I own a mossberg 20, a 22 remington, and a taurus 9mm.

I an currently looking to get a 40 m&p and then an AR15.
I would really love to have a sweet little battle rifle, so I am
honestly a tad little jealous of ya jbrooks.

I will probably get my m&p 40 first cause I can carry it nearly
everywhere. But I really do wish I had an AR for ranged encounters.

If I was you I would wouldn't trade anything for anything, if you have to
save about 50$ a month and after a year maybe on your birthday get your
12g shotty.
