How about some eccentric choices:
Bolt Action Rifle - ‘03 Springfield or ‘98 Mauser
Semi-Auto Rifle - M1 Garand, M 14, or AK 47
Shotgun - Benelli Super 90 12 ga.
Small Caliber Rifle - M1 Carbine .30
Semi-Auto Handgun - H&K USP .45, Sig-Sauer 226 9mm, Wilson Combat Match-Tuned 1911A1 .45
Revolver - Colt Python .357 magnum, Smith & Wesson Model 29 .44 magnum
A bit over budget on some items, but one should never stint on such things; sell your wife if you have to, but never short-change yourself on your choice of weapons.
Wilson Combat Match-Tuned 1911A1 .45
Okay - how do you get one of those???
LOL- looking for a .45 Match Grade myself. Have a year to practice before Perry :)
Any advice on a .45 would be appreciated.
