Need help prioritizing...

[wpmason]

So, there are a few guns on my list, but money's an issue and I honestly can't decide what order to look for them in. I'd like to get each of the following...

a j frame or similar
a 1911
a tactical shotty
a mid-grade o/u trap/skeet gun

This is further complicated because I currently have a M&P 9c and a 686, which the j frame would sorta fill that middle ground.

The 1911 is just because I want a nice steel gun, mainly for target shooting.

I have a field 870 that I don't want to put tac gear on because I currently use it for hunting and trap. I don't want to have to swap out parts for different uses.

So just for fun, if it was your decision to make, what order would go with and why?

Tactical Shotgun or 1911

Extremely useful / Beautiful and fun to shoot

You can start with a tac Shotgun for around $200.00, H&R Partner. This is an 870 Clone made by Norinko. It would be a good H/D Gun.Think about priorties next, Carry Gun or Trap/Skeet gun. If yur looking for an O/U for both you'll need a 2 barrel set, this = High dollar. I'd go with a 1911 for buy #2.

Since the h&r is an 870 clone cam it accept after market stockd made for an 870 ?

I say trap gun. You have the SD roles filled, and a shotgun you can modify for the HD role. Trap is fun, and you can get a decent one for 1911 money.

Then save up for a really nice 1911 and get that too.

My vote would be 1911. You have the other bases covered, although not necessarily in the format you want.
