Toss in a good target grade .22 too-they are a blast.The Ruger or Sig Trailside would be a good place to start :wink:

Hoashooter, I already have a Ruger MK II. Not quite target grade but sufficient for my purposes. 
A 1911 is a future purchase without question. I'm putting that one off a bit because there are so many varieties to choose from. I'd be alright with a used 1911 too but I really like the SA Milspec.

A pistol I have always wanted... a Schofield in .45LC. It's a great gun and one I KNOW you don't have, right? Gotta have a top-break in your collection. Besides, that will leave lots of $$$ for ammo!

You NEED a 1911
Agreed.
I'm going to the largest gun show in Michigan tomorrow. I'll primarily be looking for older or harder to find handguns since I don't need another shotgun or a new gun that I could buy elsewhere right now. I will add a 1911 to my collection in good time. I need to do a little research into how much I am willing to pay and exactly what I want in a 1911. I'm leaning towards a Springfield since they are so heavily recommended on the forum.

The money I've been spending isn't my income but rather my tax refund and birthday money. Trust me, I'm about to slow down and start saving again.
NG, About six months ago I passed up on a M-1 Garand in great condition for $600 because I didn't have the money. The owner sold it after a few weeks and I doubt I'll ever see that condition for that price again. Rifles and handguns are both cool but for the most part I'm still a shotgun guy. I just have enough of those for quite some time so I'm looking at revolvers.
The gunshow was yesterday and there was only one M-1 Garand. It was the D-Day commerative with a wood case for over $1000. I would prefer an arsenal rebuild for less. I did however buy a S&W model 629. I have a pic in the S&W forum. Now it's time to slow down. My funds are rapidly dwindling.
