Its tax season.. (firearm related)
I usually have extra withheld in Federal taxes to have nice winfall for the next tax return.
This year I figure I'll have about $1000 to spend on goodies. I want about 3 pieces.
1. another H&R Buffalo Classic for a project
2. another CCW piece duty/full sized
3. another BUG.
#1 takes about $350 right off the budget right away. ..leaving me about $650 for carry pieces, accessories and holsters.
With #2, I'm stuck with choosing between a hi-cap 1911(RIA/Armscor) or some techno piece(Glock, XD, etc) 45acp is a requirement, nothing less will do for me.
#3, I'm really open to anything from another derringer to a micro automatic. 32acp to 45/70(American Derringer - drools)
I gave my BUG to my best friend whom which just seen the "light", so I'm out of a deep concealment/New York Reload.
Suggestions?
I'm not against picking up a used piece to help keep the budget in order. Bear in mind the need to have funds too for ammo and holsters. ...plus enuff room for a chamber reamer for the new Buffalo Classic.

Re: Its tax season.. (firearm related)
for the BUG, I love my Kel-Tec .32acp. My preferred carry weapon is my Glock 19c (the ported model). But when conditions keep me from carrying the glock, i feel really confident with my kel tec.

Instead of letting Uncle Sam hold your money interest free, next year have them take less and put the extra in a Money Market account. At the end you will have more in your pocket to spend.
Our of the choices given I think the XD-45 or Taurus 1911 would give you the most bang for the buck.

Very creative artwork, Delta!
I like tax season. It means gun money! (That, or paying off some bills). I'd rather spend it on guns.Guns are like shoes...a woman should have one in every caliber.
I'm armed and menopausal...Excuse me, did you have something to say?

Re: Its tax season.. (firearm related)
Look on Gunbroker....I bought mine for $450, plus $20 shipping, plus $20 transfer. No sales tax remember.... So you will pay for the transfer but they even out. I talked to my dealer first, but his dealer price, wasn't even as good as the Gunbroker price.
XD45 on Gunbroker $475
I just checked the guy I bought from doesn't have anymore up. He might have been losing money at that price.
Are the Glocks Gen2? or Gen3?
If you really want a Glock, look at CDNN as they have refurbs at reallllly good prices. You'll want to D/L their latest brochure as they don't have guns prices on the site or at least I've never found them.
I wouldn't buy a gun off a dealer, mine only does transfers. You can get a much better price than any dealer will offer if you look around the internets.
I really can't find much of a difference between my XD and my friends Glocks as they are basically the same. I like the trigger pull though, it's a little more than a Glock but smoother. I do like the grip safety though, makes me feel a little more secure carrying a round chambered.Last edited by KeithPA; February 7th, 2007 at 04:33 PM.
