What was your most recent firearm purchase or acquisition?

Some_Mook · April 2020

Continuing on the 'first' firearm theme, figured a 'most recent' thread might be fun (don't want to call it Last).

My most recent purchase in 2020 is a 1929 Mosin Negant 91/30 (ex-dragoon). I don't normally shoot center fire rifles in my back yard, but the weather is improving and I am too excited to try it out to wait for the local range to re-open.

Nice find!

Gene L · April 2020

This one, a Star BM 9. I replaced the grips, removed the magazine safety, and now it's easier to hold and has a really good trigger. Accurate and reliable so far. I paid the extra $20 for hand select and got a really nice one made in 76, but apparently not abused by a Spanish Policeman. Total $220 for pistol, $25 for the grips.

See you found your way back in Chris, and actually decided to post about guns for a change

Lonewolf-Peru · April 2020

A SIG P2022. Now, I am waiting for the quarentine to end, so the paperwork can continue (it will take about another 3 weeks at least) and finally, I will be able to pick it up and take it to the range

A S&W M&P II 5.56 AR-15.

I bought one of these:

I think I had consumed too many quarantinis. It should be showing up at my FFL tomorrow.

Now I just need to find a cheap 2” .38 barrel.

A S&W model 19-3 4" barrel.

Another guy on Gunboards Forums bought one, unless that's you. I believe he found a 2" barrel for his, don't know where.

Not me. But it could be my buddy that talked me into it. I found that Numrich has them, but they are $80-something and not shipping till the pandemic ends.

JKP · April 2020

S&W Victory .22; but that's likely to change soon!

eBay, $89 or best offer. You're welcome...

This 629.....it won't stay.
I did try it out though.

Earlier that week I did pick up this little colt 32 S&W long it will stay. I tried it too and was really impressed with its grouping capability.

Justsomedude · April 2020

Completely useless but I always wanted one. 410/45lc.

Have you fired it yet? It cannot be completely useless to have something you've always wanted, even if you never use it for anything other than as a conversation piece.

How long is the barrel? I thought that shotgun barrels had to be at least 18 inches long to be legal.

Justsomedude · April 2020

I have. It's not as bad as I thought it would be, even putting 3" loads in it. I bought larger grips for it which makes it even better to fire now too.

Henry H001 series .22S/L/LR

Classified as a pistol because its rifled. I think it only has about 2" of rifling though. The rest is chamber.

Elk creek · April 2020

The DS arms SA58 in 308win, an American made metric FAL. This is a carbine with a 16” barrel

RugerFan · April 2020

Ruger Single Six Convertible. Had no intentions of buying a gun when I walked in the lgs that day. It was too good of a deal, to me anyway, to pass up.

Jayhawker · April 2020

The last was a Uberti 1873 Winchester in .45 Colt....just prior to my move back to MI from KS...sold off an AR patrol rifle I no longer needed to pay for it....

It is considered a pistol and is legal as such. If a butt stock were added to it, it would then be in a classification requiring a tax stamp to be legal
