You know you want it.

You've had your eye on it for a while now. You've been asking around about it - friends, shooting partners, gun store employees. You've been reading about it, researching it, comparing it to similar guns. You've almost decided to get it . . .

What will YOUR next gun be?
 
.22 handgun, dont know if it will be a revolver or a semiauto, and I have no idea what model yet (as MD's handgun lock law limit my choices).

Hmmm

It's either going to be this .30-06 J.C. Higgins I've had my eye on, or some kind of ultra-light snubbie in .32 H&R magnum.
 
Damn! It's a hard list to prioritize!:rolleyes:

Next I think will be Kel-Tec P32 .... been thinkin about that for ages.... then I hope to pick up a bolt .223 ..... something more accurate than the Mini!! Then ................................. :p

Kharn - I recently got a Single Six stainless for .22lr .. comes with .22 mag cyl ..... very satisfied with that .... worthy of your consideration methinks.
 
Most likely gonna be a Springfield SS Loaded. A 4' Springfield XD 9mm is a possibility too, depending on finances. I've had my eye on a NAA 22mag mini revolver too just for the fun factor.

Final answer: Whatever I can get a good deal on at the next gun show.
 
P95:
The problem is MD's lock law, any gun made after 1/1/03 has to have an integral lock. I've got my eye on a few models that I could buy used, but I'll have to talk to the local dealers to see if they have any of them. Ruger 22/45, Ruger MkII, Browning Buckmark all with 5.5" barrels are the main semiautos, Taurus M94 is the main revolver I'm looking at (but I might consider their new .22 fullsize pistol if it comes out soon).

Skunk, you should consider a move to DFW!:D

Anyway, my next gun will be either a DSA FAL or an AR10A4-T. Before someone starts trying to tell me which is better, I'm getting them both, so save your breath. :D When I win the lottery :rolleyes: I'm going to send the AR10 to Stuart Wilson of www.shooterready.com and make a match rifle out of it. The DSA will be my battle rifle. I'll need an M1A or two to round out my selection of .308 rifles.

I'm also in the market for one of those Olyarms .223 Plinkers to test out as a truck gun.

Oh yeah, and a Kimber Stainless II.
 
Probably a Ruger P95 for a house gun and cheaper ammo than my .45

Then maybe a P-32 for always pocket carry. I'm waiting to see on the P-3AT. Maybe their release will cause a flood of used P-32s :D

Finally, a 22 revolver, semi-auto, and rifle for a complete "beginner's set".

After that I might get some long guns so I don't have to borrow one every time I go hunting ;)

either a......

1911 type, probably Kimber or SA or Wilson or :confused:

OR

AR type, probably Rock River

OR

.22 for the wifey
 
Next new handgun: Beretta 92FS Brigadier in Inox
Next used handgun: Ruger GP-100 4" .357mag
Next rifle: CMP 1903 Springfield Bolt
Next carbine: Beretta Storm thinga-ma-jig in 9mm.
 
I want a Browning Hi-Power in .40S&W, or no....how about CZ-75 in .40S&W, but maybe the Ruger Bisley Single Six, then again there is the S&W M24 with a 5" barrel, I gotta have a Colt Diamondback in a 6" .22lr, but sure would like the Ruger 77/22 in .22 Hornet. I can't make up my mind, here lately I have looked at the SA XD in .40 or .357sig and I don't even like polymer guns. :confused:
 
Since I ran acros that Hungarian M44 a couple of weeks ago, I'm nearly content. Notice the use of the word 'nearly'. Strong possibilities for the next firearm could be a Walther P22 or a Browning Buckmark. Longarms- the next 'planned' acquisition is to be a FAL, probably a parts kit as I'm of the John Muir frame of mind; 'Come to kindly terms with your (small donkey) for it bears you' from "How to Keep Your Volkswagen Alive: A Manual of Step-by-Step Procedures for the Compleat Idiot ". Putting something together (mostly) by onesself is an excellent means to understanding it.

...unless something that strikes my fancy croses my path first, then all bets are off.

Rabbit.
 
AR probably a A2 20" barrel for similarity to m16a1 I carried in USMC with a nice 16" upper for play

S&W 58 gotta be P&R I think they were made so.

BHP
S&W 39

Ruger Super Blackhawk Hunter in 45 Colt..... I can dream can't I!

something in 22 hornet

Marlin 1894 in 45 Colt or 357

Something in 45/70
 
My next 'not cheap' gun will more than likely be a Springfield Compact.

I also want to get either a Tikka (preferably) or a CZ550 (a very nice second choice) in 6.5x55 and something like the Elite 1.5-6x36 scope.

Others in the hopefully not-too-distant future include a lighter weight 44 magnum lever gun, a Dan Wesson 41 Magnum and one of the new Ruger Super Blackhawk Hunters with the Bisley grip. I'd love it if they would come out with one in 41 Magnum... I heard they did a limited run of the regular gripped Hunters in 41 Magnum that might fill both slots but I really want that Bisley grip.
 
Can't say for sure on my next one, but I do have a wish list that I try to fill in order of opportunity.
Another Finn M-39.
A CZ-83.
Possibly the S&W M-28 I have been eyeing up.
A Marlin Papoose.
A .22 auto pistol.
Maybe a CZ RAMI when they become available.
Maybe a P-32.
But I still need to get some more ammo and mags for my other guns, and do a little custom work on my 1911.
