    You probably should plan to spend more then twice what the gun is worth. Ammo to train, ammo to have, extra mag or two.

      At least: I’m probably at 5x what the guns cost in training, ammo, gear, range fees, gas to and from the range (live in a city, so most local ranges don’t exactly let you shoot 5.56) and so on.

      Not the cheapest hobby if you’re planning on actually serious about being able to use your guns if something makes that necessary.
