Cheapskate/broke buyer! Suggestions?

Featured Replies

Just saying if I had a permit to burn and have very little money left like around $300 or lower what you GENTLEMEN recommend to buy.

 

I can't justify letting a permit expire. It's even hard to get a hold of my PD just drop off the application so I would rather not let it expire.

 

Open to anything.....

 

Ps. I'm asking this because I see myself getting in this situation in a few months.

Sounds like a nice .22 plinking pistol to me. Used Mark IIIs can be had for this easily.

Look for a used revo... Like model 10 S&W.

 

Or a cheap .22lr.

Get a used Ruger Mark II or 22/45 or a .38/.357 revolver of some kind.

.Anything made by Hi point, yes they are ugly as sin and cheaply made but they run well and are great for plinking.

 

.Nagant revolvers are great however the cost and avaibility of the ammo is not.

 

. CZ 82'S and the Polish Random P64's are great too 9x18 calibre are a good cheaper surplus option with better

choice and prices on ammo.

 

Classic arms has both, search under pistols and 9x18.

Buying either of them locally will put you over $325-$350.00 mark, NJ vendors are great.

the 82's and p64's are really starting to jump in price

Around the $250.00 to $280.00 mark which is higher but still a good gun for the cost.

Hodgie, I like how you are thinking. I was looking into hi point and nagant revolvers. I wouldn't mind the cz 82 or the polish p64.

 

But if I find a model 10 sw at around that price I would be all over that. Well any revolver that's not a 22, I would definitely be all over it.

just found your answer

I do really want a revolver in my collection, but I'm open to any suggestions.... I'm trying to move away from any .22 format since I have something planned to cover that already

clint, get the revolver. 300 dollar semi-auto = questionable reliability.

 

S&W Model 10= dependable, accurate, and an easy sale down the road in case you still don't like it.

I just have to find one. Or just sell me yours

jgsales, aimsurplus, gunbroker, galleryofguns, budsgunshop

 

 

Alowerlevel, you familiar with arcus or the daewoo?? Or does anybody have either one?

 

I ve shot both. The Daewoo was so long ago, but i remember it being a little bulky.

 

I lived in Bulgaria for a while and the Arcus its their knockoff Hi Power...shoots good.....needs a break in and the epoxy/whatever coating on the frame or slide wears off.......that s cosmetics.........only shot FMJ though....you might have to tweak it to shoot defense ammo.

Police trade-in S&W semi-auto, like the 5906. They're in that ballpark $$$-wise and are great pistols. They went out of style when polymer came along, but they're built like tanks.

I just won a gunbroker auction for a 5" 10-5 in nickel. Still a lot of good deals on the model 10's.

Johnp, damn let me say this in a nice way...that's one ugly booger, sorry not my style.

 

The model 10 is winning right now.

I asked casos about the model 10, but they said they don't carry any used pistols anymore. But I will keep looking on GB for a good deal.

That's one sweet pistol. I would love to get that but I haven't found one in my ballpark. Even the 5904 I would love to have. I'm a fan boy for S&W's

I have a buddy selling a s&w 3914dao in black with 3 mags but its probably more than you want to spend
