I was just thinking I buy a couple of guns every year. I know that is nothing to some of you guys out there . So I have a 45, 40 , 38 , 9 mm 22mag and 22 lr shot gun pc carbine in a 9 and Henry. I am thinking I want a Smith and Wesson 357 and a beretta px4 in a 9 than I think I will start buying only 22 lr like a beretta 22 maybe a ruger in 22 well that’s the plan for now

I'm good with firearms, on the other hand could use some help with my ammo supply.

Ammo supply is very important indeed in my opinion! A gun without bullets is just a blunt object to hit somebody with! A lot of people say that hording ammo isn't good for the ammo. That it has a shelf life. In my opinion this is true to an extent. It all depends on quality of brass, where and how it's stored, humidity, quality of ammo can and/or locker, so on and so on. If stored correctly. Nothing wrong with stock piling ammo at all in my opinion. I was shooting a box of some old 45-70 Gov ammo the other day that I pulled out of the "ol" ammo locker. 40 plus years old and all 20 cartridges fired as in they were just purchased! That's my two cents on ammo hording. Shoot fun shoot safe, and shoot straight.

I got a fair amount of ammo but that is why I am going to the 22 lr route after I get a couple guns off my list

Good call in my opinion. Fun to shoot! Fun and good to practice with, cheap ammo costs. If you do run out of ammo? There's a 95% chance that any of your friends and neighbors that own firearms, (witch just about all of mine do in this neck of the woods) has a.22LR in thier collection. Making it easy to borrow a round or two when times get tuff. I could go on and on about the .22LR! Heck, who couldn't? It's the .22LR! I have lots of 'em! Both guns and bullets.😁 Shoot fun, shoot safe and shoot straight!
 
I always say I have plenty of firearms.
Then I look into the glass cases and back racks of the gun shop:

Just got a new, to me, carbine in .357 magnum. So my future plans are a Smith model 19, and maybe an Emp or Ronin, or Ronin Emp. Which first depends if I keep the P365Xl. If I do kot keep the Sig then the Emp comes first.

Hey Sld let’s see a pic of your new toy
 
I'm pretty good right now with firearms. The Sig P322 interests me at some point. My future direction probably involves suppressor exploration/acquisition. Also waiting to see where this ATF braced pistol thing goes in August(?)....will I be creating a trust and doing Forms, etc.???
 
Just picked up a Saint Victor Pistol in .300 Blackout (9" Barrel) on Thursday. Wasn't planning on getting anything in another caliber for awhile but I couldn't pass this up due to the price and my desire for an AR Pistol.

Property values are skyrocketing here and thus our taxes too have skyrocketed, coupled with some unexpected home expenses I think this will be the last new firearm purchase for about a year or so. I'm in a good place in terms of wants/needs at the moment so I feel I can make peace with my desires for a year.

I've got a Concealed Carry and a Full Size pistol for both 9mm and .45 ACP, one of which is a 1911 and there is a Legion in there as well. I've got a fun little Semi Auto .22lr pistol to round that out along with a Bolt Action .22lr.

I've got my M1A incase I need to reach out and touch something and I am thinking I will try my hand at hunting this deer season with how expensive everything is getting, a freezer full of meat sounds like a good idea. With my recent purchase of the new First Focal Plane Strike Eagle 1-8x from Vortex that completes my AR-15 set up. Just waiting for that goddamn suppressor to get out of ATF jail.

The AR Pistol in a fun caliber that can serve in a multi-purpose role was really the icing on the cake in terms of what I felt was "Needed" for me at the moment. Then there is the good old 12 GA Pump because well... Do I need a reason really? lol.

It's definitely not as many as most of you guys, but I bought my first Firearm in January of 2021 and it's been a $20,000 investment to date since. I think i'm doing good haha.

Long story short, I'm happy with what i've got for a bunch of roles/scenarios. I'm going to focus more on ammo, and getting alot more training under my belt while catching up and putting some money away.

More expensive and finer items will have to wait. I've had my eyes on a Beretta 92x Performance and Staccato P but those are on hold for now.
 
Asking the wrong dude here. I sold like 20 guns between November and Feb, bought 8 or 9 more while waiting on the check to arrive… two for one upgrades (poly for steel).

You need at least one of every platform for every person in your house, unless it’s a Henry, then you need 2 or 3 for every person in your house. Revolvers, you need 2 for each hand for each person in your house. They hold less bullets so you need more of them 😁.

You need guns for at least 30 different cartridges in case the Rona comes back or apocalypse happens and ammo is hard to find. That way you can trade the neighbors dog for any common caliber and still be able to use it.

Happy hunting…
