With all the folks rushing off into a panic over a possible gun ban... What's on your shopping list?

Mine:
S&W Shield 9mm
Advantage Arms .22LR conversion kit for Glock 21 (anybody wanna sell me one???)
Ruger BlackHawk Convertible 45Colt/45ACP
S&W K frame in 357mag.
I want a Long Bow... I'm talking I'm Robin Hood style, handmade by a craftsmen. English LONG BOW!!! (anybody got a link???)
A highpower pellet rifle 22cal. It shall be called the SAT (squirrel assassination tool) Any suggestions?
Remington Model 700 or 7 in 308. Building a Scout Rifle.
A good bolt action .22LR done scoped up. For when the SAT isn't enough gun, I'm talking a .22lr that'll dot a squirrel's eye at 50years.
Ammo

I have every firearm I will ever need plus some. But there is always room for one more. I have always wanted a Smith and Wesson model 27 4".
 
The problem (or not depending on what you want) with the gun buying frenzy is that its limited to certain firearms. All the LGSs ive been to are out of everything "high capacity" and "black rifle" meanwhile the new, and even used, revolver cases sit full and in one LGS the used case getting fuller!

No one is rushing out to grab a 30-30 lever or Mauser bolt action or even most revolvers. Heck most modern single stack semi autos are still on the shelf.

This works great for me since i like just about all of them. I have plenty of Glocks, HKs, MPs ARs, AKs and mags for all of em. So i can sit back and maybe get a good deal on a revolver or a single shot rifle or even a surplus rifle. In fact i just put a Enfield 303 and a S&W 36 on layaway and together they are just over $600

I want a 10/22 and that's about it as far as guns go. I am always open to a good deal. Arik gave me a great idea. I am going to start keeping my eyes open for a nice used 357mag/44mag Ruger Blackhawk. Maybe I will luck out and find one cheap someone traded in to help pay for there rush buy.
 
I wish that I had a 10/22 and a bunch of 25 rd mags. Oh well.

I should still be able to get 32 SW Long..... 30-40 Krag and 45-70 Trapdoor safe loads.
 
I still want another .357 Magnum revolver, but I do know which. I am thinking either a Highway Patrolman maybe in a 6 inch length or a Ruger Blackhawk in the 6 1/2 inch length but I do like the 4 5/8 inch guns.
I really want a nice .357 lever action. Marlins are rare and very expensive, I like the Henry but don't want a brass framed gun if I can help it. Not sure about the Puma, really don't want some Taurus / Brazilian gun when I can get American.
I want another black powder revolver, either a Colt 1860 like I had or maybe its time for a 1851 Navy.
If my arm ever recovers to let me, I still want a nice Sharps repro in .45-70 or above, also a Spencer repro is up there.
 
I knew this political fireball was coming and all it needed was a spark in the tinderbox. We just may have seen the spark, so I'm glad I already had everything I wanted, and then some.
 
Ever since I read the article in SWAT about the Hi-Point carbine I have wanted one and this past wednesday I found one. It was the 40. caliber. Seems to be well built and has a lifetime guarantee.
 
I've been looking for a new model 442 at a decent price. They seam to be a hot item now with many new cc'ers, but at least I know I can get my hands on a wheel gun more readily than ar's and such. Living in MA almost makes me chuckle at this panic buying of AR15's and high cap mags... I've been living this way all along, the whole country is going to end up being brought down to the level of MA and CA.
 
I was wanting an AR pistol in 300blk, but for what they want for those still....

I recently saw an add for a 22lr pistol that take 10-22 mags. I might be getting one soon.
 
I got mine:)

Rings and bases for my 1949 Winchester Model 70 in .257 Roberts:

I was losing sleep worrrying they might become hard to get with everyone making a run on shooting related items.

Fortunately, I had the foresight to get a scope mounted on the .257 Kimber before it was too late.

At the top of my list is a Shield 9mm. My patience is running out though, so if I don't find a Shield (at a reasonable price) I might have to get a M&P9C.
 
Wish I'd bought more rebuild kits for my Mini-30. Outta stock now. :(

Did just order 1K rounds of Yugo M67 7.62x39 milsurp ammo but that's just because it's drying up everywhere and any other brass cased x39 is pushing $1/round.
