Anybody bought a gun in 2023?

[binkerton]

No plans for buying this year. My C&R expires in February and then I plan on starting to thin the herd.

...and I'll be stalking your posts this year.

Grabbed a TX22 on saturday. I see why people love 'em. Great shooting pistol!

I'm thinking of selling mine. I didn't care for it. Felt more like a toy gun to me. I prefer my Buckmark.

ME! ME! ME!

Of course the correct response is, "All of them."

Or one more

I am getting the urge to buy something, not sure what to get though.
I don’t really need anything. I need to sell more than buy. But you know….

Nothing 'new' purchased, but have spent a few $$ upgrading a few handguns with tritium night sights, magazine 'pinky' extensions, etc.

Nothing yet and I don't plan on buying any firearms in 2023.

Might consider a trade or a sale at some point.

I haven't bought a gun all year.

 

[MikeHoncho]

Nothing yet, not real happy about it. Trying to knock out some piddly debts before I buy more stuff I don't need.

January's gun was a backup AK-74. Rolled the dice and bought a Riley Defense. So far, 350 rounds without problem. Likes DDR mags and Magpul, no issues.

Thinking ALG trigger and Midwest mount and a dot, maybe those M68 clones?

I think GWACS is full of crap and I hope they lose. Russell/KE Arms makes a solid product, and Russell in particular has been involved w/ the Cav-15/KP15 product line for ages. They (Cav) sold the molds for the Cav-15 MKII when I was working there, so while the KP15 is related, it’s its own thing.

And they’re solid lowers, to boot! They don’t fit everyone’s needs, but if you want a lightweight, durable lower and can handle a fixed A1-length stock, they’re hard to overlook. They used to have videos of a Cav-15 built rifle getting run over multiple times and it still ran flawlessly.

A dispositive motion should end GWACS less than optimal litigation.

Of course! Why not start the New Year with a firearm purchase. I got a S&W Model 14-2 6" .38 special K Frame Target Revolver.

I've been debating between Hellcat Pro (waiting for a thumb-safety model), and a P365XL w/MS. I have decided on the P365XL, and went to Midwest before work to today to get it. Sold out! Damn. Soon, very soon.
It's not really a gun, but I just ordered a Wilson Combat P365XL grip module. May just pass on the XL after I get that installed on the P365.

Not yet, but hope to get my Shield 2.0 40 PC real soon

Shopped local, in the INGO classifieds was a Ruger MK IV Hunter that needed rescued. Since I had accumulated some cash from my Birthday and Xmas I jump right on it. Best part was meeting a member who I had never dealt with and it was a pleasure to meet AndreusMaximus from Bloomington.

Thanks, it was a real pleasure for me, too!

Waiting for my 15 month free interest credit card to show up first!

Didn't buy any yet but I'm debating selling a 1911. The problem is I have more in mags and ammo than the pistol but my brother in law may be interested in all of it. I think everyone should have a 1911 but I just never shoot it and would like a higher quality one someday. Decisions, decisions...

I had another boating acident while trying to cross the lake with a gun safe...

I have a 1911. Nothing special but I really like it and won't sell it. I'm not shooting it since I have made the switch to red dots and so far I can't bring myself to put a red dot on it.

I get it out when I take folks to the range. It seems like everyone enjoys shooting them.
