The post whore thread.

JM, I'd ask you about reloading, but I confess that I don't know a thing about it so I can't even formulate an intelligent question.

I don't wear many light-colored items (it's not vanity, but practicality- I'm clumsy and constantly carry coffee. Dark clothes tend to disguise stains.) Designers have begun to make women's clothes lighter and lighter weight, for $everal rea$on$ : they are meant to layer, which means additional purchases as well as making the clothing even tighter on the body, it's cheaper material (but sold at higher prices) and because it's cheaper, it wears out quicker and must be replaced. It's damnably insidious.

As well as inconvenient for me to carry my gun! What were they thinking?

Haha, I know what you mean. My fiancee's clothes are so ridiculous thin and wear out all the time. I wear mostly tshirts and polos, and some of my polos are quite a few years old and still look brand new. Same goes for womens jeans, they're half as thick as mens, so they wear out faster.

Enjoy the rain!

It's only sprinkling out, my co-observer made it seem like it was pouring. We're getting lightning within 6km of the site, so the heavy rain should be here shortly.

HAha, just read up on it if you're slightly interested in it. If you want to shoot more, reloading is almost mandatory unless you have no expenses and make boatloads of money.

I'm reloading 9mm for $8.33/50rds, .40S&W for $9.50/50rds and depending on where I get bullets from, .223 is hypothetically around $5.50/20rds (not the best, but I haven't finished getting everything I need to reload .223 yet).

Heavy rain would be nice- the rest of the states are under water, and we're drying up for lack of moisture!

I will eventually be looking into reloading, but I don't dare look at another hobby (unless it's free) until we deal with some of our house expenses first.
Your reloading prices are amazing, and give me definite hope.

I keep debating buying bullets (40 and 223), 4 pmags and 5 pairs of lee lock ring eliminators for my press - definitely spoiled by these things, or a few misc shooting things - adjustable charge bar, brass catcher for AR, 9mm case gage, pistol buffer tube.

Also, still haven't decided if I'm going to make my spare lower into a pistol or a rifle. I suppose I can throw a pistol tube on it first, and then its forever a pistol, then I can install a rifle tube on it, with a stock and have a rifle upper for it.

We've been getting an unusual amount of rain down in the desert where I live, but the past few days its just been threatening and raising the humidity.

Ah yes, house expenses/upgrades. We built some "fun" money into our budget, so we both get about $50 set aside each pay period to spend on whatever we want (it's actually transferred to our personal checking accounts). I use it mostly for reloading supplies lol. Granted, we both know that if things get tight or unexpected bills come up, then we dip into "fun" money before going to savings.

Our humidity level has gone up enough to notice, but no rain to really speak of.

Yeah, the problem with the household-repairs budget is that the cars get jealous and want money and attention spent on them...and that makes appliances feel left out...and before you know it, Skynet is threatening to take over the house.

We blew our budget to hell when we had the chance to pick up some under-the-wire before-July-1st purchases. It was annoying to beat the time limit, but we did it.

I know this feeling all too well. First, our evaporative cooler dies, and while I was fixing it, we got a huge water leak in our front yard. Good thing my schedule allows me the time off to do these repairs myself. Saved us over $2k in labor of having the local contractors do it.

I could see that. My fiancee probably wouldn't allow that if we were under the impending legislation deadline, but I'm not going to take that chance and will definitely be stocking up on high cap mags over the next few months.
