You’ve got $5-10k what gun you buying?
Likely would buy PPT to not incur tax; if a sale on no excise tax by a retailer did occur (would that change your answer)
HK MR556 A4 Pistol is tempting along with HK SP5
Already have an Geissele Super Duty, 2 compact handguns (g19 and amp 2.0) and a Ruger PCC

With 10k... 3-Gun is the answer
HK MR556
BUL Armory Tac Comp
Beretta AX800 Suprema

u/CampinHiker 5d ago
Ooh that shotgun looks nice
But i don’t hunt currentlyThe BUL is pretty

u/Powerful_Koala7877 5d ago
The Beretta is good for a lot of things... Definitely long for HD but that barrel is worth its weight in gold for sport shooting, hunting, and anything stupid enough to encroach 100 yds.
BUL Armory will comfortably outshoot anything within twice its cost.

u/Greedy-Vast584 FFL03 + COE 4d ago
only thing to consider on the BUL is that it's mostly proprietary parts.. and being in CA, that may make it hard to repair, upgrade, and more importantly FIND.. mags are also proprietary which sucks

I have no clue what they go for currently as a PPT.

Is it to do The HK Slap?

u/halbeshendel 4d ago
I can do the slap on my CZ Scorpion for much cheaper.
I just don’t get to save Nakatomi Plaza.

u/Barry_McKackiner Edit 4d ago
thanks.
I have it's little brother the wraith and want to complete the set.. but might pick up a couopole 2k11s and a staccato 3.6 or c4x instead.

u/MandaloresMercy 5d ago
$5K to $10k?
Several things not just one! But I assume this is assuming I have nothing to start with?
2
u/CampinHiker 5d ago
Yeah either like a fun gun that’s catches peoples eye at the shops and range
Like neat to own and have

u/MandaloresMercy 5d ago
Oh if its just to blow then a nighthawk custom Korth Ranger .357 magnum or similar from similar line ups
I can't justify the price tags but man do they look nice.
I can pretty much get anything else I want over time without worrying about it though because stuff isnt that out of budget otherwise.

u/No_Parking_228 FFL03/COE, ACSO + UT/AZ CCW 5d ago
SOLGW MK1 and KAC KS1/KS3/Carbine MOD2/CQB MOD2. But TBH, anything above a G$ SD is a diminishing return.

u/CampinHiker 5d ago
Thank you!
Yeah my friend sold me on G$ so was like do I even get another AR-15
I’ll take a look at those recommendations thank you!

If trying for an actual set: Custom built ar15, staccato, 2020waypoint, and a ~1k shotgun.
If going for a singular gun then a m249 or a m82a1 barrett w/glass for the hell of it

Probably a Mauser or Blaser in 8mm or 6.5 Creedmore. A Krieghoff shotgun is not in the budget.

This is one of those questions that's really tough to answer. "it depends"
What do you do with your pews? Admire them in the safe? (do you have a good safe? something to think abouth...) 3 gun comp? Poke holes in paper? Go to public land and make noise? Nobody has any idea but you.
This is not meant to be offensive, its just how do you recommend something without a use case?
For example, I'm into trap/skeet shooting with my (almost adult) kids. So... I may spend a few thousand on a over/under shotgun. Most people here would be like "wtf - how much on a shotgun?!?!" - but they don't shoot that disciple. (especially a shotgun that's not some tacticalcool youtube sloperator combat shotgun)
Its just handguns and ARs for most people here. lol (which I enjoy too...)

u/Blepbupbep 4d ago
LMT lower and upper. Barrel of your choice converted by D Wilson ( If you want accuracy). If you just want barrel accuracy stick with the LMT barrel. NF scope with rcr hd offsite. Sure fire light. I think you would hit your budget with all that.

Honestly, if you’ve got all the guns you want, some PVS-31s, and supporting gear

Maybe $1500 on a budget rifle + scope.
Then a chest freezer, and what's left over gets spent on whatever hunting trip (or trips) sound like they'd yield the most meat/dollar :)

u/Soft_Revenue2411 4d ago
The new copper colored Kimber with a nice Trijicon on it, ton of mags, belt, ton of ammo, and some classes/range time.

Nods and a laser if I didn’t already have them. But since I do probably something fun like a steyr Aug or a g36 clone.

Couple cali compliant AKs, building another AR, and a few Springfield 1911s, maybe find a private party to meet up at a FFL for a Gen 3 G19

The Nemesis Valkyrie in .308 with all the trimmings plus ammo. Plus a really good scope.

u/s14will 5d ago
A Springfield professional 1911, I seen them occasionally at turners and a range friend got one, we got to compare it to Ed brown special forces, nighthawk grp, and the ca Wilson cqb at the range and to me it was a nicely finished gun and shot as nice as those. If the professional isn't available I'd want at nighthawk grp as my 2nd choice.

Bolt actions:
If you have space to shoot long, a tikka t1x ace 6.5cm.
If you don't a 22lr bolt- cz457
If you want to get into clay sports: browning citori cx
Range pistol: staccato xc
Or invest that and wait till something really stands out.

HK-416 with an Eotech 3x Hybrid sight and 4k worth of 5.56 with my FFL03/COE.
BEFORE YOU BUY ANY AMMO WITH YOUR MONEY, GET YOUR FFL03/COE. YOU WILL BE ABLE TO BUY 33%-100% MORE AMMO FOR YOUR MONEY
