I'd like: an H&R or other single shot in 7.62x39 - just to see how accurate I could be with that round, and to use up old ammo.
My kid(s) would like: a .38 revolver for my leaving-the-nest kid
a .22 LR RUGER 96/22 for my 10 year old (so I can keep MINE!)
a .223 coyote gun (or AR!) for my middle daughter
a .50 BMG Barrett for my 13 yo son (me too!)
My sensible side says: just buy ammo and primers
My dramatic side says: Obama and Hillary will win as Pres and VP, so better stock up on whatever they will ban before they declare martial law.
My historic side says: look for an old .32-20
My accountant side says: you didn't make enough money last year to buy a used BB gun.
My Bill Gates side says: get them all...!
Where's Bill (or his wallet) when you need him...
