Ok, being that we're almost at the end of 2003, what was your favorite gun and/or accessory purchased in 2003?
Although I haven't done the paperwork yet, I bought an AAC Phantom which will probably prove to be my favorite accessory bought in 2003. As for guns, I think its a milled receiver Bulgarian RPK which I got back in the spring. |
|
A pair of 38 double-dee's slapping my face nightly
and my Hungarian AK which I built on a Firing Line receiver. |
|
Favorite Pistol - Beretta Billennium
Favorite Rifle - CZ 527 Carbine in 223 |

TX30 Tripower!!!
[b]NOT![/b] . . . . . Best new gun/toy of 2003, Springfield Armory M1A Standard with USGI parts. Great shooter. |
|
Congrats to you, HardShell.
My favorite accessory, hands down, is my Aimpoint. I simply love it. If I had to pick a favorite firearm purchase this year I think that would be a Kimber Custom II, my first 1911. |
|
Hardshell,
I'm with you - I got my shootin' buddy on Oct. 14. He's got his own AR - we're still working on trigger discipline [:D] [img]http://www.hunt101.com/img/081817.jpg[/img] |

I picked up a [url=smallestminority.blogspot.com/2003_06_01_smallestminority_archive.html#95421545]sporterized 1917 Enfield[/url], Winchester made in 1918, that [url=smallestminority.blogspot.com/2003_06_08_smallestminority_archive.html#95438995]shoots like a dream[/url]. $200.
That's my favorite for this year! |

In one week I bought a new car (2004 Civic), a new wedding ring for the wife, a new kitchen stove and a new pair of shoes! As far as guns go, a DPMS/stinger M-4gery and an M44. It a toss up![:d]
|
|
Toss-up between the Sistema Colt 1911 and the Romanian SAR-1.
|
|
Red Dodge Dakota. It has a backup horn. Don't ask me why. I don't know.

|
Hardshell and Lurch,
Those are the most gratifying pics of truly strong Fathers with small babies I have seen in a long time. Such tenderness, and caring, the pics show... Y'all should be poster guys for a "Good Fathers" series. Thanks for posting, and many congrats on the new family members. |
|
What, no pics of those "38 double-dees"?
My fav toy this year was my Bushy 20" A2 bought last January, and the reason I ended-up here. |
|
It's a toss-up between the Leitner-Wise 499, and the Bridgeport mill/Atlas lathe.
[img]http://www.sr-25.com/499_features.jpg[/img] Sorry, no pics of the Bridgeport and Atlas :-) |
|
CZ 427 Varmint 22 RF
Sig P226 .40 S&W private party Second USM44 Mossberg 22 RF EOTech Holosight and FF rail tube for M4gery |
|
My favorite has to be my new 16" Olympic Arms UltraMatch upper reciever.
The Ruger M77 .338 Win Mag is a close second. |
|
Gotta be a toss-up between this.....

Well my favorite purchase actually made in 2003 was His and Her 1911's - Mine is a Kimber Pro CDP and her is a Compact CDP:

Very cool. |

It was hard to pick between the MAC10 and the AR-10 but for pure blasting fun I think the MAC comes out on top. [img]http://www.hunt101.com/img/081852.jpg[/img]

I am always most grateful for health and safety of my family and myself. After that, everything else pales in comparison. And it has been an excellent year in that respect.
But, this thread is about toys and it has also been a most excellent year toys wise. My 3 favorite toys of the year are: Jeep. Now I can go to the shoots regardless of where we meet. [img]http://photos.ar15.com/ImageGallery/Attachments/DownloadAttach.asp?iImageUnq=20835[/img] And my M16 Commando with Eotech [img]http://photos.ar15.com/ImageGallery/Attachments/DownloadAttach.asp?iImageUnq=20836[/img] And the M16 with 9mm suppressed upper (different lower - yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus) [img]http://photos.ar15.com/ImageGallery/Attachments/DownloadAttach.asp?iImageUnq=20837[/img] |

The two Romanian SAR-1's I purchased. I think they're fantastic.
|
|
I got a super deal on a Armalite AR-10A2 Carbine. But I also really like my 2003 Toyota Tacoma Limited..
|
|
Got my first AR and AK this year, longest wood ever--nuff said--savage1

The favorite that I [i]bought[/i] this year would have to be the RR SP1. However since I won't see that until 2004, maybe my SEBR...
Nope - won't see it `till `04 either! That pretty much leaves my STG58. Or maybe the Colt M4 upper and all the crap that clamps to it.. |

Gun: My Grandfathers CMP M1 Carbine, which he paid all of $20.00 for in the 1960's. The best part is he's still alive and heathy to see me enjoy shooting it.
Accessory: ARC LSH-P with 2AA TSP. Surefire A2 is a distant second though. |
