifles, 1 threaded (name escapes me)
Remington 41P single shot .22 rifle threaded
S&W M&P15-22 threaded
Beretta 950 .25 (alternate carry gun)
Nagant m1895 7.62n
Star 1911? 9mm
Sig P229 Elite Dark 9mm threaded
Sig P938 SAS 9mm (primary carry gun)
Ruger Security Six .357
SKS
Mossberg 500 (old with pachmayr grips, home defense gun)
Remington 11-87
Suppressors for .22 and 9mm
I have a 1911 in .45 on the way.
I notice as I write this that I am missing a long(longer than SKS) platform. Maybe something in .308?
Or do I go with a bolt action in 7.62x39 to utilize the countless thousands of rounds I have for that? Will that be any longer than my SKS? Or maybe that awesome looking Sig 556R? But I don't know if that is 'enough' different than my SKS.
Maybe a .308 platform like an AR10, I know they can be as accurate as a bolt action if set up properly, the difference in accuracy would probably only be limited by my abilities.
I am trying to avoid a straight up AR15 platform as I feel like I already have a viable 'battle carbine' with the SKS.
So what am I missing? Budget is $1200-1500.
I am not looking to hunt or compete, just round things out in the safe and have fun at the range and mountain house.
What do you think? Sorry for the long note.
