Your gun interest is growing in which direction?

[Kharn]

Military rifles -> pistols -> C&Rs -> practical social firearms.
But for the moment, I'm trying to concentrate more on becoming accurate with the ones I have, so I'm buying ammo instead of guns.

Military style/surplus rifles. Oh yeah, and coming up with creative ways to fund my newly aquired C&R habit without the War Dept(wife) finding out.

 

[TonyB]

big revolvers..to small revolvers..to autos...to plastic autos...to small plastic autos....someone please help me........

 

[Sean Smith]

Well, I guess we were bound to have a Tamara cannibalism topic eventually.

I've stuck to handguns, but have steadily progressed from quantity to quality.

 

[Beav]

started with semi-auto handguns, tried a revolver but it wasn't me. Next will be rifles and then training.

Probably a dumb question but what the heck is C&R????

 

[Daedalus]

Shotguns > rifles > rifles > rifles > rifles ... ... > rifles > rifles

Curio & Relic FFL. $30 for 3 years & you can have the firearms shipped right to your door.

Essentially anything that is 50 years or older is allowed (the relic part) and a variety of newer arms that the ATF had decided were odd enough that only a collector would want them (Curio).

Well worth the money to get one.

Revolvers -> Semi-Auto Handguns -> Lever Guns -> Shot Guns -> "Black Rifles" -> Battle Rifles ...... ammo, Ammo, AMMO

then,

Revolvers -> Semi-Auto Handguns -> Lever Guns -> Shot Guns -> "Black Rifles" -> Battle Rifles ...... ammo, Ammo, AMMO


then,

Revolvers -> Semi-Auto Handguns -> Lever Guns -> Shot Guns -> "Black Rifles" -> Battle Rifles ...... ammo, Ammo, AMMO

Revolvers -> Semi-Auto Handguns -> Lever Guns -> Shot Guns -> "Black Rifles" -> Battle Rifles ...... ammo, Ammo, AMMO

gotten progressively more old timey. Started with an AR interest, since I wanted a big scary gun for defense and figured the army knew what it was doing when it picked a rifle. Yeah, I'm a naiive kid sometimes.

Progressively lost interest in the more defensive stuff and got caught up in the history of the things. From semis to bolts and now if I could add anything for over the fireplace, it would prolly be an 1859 Sharps cavalry carbine, paper cartridges and all.

I figure at this rate I'll just have a collection of sticks and rocks in a year or two.

[Rockrivr1]

Started off with wheel guns, moved to semi auto handguns, then got my first shotgun and got into trap/skeet. My interests then moved to Highpower Service Rifle, which gave me my first AR-15. I've stayed with shooting Highpower occasionally, but have started an interest in bolt rifles. Started that with a C&R Mauser, moved to a nice FN sniper setup and am currently waiting for the 50 bmg big boy to top off the collection.

No telling where I'll go from there.

 

[Swamprabbit]

Used to be that I always wanted a different rifle/revolver/pistol. As I'm getting older, I tend to focus more on what I like. I like 1911s so I now own 3; I like ARs so I now own 3; get the picture?

 

[Black Snowman]

Clay birds -> Target semi-auto pistols -> exotic action -> EBR -> target rifle -> EBR with exotic action -> exotic actions and oddball calibers sprinkled with "Oooh, that's a good deal!"

 

[Atticus]

Finding the time and motivation to improve my shooting ability with the ones I already own; and channeling the resources to modify them as needed. However, my interests today lean more toward the traditional lever actions, bolt guns and revolvers.

 

[Ed]

Let me see Bolt action, Lever action Rifles, Semi auto Pistols,Revolvers,Rifles,BP,C&R Kinda funny. Lots of people like me have gone from the most recent back to older weapons. With Me I guess Its because they are more challenging, with the BP, and more powerful in Handguns. I also have gone to all wood instead of plastic on firearms. I son't own a single firearm that doesn't have a wood stock or grip. Anyone else like that?

Greeting's All-

Born with a revolver in my hand, I diverted to the fast
pace of the semi-auto's as a LEO in the 1980's; but
now its back to revolver's. It's a wild and whacky world
that we live in!

FootNote- Oh yes! I still favor the self-loader as a CCW
piece.

Best Wishes,
Ala Dan, N.R.A. Life Member

 

[QuarterBoreGunner]

Curiosity about Dad’s service revolver when he was still active duty> evil black guns (I blame Peter Kokalis and SOF total immersion during my formative years) > N frame revolvers > ¼ bore varmit type rifles (naturally) > benchrest .22 rifles.

 

[goon]

I always have an interest in C&Rs, but lately I have been more into the non-PC black rifles.
AK, AR-15, FAL, CETME-- They are the ones that I tend to look over every time I go into a shop.
I am planning a FAL purchase before too long.

 

[P95Carry]

Always had plenty of rifles . and still love em but .... the trend tho (from an active useage/interest POV) has been ever more toward shorter things!!

I am probably in Mike Irwin's camp .... always come back to the faves being wheel guns .... plus getting more interested now in hand rifles!

 

[Standing Wolf]

My interest is evolving from high class .22 caliber pistols to high class .22 caliber pistols. That may not seem to be much of a change, but they're at least getting more expensive.

 

[Stoney]

Colt blackpowder revolvers. Have five now and am bidding on number
six on GunBroker.

 

[cool45auto]

semi-auto pistols->shotguns->old battle rifles->semi-auto pistols again

 

[twoblink]

I see a lot of people moving from shiny and black modern stuff towards older stuff..

I've have personally found older stuff has longer lasting appeal too..

Then again, there are those Class 3 weapons.. Is it a "forbidden fruit" thing??

 

[Chris Rhines]

My big problem is that I keep adding new interests without losing the old ones.

UIT bullseye, NRA Conventional Pistol, CCW, IDPA, Steel, Highpower rifle, gunsmithing, on, and on, and on...
