that's why I've moved on to vintage and obscure sporting rifles and guns. you can get some absurdly high quality stuff for pennies on the dollar because its "out of fashion" literal hand made rifles/shotguns for way way less than what they were when new accounting for inflation.

there is so much variation in them too. from obscure German and British provincial shops mostly with names like Miller & Val. Griess, Eduard & Franz Kettner, W. Collath, Lancaster, Charles Boswell, Mortimer, Darne, the list goes on.

I'd like to pick up a good condition Darne. so cool. so weird. the standard grades go for about 1,000 usually. they are not common but they are not that rare either.

I kind of agree with you. I'm shifting away from the black assault rifle and plastic fantastic stuf myself and going for the wood and real steel stuff. I just picked up a pre-1964 Winchester Model 88 lever action. It's beautiful.

Get you a Savage 99 to match it. they are usually priced lower than the 88 as they made well over a million of them. come in all kinds of cartridges and calibers obscure and common.

Walther MPL?
sadly no, although i do have a Beretta M12 and a SITES Spectre. both transferable although the M12 is pretty beat up and has been rebuilt once already since it was a former movie gun (The Replacement Killers as well as a few other films before i purchased it and restored it to normal).
skeletonized ARs?
zero unless you count stuff like cut-away display/prop guns which are still technically firearms.
.44 Auto Mag and .45 Win Mag (bought directly from Wildey Inc in the early 90's). it works pretty good, but i prefer my LAR Grizzly as i'm more used to the feel and find 1911's easier to shoot with personally.
 
Next handful of guns I plan on buying:

Smith & Wesson CSX E-Series - Hammer fired pocket 9. Single Action only. I have a similar gun with the FN Reflex and it's great.

Ruger No1 - Can get one right now in 6.5cm but for whatever reason in my head, anything less than a magnum caliber for this gun is a waste. Probably the smallest I'd go here is 45-70 or 30-06.

Browning BAR DBM - Probably 30-06 as I plan on going on a few bear hunts this year.
 
IWI just posted this with #tbt. I loved the full auto Uzi I shot. Wonder if they're bringing back the uzi pro. View attachment 7119017
Fuck, I need that brace for mine..

I actually already have the A3 foregrip, its pretty nice, ngl. The factory Uzi Pro brace setup is heavy as fuck tho.

Edit: I'm retarded, the same company makes the collapsing brace, too, lmao.
 
Finally Valgear gets his hands on an MG5:
I've been wanting to see the guts and function of those things for a while.
I've never understood the fascination about the MG5. The weight is just unacceptable for 2025. It weighs as much as an FN MAG for crying out loud. There are options available that are literally half the weight of that thing.
 
How do you like the Wildey?

Speaking of the Wildey, I am starting to regret not buying one from USA Firearms instead of the Auto Mag. I tried calling them yesterday and their number is disconnected. Scuttlebutt is that the group of investors backing them and causing all the fuckaroo that has held them back from actually getting guns to customers are wanting to be reimbursed now and trying to force the company into Chapter 7 bankruptcy, which is an involuntary bankruptcy and means they don't have the assets to cover their debts, let alone making customers waiting on their pistols whole by issuing refunds. If I had gone for the Wildey instead it would have been less money, I actually would have gotten my pistol since USA Firarms are actually getting pistols into customers hands reliably, and I could have gotten barrels for both .475 Wildey Magnum and .45 Winchester Magnum. So I'm out nearly four grand and have nothing to show for it aside from a good credit score by making payments on the loan.
