O.K., now that the debacle of November 7th has set in and we brace for Pelosi and company and the Columbine reduxes that will appear this Spring, how are we doing on our purchases?

That's the spirit, Mr. Poker!
Quite unexpectedly, I recently found a NIB chicom SKS that I just could not feel good about turning down. Otherwise, selling seems to be my bag at the moment actually. Buy low, sell high, make hay while the sun shines, etc.
Haven't yet decided what the proceeds from ammo sales will procure. Got a couple MN 91/59's that will soon be hitting the road in all likelyhood. Probably use the proceeds from them to fund a couple AR lowers.

675 .50bmg 700 gr. AP bullets Needed that anyhow. going to buy .50 primers, and a lot of 5010.
If I find a few more hi-caps at the gun show this weekend at a decent price I will buy if not more money for the .50 game.
other then that not much.
I figure we have 2 more years, THEN hell will set in. Untill then the waters will be calm, just higher prices cause people are freaking.
JOIN THE NRA OR SOMETHING!!!!!!

I bought a small pile of the "LE Only" Ruger factory Mini-14 mags thinking that I would be kicking myself if I didnt get them at $29 when they were available.
Let's just hope that we don't see another "ban", because the next one might not sunset.

Got my FAL reciever ordered, but it won't be in till mid- January so I am keeping my fingers crossed.

Thinking about doing a deal on a half dozen AK's. I figure 10+ round pistol mags, .50 BMG rifles and AK-lookalike rifles will be the first things on the gummint hit list.

I might as well play since I started this:
Magazines: big huge cardboard boxes of AR, AK (47 and 74), G3, FAL, M14 and Glock(17 and 21) mags. Every Friday I order more. My storage tubs in my armory are overflowing. Just need more.
Ammo: Have been lax here. Have ordered case of 7.62x54R sniper grade ammo and two cases of 5.45 Russian. Shipping costs mean I'll buy ammo at the next couple shows in January.
Firearms: Have 3 new AK-47 underfolders (don't like them but will need them for trading stock after AWBII), an AK-74 (Romanian, it was a deal)I purchased and am reworking, a few milsurps (Indian Enfields and Czech 8mm) for planting, a few stripped AR lowers and am waiting on the 9mm AR lowers, bought a NIB standard M1A that someone did not want (he ordered the tacticool version), ordered another DSA Austrian FAL (not come yet), a Remington 572 (I like them), a Smith 686 and 37 (police guns, never shot, good deals).
Waiting for my Browning T-Bolt (found one in Texas, still not here) and my XCRs.
Want a couple of more M14s, a PTR-91 or two, a .458 SOCOM upper, more stripped AR lowers and need a single shot .50USMG, probably an M99 and maybe a fully built RRA 9mm that that's just for fun.

Magazines, mostly.
Reloading stuff.
Got my eye on a Beta mag.

Fully realizing the disaster that has befallen us, and looking forward to the legislation that will probably be proposed, the Old Fuff as acted with dispatch and obtained:
1. A Smith & Wesson .38 DA (top break) 5th model (likely made in 1908)
2. A Smith & Wesson .38 Safety Hammerless (‘nother top break) from turn of the 20th century.
3. A Colt .32 Police Positive, 4” with (some ) blue, pieces of the original stocks are left, (likely made during the 1920’s)
Did I do good…???

Good job, Old, you are all set for the coming Museum Ban.

I'm not buying anything. I've been represented by Barbara Boxer and Dianne Feinstein for many years now. I doubt anything they do next year will be new to me.

Picked up a new EBR - a Colt 6920 M4gery. Actually, the transaction was already in process before the election, but my original intent was to sell my HB 16" A2 Bushy to partially offset the cost of the new rifle. Now I'll probably hold on to the Bushmaster, and maybe fit it with a new, longer, flattop upper and scope. The Colt will be my CQB go-to gun, with the Bushy reservered for longer range "varmint" work.
I will be picking up some more 30 round mags just on GPs (and to support my now two-AR stable).
Anybody gotten any of the new Brownells AR mags? Opinions?
Oh, and you can't have too much ammo, right?

Nov. 15 after the election I bought a Bushmaster M4orgery with 16" barrel, detachable carry handle/rear sight, and 4 extra 30 rnd mags and one 20 rnd, and 100 rnds of 5.56mm. Have since purchased an additional 600 rnds of 5.56mm.
This saturday I plan to attend a gunshow. Purchasing another gun will be VERY unlikely but I will be looking for more stuff for the Bushie, even if it's only magazines or ammo.

Picked up 9 AR mags in a recent group buy. Planning on grabbing two new stripped lowers this year and some two more cases of ammo.
I'd love to find a place that sells cheap MecGar OEM mags for my CZ75B. Everything I'm seeing is $25 or better and that sucks.

I have a "few" AR lowers on order...one most certainly for an SBR.

I've obtained more magazines for my Arsenal SA M5 and Ruger Mini-14. I actually traded off one EBR -- my Century G3 clone, in favor of a 50th Anniversary Ruger Blackhawk .357. Damn good trade, too.
Don't worry, my gun closet is still overflowing with milsurps and semiautos ranging from a Marlin Camp .45 to a couple of M1 Carbines, a couple AKs, a couple SKSes and a FAL.
I need more Mec-Gar mags for my Browning High Power.
I'm not sure what I gun want to pick up next, a police trade-in Mini-14GB or a Marlin 336. Next bottom feeder might be a Ruger P-89.
