What Calibers do you own?
Well I have been thinking of getting another AK. The only thing holding me back is having to get ammo for another caliber. Does anyone else find themselves trying to consolidate calibers? What all do you have? Mine are as followed
Pistol
22
9mm
40S&W
380
Rifle
5.56/223
22
270 (soon)
Shotgun
12 gauge
20 gauge
I would like to get rid of my 380 for another 9mm to get rid of the caliber down the road. I shoot alot of 9mm because of price. And carry a 40S&W.

Re: What Calibers do you own?
Pistol
.380
9mm
.357/.38sp
.40
.45acp
Rifle
.22lr
.303british
7.62x39
.45-70
Shotgun
12ga
And I find quite the opposite, one of the biggest draws I have to new guns is "Oh, I don't have a .308 yet"... The only one that I want to get rid of is the .303, and that's because it's just and oddity and not worth much. For the most part once it's mine it stays mine.

Re: What Calibers do you own?
I was thinking of consolidating calibers but right now I don't see the point in owning multiple rifles/pistols that do the same thing. Each caliber has it's advantages and disadvantages so I want a well rounded collection.
Right now I own:
1-5.56/.223 Rifle.
1-.22LR Rifle.
1-9mm Pistol.
By the end of the year I want to add:
1-7.62x39 Rifle.
1-7.62x25 Pistol.
1-.22LR Pistol.
1-Possibly a 7.62x54 Rifle, probably early next year if prices are still reasonable.
However I will note that I plan on stocking up on 1000 rounds of each ammunition and 8-10 magazines for each weapon before adding a new firearm in a different caliber to the collection.
You could always get one of those Isapore (Spelling?) Enfields chambered in 7.62 Nato (.308). They're supposed to be nice rifles.Last edited by LifeInPa; April 13th, 2012 at 04:13 PM.

Re: What Calibers do you own?
I own,
.22
.32 S&WLONG
.38special
9mm
12ga
16ga
I am going to get rid of the .32 and 16ga and focus on the others only. I want to consolidate and stock up. I will probably offer trades more than outright sales for the guns I am getting rid of.Some people just plain suck.
If you're gonna be dumb ya gotta be tough.

Re: What Calibers do you own?
Shotguns:
12 gauge
20 gauge
Handguns:
.45 ACP
9mm
.380
22lr
Rifles:
.308
7.62x39
22lr
I am only looking to add 5.56 to my rifle section because it is the most common AR chambering but is not really needed. The calibers I have are what is needed/wanted and most of my focus will be on guns in these calibers.
