The ever so tempting tax refund...
So with a grand total of $1004 coming back to me in a matter of days and I am debt free and have bills covered so guns galore are ahead of me.
The question is which ones?

I used mine to cover some school projects.
Parts to build a (mostly Caspian/Wilson Combat) 1911, sights and grips for my CZ 75 BD, and a couple small tools.

One(s)? As in plural? As in you're getting a whopping $1004 back and expect to score plural guns on that??? Dude,,,,you get 1000 extra points for making my day - in that there are some true optimists left on the planet! After going head to head with Insurance companies & Medicare and what's covered and what's cosmetic and how far whoever had their head stuck up thier back end when they called a small device that is so small it disappears that does nothing but help you hear - cosmetic!!! You sir, have made my day!!! Anyhow - - -I'd get a S&W M69 in the short barrel I just found out existed. Either that or a .Hi-Point 45 acp and a 9mm and a 9mm carbine (& still have some left over to buy a Hi Point Knife! for $219) |

Um, guys -- this is a gun forum, not a bike forum or a general "cool toys" forum. I've deleted several posts; stay on topic, please.

2 guns for $1000
2 guns for $1000 or less= no problem. Just got a Ruger LCR and a Remington 870 HD 20ga for $836. If I would've settled for a maverick 88 I could've got 3 guns.

If I were to pop a grand of tax refund on a gun I would likely place it towards one good rifle or handgun than two lesser guns. That said it's your grand to spend on whatever trips your trigger.

Welp, a good chunk has been spend on Ammo, magazines, and the upper reciever for my AR build and the lower will be bought soon and I'll have about $200 left and will likely buy more ammo or put up for a rainy day.
