Her name is Malory. My class III dealer buddy met her at Shot Show a few years back and got this picture autographed. He says she was much hotter in person.

I know, I know. feel like a loser...

My problem is all I have to work with for mounting options are these. And the GAU-8/A Avenger will push me over the FAR 103 weight limit (254lbs) for the plane. And I really don't know if the suspension on the Toyota is up for it either.

I realize that I know way too much about Dillon Precision models, but that is Cathy...pic below is Mallory. Having said that, both are pretty damn shiny.

I don't miss working on that big fucker. As a matter of fact, I remember pulling that specific GAU-8 apart and putting it back together in FTD.... Cross-training was a good choice.
 
Re: your 5 must have guns (pictures)

From my current stock;
Savage mkII fv 22lr, 4-16x40
Mossy 500 12ga
Glock 22
Mini 14
Savage 11 308 hvy barrel, 4-16x40


Fantasy list;
Socom 308 instead of Mini
Mossy 930 Jungle gun instead of 500
Glock17 instead of 22
 
Re: your 5 must have guns (pictures)

In order:

1: .22 LR Long arm of some kind. Preferably short and handy.

2-5 are optional, really:

2: Small, concealable handgun (Glock 26/36/Xds/pps/SW J-frame(my choice))
3: High-powered rifle of some kind. (read: stereotypical deer rifle)
4: Shotgun of some kind. I prefer pump actions with shorter barrels.
5: Full bore revolver. 357, 41, 44, 45 etc.

My choices were made from the standpoint of having to remain self sufficient on a decent-sized parcel of land with an unknown duration to next resupply. Quite frankly, I've killed just about everything with a .22LR rendering the other 4 slots a luxury. A 40 grain solid is bad medicine inside 50 yards on anything with a vulnerable CNS.
 
Re: your 5 must have guns (pictures)

1911 mars rail gun 45
Benelli m4 12 gauge
10.5" 300blk ar15
16" smith m1a or LMT MWS/ gap10
Aiax 338LM

Not a lot you couldn't do with that
 
Re: your 5 must have guns (pictures)

FN FAL .308 (I would consider swapping a PWS 214)
AK74 in .223 or AR in .223
Badger M2008 .308 (I would consider swapping this for a 300wm)
Rem 870 12Ga
Glock 23 (with spare 9mm barrel and .22 switch slide set up)

I believe that you should have weapons that fire all the common and most available calibers. This way you can always find ammo.
 
Re: your 5 must have guns (pictures)

ar-15, 16" 223 flat top etc...
ar-10 (That takes SR25 Mags), 20", 20-30x scope on top end, red dot, other goodies
50 BMG Bolt action, with a good scope
rem 11-87, 21" extended mag tube, loading gate,
40 cal pistol (Maybe 9mm), either sig 226 or cz-75

5 Calibers. Easy to resupply. Common domestic and military calibers that can be found anywhere and from anoccupying force. Only thing that would make it simpler is to switch the 40 cal pistols to 9nato to find ammo easier. But with most police forces in this country using a 40 its not like they are rare.
 
5 is tough because I'd like to have 3 different shotguns and 2 different pistols.
The first 3 have to be rifles as far as I'm concerned.....which limit my shotguns/pistols

a. AI AX PSR (simply because I can cover several calibers with one rifle....just swap barrel/bolts)
b. CZ 455 (for .22LR, .22MAG or .17HMR)
c. AR-15
d. Benelli SBEII 12ga
e. Tough call.....either a 1911 or a Springfield XD in .45

And obviously enough magazines and ammo to make me happy.
 
Do spare slides, barrels and uppers count as part of the five?

Sig P226 9mm with .22 LR conv unit
Colt LE6920 with TacSol SBX upper, DPMS .22 upper, PRI Mk12 upper, and (unspecified make) 11.5" SBR upper
Remington 870 Express Tactical with 28" vent rib barrel and 23" rifled slug barrel
Remington Model 700 VLS .308 Win
CZ USA 455 Precision Trainer with .22WMR sporter barrel and .17HMR varmint barrel
 
AR22, custom upper with Seekins lower. SD-E trigger
M&P9, full size, 9mm
AR: POF in 5.56
Surgeon/Marc Soulie bolt gun in .260. Surgeon RSR action, McM A5 stock.
Winchester M70 in 325 WSM

This would take care of 95% of my needs.
 
1) Remington 700P custom.
2) SAXD
3) RRA AR-15
4) Remingon 870 Wingmaster (i wanted an 1187 wing but couldnt afford it)
5) SA 1911 loaded

those are my five and i love them all. no plans to purchase anything else, i really cant justify any further buying.
