    Fairbanks it is. Dang, maybe I gave too much info? As much as I would love to help with your water bill, I have two boys in college, so I can't. This next purchase I will make takes quite a bit of saving, about the only time i get me money!

    I do want a suppressor, I like the ones my dad has. I am kind of waiting to see if the new administration makes in a non-NFA item?
    The Dems will probably block it, I wouldn't hold my breath. They are really fun though. Don't let the $200 stamp stop you.

    I recommend a nice CZ and installation of Pro package parts from Cajun Gun Works and good night sights, like mepros or TruGlo TFX. If you get a nice CZ used, you can likely get the CGW parts and sights and stay in your budget. You end up with a seriously sweet gun. Here's a pic of the nicest shooting gun I own, CZ 75 Compact with TruGlo TFX, extended thumb safety, CGW Pro package and a SAO trigger:

    Everyone, I mean EVERYONE, should have a basic .22LR pistol and rifle.

    +1 on this!

    If cash is an issue and you are short on funds the 22 is a great way to get cheap trigger time! If you are set on the 1911 platform look at one in a 22. Cheap practice for your current platform (I know it is not exactly the same) but it is still better than dry fire.

    You could also get a 22 cal insert for your AR....get these two and you would still have $300-400.00 left over?

    With my expected haul from Christmas Plus what I have saved, I expect to have around 900ish to spend. I already have a nice Kimber classic custom royal and a Colt M4, but want another 1911 and would also like another ar-15. The Ruger 1911 looks nice as well as several AR's. With about 900 what would you buy?

    I would get a ar 15 clone in 22 so you can practice more often. The smith and wesson is the only one with the same controls as the ar. I have a performance center version that I like. I would get the standard version and a sig p320 subcompact or glock 19, or the carry gun of your choice.

    you can not go any better than a Chiappa Rhino.
    Now you can get it in original 357/38 and/or 9mm.
    It is just as much fun as great to shoot.

    Seems like a lot of stress deciding. I say give it away here and stay warm in the thoughts that one of us put it to immediate use :)

    Have you considered building an AR? For $900(ish) you could build yourself a VERY nice gun. I spent about $500 in total on my first AR build and it shoots just as well as any of my friends store bought ARs.
