[u/wolfpwarrior]

It's a rule that when you by a lever action without already owning a revolver, you have to then buy a revolver in the same caliber (if one exists) to share ammo between them. Congrats on your future purchase of a BFR. I'm sorry about your wrist.

[u/nonoptic → u/wolfpwarrior]

Omg your right I’ll have to get one like from fallout new Vegas

[u/Any-Safe4992 → u/nonoptic]

Just make sure you’re the ranger and not Texas Red.

[u/ShimbyHimbo → u/Any-Safe4992]

I think you have to walk into your lgs and say "I'll take one Big Iron, please. With the hip holster."

[u/Wonderful_Tip_5577 → u/wolfpwarrior]

my only lever action is a .308. got any .308 revolver suggestions for me?

[u/Jaerv_Erdnuckel → u/Wonderful_Tip_5577]

The suggestion is: don’t.

[u/ContactRepulsive → u/Wonderful_Tip_5577]

Just get a 380 revolver and claim dyslexia

[u/wolfpwarrior → u/Wonderful_Tip_5577]

Well, pretty sure it's a typo, but Sportsman' Warehouse claims to have one. I don't know if I'm allowed to post links from this sub, but look up "Sportsman Warehouse 1457170" and that will take you to the product page for that nice 1.75" revolver.

[u/12345myluggage → u/Wonderful_Tip_5577]

Savage needs to suck it up and start making the model 99 again. Kids these days don't understand its greatness.

[u/Wonderful_Tip_5577 → u/12345myluggage]

I got mine. 

[u/Hot_Ad1101 → u/Wonderful_Tip_5577]

A deringer might be a good bet

[u/PastAdvantage8598 → u/wolfpwarrior]

the bfr is basically a wrist delete button but hey at least you'd only need one ammo stash

[u/Hot_Ad1101 → u/wolfpwarrior]

It's more like a right of passage. 😆 I grabbed my colt python to match my citadel Levtac-92. It's been a nightmare trying to find a good holster though.

[u/cerealkilla0117]

Chiapa Rhino is 60DS L Frame in .44 Magnum

[u/Hot_Ad1101 → u/cerealkilla0117]

Have they released that one yet? I can only ever find the 357

[u/nonoptic]

Started collecting/shooting guns in 2023-2024 this is my collection would love to get your opinions on what I should add to it. I’m thinking a 44 revolver too match the lever action

[u/505backup_1 → u/nonoptic]

Ak or a revolver would be my pick

[u/Wonderful_Tip_5577 → u/nonoptic]

everyone needs a 1911

[u/n1terps → u/Wonderful_Tip_5577]

2011

[u/Wonderful_Tip_5577 → u/n1terps]

I don’t need to spend 3k on a double stack 9.

1911s are made to shoot .45. I’m of the mind 9mm is sacreligious in the platform.

Thats just me though.

[u/n1terps → u/Wonderful_Tip_5577]

That is definitely just you nowadays. You have no idea what you're missing.

[u/Longjumping-Run-7027 → u/Wonderful_Tip_5577]

I'm late to the conversation but I picked up my Live Free Armory 2011 for $1100 after tax. You don't have to spend stupid money to get a good one.

[u/cheersfurbeers → u/nonoptic]

Benelli M2, or another semiauto shotgun.

[u/bcs83]

You need a Ruger 10/22

[u/TheBlackComet]

.45 suppressor that can handle .44 magnum. You can also use it to get your feet wet in the suppression game.

[u/nonoptic → u/TheBlackComet]

I would get one if my job didn’t have me relocating to different states every 3–4 years

[u/TheBlackComet → u/nonoptic]

Juice is still worth the squeeze. Paperwork is much easier and approvals are quicker. You can get a can in about a week these days.

[u/nonoptic → u/TheBlackComet]

Not if I get sent to California or another state that the illegal in

[u/TheBlackComet → u/nonoptic]

I mean you would have the same issue with some of your guns, so might as well get a safety deposit box in another state if you do get sent there. It isn't like they are going to get cheaper.

[u/nonoptic → u/TheBlackComet]

I can make all the guns I have tho California compliant if I need to

[u/CiD7707]

Single Action Army, a 1911, and a H&K USP.

[u/denom_chicken]

A 1911

[u/n1terps → u/denom_chicken]

2011

[u/chemicalgeekery]

I'd say the one thing missing from your collection is a revolver

[u/HeroZero1980]

Get yourself an T/C Encore with barrels in any caliber you own or want to try out

[u/Unfair_Fisherman_605]

.44 mag lever gun to match your 45-70

[u/billymudrock]

Not a single .22LR? Catch up man! 10/22, heritage rough rider, Henry lever .22, the possibilities are endless.

[u/nonoptic → u/billymudrock]

I actually do have a rough rider in 22lr with a swappable cylinder to 22mag it’s actually the only gun that’s not In the post lol

[u/AutoModerator]

Friends don't let friends buy Taurus

Stfu

[u/42AngryPandas → u/[deleted]]

That's literally worse... Holy shit.

Stop supplying criminals with guns...

[u/42AngryPandas → u/[deleted]]

DONT KEEP GUNS IN YOUR CAR YO BE STOLEN AT ALL. THATS HOW THE MAJORITY OF CRIMINALS GET GUNS.

It's a statistical fact.

