After going over my bills for the next month, I realized I have some money to spare. It's time to add another firearm to my collection although i'm really drawing a blank as to what type of gun to get.

I sold my HK USP TACTICAL a while back so I no longer have a .45 for some reason I never got that good with this gun.

I was thinking, perhaps maybe it's time to give the .45 caliber a try again. Keep in mind I do not really favor most 1911 colt/copies. Generally i'm looking for something to carry, has a decent capacity (10+) and i'm not sure if i want to pick up another full size HK or not.

I'd settle if I could find a decent preban AR15 lower, I suppose.

Any suggestions? I'm looking to spend a MAXIMUM of $800.00

one of those new kimber ultra ten 45 with polmyer lower would be pretty sweet

para ordinance makes some hard core hicap 45s

man i was at the range one day and this guy let me fire his kimber gold match. he said it cost $1100. It was the sweetest pistol i've ever fired. I punched out the 10 ring from the one clip i fired. it was great, but way out of my price range.
But, judging from that, kimber makes excellent weapons.

I have never fired a gun at a range but have gotten to shoot some of my friends guns out in the woods

I like the glock 19 best

How much do you have to spare, save up for a while (a long while) and get a full auto lisence.

The P14 is probabaly a really nice gun, however i've never been to fond of 1911 style pistols.

Ditto on the kimber.

You don't need a license to possess a nfa firearm (full auto, supressor, aow, sbr, etc). Only if you intend to deal, then you need a license.

Otherise each Class III/NFA firearm you purchase you get a seperate, item specific registration for.

You have to submit a Form Four, which requires a sign off from the CLEO (chief law enforcement officer) in your jurisdiction. The sherif in my area will not sign the form.

More information on this can be found here...

I am considering on saving up the $3,000.00 (give or take a few hundred) and getting a preban HK 93 with all the goodies. Then later on, pick up a full auto sear, trigger pack, bolt, etc.

Are you seriuos, you dont need i lincens for full auto guns, i was watching this gun show on tnn, the name is on the tip of my tonge but i cant get it. They said a licenes is like 2grand is required for full auto guns. The scarys part of this was seeing a 13 year old with an mp5 on similar im not sure but i think it was a hk.

I really don't know how many times i've already covered this topic (regarding class iii/nfa firearms), but allow me to briefly recap...

(*) You don't need a license to possess a class iii/nfa firearm (full auto, supressor, sbr, aow) unless you plan to be a dealer.

(*) However you must prior to obtaining the firearm you must fill out a form (generally a form four) and send it off to the NFA office. You wait for the paperwork to be processed then you basically recieve a item specific registration. Then after completed the process you can go pick up the item from the dealer.

(*) These items are not legal in every state.

I really have no clue what you are attempting to tell or ask me here. I hope I may have cleared things up for you. Any other questions please feel free to ask.

Why not just get a Browning Hi-Power in a .45?

They're a little big, but you know for a fact they'll never let you down. I wantched one get run over by a APC and when it was scrutinered, it was passed as undamaged, and put back into the aurmory.

They are a pretty 1911 ish though.

That's because John Browning designed both of them around the same time.

I've got my eye on a two tone 229 .40 with a .357sig factory conversion barrel. :0
