Topic: To early for Christmas gifts?

[toytuff]

Picked up 200 rounds of 45 auto while on sale. No 45 but I have ammo for one. 

Every 45 I want is sold out. Kimbers went fast.

Oh boy! Just like a little kid I kept refreshing the web page "hoping" for more Kimbers on sale. All last night before  bed and early this morning. Dang, no go.

I was out of town and returned noonish to refresh the page. Come on baby, come on  baby then a whoo hooo! In stock it said. Fingers fumbling, mouth watering, hands shaking I started the check out. Better make sure I had the right model. Better hurry too!

Checkout, now! Click, click and bam, bought the last one! Not available once again. Whew!

I wonder if by some bogus law they can only sell so many in a given time. This happened with ammo also. Could be someone canceled an order.

Well, I don't care. Ship it. Now!

Wow, tt, you were rally jonesin for it!!

Steve, you are so correct. Heck of a price, free ship and no tax in Arizona. I wasn't sure if one would become available again as the first run sold out in half a day on Saturday. There were a couple others, one larger, one smaller but they sold out early yesterday.

I should mention a top end Kimber also. $25.00 FFL fee when it comes in. I'll pick up the 9mm at that  time while I'm there. 

Had time to cancel the 200 rounds of 45 ammo as I found it cheaper at Buds Gun Shop. $3.00 a box cheaper so I picked up 500 rounds. 

This is now Christmas out of control.

  That is great, since you were wanting one so much. Good for you.

Christmas continues. 

Municion...



And the pistola to shoot it with..



Needles to say I'm glad I pulled the trigger (pun) on this. Sportsman Outdoor on Friday actually reduced the price another $40 which immediately sold out. Again.

Beautiful piece.

Thanks for injecting money into the economy!
Gun sales often see record sales prior to a new president taking office.  Imagine that will be true even for this administration.

Kimbers are very nice guns, they faltered a bit a few years ago.  H&K are nice as well.

You lady friend should really consider having her 357 Mag Na Ported, fantastic mod that makes the gun much more accurate in my experience.  Friend's scoped Mag Na Ported 357 was a joy punching holes very accurately at 25 feet and 25 yds.  I could make a tighter pattern inside the 8 ring with the 357 but could not with a 9mm or .40

I was highly impressed and also puzzled by the increased accuracy...it was quite the handgun /handcannon.  It was a long barrel Python.

[toytuff]

USA economy I might add.

The other half only owns two guns. A scoped Ruger 10-22 I bought her for Christmas several years ago and this for her birthday several years ago.

Keeps it in her nightstand.  Oh, cover your ears!

       Whoa, Can someone say, "Arsenal"?        Nice looking 45, to handle that ammo.

           Sounds like she is pretty well setup, weapon wise as well.

I did some thinking, well a lot of thinking, as to what I wanted for another carry firearm. Yeah, like the SCCY, liked the price and capacity. After receiving the Kimber I started to look at other brands. Good guns hold value.

Not a Glock fan, nice firearms, don't get me wrong. Looked at the Sig Sauer 938. Nice firearms although several tube videos talked about some ejector issues. Back to the Kimbers and dropping down from a 9mm to a 380 caliper. Lighter, easier to carry for me. Have a 380 already and always liked the gun.

Narrowed down to a couple of choices. The one that caught my eye was the Kimber Micro Advocate 380 with G10 grips and Tritium sights. Sure, out of stock. Again.

Played the watching and refresh game then bam! Three became available today. Well, it's two now but my CC is taking a hit. 

Ordered an extra clip for the 380 and 45 as well. The Holiday deals are to good to pass on. Maybe I need counciling.

   LOL, What do you have, "Buy More Guns & Ammoitis"? LOL.

               Like a Grownup version of "A Kid In A Candy Shop. LOL. Hey, yours to do with what you feel the need for, right? Kinda enjoying it myself.

[toytuff]

Yeah, it's fun but I need to stop.    Well, I should stop until next year.

I was adding everything in my head but decided I really don't want to know. Maybe it's best to add what I saved instead?

I keep feeding my neighbor with new guns to clean. He just walks away shaking his head anymore. I did get him a nice Christmas gift for all he and his wife do for us through out the year. Best neighbor I could have.

Now I need to troubleshoot the Ducati and see why that doesn't want to start. I think it's the solenoid, battery checks fine. There goes extra ammo.

       Yeah, I know it is easy to get on a roll, doing a certain thing and at least you aren't throwing your money away. But, yeah, would be good to get that Ducati lined out, for sure.  And, it is Great to have Good Neighbors, as I have had some good ones too and would not take anything for them. Take it easy guy and Hope Santa is good to you, as I am sure he will be.         

[toytuff]

Santa, I'm afraid, has already been here.   

[bill440cars]

            Whoa, I'll say!     My question is, do you wrap your things and open them on Christmas Day, with a Total look of surprise?     Guess it would be kinda hard to wrap up that Weapons Safe, huh?    Had to mess with you, you should know that.     Have a good one. 

[RAFster122s]

Nice growing collection...you just have to consolation in you have contributed to the gun sales statistic that will be reported in January most likely. If you register your Kimbers with them they should send you a nice card every year.  They make a good handgun and there are lots of custom gunsmiths whom have fixed the Sig Sauer ejection issues, worked on the trigger mechanism, etc.  The Tritium sights are the way to go I think.

I never liked Glocks either...tough gun to be accurate with as they have some quirks and unless held tightly when firing they bite ( literally ).

[Stev-o]

Maybe I need counciling. 

No, counseling wont help.  But name change may be in order - Toy Nut?!

[RAFster122s]

           LOL, Could be Tuf, to be a Toy Nut. And Counseling, just might lead to the "Counselor" to becoming addicted.
