Well not my purchase. But I just got engaged and the fiancee wants to buy me a new toy as a gift! It will hold sentimental value so I want something I know that I want to keep around forever. Limited it down to a few choices but can't decide beyond that. Below are the reasons I'm considering those in the poll. As a note, large caliber handguns, AR's, and center fire bolt guns I tend to look at as fun trade fodder after a few uses. If you select other post something you consider a must have.
- Ruger Single Six .22 - currently topping the list. Classic and you cant have too many .22's
- S&W 642 airweight - Need a good CCW and this seems like a time tested design. Only problem is I dont have a cc permit yet and I know when I get it I'll be trying pretty much any and everything under the sun until I figure out exactly what I'll carry. But hey, it's a 642. Perfect BUG.
- Marlin (or Winchester) 30-30 - Great all around gun and love the idea of a lever action in my collection.
- Henry Lever .22 - Just sweet
