Where the heck in the Keys can you shoot either of them?
Gun buying itch
2
I have not bought a new gun in a long while. I'm fighting the itch now. Of course I log in today and see the Go Big or Go Home thread and that did not help one bit.
I am happy with my current collection and have no desire to sell any. My taste has now moved from affordable shooters to expensive shooters. There are two on the radar. The .50 AE Desert Eagle and a .50 BMG rifle. Both of which I would shoot often because well that is what I like to do.
The Desert Eagle is the Color Case hardened model and comes in just under $2000.

The .50 BMG comes in at just under $3500 in the configuration I want. Could knock that down to just under $3100 with the standard model, but hey another $400 for what I really want is worth it.

For me shooting a .50 BMG is hard to explain, I am just overcome with euphoria and find the experience mentally relaxing. Just like shooting my .500 S&W Mag, it is one of the best stress relievers I know. Now I have never shot a .50AE, however I have fondled many Desert Eagles, like the way they feel, and am pretty sure I will like how they shoot. When I visited their booth at the last NRA show I stumbled upon the model I posted above and fell in love with it. Figured it would pass and I would move on. Nope, still have the desire to own it so it remains on my list. Last I checked with my local shop the distributor he used was out of stock.
