Well as the proud owner of an AR-10 and a Smith 1006, I commend you on both of those choices!! I too would like a 610 to compliment the 1006. 10mm's rule.

[pastorpaul]

maybe an m1a and a k-80 or perrazi.

I don't make new years resolutions, but:
Thinking about a light bolt action in something 7mm or .30 cal.
My 2 varmint rifles are heavy barreled (not counting the AR), so a sporter weight .223 or .204 is under consideration.
I think everyone should have a .357 mag, and I don't. A J frame with a 4" barrel would be cool, but no one makes one. Probably go with a security 6 or a GP100 if I find the right deal.
I'd pick up a lever rifle in .357 or .44 mag if I came across the right deal just because.
Something that's practical to carry concealed other than my P3at. Probably 9mmish. Maybe a 709 slim. Don't know what I was thinking picking up a Glock 17 as a carry piece.

Well I finally picked up a Garand, I guess I need a 1911 to go along with it.
I also want a ruger MK III Hunter and possibly a G26. Last but not least a PTR-91.
I'll be lucky if I get one of those next year.

Thinking on a Raging Judge 6", S&W 625, and a bolt action 308 of some sort.

Of course whatever old gem that shows up may also be a victim!

For me-
Nice O/U for birds and shooting games
Quality glass for the 700P

For Jackson-
Quality 1911 in a 45acp (probably gonna sell the Springer 9mm)

For Sam-
Lefty varmint rig
T/C Encore pistol for deer

No rush on anything. Probably need to sell some extras as I'm supposed to be saving for kids edumacayshuns and new guns are discretionary spending..............

[Rotary12]

I'm salivating for an Uberti 1873 in .44-40.

[JustinPo]

M1a
1911 of some kind (ya know since its the anniversary next year and all)
M&P 45c

[Holland&Holland]

Glass will be next on my list.

After that maybe add a 3" 1911 to the carry options, a Mini-14 in 6.8, or a slide action .357 just because...

[RAGGED]

I will likely only be adding one new child to the family this next year.

I would like to build my first rifle this year, and when I say build I don't just mean pick out the combo of parts and assemble. I want to engineer and fabricate a state of the art long range competition rifle with some never before seen features (for its class) in hopes of it being successful in 1000 yard F-Class. The overall idea is the bring as much IBS heavy gun ideas (200lb rifles) into the F-class arena (22lb rifle). Wherever possible components will have to be carbon fiber and any aluminum components will have to be put on a harsh diet, this means removing ever last spec of material that I can without compromising the structural integrity of the assembly. It's a good thing I got some awesome software at my disposal, Solidworks, ProE and a full FEA package. So far it’s looking like it will be a 284 WIN wildcat, probably a 284 Shehane, likely a 32” 1.45” diameter Brux barrel screwed into an octagonal BAT 3 lug action, Kelblys BR trigger group and my current 12-42 Nightforce NXS.

VERY early look at the project, it could completely change before I get ready to start building it, and clearly this is in an 75% done state. I don't have a trigger group or action in hand so I put place holders in there for now, as far as the CAD gos the assigned weights of the components are correct so I can still predict the final weight accurately but the actual dimensions will change once I get components in hand.

I'm resolving to finally get some kind of full-auto C&R gun. A Carl Gustav "Swedish K" is at the top of my list, although I'll settle for something similar if it's easier to find.

[FJ540]

I'm resolving to buy more after my recent acquisitions have been paid off. So it looks like January is when the next addition should come along.
