I resolve to get a _____ in 2012

Postby bstrawse on Mon Jan 02, 2012 8:19 am

I did this thread last year and thought would see what everyone was after this year.

Here's what I had posted last year and what I acquired. And my list of what I'm after in 2012.

For 2011, here's what I want:
- Colt Python (Nope)
- 2nd Safe (not needed, yet)
- Colt Detective Special .38 (acquired)
- .308 Rifle (PTR-91, love it)
- Decent AR (still no luck)
- Baby Glock (Gen 3 27 acquired)
- HK94 (nope)

My 2012 Wish List:
- Springfield Professional 1911
- Gen 4 Glocks in 9mm (have 2/3 on order already ;)
- Noveske AR - SBR length
- H94
- Colt Python

Remington 81 Woodsmaster in .35 Remington (Won on Gun Broker and picked up Saturday!) Ok that was still 2011 but it was for my 1st 2012 purchase, just found one in perfect shape faster than I thought.

On a moretorum for awhile, went a bit wild at eh end of 2011.

S & W 686 revolver so I can expand my IDPA experience. Guess a set of Lee dies will follow that purchace along with the never ending quest for the perfect .38 load.

May I assume you're not here to inquire about the alcohol or the tobacco?

I'm more of an opportunity collector than a planner, but I'm hoping to run into a minty AR180 (not the new AR180B), an all-correct WWII Garand, and an early, correct, and nice-condition P38. Other than that, there are dozens more that are on the "get it when I run across it" list. Oh, and I really want to get a nice, original scope for my Japanese T97.

M1A, and a yet to be determined trap gun (leaning toward a BT99). Spartan, you should buy my STG58 to help me raise funds for my 2012 guns, lets get our resolutions going early!

CZ 75 SP-01 (maybe shadow, not sure)
Beretta M9 (not the 92, the M9 edition one)
AR-15 with a 18" bbl and 1/8 twist in 5.56 NATO (eyeing the Stag Arms 3G with dirty thoughts and bad intentions)
Colt LW Commander series 70
Ruger SR1911
S&W model 327 Night Guard (i'm a glutton for punishment)
Ruger Super Blackhawk with 7" or longer bbl for hunting
AND
Remington 870 Deer gun with nice wood
Benelli M4
CZ Redhead o/u



and i play with most of these guns at work, which sucks. i can't bring em home as easily as opening the case!


*** edit ***
i'm going to try to get a couple of these things. there's no way in hell i can afford ALL of 'em. not if i plan on paying my mortgage too

AR-15 upper with 20"+ barrel for varmints
SMLE MarK 1 (pre No 1, Mark III without the charger bridge)
