    Too many toys for a 21 yr old? :D

    I really enjoy my toys but do I have enough at 21? I'm thinking I'm missing a 1911A1 and a GSG-5. That should sate me till summer gets me the cash for an AICS remy 700.

    I'm sure glad I learned to build most of them myself. Its amazing how much you save when you price hunt on a college budget! BTW, the extra receiver is going to be a spikes .22.



    Some new furniture arrived for my 9mm, I figure I'll show off



    On a side note, It really is truly worth it to buy the genuine optics instead of clones! I highly recommend the trijicon reflex for those that hate buying batteries!

      Never too many toys! A 1911 and a glock or 2 wouldn't hurt. The 700 AICS will be a nice addition as well. Then maybe a 308 AR, then maybe...it never stops!

        The 9mm is a very economical way of firing an AR. Its a real blast. You can fire nice quality brass ammo and the bill will still be cheaper than firing the cheapo steel 7.62x39 stuff. However, even 9mm is getting pricey so thats why I'm going to do a spikes build so i can have a super econ AR. lol.

        My .223 ARs rarely get shot, which really sucks. Ammo is too expensive at the moment. lol. I started building ARs when I could find tons of winchester 5.56 for $4 a box at K-Mart. Its hard to find nice quality brass ammo for less than $8-10 per box. My match SPR has only seen 40 rounds of ammo. Federal gold is currently out of my budget @ $30 per box. lol.

          You must still be single.
          I'm only smiling at you while you talk to me because it's hilarious that you really think I give a crap about you.

          As I've gotten older I thought I was gaining patience, then I realized I simply don't give a crap.

Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."

                        Wow, thats quite the collection you got there. Im lovin the AR precision build. I think that is close to what im aiming for my next build. Im slowly buildin up my collection, but the college budget slows things down. Also savin for a Springfield 1911a1 loaded and maybe a sig 226 when I finally turn 21 in a few months... The wait is just killin me! Anyways, nice collection. Keep it growin!

                              Nice collection! Especially like the black rifles. My collection's like yours, in that I have a lot of long guns and few handguns. One of the signs of a young collector, I suppose.

                              I am 21 as well, have around the same as you do.



                              As long as you're not going into too much debt over it, you can never have enough.
