I swear I am done this time!!!

[thinckley]

Oh, I never said I was done buying guns, just done with my OM Collection.

Since starting this thread, I have added:

Saving up my pennies now for an RPR in .300 PRC. We'll be closing on 160 acres in Montana by the end of this month, starting construction next spring, so the gun room is about 2 years out.

Nice guns,, and at least 2 of them are Rugers. But I still prefer the OM's! You got a long way to go.

The Glock I got to pair with the LC. I have 10 13 round mags and 5 26 round mags for the ultimate SHTF go-bag.

I've been kind of, semi-seriously, watching for a Hawkeye, but still want to get that RPR. Between gun, optics, and accessories I'm going to be into it about $3-$4k.

The property we are buying will allow for up to 700 yards safe shooting.

I won't be using paper targets, it'd take me half an hour just to drive from the shooting bench on the right side to the target area on the left side, but it will be fun to bang gongs from my front yard.

Glock 41 in .45ACP? I got one in 2016, thinking Hillary was going to win. I didn't think I'd like it, being polymer and not pretty, but I do. Reliable and now I have the standard mags which are now banned here.

You get a side by side to do "chores" around the property, then there is no walking out to the targets.....

What part of Big Sky?

Are you talking about the Hawkeye handgun,, or the rifle?

Cool.
Had lunch there a couple years ago on my way home from Prairie county. Also, have a friend with inlaws at Gold Greek.
Very nice part of the Big Sky, not many people!!

Cheers,

We had seriously thought about MT a couple years back. Found a home but timing was off. We were looking by Stevensville. I remember a couple nice gun shops in that area…

 

[thinckley]

We have family in Victor, so are quite familiar with Stevensville. There is one gun shop in the bitterroot valley that is currently on my naughty list. A couple of years ago, at my brother-in-law's urging, they sold my 80-year-old mother-in-law an LCR in 22mag. She can't even pull the damn trigger. On top of that, she traded in a 1972 Mk1 and only got a couple hundred for it.

I happened to stop in at a new shop on Saturday, Off the Grid Montana. They had an unissued, Rock Island Armory 1903 from 1918 with serial number 290XXX. This gun looked brand new and had the price tag to match ($1800). Unfortunately, it has zero inspection marks, so trying to decide if it is worth the money.

On a side note. I'll be posting an ANIB, never fired, LCR in the classifieds in the next day or two.

Famous last words. Nice collection, Sir! Congratulations on your "latest" acquisition!

 

[Fox Mike]

Then you can start to acquire one for every year of production.

Thanks to @rando8586 I finally have the crowning jewel and last piece I needed to finish my OM BH, SBH, SS collection. I was able to get this stunner with the absolute best looking factory wood I have ever seen:
