What am I missing?

These three, short sentences tell you a lot about the direction of our
current government and cultural environment:
1. We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few
lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions
of a few lunatics. Funny how that works.
2. Seems we constantly hear about how Social Security is going to run
out of money. How come we never hear about welfare or food stamps
running out of money? What's interesting is the first group "worked
for" their money, but the second didn't. Think about it.....
and Last but not least,
3. Why are we cutting benefits for our veterans, no pay raises for our
military and cutting our army to a level lower than before WWII, but
we are not stopping the payments or benefits to illegal aliens.
Am I the only one missing something?

Also who has a gun like this and do you like it?
Isn't this a M1 carbine?
I see several dealers offering brand new Hornady brass in this caliber for $46-$49 per 50, or just about a buck apiece. Would anybody pay MORE for used stuff? Do the sellers know something I don't?

I was thinking about shaving my shekels and getting a 1911-type pistol with a budget of around $800 - $1000.

any old greasy military thing you can find, Carcanos go cheap, like new, only dropped once.
1911
1911
1911 (need a few of those)
A kimber Custom will run you less than 800 after tax (in PA) I really like mine, its 1911 #3
Get the 1911 first, then look up a 03a3 (for historical balance) then a 30 cal hunting rifle

Let me lay hands on the wonderment....I say the lord giveth and a kept on a givin....can I get a hell yeah?
here is my favorite...... http://www.wilsoncombat.com/pistols/supergrade.asp

Actually the Kimber would fit the bill nicely. As Rembrant said the Wilsons and Les Baer are awful nice ... but then you could by at least 2 Kimbers for one of those supergrades ...
I don't see a AK style weapon, an SKS or a Mauser in the list ... a HK or FAL, or if you want to stay with American guns, the M1A, Garrand and Springfield '03 come to mind ...
So many guns, so little green!
=================================
Sometimes the most obvious, is the most elusive!kimberkid@gunbroker.zzn.com
? otherwise, you'll find an excuse.
A Rem. Sendero in a magnum caliber
A desert eagle
An ar-15 or an M1A.
Any or all of the above would be a fine addition to your growing collection.
When in doubt...empty the magazine!!
P.S. cold beer
For the handgun chose the standard weapon that you like and trick it out yourself.
How he got in your pajamas I have no idea....
Thank you Mr. Marx where ever you are
You also need a rifle in the .30 caliber range, again you pick, but I'd recommend something like a 30-06. Price range makes a diff. as well as whether or not you reload. Personally, I'd go with a .338 for the big gun, as I like mine, and then fill in the blanks below from that caliber down.
