Toys boys, this is what I'm talking about. Next on my list is getting my '69 Mustang finished and back home, which "should" be sometime in January. I'm not really in a big hurry, since I won't take it out for a drive until Spring anyway. The real kicker is that it turns out that member greghopper's boss is the one doing the work. Small world. Lol!

Lol! I didn't figure Greg would let anyone boss him. LOL I'm excited to see photos of it. I've been wondering about it since you first mentioned it.

Ended up with a cheaper 1187...I can't justify paying too much. Last gun was under 300 but falling apart with parts hard to find. 1187 should be easier to replace certain parts

They now make a rifled barrel for my Beretta A400, which would be nice, but it's $800.

A franchi with wood furniture would go nice with the rest of my guns. As would a slug barrell for my 870. Or another pump gun that has a rifled barrell already with it. And then a Mossberg 695 slug gun is something else I'm on the look out for.

I'm kinda torn between putting new string and cables on my existing Hoyt bow or buying a new bow. I get kind of attached to my bows and tend to hang on to them for a while.
My binocs have a few miles on them so I'm seriously considering a new pair of those. I bought my current pair in 2004 and they've been hunted pretty hard without the best of care. I give them a bath in hot soapy water a couple times a year but I've never gotten a lens pen for daily cleaning and a rag on dirt leaves scratches. Not sure what I'll buy but it'll take some money to upgrade from what I've got.
My daily hunting clothes have got some miles on them as well....maybe some new Rivers West or possibly Sitka Gear.
Treestands....will for sure be buying some more stands before next year. Plan to try the millennium m60u. Love the 100 series but the seat is a little cumbersome to stand up from.
I'm actually gunned out for a while...unless I get the itch to build a Hoosier again.

You can buy plenty of guns for 159$ but the left handed barrels I found were like 300$ There is always a fire arm on the list. Never met one I did not like. My next bigger purchase will be a little bigger hunting camper. (20ish foot pull) The 8 foot slide in is JUST not big enough to spend much time in. A weekend trip ok but no extra space so if something goes south like falling in a creek, there is no room to hang cloths to dry or place for extra cloths to change in to. Fridge to small. Can not put enough for weekend in it. Beleve it or not it is hard to heat also. It gets 110 at the Tom and can see your breath when you bend over to put your boots on. The next thing will be ramps to get atv in bed of truck.

I'm actually gunned out for a while...unless I get the itch to build a Hoosier again. At one time, I didn't think I needed more than one stand. I only have 10ac, but now I have two there, and really need at least one more. I bet you have at least a dozen stands, yes?

More than a dozen but some are getting long in the tooth. We pulled several last year and replaced chains and bolts but seats are the hard thing to fix up. I hate to pay $40 for a new seat on a 15 year old stand. Plus the millennium is so easy to hang.
Right now I have 18 stands out.

I can tell a lot from seeing a fella.
