9mm ammo.

I long for the day when finding 3 boxes of ammo at Wal Mart for Sunday shooting is a normal occurrence and not equal to finding the damn leprechaun's pot at the end of the rainbow.
 
A lot more ammo (not that I am in danger of running out).
Build a couple more ARs.
Another 1911.
Generally just add to the collection.
 
I will start buying ammo on a regular basis, especially .22. Then, components for reloading. As for guns, I want a Gen 4 G20 and an AR of some sort. Preferably an SR556. And a standard type AR as well.
 
A decent bolt rifle- maybe a rem700 tactical AAC in .308, or maybe a nice tikka, and plenty of reloading supplies in whichever caliber I choose.

Most likely just a revolver that I can reload tons of ammo for- probably a 4.2" SP101. I'll probably try to special order one from my LGS if they aren't too busy. And perhaps the sizing dies, mould blocks and other necessary supplies for cast bullets (for .38 spl).

Or maybe a full-size 9mm that would work well with a suppressor.

Nothing in particular other than those.
 
Still would like that stainless 4 5/8" Vaquero. That's the only thing out there that's really calling my name.

Kind of wanted a mouse gun too, but that fever is subsiding.

I can definitely get by without either one.



Freely available .22lr (and to a lesser extent, .38 special) would be my biggest wish. This whole panic, frenzy or whatever you want to call it has actually sucked most of the joy out of this hobby for me, at least for the time being. The flippers, gougers, a lot of paranoia, etc... it all has left a bad taste in my mouth. And I have ammo I could shoot, so it's not just sour grapes on account of that either. Anyway, hope it all gets back to normal sooner rather than later.
 
3,000 rds of .22LR
2,000 rds of .223
2,000 rds of .45
2,000 rds of 9mm

other than that: 2 x 30rd Pmags and maybe down the road a "cheap" AR15 at pre-crazy prices (something for around $800) which I would store and keep on hand if I need to swap out parts of my nice Colt M4.
 
I'm going to buy an AR lower and all the necessary parts to complete my .300 Blackout project (the barrel came in the mail today). And I'm going to buy...maybe one or two...more mags in advance of the Colorado "Hi! My Name Is Governor Hickenstoopid!" 1 July deadline.

And I totally hope to someday find some .458 SOCOM ammo so we can finish that test!!!

About 15 lbs. of powder, 15K of bullets, and about 25 bricks of .22's..... if I can find the .22's! OH, and about 30K of different size primers each!
 
Ammo. Lots and lots of ammo. And an AR-10. Never had much interest in black rifles, especially in .223. But after today's vote? I'm buying one to celebrate.
 
MK75:
If you manage to scrape up some cash, buying a money order or cashier's check leave no record at home, unless you misplace the receipt
(they fit in ammo cans).

A friend's address can be used to ship ammo (in may states) or reloading equipment.
My wife suspected that I shipped bulk ammo to a friend's house, but knew that we could afford it.
It helped to prepare for the present ammo situation, which should cool off a bit as news from the Senate gradually manages to penetrate some hard heads.
