What Is On Your 2012 I Want List?
Mine consists of two sporting good related accomplishments for 2012.
1. Completing the changeover to all vintage Woolrich and Filson hunting wear.
2. Buying a “vintage” Randall hunting knife. (Still researching the model I want)

A better job?
My own Gun Manufacturing shop?
How about an HK 91 or CETME.
Barring that, an FPK/PSL.

This is a big one for me too ----Griff wrote:The time (& money) to do the projects I already have!
I am in the middle of building a house -- once it is done, the wife wants new furniture for several rooms (I dont blame her there)
--- that means i am going to have to allocate my "toy funds" in the order of greatest need --
sadly - i don't really need anything. Except a 7.5" barrel New Frontier in .45 Colt -- i need one of those
But in addition to the passel of old leverguns i always want to add to the safe, i am currently angling to buy an Ar 50 locally that has come up for sale at a decent price -- it is kind of a "strike while the iron is hot" type of deal , but under the circumstances , it may be the only thing i add this coming year (most people would say that that would be quite enough though, when you consider how much it costs to get set up reloading for those beasts )

Howdy,
Just a couple of items:
A Henry 45-70 (When they come around)
A Kel-Tec PMR-30 (When they come around)
Of course, there're other items that come around that I don't know yet that I need!!
One more thing, I just gotta get up to visit Pitchy. I'm only 40 or so miles south of him....
Happy New Year everybody...

Re: What Is On Your 2012 I Want List?
I 'want' to win Powerball but that's not likely so as far as firearms, I'd love to have a 24" Uberti Special Sporting rifle in 357mag but it's not likely that I'll have the resources this coming year. Oh well, one can dream.

I want them to figure out if positrons really go back in time, if neutrinos go faster than light, if there really are six more dimensions that just didn't expand with the 3 we have, if there is this Higgs Boson,,, oh - and a Sport Model UFO - you know that 36' disc one that can do 6000 mph here. Firearms decisions are still up in the air.

I guess it would have to be a 1st Gen Colt SAA -any cal- to go with My 2nd & 3rd Gen. Then all the old Winchesters I can muster. Oh and a B-92 357.

Re: What Is On Your 2012 I Want List?
It's gonna be an either / or kinda year.
I've been wanting one of those Taurus 992's with the inter-changeable .22WMR and .22LR cylinders, but I've also been looking into the Colt 1911-22's and those new Browning downsized 1911 style 22's.
Can't think of a new lever-gun that I'm wishing for. Need to work on my .356Win re-loads, and several others after that.
I just decided that I need a new chronograph.

I am working on finishing my pilots license for future missions work. That would be the first step. Then go on and get the instrument rating and twin engine certs. This list may spill into next year. then purchase the plane and get it outfitted. Then.....?

Well, the Lord has blessed me this year. Passed the academy entrance exams and have ben accepted into the academy.
So, based one that . . .
Completion of my up coming police academy.
Job with one of the larger police forces here.
Lastly as far as firearms go, I'd like a nice bird gun. I'm currently eyeing a Ithaca Featherlight in 20 gauge. A colt 1911 with picatany rail would be nice as well, but I'll settle for the bird gun.

My list is long, but the main things are:
1. A new carry pistol. Either a Ruger SR1911 or a Springfield XDM.
2. A gun safe
3. More free time and money to go on the hunts I want and finish my unfinished projects.
