My primary focus is going to be on ammunition and magazines.

9mm, .380 Auto, .22 LR, and .223 mostly. I have a lot of reloading material for .223 and some for 9mm, but I'm virtually empty on .380. If I get a little .45 ACP that'd be good too.

XD 9mm magazines - standard capacity and reduced capacity. I just want more of these since this is my primary handgun for everything but carrying concealed.

I want to get my Mosquito a spare mag or 2, but the cost of them keeps me from buying them up much.

If I can run into some AR mags at old prices, I'd consider scooping some of them up as an investment.

It's my understanding that the current wait is about 18months.

The GCI that I'm expecting this week, is it for this year for me! :mrgreen:


Thanks!

I've talked w/ Squib Joe about ordering one. I may do that this year - we're going to buy a new house, so we'll see

You never know what might pop up here. 1911addicts.com
A guy traded a Pro for a GCI last week. He had the Pro about two weeks.
It will probably pop up for sale soon.

A 22LR handgun for sure...not positive what type yet.
Glock 19 is very likely.
Kahr CW9 isn't out of the question.
1911 might hook me once I try one.
When (fingers crossed) there isn't a ban and the craziness stops, an AR is likely.
Lots of practice ammo.

i'd still like to add a CZ 75B SP-01 to my arsenal.
still gotta get another bolt gun, going for a 7mm Rem Mag Stainless that's already in a quality stock or adding a HS sporter stock (maybe a Bell and Carlson) and getting some decent glass for it.
also trying to collect the rest of the parts necessary to build my SBR (which will probably just be a pistol until i get the stamp)

Something slightly smaller than my XDm 3.8 compact for daily carry. Thinking XDs when it's available in 9mm.

It's a Ruger 1911 that they presented in 2011.
It has received excellent reviews and most shops can't keep them in stock.
I bought mine for $647.00 from Marv at The Frontiersman.

A couple of things that I really like about it, are that it doesn't have front cocking serrations, or an external extractor.
The lines and look of it are very clean. I personally require that in a 1911.

6 15rd mags for my P226
6 30rd mags for my ar15
Henry LA 22
wouldnt mind a .308 but it would have to be a nice wooden stock, none of that plastic gibberish
1911 - no idea what but probably a Sig since thats what the rest of my pistols are
wouldnt mind a p220 45 either

Picking up a XDs on Saturday to replace my XD 9mm sub compact.

Want:
Tactical 12 gauge (Mossberg 590?)
Large revolver (.44 Magnum or so)
Any AR (insert sad face)
Judge (for some .410 love)

Ammo, a bunch of ammo

My list:

1) Finish my AR build (need buttstock, BCG and charging handle) - thought I had them coming, but CDNN cancelled my order, and they're currently out of stock on all AR parts
2) Bolt action 7mm-08 - currently leaning toward a Tikka T3 lite, but may consider a Winchester 70 Ultimate Shadow if I can find one for the right price
3) A new carry pistol - Kahr 9mm?
4) A youth-size shotgun so my girlfriend can start shooting trap with me in the summer - currently thinking about the CZ 720, but need to take her to Cabela's or Ahlmann's to see what she likes


Of course, to make room for everything, I'll probably have to sell a few things out of my current inventory. Guess I'll have to take some pictures this weekend and get them posted up in the marketplace.

Im a man of simple tastes.

Finish my AR build- just need my BCG
Get my PTC and a Glock 30 or 36 to go with it.

Once those things are taken care of then there are a couple other things I'd like to try for.

My first Mosin Nagant
A decent hunting rifle, maybe a Remington 783?
and finally some sort of .22lr
