Our Favorite Expensive Firearms That You Can Actually Obtain

Some people drool over fast cars or beautiful mansions, while others drool over expensive firearms. If the latter sounds like you, you’re in for a treat! 

While reading reviews, guides, and news is fun and dandy, sometimes it’s nice to just sit back and spend a few minutes appreciating the finer things in life—by finer things, I mean firearms. 

Instead of showing you a bunch of historical or custom guns that sold for insane amounts and are no longer available, we’ve compiled this list with only guns you can actually still find and buy…if your pockets are deep enough.

Just remember, this list is completely subjective, and there are a ton of amazing firearms out there. These just happen to be the ones we’ve been drooling over lately ourselves. 

Whether you’re into pistols, rifles, or shotguns, we have something for you on this list!

Nighthawk Custom Agent 2

NightHawk Custom is known for its exquisite but ultra-expensive 1911s. From the “affordable” Trooper model to the top-of-the-line VIP Silver model, you’re sure to find the 1911 of your dreams. 

I’m more of a tactical yet subtle pistol fan, so the Agent 2 is exactly what I’d spring for if I happen to have $5,000 laying around for a 1911.

It’s a collaboration between Nighthawk and Agency Arms, so you know it’s going to have every bell and whistle. The crowned flush-cut barrel, custom trigger, and hand-polished ignition components are only a few of the amazing features. Then you also have Railscales G10 grips, a faceted slide with windows, and a perfect smoke Cerakote finish.

You can order one in 9mm, .45 ACP, or 10mm, but any one of them will be the talk of the town at the range. 

FN SCAR 17S

Whether you’re a video game junkie, military fanatic, or an average Joe that just appreciates hard-hitting rifles, the SCAR 17S should check most of your boxes. 

Most popularly chambered in 7.62×51 mm NATO/.308 Winchester, this is one of those guns that will get you through the zombie apocalypse. It may not be the most expensive on our list, but it’ll still set you back $3,000 or so.

With non-reciprocating charging handles, you’re able to shoot in virtually any position and style, making it extremely versatile. Its monolithic receiver and short-stroke gas piston system provide the ultimate durability and reliability, while the cold-hammer forged and chrome-lined barrel aids in the accuracy department. 

You have plenty of rail space for all of your favorite optics and attachments, and the folding buttstock allows you to store and transport it easily. 

This is one of those guns that delivers everything for everybody: stopping power, functionality, and looks. 

Barrett MRADELR

If long-distance and precision shooting is your thing, you can’t go wrong with the Barrett Firearms. Most people probably would have picked the M107A1, but the MRADELR has me hooked.

Even if you have the type of range where you could let the MRADELR stretch its legs, you’ll need roughly $10,000 to pick one up. That’s quite the heavy price tag, and it’s without any ammo or accessories!

The MRADELR is chambered in .416 Barrett but features a user-changeable barrel system that only requires the use of one tool. With a match-grade, single-point cut, hand-lapped stainless steel barrel, and an adjustable single-stage trigger, you’ll be able to accurately engage targets more than a mile away…if you have the skills that is. 

You’ll also find a 60° bolt throw for quick cycling, a very customizable buttstock, and an electroless nickel-plated bolt head that all work together to deliver a reliable and accurate competitor.

Beretta DT11 Sporting

You’re going to really have to like shotguns to justify pulling the trigger on a $13,000 Beretta DT11 Sporting. The DT11 is the top-of-the-line clay competition series from Beretta that spares no expense in an effort to provide the world’s best shooters with the tools they need to win.  

Its center mass is designed to be low and coaxial with the bottom barrel, which gives shooters a phenomenal level of stability. Pairing that with its Steelium-Pro barrel and vault-tough cross-bolt action gives you the accuracy and durability to win many competitions to come.

Even the ergonomics have been paid special attention to where the top lever and the shape of the safety selector have been redesigned for a better grip and smoother operation. Beretta really thought of it all.

Marlin Model 336 Dark Series

I’m not normally a huge lever action fan, but something about the Dark Series from Marlin makes me second-guess that. 

With a very modern and tactical take on the classic Marlin, it appeals to a much wider crowd that’s used to its AR-15s and AR-10s. Thankfully, this is the most affordable on the list, where only $1,500 or so should land one of these in your safe. Still somewhat pricey, though, for a lever-action rifle.

This rifle features a threaded barrel with a factory-installed radial muzzle brake, a fiber optic front sight, and a nice recoil pad/cheek riser combination. 

Thanks to the M-LOK handguard, a Picatinny rail, and the nylon-reinforced polymer stock with additional M-LOK slots, you’ll be able to attach all of your favorite accessories. 

For a tactical look with a classic feel, this is the perfect gun. 

Are They Worth It?

Who are we to answer that when it’s your money?! Different people have different ideas of what’s worthy of their hard-earned money. But, if you deem firearms worthy of it, these are some amazing options to consider. 

As always, stay safe, train hard, and have fun.
