Which firearm would you impulse buy?

[HotRod61]

Smith & Wesson 44 mag laser etched blue steel 5 inch barrel because I have one like it in stainless

 

[bradsteen]

FN FS2000
HK SL8 converted to an XM8
PTR91 16" w/ folding stock
HK P7 (any model in 9mm)
...and a few dozen more...

 

[Richo877]

No written tag or storefront, but... Recently on impulse...

Do I really need another one? No... but do I have enough? Also no... I mean, c'mon $380 for complete rifle and free shipping...

 

[Nosferatu]

The Colt Delta Gold Cup 10mm I had to sell 20 years ago.

You gotta know a deal when you see one

I've been keeping my eyes open for a rifle in .243. Not just any rifle, there are a few brands that I'm interested in. So I haven't been in a hurry, But I might walk into a shop/store tomorrow and find just what I want. That might evolve into an impulse purchase but it would have some thought behind it.

 

[FALshot]

Probably a Browning 9mm...

I'm a big fan of High-Powers. They'll be with me to the end,...

 

[nammac]

Maybe a '27 Thompson with 100 round drum and violin case. I've always enjoyed classical music…

 

[Hemlock]

I wish I had my HiPower back from 1980, but if I saw an original 44 Auto Mag, I think I'd be doing a quick draw on my wallet.
I missed one at a long gone gun shop here in Vancouver many years ago. But a safe queen Remington 1100 16 gauge did go home with me that day.

 

[boattail]

Last March Colt python at a feed store. Bought it. It was a special order that got backed out on. Store usually sold cheaper guns. It stuck out like a sore thumb.

 

[USMC1911]

Last impulse gun was an AR in 300WM. If it was in front of me probably a SCAR 17 or 20s. 20s would have to be in 6.5 CM. Maybe an original Colt Anaconda, nickle with 8" barrel.

 

[WeaponizedMRE]

Something that is in current production or one that I would like to be in production at some level?

If its the second, an HK USP in 10mm would have me making friction burns on my ID to get the 4473 started. If the former, a CZ 457 At One or possibly a S&W TRR8.

 

[MikeInOr]

An Egyptian Rasheed (7.62x39)



I already have a Ljungman AG-42 and Egyptian Hakim. I would like to have their little brother.

A Finnish Lahti


A Nambu

I have a whole list that I'm always on the lookout for, but purely "impulse"? As in... I don't need it, aren't looking for one, but if it wacked me upside the head I wouldn't be able to exercise any self control?

I'm a real sucker for beautiful wood grains and tones.. or bluing rainbows/patterns/patinas. A well kept Win 94 or an 870 mariner with atypically beautiful features is like bacon to me. A real gorgeous Sharps, Springfield trapdoor, Colt SAA's or an 1860... Uhhhh boy!

I don't date exclusively though. My last impulse was the most beautiful Virginia dragoon 44mag.
Didn't want it, didn't need it, but couldn't walk away from it.

 

[chefbq]

Uncut, pre-war Win 70s with original butt plates. My drug of choice.

 

[Certaindeaf]

...Say you walked into a gun shop and there it was, with the little handwritten tag dangling off it. You hadn't planned on spending the money, but you're not gonna leave the shop without it!

What did you buy?

Assume it's a decent deal. Maybe 10-15% below market.

I always trade the milk cow for some magic beans.

 

[arakboss]

Pretty much any complete AR10 under $300.

Pretty much any complete AR15 under
under $175.

 

[tdemore1743x]

Since I'm in WA, anything with a pistol grip and detachable magazine

 

[P7M13]

Except for my builds, every gun I own was an impulse purchase.
