The Want List

I got up early last Sunday.

I stacked up and scheduled a pile of posts and in the process was thinking about the Want List.

I am very much an opportunist buyer. I usually don't shop for something specific, I just wait for something to fall withing my field of view that I have wanted. Most recent example was the Saiga 12 gauge. I happened to see it, new, when I made my weekly visit to a local store to check out the consignment cases.

If I see it and have the cash. It comes home with me. Problem is that some items on my want list I never see in person. I have still never seen a PMR-30 in person and I'd buy that if I did. I saw a KRISS .45acp carbine at the Nations Gun Show but it was over priced.

One of the guns I see all the time that I have almost bought on many occasions is the Ruger 10/22 Charger. One of those will find it's way into my safe some day soon. Mostly because it's great cheap fun to shoot!

--Come on PMR-30. Cross my path!!

That thing hold 30 rounds of .22mag inside the grip?

Now I want to see one.

I don't get the fascination with the PMR 30. Its not like 22mag is cheap like 22LR. But its a rimfire round, so you'd have all the break-in and hangups of the 22LR in an auto-loader. Not only that, it looks like the grip is too deep to get a comfortable grip. I guess I'd have to see one and shoot it to get it. But to each his own.

And btw, I thought today was Friday.

Andy,

I wrote that on Sunday and scheduled it.

I like the .22mag round. Try it!

Broken Andy said...

Sorry, JB. I'll try to be less of a jerk. :)

Have a great Sunday. I enjoy your want lists. I've got my own but can't publish them because my wife reads my blog.

Not being a Jerk at all!

You could always email me your want list. I promise not to tell her!

Meh... at least you HAVE a want list... I gave up wants till I get some bills paid!

JB, just saw one under the glass at NOVA Arms today. They are apparently hard to find. If you want one, boogey up there.

And I was wrong about the grip. It works just fine. But this wouldn't be much more than a range toy.

JB Miller said...

They are all range toys at this point!

I may have to go there tomorrow!
