Hoping that prices stay the same, or go down, until I have some excess spending money. That might be 2032.
It has changed from time to time. I was really hot for the Taurus Judge for awhile. Now, not so much, as my "living" has changed a little and travel to the point where I don't think it would be as useful.
At this point, I'm interested in...
◘ Glock 19. Just a staple that I really would like to have. I like 9mm, have one Smith & Wesson 39-2 that I like to shoot, but don't really want as a true self-defense weapon. More on that in a minute. 3rd generation would be fine for me; I like the angle of the grip as opposed to what everybody else in the world makes, and what Glock is trying to "fix" with later weapons.
◘ 20 gauge pump shotgun with a pistol grip. At home, self-defense, and something my wife might use if needed. Found a Stevens model that GunsAmerica wrote an article on that I really liked, for $264 and the price on that was great.
◘ I have mentioned that I want a .22 rifle from time to time--shouldn't everybody own one of these? I have, for months, said I wanted a bolt action, maybe something that would take a 7-shot magazine. Not an automatic, because I intend to use some subsonic ammunition in it that won't cycle in an automatic, so I have a peculiar use for it. Probably ought to be the first purchase I make.
◘ Not a gun, but I mentioned above that I like the Smith & Wesson 39-2. I do need to get it fitted with a laser sight, and potentially have my wife get used to that gun, although I'm not sure that I like it. I like the KISS principle on the defense weapons, and the safety I like is just an internal safety, and not an external one, so that there are fewer things to remember when the need arises to use the weapon. That goes back to the Glock 19, which I think my wife could use better than the S&W 39-2, although it is a sweet shooting pistol.
