What Firearms or Firearm Related Items Do You Plan on Buying in 2017? (Read 20769 times)

What firearms or firearm related things do you plan on buying in 2017?

I always have a "to buy" list going.  Some things get checked off here and there, but it's more or less a running list of things that I want and or need.

In no particular order:

KMR rail for my Colt OEM2

Handguard with top optic rail for AK (have to decide which AK that I will mod)

Stock for AK (with the new handguard)

Red dot for AK

Those are the "major" things that I want.  As in more than $100 or so. 

I still need stuff like mag pouches and belts for my PPQ and CZ to get them fully outfitted for competition.  I'm also looking at updating my HSGI belt to something a little more slimline and lighter. 

I will also be expanding the medical stuff I already have on hand.  I have a Dark Angel Medical kit that I can put on my HSGI belt or just have handy in my range bag.

Oh yeah. I should mention that I'm always looking for sales on bulk ammo. Particularly for 9 and 5.56/.223.

For 2017 want to get a backup complete AR upper 16" with it's own BCG.  Don't have to be a top name upper like DD or similar.   Also want either a NV or thermal image rifle scope but need to do more research about the subject.   Want it for my 18" SPR, but don't have to be high magnification.
Maybe a dozen more Magpul AK gen 3 mags.    Another 1K of Sierra 77 gr. HPBT with cannelure and more ammo especially 12 ga. 00, 1, 4 BK.  Although kind of related to firearm issues, want to get a stick welder that uses 120V.

My plan is to try and use what I have.  Past couple years I've been working a lot more, mostly to afford things like Firearms.  Ironic thing is I can't get out on weekends and use them :P  Ammo if on sale sounds like a good plan too.

A bolt action .22 with a decent scope was pretty high on my to buy list as well.  Decided to pick up another AR and a couple of handguns before the election.  As I mentioned in threads about RapBack, I probably won't be buying a firearms any time soon.  Haven't ruled it out, but there isn't really anything that I NEED right now.  Ammo is always something I look to buy and try to keep a good amount on hand so that I am not caught in the next run on ammo and am stuck deciding between paying 2-3x what I normally would pay for ammo or not shooting at all.  At one point in the 2012-2013 craze, I remember 9, 45 and 5.56 were almost never to be found.  Then the run on 22.  That was terrible.

I am done buying any more guns. I am going to concentrate on shooting up all my ammo and reloading supplies. That should make me forget about all those revolvers that won't have a good home in my safe!  :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Luckily got my last buy in before the election, now just need to modify it a bit to my preferences.  Would like to replace the aging Primary Arms M4orgery red dot sight with something, but the cost of all but junk is still too high.

If you just need the stock, I donated one to the Rapback fund in the classified ads.
