Im upgrading in guns?

Question

okay im selling 7 of my guns for deal prices and am expecting to get around 1200$ when there all gone. and i would like to get some new better ones but heres the question what should i get? i know wat i want but what gun should i get heres the cailabers i want

12 gauge thatll shoot 2 3/4 3'' 3 1/2

.308 bolt action

and 7.62x39 (have a 1000 round of ammo my dad gave me but no gun to shoot it in)

could i get a gun in all these cailabers for under 1200$ and if so tell me what the make and model and price they are.

Answer 1

Personally, I think the .308 is overrated. My .280 Remington will shoot a 165 grain at 2800 fps with only a 32 inch drop at 400 yards. This far eclipses the down range performance of the .308. Even the CREATOR of the .270 recommends this round over the case that HE HIMSELF designed.

I recommend these models:

-New England Firearms Handi Rifle ($210-280 used)

-Remington 870 express magnum ($190-450 used

-Any civilian ak 47 variant with a milled (not stamped) receiver. These can get more pricey so check your pawn shops and online auctions closely. My SLR 95 was $650 used. I place the malfunction rate at .1%, and this is only due to "bump-firing." I hope this has been helpful and Happy Shooting.

Answer 2

Excellent answer vangion all for $1200 or one for $1200. I gave you a thumbs up.

How about getting one or two higher quality firearms and saving for the third down the road.

The combinations are mind boggling...

Answer 3

The Remington 870 Super Mag Shotgun fires 2 3/4 inch to 3 1/2 inch cartridges.... An excellent coice usualy on sale for around $370...

Answer 4

If it were me doing the buying with those goals, here is what I'd buy.

Mossberg M-835 pump shotgun

Browning BLR, in .308 Win, it gives bolt-action accuracy with the speed of a lever-action.  The BLR's well earned reputation for accuracy would not be a deterent either.

A Russian or Yugoslavian SKS.

I'd spend most of the rest of the money on a  Leupold Vari-X III 4-12X50mm scope.

Answer 7

SKS around 250 to 350

I would go with the 12ga and a 308

use whats left to buy ammo for them and save up for an AK or SKS.

Or...

Remington 799 bolt action in 7.62x39 - about $600

and

Any good 12ga for about 400
