What's Your First Gun Related Purchase For 2012

Re: What's Your First Gun Related Purchase For 2012

Have not made one in 2012. Still recovering from Christmas presents I bought myself and others and that damn land tax that was due on Dec 20th.

Going through withdraws, must, buy, gun stuff...

EDIT:

Put some money down on a Bushnell HDMR with the G2 ret. Will be the first purchase in 2012.

Oh yeah .... I remember now. One of those two piece tactical bolt knobs and a monopod.

Re: What's Your First Gun Related Purchase For 2012

Devcon 10110. I'm going to try permanently welding the Savage in the McMillan A5 just to see what happens...or I'm going to totally screw that up and end up with an easily removable Savage 10FCP action in a perfectly bedded McMillan A5 stock...
