Have you ever bought more than one gun a month? - Page 2 - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

I average one "gun-related" purchase per month. One time it was three stripped AR lowers, another time it was a shotgun, etc, etc. This month it was an M&P 9mm.

There are exceptions, though. If I sell a gun, I buy a gun. Even if I've already spent my "gun money" for the month. I just sold my XD-45C the other day, so now I'm debating on what to replace it with.

I bought a Ruger 10/22 and a week later at a gun show I picked up an AK47 and an SKS. So that would make 3 I guess. Reason? I like guns I guess.

The most I've bought in a month is 3, a S&W Sigma .40, Springfield Loaded 1911 .45, and a Springfield XD .45 Tactical, about $1700 total.

Three pistols, two rifles, two shotguns.

What's a limit?

in Ca. we are alowed to buy 1 new one a month, but if you do a PPT you can buy as many as you can afford.
I just bought 3 this month, a Sig P220 .45ACP, a S&W mdl37 .38+, and a Taurus sunb. .38+, all clear on Friday.
There is extra paper work involved but they were a good deal.

The CA law is actually one new handgun a month.

My best month was three. A Springfield MC Operator, a Stoeger SXS 20ga and a Jennings J22...well I guess that's two and a half

...but I just had to have the Jennings, it is everything CA hates in a handgun!

Once I bought a 30-06 and .22 mag rifle in the same week.

I usually only buy one at a time and it is months before another purchase but I just got a sweet new job and will be making a lot more $ then before (which actually isnt saying much) but I plan on spending about $3,000.00 in the next 3 months.

I want to get the following:

*Bushmaster AR-15 in .223;
*Marlin model 60 .22lr (to lower cost of shooting);
*SKS;
*Marlin 30-30 (probably at walmart $318.xx);
*Tactical XD in Earth;
*As much ammo for the above as possible.
