Horse trade, hand me down, swapped for precious metals or bought with your wife's greenbacks...what's the newest addition to your safe?
Mine is a 629 6.5 inch purchased and picked up today. Yep it's new with the hillary hole... But, since we're shooting 38 specials tomorrow, I'll have to lust for some 44 range time next week.
What's yours?
-John
PS For you tin foil hatters out there...we all know that firearms cited in this thread were immediately lost during a boat mooring accident while preparing for the Hurricane headed to Flave's house.

A Kimber Subalpine 30-06 I bought in Idaho a month or so ago. I'll mount a 1.5-8X Vortex Razor on it tomorrow.

I posted this is the handgun forum the other day. My newest gun is a Sig P320X Macro that I bought Thursday.
I was at the store to do an efile for a form 4 and impulse bought it not knowing anything about it.
I’m really liking the gun. It’s flat in profile and slim but holds 17 rounds of 9x19 with pretty good factory night sites, a good trigger for a striker fire, optic ready, and feels great in the hand while not being a whole lot bigger than a pocket gun.

Today, a used New England single-shot 12ga. I suppose there could be simpler bang for the buck, but, not much.

I picked up a 77 tanger in .257 Roberts.
I paid about a hunnert bucks more for it than it was worth, but IDGAF. I wanted it and they don’t come up on the block very often.
It’s a beaut, especially if you’re a 77 fan.

I picked up a sweet little Winchester 37 in 410 about three weeks ago. I killed a couple of squirrels with it last week. The boys were patterning their shotguns today in preparation for an upcoming bird hunt so I cut me a target and took my turn at the bench from 25 yards. It threw an absolute beautiful pattern; a lot better than my 370.

The XD is a fine plastic weapon. I have one that started life as a tactical 45 - now 45 super that has stood up to a couple thousand rounds of my heavy foot on the gas.

I think that the last gun that I bought was a S&W Model 629 4" barrel stainless .44 magnum. I have two other Ruger SBH .44 mag pistols, but I thought the smaller S&W would be easier to carry.
I put a trigger spring kit in my S&W that considerably lightened the trigger, and it has become one of my favorite pistols to carry in the woods. It is one of the guns that I take to the range almost every week, and I enjoy shooting .44 Special loads through it at my 8" steel gong at 25 yards.
I've also carried in on my last two Alaskan hunts.

Got a 629 that needs a red dot. Haven’t bought anything in a while but a benelli M4 is in my future. Last thing I bought was a steyr scout in .308 on a local online auction site. Got notification I’d won it for $1,000 and seriously don’t ever remember seeing it, much less bidding on it.
