Okay... i'm staying for un undetermined period of time in an undisclosed foreign nation in Central America.
It doesn't make fiscal sense to bring my guns in from Texas, so I need to buy something here.
As firearms are about 25%-50% more expensive (in general) here, the collection will grow a lot slower, and I need to start out with one gun, first. Here's where I need you to help me make up my mind with what to get first:
A.) .45 ACP. Possibly Glock, but most likely Govt. type model. I don't know what makes are available here. I know here are a lot of Spanish made guns available here, too, of different calibers. Should I stick with one of the big name makers?
B.) Pump action shotgun, like a Mossberg.
C.) AK-47 Variant.
D.) Sharp shooter Savage 10FP with Scope and Accutrigger.
By the way-- I'm living in a fairly good part of town now (although sh*t still happens, here!) ... with a gated community and armed guard out front, 24/7 (which it's common for the bad guys to pay off, as they make about $350 a week) and the U.S. and Bolivan Marines Share a Complex/Gated House across the street. They have a ton of armed guys with rifles and plainclothes guys with dogs-- inside their compound, so I don't expect them to come to my rescue, unless there is massive civil unrest (highly unlikely). And I'm not worried about a coup in this country-- more about street crime, break ins, and two/three/four man robbery teams.
So... what should I get?
