All of them were very satisfying, but I think my two best deals of the year were a Springfield Armory M6 stainless scout in .22 hornet over .410 for $250 and a Benelli M1 tactical for $725...
 
LNIB COLT 70 Series reproduction. It removes my itch with vintage Colt 1911's and high end semi custom Wilson, Les Bear, Nighthawk, STI, Ed Brown 1911's.

Made me feel at the moment i'm done with 1911's. I already have a blued colt 70 series. It is such a sweet 1911.

2010 will be all weapons training no weapons buy. I've been excited with the 4th generation Glock but after seing it, there was no major update for me to jump in.
 
H&K P2000sk (V3).

Surprisingly, as accurate as my P7's, but easier to cc, and offers two additional rounds, (or 5 when using the 13rd P2000 mag w/xgrip). :)

My Wife wants to take the class to get her Texas Concealed Handgun License and though she shoots her Ruger SP-101 very accurately stoked with .38 specials, I wanted her to qualify with a semi-auto so she could carry either. In Texas if you qualify with a revolver...that's all you are licensed to carry and it is listed right on the CHL. If, however, you qualify with a semi-auto, you can carry either, and I did not want her to be limited. We were in a gunstore I frequent and she saw and picked up a new .380. It happened to be the new Walther PK-380 and a smile immediately came to her face. She made the statement that it feels like the gun had been made specifically for her hand and it pointed naturally. Now shooting the little Ruger proves she is not recoil sensitive and what I had already read on this gun stated, that recoil was almost non-existant. I picked up the gun and gave it to her for Christmas and she was thrilled to say the least. I had found 5 boxes of .380 rounds and only have one left. I can see I had better start looking for a set of dies for my Dillon Square Deal B. I have kept the brass she has shot so we can afford her to shoot it. Here is the gun.

This year I purchased 7 and the top three are all from one maker. Sorry, it's true. How bout I post my top three and point out my best of those.

Best 1911's I have ever owned, in fact, maybe 10 ten all time on 2 of them.

First is a DW Cbob .45 with a set of Sarge's grips on
2nd is a DW Valor Gov .45 With a set of Wicked Grips on

and The third and favorite, my new full time carry, almost broke in and still tight, runs clean and fast. Love is a many splendorous thing

Rossi Rifle/Shotgun combo in .22/.410 with pink stock.

Not tactical or high end by any means, just my daughter's first gun. Seeing that makes it the best.
 
Definitely the S&W M&P 9c that I had to be talked into. First time I took it to the range and shot it, I hated it, but the second, third and fourth times its been an absolute joy to shoot. Wont be leaving the collection any time soon.

Ruger LCR in 38. Smooth trigger. Seems like I can empty five almost as fast as a semi. I was very surprised at the speed you can operate the gun.
 
Henry H001 lever action .22
I love shooting .22lr and with the cost of ammo Ive been shooting them more and more.
Out of all my long guns I like my leveractions the best so it made sense, Its also nice to have one that I dont need to reload for!
I would have said my Browning Buckmark but I got it after 09
