This is an even better self-defense handgun, thanks to its snub-nosed barrel and overall small size.

Chambered for 38 special rounds, it’s great for close-range accuracy and stopping power and features a five-round revolving design.

Pros:

  • Old-fashioned look and feel
  • Great as a concealed carry weapon or self-defense gun
  • Very easy to use
  • Enclosed hammer to reduce snags
  • Finished stainless steel to reduce corrosion damage

This is another affordable rifle that’s ideal for bolt action hunting rifle fans.

It’s not especially fancy, but it does include a rotary magazine, a rifled barrel for additional accuracy, and a Weaver-style rail for additional scope attachments.

You also get to select what you want the rifle to be chambered for, so pick your favorite cartridge from all the staples like 6.5 Creedmoor, 22.3 Remington or .308 Winchester (and more).

You can additionally purchase a scope with the rifle for an extra hundred bucks.

Pros:

  • Can be purchased with the scope
  • Features excellent design and built
  • Good accuracy at range
  • Multiple chambering options
  • Comfortable stock

Cons:

  • Not the most durable rifle you can find

So these are the top-notch budget guns you can get your hands on this year. The decision boils down to what type of gun you want to own and what you need it for. Make sure to do your homework before making a purchase, too.
