Buy recommendations Help me splurge!!! 💸

Hey guys - it finally looks like I'll have my PAL/RPAL in hand this week based on the update on my RCMP Profile.

I've been to a store to browse around but it's pretty overwhelming especially as someone new in the hobby.

I do want to stock up on a few different types, I know I'll be in the range quite a bit and think they're just beautiful in general.

I've also been looking at a lot of the reviews here on Reddit but I'm looking to see if I could get some consolidated feedback from this community before I "pull the trigger" 😫 on these purchases. Here's what I'm considering:

1) EGE Panzer M4 Speed Pro (12GA Semi)

2) Federation Firearms GK12 Gatekeeper Pump (12GA Pump)

3) Adler Arms RF224 (11.7")

4) Derya TM22 (18 or 16") - **I've seen quite a bit of mixed reviews on these. Also not sure if I should just wait for 18" to be in stock.

5) ATI SKS w Folding Stock

6) S&W 1854 Stealth Hunter - **Not sure what caliber/ammo I should go for

let me know your thoughts!

Ahhhh so lucky. I’m over here checking my email every 5 minutes to see if they’ve changed anything. I’ve already got my lineup picked out.

What's on your list? Bruh my brother got his PAL/RPAL before I did, and I applied before him LOL

I had to message CFO ON and get an update, they said it takes 6 months on average (I emailed them at the 4 month mark), and ended up getting it at the 5 month mark.

I emailed them. They said the same thing.

First of is a Benelli nova 3. It was either that or the Winchester sxp.

Then my own personal little dream gun. Henry Big boy 357 mag large loop. 🤤

I havnt decided on my 22 yet. Probably some simple like a ruger 10/22

Then it’s a ruger American mark II chambered in 308

And I haven’t decided on my 300 win mag
