Calguns, help me spend $1000
Okay, so later this year, probably around late summer or early fall, I should find myself with an extra grand or so and nothing to spend it on 
So, that is where I need your help. I want to spend it on something gun related and I have narrowed it down to three options:
1. New handgun and CCW permit. I currently have only one handgun, a CZ 75B. It's a great handgun but I think it is too bulky to carry concealed. I would like to get something compact (probably either a CZ 2075 RAMI or a 1911 with a 3-4" barrel, but that is a subject for another topic) and use it to get my CCW. Now, a CCW permit is not something that I feel I really really need. If I got one I doubt I would carry more than once or twice a week (mainly when I travel to Stockton
). I don't feel I have to have one, but I would like the option.
2. AR-15 Carbine. I have one AR already in an SPR configuration. It's a great gun but a little on the heavy side. It's really most ideal for medium to long range shooting. I would like to get a light weight carbine for short to medium range shooting.
3. Optics upgrades. As mentioned earlier, I have an AR-15 in an SPR configuration. It currently has a Weaver Grand Slam Tactical 3-10x40 scope. I also have a Remington 700 SPS Varmint with a Wotac. These are both decent scopes, but not great, especially the Wotac. I would like to upgrade them both to Vortex Viper PST's: a 2.5-10 for my AR and a 4-16 for my R700. If I went with this option, I probably would also have enough money left over to pick up a stripped lower to get started on the previous option as well.
So Calguns, what do you guys think? I also have a reloading setup in the back of my mind (if AB962 would have gone into effect, I definitely would be getting a reloading setup), and maybe a couple other things, but these are the three options that I currently find the most tempting.
