    It's fall - moving into the Holiday season...

    Time for another Wish List thread! WooHoo!

    Not just any ol' wish list though - how about stuff that you actually have a shot at locating/affording/buying?

    Sure - I'd like an MP5... But that isn't going to happen. So - it's not on the wish list.

    Mine:


    Handguns -
    S&W M&P 22 MSRP ~ $400
    Dan Wesson Guardian 9mm MSRP ~ $1550
    9mm AR w/ Sig arm brace ~ $1500 all said and done, I'd imagine - I'd be buying parts piece-meal and building. Do want a 9mm dedicated upper, but will entertain thoughts of using a mag block.

    Rifles -
    Winchester Model 1892 Short in .357 Mag MSRP ~ $1070
    Browning BL-22 Grade I MSRP ~ $620

    Others -
    9mm Suppressor ~$500-ish + $200 Excise Tax Stamp

    Approximately $4140 + Indiana Sales Tax = $4430 + $200 Tax Stamp for a Grand Total of $4630 worth of stuff.


    I'd say that's a rather modest wish list!

    suppressors in .22, 9mm, 556, and 308 - They been on my list for 3 years now, don't know why I haven't just bit the bullet and done it.

    Why rule out the MP5? At $4600, you are in HK 94 territory. Full auto, real mp5, it's just a dream at this point, but I'll settle for a sbr clone.

    My realistic wish list-

    1. Ruger SR1911 CMD ~$650
    2. S&W M&P 15 sport (dont have time to build an AR from scratch despite my desire to) ~$650
    3. Remington 870 Marine Magnum 12 ga ~$650
    4. MP5 clone with sig brace (cant afford a real MP5) I would get the Vector Arms or POF-5 clone ~$1500
    5. Unlimited ammo for all of my firearms (Santa can do anything, right?) ~ $inifinite

    Try as I may I got nothing right now. Safe (both) are full of cool toys. Not saying I do not get excited about new to me guns just saying it is a lull in the addictive storm.

    Maybe a Les Baer or a Black Hawk.

    As long as you're after a blackhawk, why not just go for an Apache? Or at least a Pave Hawk? But I like the way you think.

    My immediate goal is working to buy back one of my Kimbers that I had sold a few years ago and have regretted ever since. Also on my list (hopefully within a year) is a Marlin or Winchester lever action .44 mag, with of course the big loop!

    Nothing really planned for the must have list. YET!
    Will probably SBR a couple of 9mm's
    I will continue to try and steer clear of an M1A1 Scout.

    Oh, the must have I almost forgot about, HK 416 .22! Thanks CM!

    My wish list in the order it is likely to be fulfilled.

    Hex Receiver Mosin Nagant
    M&P 9mm FS w/ Apex trigger
    My first AR-15*
    AR-10*

    *I'd like to build both of these myself but these things take time and money, two things I don't have enough of right now.

    Short term (next few months):
    New stock for my AR (Ace skeleton, Magpul UBR or fixed carbine... so many choices...)
    Get my M&P stippled or fix the grip tape that's peeling...
    Whatever I need to refine my 3-gun belt rig

    Long term (next year or so):
    Semi auto shotgun tricked out for 3-gun (Benelli M2 or Stoeger M3000 for sure)
    Dillon reloading set up for 9mm & .223
    A 1911
    Limited gun (want a 2011 but may start with a 5" M&P Pro)

    I keep trying to tell you I had zero to do with that. At least this time anyway. It was Manny....all the way.
