If you had $2,500 and an empty safe what would you fill it with. Don't include HST, ammo, or glass - firearms only.
Here's my list:
Remington 870 Express 12 Gauge - $500
Sako 85 Finnlight .270 win - $1650
Savage 93R17 BVSS 17 HMR - $350

That's actually a very good list, pretty much the way I would go except I really wouldn't go Brand specific, I like to buy the best deal on a gun/price has always been my way of doing things. Most of my gun safe is filled with FREE guns :)
But I agree.....a .22......a 12 ga shot gun....a .3+ (30-06/.308/.303)....would be the basic arsenal for anyone.
I would, and have, added a Muzzle Loader to that ...as I prefer that for hunting now.
Good choices Species !!
Tax return,,Dodge coins? lol..Looks like a fun and practical list.I would change the 870 for a BPS,but that's just me.
1. Marlin lever 45-70 (650.00) Fun Gun
2. Crocket .32 BP (400.00)
3. Heavy barrel, .338 lapua (the rest of $$)
Rem 870/cantilever slug barrel, 26" bird barrel, 20" threaded barrel/turkey choke 750.00. Thompson Encore 50cal /270 and 308 barrel 1200.00 . 10-22 rifle 350.00 300.00 worth of ammo.
Sad but true Line.
A .223 and a .338 Lapua. That may stretch that $2,500 a bit but I suppose I could not be too picky about brands and maybe try to find something used - but that would kind of defeat the purpose of those two calibers.
And sxp.. A 22 semi.. SKS.. 270 22-250.. Lever action.. An over under.. A 22 bolt / break action for kids. Ummm.. I mag of hut my 2500..,I'm not worried about brands.. I want something that will make the bullet go. "Bang" when I pull the trigger..
I'd expect to wind up with about a dozen carefully chosen guns of various sizes. One of which would be a Marlin 38-55 or 45-70. A 243,a 22, a shotgun and a handful of handguns.
Stoeger M3500 12ga semi in camo - 800$
Benelli R1 in .300WSM - 1600$
Ruger 10/22 - 250$
my math is a little off but thats my list haha
LC Smith 16ga SxS! And that would pretty much blow my budget lol
norinco m4 carbine 700$
benalli supernova(camo) 800$
winchester 1885 high wall -1500$
Quite possibly but it just ain't in the budget at the moment :(
I could fill a safe for $2500 if talking used guns
2,500 silver dollars.

Sako A7 .308
