There is a difference between NEED and WANT. I don't need any additional guns. I want more, primarily a few additional long guns.





If you're goin' through hell, keep on going.
Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it.
You might get out before the devil even knows you're there.

Being a capitalist at heart, my last purchase would be to buy a ship... full of quality small & long arms, which I could then sell at sky-high prices as the market dries up. I don't believe any of us would be truly content if we had to sit still as firearm development continued (new tech and military conflict will ensure it), so no I wouldn't be happy if firearm production for civilians stopped tomorrow. Am I OK with what I have now in the general sense given cost of capital considerations where my personal assets are concerned, the answer would be yes... but that might change based on how I perceive a newly released firearm (e.g. Steyr's M9-A2).

I'm good. LBJ's Ammoholic thread motivated me. I think I'm good for the rest of my life, if need be. I am stacked very deeply, since before the last election.

Open to new ideas, of course!

I've been content for a couple years now in regards to actual firearms.

However my need for primers, bullets and powder will always be insatiable.

Didn’t mean for folks to get hung up on the supply drying up. I just wanted to see if we were all kinda the same in that we all are probably perfectly happy with what we have but there is always one more. I was curious if there really was only one more would there be one or have you reached that point of...nah I’m good.

This is why I changed it to a disposable income question.

Part of this is looking at stuff like the G43X/G48 and thinking both wow that’s cool and then......why? What does this do practically or for fun that I don’t have covered many ways from Sunday.

Anyway. Appreciate the replies and for indulging me.

Well, that's kind of the point. We're not talking about cars or Rolexes. We're talking about relatively affordable items (for the most part) that are relatively easy to sell down the road (for the most part), and we live in a country where a pretty wide range of options are not only accessible but perfectly legal (for the most part). In other words, it's perfectly reasonable to approach guns from the standpoint that part of the fun is being able to try something rather than being focused on having reached some kind of saturation point.

As long as I could get the last couple parts to finish my AR pistol project, I'd be content.

If I couldn't readily get the parts, then I'm still perfectly fine.
