How is that cheaper? 400 rounds for $600 is $75 for 50 rounds.

I'm saving mine to pay the tax on the last "free" money they passed out.

The American Indians found out what happens when you don't control immigration.

What about taxes?
Try not paying the king his due and see how long you "own" your house. :(
Yes, that's right. I don't owe anyone. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Death and taxes. Maybe you've never heard. :roll: :lol:

Look on the bright side. A relative of mine had cataract surgery last fall, and now is he able to go back to doing all the things he was having a problem with, like driving, shooting, etc. He had been putting it off for quite a while but later said it was one of the best things he ever did medically.

I had it done several years ago. I found that my Jeep was a different color than I originally thought and that the color of several other things had changed. Guess looking through those old yellow lenses made things look different.

I had not gotten to the point of color changes, but oncoming headlights were blurry halos instead of sharp lights.
