I just completed my first purchase... and my 2nd too! Picked up a Bersa Thunder 380 in duotone and Kel Tec P3at today. Will be wandering off to the range later today.

Either an Ak. or a PPK for my wife.
I bought a gun and put it on layaway like 2 days before new years and will pick it up Thur. So does that count as my first gun of 2004?
 
Leaning toward a CZ97b in glossy blue.
If my marlin .41 mag carbine ever comes in.....
Maybe the right 10mm, 1911, or classic S&W revolver, maybe in .41 magnum...
 
Also my first 1911. Hopefully a Kimber tactical pro II. But finances may leave me with an entry level 1911. I have been looking at the Armscor branded ones.
 
My first for the year was another 3 inch S&W 657 (41 magnum).Other purchases planned for this year are more S&W 41 magnum guns,another 3 inch S&W 625,another S&W 45 ACP Mountain Gun and finally a Marlin 1894 in 41 magnum.
 
My First purchase of the year is the CZ 40B on sale at CDNN for $250. I wasn't actually planning on it but I couldn't pass up that price any longer. I bought it for the same reason I've bought most of my guns, bang for the buck. I'm irresistibly attracted to the guns I consider good quality but undervalued. Not necessarily best of breed but best value.

First one was on the 10th. A S&W Model 14-3, 38 Spl, 1975 vintage, 6" barrel. A little wear at the muzzle, the blue still in the cylinder throats. Nice and tight. Shot it yesterday for the first time . . . WOW! $239 out the door!
 
Looks like it's gonna be a Kahr P9 and a CZ 75 D PCR. The police lost my permit purchase paperwork again (3rd time) so they just sit there at the shop while I pretend that I'm a free people.
 
I got myself a FEG PJK-9HP (Hi Power Clone) I had a hard time finding one that someone would ship to California, but luckily I was able to get one for $260 OTD before the model expired off of the CA approved list.

<Sarcasm>Apparently, they all be come unsafe on Jan 17th, so be careful!</Sarcasm>
 
I got "tired" of waiting for one, or the other, members of the forum to post a range report, so I ordered my own R9-S. Now, I have to wait until the end of March before delivery. When it arrives, I'll shoot it right away and pass it around to my range friends, then I'll post a report.:)
 
Taurus PT111 Millennium is my first purchase of the year. My buddy bought one from the same shop, with a three digit different serial number, we put 3000 rounds through in one weekend, it was flawless, so I gave in and took the leap, I hope mine is as reliable as his!
 
I purchased a CZ P-01 already, but haven't been out to shoot it yet. For my next purchase I'm thinking of one of the Argentinian Detective Hi Powers.
 
I'm picking up my first one of the year tomorrow - a Sig P220ST.
Nice way to start the year! I'd say the 220ST is about as close to perfect as a gun can be. Enjoy -
 
Springfield Armory Mil-Spec .45. Picked one up a couple of weeks ago, and bought another one a couple days ago. Slick as grease on teflon.
Be Safe


SILENT ONE
 
Picked up a Taurus M83 .38 Spl in blue today to match my stainless M83 - couldn't help myself.....:) :) :)
