[Fenway]

What do you consider to be your best firearms related purchase for 2010. Post pics, price and where you bought it if possible

 

[ReSSurrected]

My FNP 45. $550 from Phoenix Guns in Columbus. I know that price isn't stellar today, but it wasn't too bad back in January when I bought it.

A ticket to Appleseed was by far the best gun related purchase I made in 2010!

Heavy on the "related" and no pics (sorry)- but the best purchase I made this year was LASIK to improve my eyes to 20/20 and 20/15. I had a very successful hunting season, and can imagine a great many scenarios where enhanced vision without glasses is tactically very beneficial.

Out of the 7 firearms I have purchased this year I have had the most fun with the Colt Umarex M4 OPS.

 

[straight-shooter]

I purchased a CVA Accura camo muzzleloader which i'm very happy about. I'm really excited about the custom Ruger 10/22 I built but most of all I really have this Ruger LCR with CT growing on me for a great primary grab n go gun or a BUG to my primary carry.

Mossberg 590A1, picked up a new one for $400.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

Bought yet another Ruger 22/45 MkII for $250 off a private individual.

It's an inexpensive .22 that will last forever and now I own multiple copies.

 

[remymartin]

TAC-65 21st Century Firearms.

Got a few other goodies this year by doing some trading with some the fine folks here on INGO.

 

[SundayShooter]

Kind of a tie between two.

Handgun: FNP 45 Tactical 1450.00

Rifle: Savage 110 BA .300 Win Mag 1900.00

Both shoot like a dream. I actually think there might be hope for my shooting skills yet.

Sorry, no pics. A master of tech I am not. Both are worth a look though.

my rra ar...

the recoil feels like that of a red ryder...

and wow the fit and finish is amazing.

 

[dom1104]

STI Sentry 9mm. Bought it earlier in the year, shot thousands of rounds thru it, not a jam as of yet.

 

[Hoosier8]

Oh, so many!

I suppose the three that I have enjoyed the most are the Springfield 1873 trapdoor I bought off of an Ingo Member. The low cost stripped receiver etched with globe and anchor and the Delton rifle kit black friday special giving me a < $600 rifle I will give to my daughter, and two Winchester 94's NIB, one a Trapper 44 and the other a 9422 for what I think was a decent price. The 9422 is a real good looking rifle and I will not have the nerve to fire them. At some point in time, I plan on fixing up an office as my man cave with displays of my collection.

Bought it from Elk County Arms & Ammo in PA via gunbroker, and had our very own ARdysfunction receive it for me. Price was $535.00 + shipping, in addition to Brad's extremely reasonable fee.

Best accessory purchase this year was the Alabama Holsters kydex pocket rig that it rides in.

I think i did good on all of mine. Im having a hard time remembering when I got my 1911, it was either a year ago or approaching a year now. got a good deal on it. This year I got the ak, 30-06, glock 17 gen2, scopes, lights, and other things was able to make deals with all.

 

[littletommy]

I'm gonna have to go with my new Draco. $339 from Orion arms in Jeffersonville.

 

[darinb]

I bought a like new Ruger Speed Six fro $250 out the door. I never should have let that one get away. I also scored some good deals on some mags too.

 

[Rotor Talker]

Long Gun: Sig 522 OD green, exceptionally accurate and reliable

Hand Gun: Toss up. M&P 9 pro I picked up off Bubba on here, or GSG 1911

Sight: Trijicon RMR Tritium fiber optic from tactical shotgunner

A good year!

Happy New Year, all!
