I was just wondering how you're ending the year...
1. Did you buy too much so far & have to cool things off?
2. One more to end the year on a high note?
3. More than one more before the end of the year to end it on a really high note?
:cool:
 
I'm aiming to get a Kel-Tec to go with my wife's incoming permit.
I want a .22 target gun.
I need a reloading setup.
I'd like a Sig 239.

I feel that most of that will happen in the new year after I sell our other house though.
 
The only thing left on my list for this year is an AK.

The rest of my collection is right where I want it to be. It's that final addition that is frustrating me. I only want to spend 400$, but the options outside of that are making it hard to decide.

I think I'm OK for next year too... maybe an M1 if I buy something new. I'm seeing a trade in my future as well. I'm going to focus next year on improving what I have instead of buying more... more optics and a reloading effort perhaps.

I would have to really nitpick to justify spending more on new additions next year. Maybe a K31 but that's not much in the way of money. I expect ammo to outweigh purchases next year for sure.
 
I think the only thing I'm gonna spend money on for the rest of the year is more ammo! (I need to shoot the guns I already have!)
 
Hoping for a Springfield XD compact in .40cal but may wait until they do the new extended mag package like they just rolled out in 45acp.

Also there will be a new shotgun just have not found the right one (open to suggestions) I need it to be a black synthetic stock, pump action, 12gauge and have a long enough barrell for skeet. Also the option of a slug barrel would be nice.
 
As soon as Sig starts cranking out their 556's and the twenty six people in line ahead of me at my dealer get one, I will have one, HOPEFULLY by the end of this year
 
What am I gonna get before the end of the year? A baby! :uhoh: So no more guns this year,I barely squeezed a Taurus PT1911 and a case of PMC in there. My next big gun-related purchase needs to be a good safe anyway.

I want a lot of things.

I can afford very little.

I will probably get nothing.

My sentiments exactly. Sigh. Oh well, maybe next year! :)
Best I can hope for is a couple cigars.
 
Marlin! Marlin! Marlin! . . .

If we find ourselves rich and famous, there are visions of sugarplums dancing downrange of a 1894C in .357 with checkered walnut furniture.

If we find ourselves poor and destitute, I'll be standing on a street corner with a large cardboard sign:
* * * * * * * * * * * *
* WILL WORK FOR
* MARLIN 1894C,
* PLAIN STOCK
* * * * * * * * * * * *
 
If all goes well, I'll have a new TRP by the end of this week. That will most likely be it for this year.
 
Well, I just ordered my SKS. That will probably be it for this year. Gotta hunker down and do right for at least the last couple of months (Oh yeah, I also just got another 960 rounds of .30-06 from CMP. I am going to try to hold off on another 1k of .308, but if a deal comes along...)
 
Hopefully, some IMR 4895 and maybe some lighter slugs for makin' Garand ammo.

I've ordered it, but since they're currently running about three to four months on backorder at CMP, my new (to me) "real" Garand won't be here until probably January or February. hyper.gif
 
I'm definitely getting a Biathlon Basic for Birthday/Christmas. I've already got the scope and rings, just need to pick up the rifle.

If my CCW comes through (they said 3 weeks, it's been 2 months so far) I may do some trading to end up with a Keltec PT11 or P9, or maybe a P3AT. Anyway, I'll probably sell or trade a milsurp if I go that route.

I hope to find the new Kel Tec 9mm pistol.

Next gun show I want to stock up on reloading components. If the Democrats make some inroads today I'll stock up on a LOT of reloading components.

I've been thinking about getting a better pistol scope for my Kel Tec PLRs.
