You know I've got to the point I really don't take much interest in my guns.It's really hard to understand,because I was a good shot in the service,and while I was in law enforcement I was a firearms instructor.I surely wouldn't spend anymore money on firearms,I don't shoot the ones I have.I was going to get in S.A.S.S....single action shooting society,but I lost interest.So now I have a sawed off double barrel 12 gauge shootgun,a nice 6 inch barrell Schofield with about 18 rounds thru it,and a CZ 75,that I've never fired.I at least clean them now and then,but I don't go out to the local range at all.I guess all my time messing with guns in the service..law enforcement,caused me to be less enthusiastic with firearms.

I must agree with IronDog.  When you're forced to spend time at the range to keep your job, it's no longer a fun experience.  I use to enjoy it, now it's a necessity.

P.S.  It's gotten to the point where I enjoy reloading more then shooting.

P.P.S.  If I were to purchase another, it would be a Smith & Wesson’s 329PD .44 Magnum Lightweight Revolver.

The next firearm I would like to get is an M-14 in .308 (7.62X51) I know Springfield Armory has one that is nice.

Right now I have to many projects, not enough safe space, and live in Commiefornia.

I did not buy a gun for myself recently, but I purchased one for my son yesterday.   It should arrive at his FFL within a week and a half.

One of his friends has a Remington 700 in .22-250, and he really wants to get one too.   Since he mainly plans to use it on Jackrabbits and Coyotes, I figured that the 700 LVSF model would be the best one to get for him.   This is what the rifle looks like:



And here is an overview of it:

http://www.remington.com/products/firearms/centerfire_rifles/model_700/model_700_LV_SF.asp

Total cost of the rifle with the Nikon Monarch 4-16x Scope for it, rings and bases for the scope, and various shipping costs for everything will be about $1,250

However, my son will be putting $550 towards it.   So it will not entirely be a gift.   I will only be out about $700.

There is something about "The Judge" that makes me believe that it would hurt a lot to be shot by one.   Perhaps it is this image of a Judge being loaded that makes me believe this:
