What's your next gun?

I know a lot of purchase decisions are more or less spontaneous (me and 22s lol), but I also know that everyone has a wish list that they are quietly working through. I am thinking 1903A3 and Webley .455 is something I’d like next, how about you - what’s your “next gun”? I don’t mean an ambitious “on day before I die” goal, but realistically what are you eyeing as your next gun?

As in buying one a 1873 Springfield Trapdoor in 45-70.

The other is building one, a custom chassis rifle in as yet undecided calibre, either in 7mm Rem Mag or 300 Win Mag.

I’m thinking to get a lever 22 of some sort for plinking.

Haven’t decided if I want a lever release, or a cowboy style lever though. The Chiappa take down rifles look cool though.

You are putting Cz in the same boat at Chiappa?! Oh dear child.

CZ would be nicer, but also out of what I’m wanting to spend. I was thinking Savage A22R.

Though, I do have a proper job now.

That’s noice!!!

I’m looking at getting either a ruger mk 4 hunter stainless or the volquartsen black mumba, I am trying to convince myself that the volquartsen is worth the extra $$$$.
If anyone here has had either, I would love to hear what you think about it.

I’ve owned MkIV in the past and I’ve shot Volquartsen (believe it was Scorpion). The Volquartsen has an amazing trigger. By far a lot better than stock MkIV, however! With better trigger (which I had) I’d say it’s in the same boat, not 100%, but maybe really really close. I just had a trigger, but I believe there are a lot more parts you can get to upgrade (which let’s be honest Volquartsen is, just an upgraded mod). @1Fatman will have a lot more to say on the Hunter model, maybe start a new thread for that.

Ruger however is a bit, as they say, agricultural. You can see machine marks of the bolt. Some things are just not as refined to look at and not as polished as you’d expect on a premium gun. But in terms of accuracy, reliability and function I highly doubt you’d be ‘outshot’ by Volquartsen.

Thanks for the info.
I think I will go for the volquartsen.
