Filled out the background check papers on
this yesterday:
I wanted the Ruger LCP but my gun store was out and when they checked they said there were none available anywhere so I went with the slightly more expensive S&W. This will be my first truly compact CC gun. I plan on having it with me at all times. Need to start stocking up on .380 ammo. It only comes with one magazine so I ordered another. Could be two weeks before the background check is finished.
I think that I am going to go back tomorrow and buy the full size S&W 40 that they had. I'll regret it if I don't. Hard to beat a quality Glock knock off at $350. Besides...someone is turning 21 in another month and a half so...
Plus more ammo.
mrs. trapeze sez that I need a bigger gun safe. Who am I to argue? Maybe one just for ammo.
BTW...it's hard to believe that (brass, non-Russian/ChiComm) .223 is $1 a round. And the cheap stuff will not work in the AR...irritating...
And I think that it's time to start accessorizing the AR15. Rails, scope rings and bipod for starters. Laser and tac light after that.
If things ever return to normal I am also thinking about upgrading my defensive shotgun situation. Maybe a Saiga 12. They are hard to find right now but maybe in a few months I can find one and maybe the prices will have returned to something approaching reasonable. Or not.
