Very good for my collection health. Not good for the reasons it grew. Went from two pistols and two rifles to more pistols, a boatload of bolt rifles, two gun cabinets, and most of the components I need to start reloading after my grandfather passed away.
FN FNX Tactical .45acp (Black) New
HK 45 .45acp (Black) Used
Sig P238 .380acp (Black) New
Smith 629 .44 mag (Backpacker) Traded for it/Used (like new)
Smith 29-2 .44 mag 4in. Nickle Used
Handguns I sold or traded:
STI Spartan 1911 .45acp
Ruger SR 1911 .45acp
Glock 32 .357sig
GSG MP5K Pistol .22lr This was a partial trade toward the Smith Backpacker
Smith & Wesson shield 9mm
Diamondback DB 380
I feel a little "lighter" and I feel as though I up-graded my collection.
As far as rifles go:
Here are some I sold or traded
Smith Sport AR Magpuled in Foilage Green-Sold
Troy AR-Traded
DPMS AR-Sold
2 Pre-ban Norinco AK's, one an under folder, and the other a 56s-Traded
PSA Complete Lower-Sold
Bulgarian AK-74-Traded
Bushmaster ACR Enhanced-Sold
Armalite AR, 24in. stainless barrel-Sold
GSG-STG-44 .22lr-Sold
I'm not going to list what I traded for or purchased as far as rifles go.
But it is an up-grade.
There are probably a few more, I just can't think of them right now.
Sold 2 - in hindsight I should have kept
Smith 61-2 in nickle - what a cutey and perfect condition
Sccy cpx-2 - it was perfect 500+ rounds -0- issues did send it back for something minor - because they'll do it
can back better than new or better than new broken in either way I'd have another one
added eaa witness 45 , cw9, lcp
oh and sold 2 - 22 conversion kits for 1911
who knows what will happen in 2014
I don't have much money to play with anymore, but I think I did good relative to firearms and ammo. I'm happy. I may go plinking with my .22LR again instead of my air-guns.
Very good year even tho I only bought 2 guns but they are just what I wanted. One was for my wife and the other for me now we both have guns we like to carry.
Good year here! Got a Ruger LC380 (For the wife... still getting her acclimated to guns/shooting... little by little she getting there), Zastava M72 (Not a handgun but we're Serbian and I found one with the Serbian crest engraved into the buttstock so... SCORE!!! ) and my wife got me a Springfield XDs 9mm for Christmas which has since become my EDC. I'm extremely blessed and grateful for a lot of things in my life and these are just a few of my favorite things
Kind of middle of the road year for me. I picked up a couple of new guns but sold more than I bought. Most of what I sold was stuff I did not use but a couple of them were tough to let go of and carried regrets once they were gone. My daily carry moved from a CZ 75/Kimber 1911 to a Glock 23/CZ 75 as 60/40 carry split. The 1911s get shot more now, but carried less. I neglected my rifles in 2013 with only two range trips to exercise them and my skills with them last year. That should change in 2014 though.
