    Default My meager, yet well rounded collection

    I was organizing my safe the other day and thought I would take a picture of the firearms that I've acquired over the past 2 years.

    I started this collection with my Ruger 22/45 MKIII strictly target shooting and practiced for awhile before deciding to get my LTCF.
    Then I bought the Bersa .380 for CC purposes, followed by the Glock 17. I'm not going to bore you with the consecutive order of my purchases, but I feel it's a pretty well rounded collection.



    Here is the breakdown from left to right

    First Row:
    Stag Model 2
    Yugo M70 underfolder
    Norinco paratrooper SKS
    Ruger 10/22
    Remington 870 Express 7 round

    Second Row:
    Glock 17 w/ night sights
    Rock Island Armory GI 1911
    Ruger MKIII 22/45 with 1911 grip mod

    Third Row:
    Sig P6/P225
    Bersa thunder 380
    Kel Tec P3AT

    Nice "little" collection. I too have made several purchases in the past year.
    However, You can't call it a well-rounded colection without a wheel gun. Time for a revolver.
    Power always thinks...that it is doing God's service when it is violating all his laws.

    Looks good!

    I agree, you need a revolver and a long range tack driver yet! Then you'll be on the road!

    Thanks guys.
    I guess when I said meager, I meant "lower-priced" and not "top-shelf".
    I have a shooting buddy that has a similar collection to mine but instead of Stag he has Colt, instead of Rock Island he has Kimber etc.
    Although he has higher dollar items, he doesn't have more than a few mags for each gun and a under 1k for each caliber.

    As far as mags and ammo, I have more than I probably need, but not as much as I want.

    For awhile, I had my late uncles S&W model 10 (my cousin/his son now has it) and although I would like a long range rifle, (maybe Remington 700?) I can't justify it when I shoot mostly indoor. This may change soon, as I'm looking to join a club with an outdoor range.

    Thanks again for the compliments.

    Very nice collection. You have all your bases covered. I think long range guns are over rated. Your AR, AK and SKS will take care of any real "needs". You don't really need to make quarter sized groups at 600 yards.

    The Yugo has been great. It doesn't have the most comfortable cheek weld, but the underfolder is surprisingly solid. I had to put some locktite on a pin that kept creeping out after shooting 10-20 rounds and preventing the stock from closing once opened, but it hasn't budged in a few hundred rounds.

    Trust me you will learn to love that Yugo, I have 5 of them and just enjoy the hell out of them!

    Nice collection, you have one thing I have been looking to add to mine to, the 10/22
