    The "What have you bought in 2006" Thread

    If you're down to share, I think it would be interesting to see what people have bought this year, especially with all the off-list craze going on. I know I've certainly changed gears in picking up far more long guns than hand guns. It's actually quite painful to tally up what the damage to my bank account has been.

      ------For 2006--------

      (6x) Offllist lowers
      (3x) sig p225's
      (1x) HK p7m8

      + a bunch of AR stuff..KAC Ras, M3 Aimpoint..etc etc..

      ------Future Plans----------

      FN FiveSeveN
      sig p228
      sig p220

      LMT MRP Upper...

      maybe a FN PS90.....
      maybe the new Sig Rifle..550ish?


      In all honesty, I'll probably end up getting just the FN Five-Seven and the Sig 228... the rest of that stuff isnt that big a deal to me... and then i'll be done buying guns forever....

          * My HS lower
          * some ammo

          I was thinking of picking up one of the High Standard 1911 models. They seem decent. I'm also thinking about a .357 too. Maybe a .38. Maybe both, who knows.
          Nothing wrong with having a little firearm variety, eh?

                Got 2nd batch of 2 off-list Stags in January in San Leandro (got my first two at end of December after a drive to Taft )

                Picked up a Ruger Red Label 26" 12GA (_nice_ balance). Used but minty.
                Picked up a discontinued Beretta AL391 at a blowout price 2 wks ago cuz I couldn't resist a gun with a chrome-lined barrel.

                Upcoming items being debated depending on temptation level vs household needs (water softener install, bathroom update, etc.).....
                • Ruger Alaskan in 454;
                • new Ruger 50th Anniv. Blackhawk in 44Mag;
                • S&W 327TRR (definite... but if/when CA approved);
                • Marlin stainless 45/70 "Guide Gun";

                    glad to see we aren't neglecting the "other toys" in favor of just off-lists. i wait in anticipation for Mr. Rambo's list of goodies.

                      This list is since Jan 1st...

                      For me:
                      9 of my 10 AR lowers (first one was just barely in Dec)
                      My 6 AK and 4 RPK receivers

                      Three AR uppers (Stag limited 14.5" M4gery, Armalite NM barrel, V-22 upper)
                      One Romy AK kit (have a second one lying around from earlier)
                      One Romy RPK kit

                      Backordered:
                      1 PTR-91 rifle
                      2 MGI lowers

                      Will order when I can:
                      NDS Underfolder receivers, more Romanian RPK receivers.

                      Tools for the AK/RPK builds:
                      12-ton shop press
                      12-speed drill press
                      Craploads of hand tools, hammers, files, drill bits, etc.
                      1 18" diameter chunk of steel to mount my vise on.
                      Go/No-Go gauges
                      250lb magnet (grabs metal shavings out of the carpet)

                      Financed through me:
                      2 AR lowers, 2 AK receivers, and 2 AR uppers for friend 'C'
                      2 AR lowers for friend 'B'
                      1 AR lower for friend 'N'
                      1 AR lower and 1 AK receiver for girlfriend.
                      1 AK receiver for friend 'G'

                      What can I say... I don't like to hear "But I can't afford it" when I give the off-list pitch to my friends. I know they're good for it, sooner or later.

                      Would like to find a legal off-list source for:
                      Dragunov receivers
                      Uzi receivers (yeah, right, I wish...)
                      RPD receivers (can find 'em easily as mod projects on 80%'s, but need 100% for Harrott)

                        Now I know where the money is. I was wondering why I didn't have any.

                        I got

                        an off list lower
                        a S&W627pc
                        Misc parts like new sites for my Glock and moonclips for the 627.

                        I don't think I will be building up an AR-15 until late next year.
