It's rare for me to bring home guns. It seems I can barely find time to shoot what I have...why add to the misery? So, after several dry years, there are three new residents in my safe. First was a Savage, mod. 72, .22 single shot.Then my Dad gave me his 1903 Springfield .30-06. (glad to see that come to my house). Last was a 303 Enfield. I can't put the Benelli Nova on my "05 list because I bought it from my cousin on Dec. 29, '04. Very hard for me to believe I've added that many...I'm surprised Sheila hasn't choked

glad you enjoy your stainless springfield GI. mine was an utter piece of crap out of the box, and I am not much of a tinkerer... go figure my P-32 has never misse d a shot out of my hands... sold it to someone else who was interested it tweaking it to make it work. my first 1911.... I am sure I will own another sometime but unfortunately my factory spec firearm couldnt go through a box o ammo without a few stovepipes. it was pretty though.
I fall into the somewhat compulsive buyer catagory. Fortunatly my better half doesn't mind how many guns I buy. My record keeping leavs a lot to be desired so I will have to guess at about 8 - 12 long guns. Pistols usually beat long guns by a 2-3:1 margin so I guess that adds up to a lot.
I did run my local dealer out of multiple handgun purchase forms.
I've been having to pick them up one a week.

Oh boy, what have I bought? This is a tough question, because I've bought/sold/traded so many over the last 10 months.
I distinctly remember getting the following since January '05:
S/A M1A Scout (sold it)
Colt MT6400c post-ban M4gery
LFT-15 (custom made AR-15 lower)
Rem 870 AOW
Para-Ord Colonel
Taurus 85 (sold it)
Sig 226 9mm (sold it)
P22 (sold it)
NEF Youth .22lr
I've also been spending quite a bit of money on accessories, such as:
Surefire 618FA foreend for my 870P
Surefire M900A for my AR
DPMS 11.5" upper for my AR
EOTech 551 A65
.22 lr suppressor from ETS, Inc.
.223 suppressor from ETS, Inc. (serial number and model to match my custom lower)
several NFA tax stamps
I think I bought several others back towards the beginning ot the year, but I got rid of a lot of guns this year. Like Preacherman, I've been thinning out the herd, getting rid of things I don't shoot and keeping ones I'll actually get the chance to shoot.

Only one
A Bulgarian Makarov.
I have added reloading equipment to my household this year so that is keeping me busy.
Looking to add a revolver for my wife and a .22 rifle for my self.
