    Best way to spend $3000 ???

    My wife is going to give me $3000 as a gift to spend on a gun/guns, optics etc.... I'm pretty torn on what to spend it on. I just rebuilt my Registered AR. Have a nice benelli M3 and a nice 300 Rem ultra mag Sendero.

    Anything is on the table. I was thinking possibly a Les Baer 1911, maybe a larger caliber/longer range bolt action, a .308 OLL build, new noveske + ACOG upper for my AW

    Any suggestions or new ideas would be great.

          Pistol SVI

          Rifle Tango 51

          You'll have to google both. Big bucks but both top of the line stuff.
          I move slow but I make up for it by shooting poorly.

            3 grand for one gun? You are one lucky SOB! Lots of options...but I'd go with the .308 AR myself, if I were in your shoes. You already have a nice 5.56 AR and a nice bolt-action in a caliber that will easily drop anything on this continent at range. The most expensive handgun I've ever owned was a Para P-14 IPSC, which was over a grand. I can't see spending more than that on a handgun since I don't shoot them competitively. But that's my $.02

                Get an M1A or a nice bolt-action long range build with some decent optics, and lots of ammo.

                  I would personally go for something a little more exotic, like a FN PS-90 or HK USC w/ UMP conversion...

                    buy all the ammo at walmart and sell it back to us at 30% increase! You could turn your $3,000 into $3,900 in one week!

                    if you want a 1911 skip the high end and go with a Kimber... I have a Kimber Warrior that eats everything. This will save you more money towards something else. If you already have a 1911, I say skip it all together and go with a boltie, ar10, optics or ammo.
