I can't help myself. I have Glocks, Berettas,HK's, S&W, etc. All mid range less than $1,000.00. So, I'm looking for something real special

Any suggestions?
Isn't AMERICA a great country!
 
How about a P7M13, Sig 210-6 or custom hi-power in 9; Rock River, Wilson, Baer or one of the fine smiths on these boards for .45. Fred Craig also makes some interesting customs on Caspian frames-no website but he got me a brochure in the mail in 3 days and he answers his own phone. You could also redo one of your Glocks with a Bar Sto or Jarvis barrel, Caspian slide, MMC tritium adjustables and a "hand job".

If you go the rifle route, you could alsmost get a loaded Steyr for 2K, you could get a fully decked out AR-match barrel, good optics, sf Millennium light, etc.

Good luck deciding,

Go for a Steyr Scout for a rifle.

For a pistol, well if you have many that work well for you, how about a week at Gunsight (orange, that is.)
 
If you do't have any rifles get one or two good ones.
If you want another pistol get a SIG P210 (the "Rools-Royce" of automatic pistols) and sneer at other less fortuneate shooters at the range.
 
A custom 1911. Everything you want and nothing more.

or

A custom rifle. Actually, I would get a Wichester M70 Classic and send it to a smith for 300-500 dollars worth of work. You can keep the change.

A nice 1911!!!! Give Steve Clark a shout. he'll build you one SERIOUS 1911. His website is Steve Clark Custom

If you want a rifle, go with a custom AR with a Compass Lake Engineering upper. Get the Kreiger stainless barrel option. Then get a Bushmaster DCM lower. After that, replace the Bushy's trigger with a Jewell trigger. Compass Lake's website is www.compasslake.com

Get a pre-ban sport utility rifle and lots of magazines.

Barring that, get an automag or a true exotic in a rifle caliber like a 6mm/223 on an x-p 100 and try your hand at long range handgunning.

Or maybe a nice antique?

Get a weekend in Reno and take the cash to the craps table. See if you can make it $4,000...

If you've already got SIGs, H&Ks, and the rest, you don't need to spend more than that on a single gun.

Unless it's a Springfield "Bureau Model" 1911...

Triggers exist to be pulled... again and again.
 
If you are looking for a rifle check out the Blaser imported by Sig. You should be able to get one with the synthetic stock for $2000. Check out the Blaser Sniper Rifle. If you really want a good 1911 style semi-auto you can check out the guns produced by STI. Save a little more and you can get a Steyr Scout Rifle. For revolvers you can't go wrong with one from Freedom Arms.
 
Maybe that new Bushmaster that is sitting on the counter at my favorite gun emporium

Any 2 of your favorite Glocks, and enough ammo and accessories to keep you tinkering 'till fall. :-)

One more idea - how about a rare Luger? A Luger you could shoot would be neat, and would be a great heirloom to pass on.

I love it when I have $2000 to blow. It happens every once in a while.

You could spend it wisely on something like ammo to practice or training to get better...but, nahhh, just blow it on a fun toy!

I would get a really nice custom 1911.
An Ed Brown Bobtail comes to mind, or a Brian Bilby custom (www.1911custom.com)

Or, for a rifle I would get a SR-25 "Stoner" from Knight's Manufacturing in Florida. It's a .308 Sport Utility semi auto rifle that can drive 1/2 moa out to any range you want. It is the most accurate production semi auto .308 short of a $10,000 HK PSG-1. Throw the optics of your choice on there and you can make that rifle do anything you want from CQB to super long range. I could not be happier with mine. There is no other rifle that I will really ever need.
 
My choice.
FN FAL, pre ban specs, 20 mags, 10,000 rounds Malaysian.
And teach a fence sitter to shoot.

Nikita Khrushchev!." We cannot expect the Americans to jump from capitalism to communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving Americans small doses of socialism, until they suddenly awake to find they have communism."
 
I second the FAL purchase.

Then again, if Regis Philbin were to give me a million dollars, I could justify the purchase of a handgun costing $2,000.

If you would like, I could have my father the jeweler inlay one of your Glocks with some diamonds, rubies, saphires whatever. Then and only then would you have a handgun worth it's $2,000 price tag !

Its all about quantity, guys. Jeesh.

I suggest 40 Jennings J-22 ghetto specials. if you buy bulk, you can probably get enough .22 LR ammo to wear out all 40.

Now THAT is a purchase.
