Buy recommendations Advice on what to buy next
It’s 4 years I have my PAL. I hunt, go to the range and I shoot clay pigeons. I currently have 3 guns
-1970 Browning BAR 30-06 Belgium
-1990’s Winchester 1300 XTR 12Gauge
-Savage 64F 22LR
I just replenished my gun fund (~2000$)and I’d like to buy a new to me firearm. I’d like a to start a collection but a lot of interesting guns are now banned. I was thinking on a Ruger 10/22 takedown because it’s cool and perfect for a SHTF situation. I have decided to come here and ask what you guys and girls think would be a good addition. Maybe I’m missing something. All suggestions are valid. Thank you in advance

Stripper clips are cheap and compact which makes them ideal for trekking overland or SHTF, conversely it can be loaded with stripper clips which makes it more long term survival suited than any mag fed guns. I have had AR mags(yes more than one) break on me before, though that is not a common occurance.
They are reliable & as we are seeing there is a lot more customization on the Canadian market because it’s simply the most common semi auto on the Canadian market.
A lever action in a pistol caliber is also nice, lever actions are very fun, that or some sort of milsurp bolt gun are my likely next purchases unless something good comes up.
