How to spend $2500.00?
I would like to solicit the advice/opinions of the members of this board on the following resource allocation challenge.
Hypothetically, an individual has the following weapons:
a.) A basic, plain vanilla, M-4 carbine
b.) A couple of pistols in calibers ranging from .380, 9mm,
.40 S&W.45acp
c.) A couple of shotguns
d.) A couple of hunting rifles.
e.) A modest amount of ammunition, and magazines for each weapon
The individual wants to maximize the utility and flexibility of his small collection for personal/home defense, hunting, and sport shooting. Given the somewhat, unsettled nature of the economy, concerns about the changing political landscape, and an eye to packing up and getting out of town should the need arise, are all considerations.
My question is, how would you folks spend $2500.00 over the next couple of months, to meet the above stated goals, and to get the biggest bang for the buck (please excuse the pun).
Some of the ideas under consideration are, purchase a flat top upper, with quad rails and an EO Tech type sight for the M-4. Buy a lower receiver, increase the ammunition stocks for the weapons on-had, if so what calibers. Purchase a M-1 Garand from the CMP, because of it’s caliber and overall utility. Decide on one or two pistol calibers, and sell or trade the ones not in those calibers for ammunition or, invest in re-loading equipment. I have tried the search button, and while I have found a great number of useful ideas, I was unable to find a thread that addressed this question with the parameters I set.
I would greatly appreciate any suggestions you would be willing to provide.
