I weeded out my gun collection last year some to make room in the safe(s) for things I want. Unfortunately, I was laid off in June so things slowed down for a while. I'm back to work thankfully, but had to take a significant pay cut and have to get caught up on things and rebuild our savings account first!
But luckily, the future is looking bright and here is what's on my "2014-2015" list
My list includes:
- CMP M1A (or maybe a nice SA version)
- FN FAL
- S&W 460XCR 8"
- 4" S&W M686 (to compliment my 2.5" and 6" gun)
- 16-ga and 20-ga J. Steven's SxS (to compliment my 12-gauge)
- AR10 for "He-Man" division
- finish my 870 build (also for He-Man division)
- Mossberg 590A1 with bead site and threaded for chokes (I had a 590A1 but with ghost rings and sold it to a buddy)
- something purdy in 28-gauge and preferably Italian made
- Remington 700 Sendero II in 7mm Mag (every time I take out my classic, 1962-mfg'd M700 BDL I regret it... I need something I can beat up in 7mm Mag)
- lever gun in 44-Mag and maybe one in 45-70.
I also want to wrap up some projects:
- laminate stock on my Model Seven in 300 SAUM and bed the action
- Cerakote my M700 varmint 243 to match the stock (coyote tan)
- build my F-Class Open gun (I have a Tac-30 action, just need to get a barrel and cutter in 6mm BR).
