I just ordered a CZ-82 and 2 spare magazines.
Have a Random P-64 already and like the caliber.

I want to sell some of my 5 Chinese Model 56 SKS's that I bought in anticipation of the panic and use the profits to get another Walther P-1, a Star B and perhaps another CZ-83

Not much. I still want to sporterize my MN 91/30, get glass and a stock for my Stevens 200 .308, rebarrel my 7mm rem mag to .308 and install a scope on it, and I need to get started assembling my AR. I might try to find another 3rd generation Smith in .40 or .45. I might also get a new Charter arms bulldog. I bought an older on this year but I would like a newer one to take to the range.

Impossible to plan, I look for deals as they appear ... if I see something that fills a gap in the collection at the right price I get it. Just like hunting ... you go out into the wilderness and see what you can knock down, sure you might be looking for a nice Deer, but then something else might appear..

Hello lads, my first post here.

I would like a 1913 lithgow this year. Then I will be content for a long while.

Thanks for having me, I'm looking forward to joining in some enfield discussions if the opportunity arises.

I am going to start with an army helmet so it won't hurt when my wife grabs a skillet to clang my noggin for buying another gun.

Chinese SKS (used military), Chinese type 53 carbine (M/N), Yugo Model 59 SKS ( NOT 59/66, no granade launcher)
Hoping some other tuff shows up on the C&R list, but not gonna hold my breath with the current political atmosphere.

Look at that! More Lee Enfield collectors. Not sure what I'll be looking for this year, I'm more of a "spur of the moment opportunistic buyer". Just passed on a 1912 Sht .22 II the other day... already have one, and thought the money best left where it is in case I don't have the next rare one that comes up

I see an SVT in my future. It might not be this year, but I'll definitely be thinking about it all of 2013!!

Luckily, I bought my Enfield in 2012. Added a MAS 49/56 a few months later.

I would like to find a nice type 99 Arisaka this year. I like the looks of them.

"New" old guns

I finally put in an order with CMP for an M1 Garand, and I am trying to find a decent Walther P38 pistol.

Maybe a .22 conversion for my AR.
Anything that's a good deal and uses black powder.
Another Mosin, if I can find one at the right price.

My wife just bought me a 1903 Springfield for my B-day! It has a SN that places its manufacture in 1929 and a newer barrel with a stamp from 1944. So, now I'm moving on to trying to obtain an M1 Garand.

Well, I got a Ruger Takedown. I plan to get ammunition to feed it, but that's a daunting task lately.

Back in November, I told myself "I'll top off my personal store of ammo first of the year." So. Yeah.

5THBATT, those No1's are very nice. My LE collection is primarily No4's and Mo5's, I do have a 41 Lithgow and 63 RFI. My holy grail No4 is a Maltby marked MkI*. Not sure of the exact numbers but I have read about 50K made with the *. No one seems to have a reason why.

This years list

VZ24-done X's2
Ruger 10/22TD
Krag carbine
another Garand maybe

Just picked up a Kar 88, thinking of getting the set
Kar 71, Kar 98A, Kar 98k
Finding a good k that I can afford will probably be the most tricky

Re: What are you planning to get in 2013?

Ammo... That's all I need lol.

A 1911 would be nice too, but I'd have to get it in 45 and that's just another caliber I'd have to stock and reload.
