Anybody bought a gun in 2023?

[doddg]

Bought two more Buckmarks in 2023 that became available here, adding to the two I bought in 11.2022 & 7.2021.

- 02-2023 Browning Buckmark Blue Pro Target, 5.5" Bull Barrel w/red dot & Tandemkross "Gearbox," lighter trigger, spring with "case" for easy fitment & Volquartsen extractor (w/extra). (INGO)
- 01-2023 Browning Buckmark Plus Vision UFX Black/Gold, 5.9" barrel, suppressor ready (soft bag) (INGO)

Bought an INGO lower and built a nicely enhanced Aero Precision M4 E1

I picked up a Marlin 1894 25-20 made in 1902 to see what all the fuss is about old, obscure calibers. Most importantly it has a good bore. Didn't cost too much for a lever gun these days. It needs a range trip.

Those old rifles are neat. I want one made before 1930, but was later converted to a more modern caliber like 357 magnum or 44 at the factory. A lot of these conversions were done before WW2.

Hickok45 has an 1892 Winchester that the company rechambered to 357 from 32-20 I believe

There's enough barrel to convert this thing to something else if I wanted to but I already have a .357 and 44 lever gun among others. Never know though.

5 guns so far in 2023, but you have to realize that I had no guns before the summer of "peaceful protests." Then upon getting a gun, I started getting interested in them and like any person who is fascinated by mechanical things and tools, I got more and more interested in building a collection of guns.

so this year I bought a Sig P938 9mm, S&W Chief's Special .45 ACP, and three S&W revolvers that were just too good of deals to pass up: Two .38 Specials (Model 10 and Model 15) and a .41 Magnum!

A box of 50 single-use internal combustion engines is pretty cool to have and expend!

"6" guns added to the collection so far this year, 4 were mine and 2 the gf's. Finnish m91, Steyr made Polish M95 carbine, French Berthier 1907, VZ 52 pistol, VZ 24 rifle, and M&P bodyguard so its been a good year so far.

Picked up a Sig P322 yesterday

I bought one in January. I love the gun but don’t care for the mags. They get misaligned easily causing jams. Great gun though!

A 50 year old one... in fact, right here off INGO just yesterday.
A Winchester 9422 (circa 1973) with a Redfield Baby 4X. Both in near perfect condition.

 

[hoosierdaddy1976]

Traded muzzleloaders (my CVA sidelock for an Optima) here on INGO this week. I have one daughter who shoots left handed, so this will extend her deer season if need be.

 

[armalitesheepdog]

I have bought 2. Probably the best 2 I have from the same INGOer.
Colt Gold Cup 1978
Winchester 52 Lyman peep sights 1956
Soon to get the unertal scope for it.
I love these 2 and will definitely be leaving them to my son.

2023 was shaping up to be a Rock Island kinda year…



Then I lucked into this…

I think this is the 6th gun I have purchased in 2023, just picked it up today, a used Taurus 445 UL (.44 Special).

I almost snagged a little baby browning 1911 in 22lr. If the barrel would have been threaded I would have had to have bought it. Nothing so far for me in 2023, though I have purchased some parts.

Bought my first non glock. A sig m17 and I love it

I had a 9422M (the .22WMR) and it was a dandy gun, but somewhere along the line a previous owner must have clipped some coils off the hammer spring: every 10 rounds or so would have a soft strike and wouldn't fire. It was back before the internet, and I wasn't able to find a new hammer spring, so I traded it off. But don't feel too bad for me, because for it and $200 I got a new Marlin 1895 .45-70 in trade! Still have the Marlin and it is a joy. Ballard rifling, but with the original thick receiver.

Picked up a 1930's(?) Winchester Model 67 today

Those are nice. I've had one for a long time and they have just the right size to make shooting the larger caliber fun.
