Now, you can stimulate the local economy and protecting your neighborhood.

 

At the end of the year, will have a few winners, for most C&R added, most total added, most interesting firearm, etc. Some small prize, maybe a few t-shirts, gift certs to vendors, etc.

 

Hopefully this will encourage new members to post, ask questions, get more involved. Secondly, this can also serve going forward as a master pics thread. =)

 

Rules below are copies from Surplus Rifle Forum.

 

So here is the rules for the 2010 Arms Race.

#1 You can only list guns that have come into your possession as of 01/01/2010. That will give everyone an even start. Sorry seasoned NJGF'ers, you don't get a head start.

#2 Any firearm will count (even barreled actions) but, if you list your airsoft guns and water pistols we will laugh at you. Pellet & BB guns will count but post at your own risk of being picked on. Military flare guns will count also.

#3 The more you get the better but, Cool Factor can go a long ways.

Brownie points for: Bayonets, Scopes, a new stock, gun safes or cabinets

You may even get Brownie points for posting pic's.

 

 

Bonus question: In your first post, predict the total number of new firearms you will add to your arsenal, net of sales by year end 2010.

 

Btw, if your gun purchases sank in a boating accident.... dont feel you have to post, although if you want to tease people as to what sank, go right ahead.

First new purchase of the new year!

 

1. Mosin Nagant 91/30

2. AR-15

Pretty.

 

Ok Nick, I nominate you to do the 2011.

We'll see what happens at the end of the year, lol.

I'm not going to do well this year. I just want to buy a middy upper for one of my ARs and a new BUG. I might pick up a polestick.

 

I do plan to pick up two silencers if that counts. I want one for my G19 and one for my G19 Advantage Arms .22 kit with the threaded barrel. It's funny I already have silencers in those two calibers but neither can be made to work with the Glock.

 

If I have a VERY good year I will pick up some sort of 1911.

OK new rule for this year. If you sell a gun delete it from your list..... It was a PITA when I was tallying up the list for 2010 trying to figure out who sold what..

1. Japanese T-99

2. Italian M-38

Hey! I think optics over a certain doller figure should count!

I think it's gotta shot some kinda bullet to qualify.

But, but, but, for my very first optics purchase of the year I could buy 35 mosins

 

Optics are the one accessory that can be as much, if not more than the host weapon!

It's NJGF Arms race, not optics race.

 

Next it'll be safes, then ammo, then lights and whatever else is expensive.

Hehe well ya better look into the history of arms races where all manner of weaponry and their supporting elements are considered arms

The three that I bought so far durring my stay in Las Vegas

Is the top one an Italian gun? The one that shot Kennedy?

1) Mossberg 590 w/ heat shield

2) S&W M&P 15-22

I'm assembling an AR but not counting that until it's done

So first buy goes to...

ISSC MSR MK22 from our forum vendor Paul at Arms-N-Ammo

Dressed it up with the optics and afg for my ar15 in progress just for the photo op
