Shocked at the prices

I must be a sucker for punishment.. Bonk

or some type of masochist Whip

The next gun show is this weekend and guess what?
I cant wait to go there and spend my hard earned money again...
After all the abuse I got there trying to bargain my way into owning more jun(k)s* than I could possibly use up in my lifetime.

Logically I know this is stupid Stupid

but I crave!!
This is an addiction.. I should go to the social security and ask for help..
maybe they gonna give me a few bricks of surplus ammo...

jun(k)s* - funny thing about English language, G is pronounced as Jee
so Guns should be pronounced juns or Jun(k)s if all they do is to reside innertly inside your gun (or junk) cabinet(s).

Don't worry Gelan, at some point you'll get jaded and only very special or unusual guns will get your attention.

I just received a reply from Precision Bullets out of Texas.
They are 8 weeks behind on bullet orders, but I will still order 1000 .45ACP bullets from them.
$100.00 for a thousand. This includes shipping.
They are the "black" LSWC's.
This is the cheapest that I can find, and also the highest quality.
A 200gr bullet is spot on 200gr.

Just to let you guys know.

Don't spend all your money this weekend Gelandangan.
The Shot Show is on Next weekend

Tikka, at Shot show, they sell new stuff.
At gun show, they sell secondhand and old stock which most of the time are a tad cheaper.

Nevermind,
I bought 2 kgs of powder, 500 projectiles (308's in 110, 125 and 158gn) and 1000 CCI 450 primers for $200
Also I got a single press made by Byrd (weigh 12kg!!) for $45
I am quite happy this time.

I see that there is a decline in the number of seller and the number of visitor this time. Maybe that because of the shot show next week..
I'll be there too I think..
