Just picked up an M&P 22 Compact, cause I can still afford 22 ammo....

Sold my soul earlier for a single round of Magtech 9mm Ball. Wasn't cheap, but heck every shot counts right?

Just bought six more Magpul thirty rounders.

Might be buying something this morning. Vance Outdoors is opening a location in Lebanon Ohio today. Supposedly they've been putting ammo aside since the decision was made to expand, last year sometime I guess.
I am hopeful regarding availability but not optimistic about pricing. We'll see in a couple hours.

Quit worrying, hide your gun well, shut up, and CARRY that handgun!

Re: What have you bought (firearm related) in the last 48 hr
I was correct in that ammunition at Vance Outdoors was plentiful, but current pricing kept my wallet shut.
Nice store with something like 1200 firearms on the shelves as of 10am. I didn't want to get in that line, since my habit is to start eyeballing pre-owned and go from there. So, I can't narrow things down with a clerk to a specific brand, caliber, etc.
By far the best deals were clothing in the clearance section. Brands like 5.11 and Carhartt at maybe 75% off. Thinking Vance must have bought out a competitor or something.

Picked up a S&W MP 15 Sport II 5.56 at Vances Outdoor in Columbus today, a gun case and a 150 round box of Federal Ammo. The S&W retired LEO discount saved me $104 off the list price. Sweet. Also picked up 2000 large pistol primers for my buddy who reloads 45 cal.
Yes, It was a good day.

Been retrofitting my IWB holsters from steel belt clips, to leather loops with snaps. Every once in a while, those spring clips unexpectedly slip off the nylon-based gun belts I use. It's not like the gun and holster then crash to the floor or anything, but it causes me some concern. With a pair of leather loops that employ one-way snaps, the rig is more secure, in my opinion.

Nearly pristine, one owner, VERY low round count S&W 66-4.
I didn't get a steal but the price was more than fair.

IMHO The short-barrel 66 is the pinnacle of S&W revolver-craft, pre-lock and pre-MIM of course. It’s 6 rounds of 357 in a tidy yet shootable package. Well-done.Delta-3 wrote:Nearly pristine, one owner, VERY low round count S&W 66-4.

Thank you sir. I couldn't agree more.

The 3" model 66 is my favorite, but they've only ever run off small batches*. Really prefer the full length ejector rod. Only one I've seen for years is in my safe.
That's not a knock on the 2.5" gun, guys. Friends have them and I'm a fan.
*There's a newer 3" variant too, but it's ported and I'm pretty sure it has the external lock gizmo.