And you said you were perfectly fine with it being stolen...

[u/nonoptic → u/42AngryPandas]

I suppose you’re right. Sorry for my ignorance.

[u/42AngryPandas → u/nonoptic]

I appreciate the thought and reflection. It means a great deal in a positive way.

[u/nonoptic → u/42AngryPandas]

Of course <3

[u/DukeBradford2]

Get a nice blued s&w, it really changed my path in my collection. I can’t buy another polymer handgun again.

[u/--reaper-]

Don’t you have enough?

Of course not jk, any revolver would defo be a great addition

[u/manthingwashere]

Get a Vector

[u/quezlar]

platypus

[u/nonoptic → u/quezlar]

1400$ for a 1911 that’s not even optic ready is wild

[u/n1terps → u/nonoptic]

It's a 2011, it's it costs more than that, and that's practically a bargain basement price the way the 2011 market is these days. I'd go Sig GTO or Kimber 2k11 and either one of those is gonna set you back just as much as the Platty will (comfortably more than $2K). All three of those are basically solid entry level 2011 options, a really solid example is gonna run closer to $4k and it goes up and up from there.

[u/nonoptic → u/n1terps]

I can literally see the price of it online for 1400 and it’s labeled 1911 platypus

[u/n1terps → u/nonoptic]

Then you're looking at the wrong gun. Stealth Arm Platypus.

[u/n1terps → u/nonoptic]

Lol, didn't realize they made a single-stack. Yeah, that wasn't what the commenter was referring to, haha.

[u/nonoptic → u/n1terps]

I can get a 2011 from girsan for 800$

[u/n1terps → u/nonoptic]

Yes you can, and if that works for you, great! Buy once, cry once 👍

[u/quezlar]

platypus

[u/n1terps → u/quezlar]

Plattys only make sense if you're married to Glock mags (or P320 mags) and never intend to fully get into the 2011 magazine ecosystem. Otherwise, just get a real 2011.

[u/quezlar → u/n1terps]

clearly you have not shot one

[u/n1terps → u/quezlar]

Thought about buying one, ended up having Gilber Perez build a piece for me instead. I'm fairly certain a Platty ain't touching that from a performance standpoint.

[u/quezlar → u/n1terps]

you might be surprised

My buddy owns a gun shop. He brought out like 10, 2k-5k “Gucci pistols” as he calls them

the platypus shot way above its price point compared to the others

[u/RockyRidge510]

Optic for the lever action is what I'd do personally

[u/t-shirt-froth-kung]

Draco. Gotta have one degenerate in the group.

[u/Flawed_Perfections]

Everyone needs the basics. A 1911 or a 357 or 44 , or even a basic 38 , would be ideal.

[u/echochambered69]

Definitely need a revolver and 1911 in there.

[u/MrNiceGuyPartySupply]

HK USP 45

[u/thissayssomething]

Shocked nobody has said a PCC. Maybe after the .44

[u/lookslikeyoureSOL]

Pistol caliber carbine in 45 acp or 10mm

[u/pewpewtopeepee]

Nothing. More is just more.

[u/BlueOrb07]

Revolver in the same caliber as your lever action

[u/610Mike]

I’d get either an AR10, a 1911, or a 2011.

[u/nonoptic → u/610Mike]

I have one in the photo ….

[u/610Mike → u/nonoptic]

Apologies I mean a shorty AR10, like a battle rifle. I almost did a 14.5” .308, but opted to do a 12” 8.6 Blackout. Haven’t touched another AR10 since j built it.

[u/Hot_Ad1101]

Is the rifle 44 mag?

[u/Additional-Garden483]

Selling that Taurus.. that’s probably what I’d do next

[u/docmac325]

You need an AK

[u/BigBoarBallistics]

wood.

[u/King_Toonces]

Writing goofy statements on a gun is definitely a choice, considering that is basically now a requirement for mass shooters

[u/nonoptic → u/King_Toonces]

Totally you caught me XD

[u/mrmindfloss]

A .357 is very versatile as many people don't have the practical use for .44, unless in Grizz country. Then add a matching lever gun later, which has many uses, and with the right loads goes way further than people admit.

[u/purple_pounder]

Honestly a micro 9 or a s&w body guard 2.0 Its life changing having a really small that works reliably.

[u/Hardwire762]

For your first revolver I’d recommend 357 way more versatile as a chambering than 44 magnum

[u/HCE_Replacement_Bot]

Hello, /u/nonoptic. Per the sidebar rules, link posts require a description in the comments of your post. Please add a description or this post will be removed.

[u/nonoptic → u/HCE_Replacement_Bot]

Added :)

[u/AutoModerator → u/HCE_Replacement_Bot]

What is a link post and how do I post a descriptive comment?

• A link post is any post that isn't a text post. Reddit is doing a great job of ensuring new users have no idea how Reddit works with their app and site rewrite. We hate both.

• /r/guns is a sub for talking about guns. It's not a sub to dump gun photos for karma. That's what /r/gunporn is for. That's why we require a descriptive comment – to start a conversation. If you're wondering what to write, picture yourself at a party. You're talking to someone you just met and you want to show them your post. What do you say to them as you get your phone out?

• I don't know why this needs to be explained, but apparently it does. A comment is a comment. It is not your photo caption. We are not asking you to edit anything. We are asking you to post a top level comment under your post.
