I'm sorry to hear that. My brother did the same, leaving wife and 2 kids about 30 years ago. Prayers out to the entire family to help with this loss.

My last delivery came on the 3rd estimated day/window. I hate being tied down for hours for something I have to sign for.

I'm a "Resist the List" kinda guy. I'd organize a protest, but I'm not funded by Dark Money NGO's.

I live in Arizona for a reason. I'd probably be in jail if they saw my deliveries in the past month or ammo stacks in the garage. Just to rub it in, I ran the swamp cooler last night. You can return the favor when summer hits.

Frustrating day yesterday trying to purchase a gun online. Totally f'ed up. I found a gun at a big box store that was on sale for a change. Long story short, my box store credit card got blocked, card points disappeared and I spent considerable time on the phone with English as second language...

My "fixed" Rossi 92 worked 100% at the match yesterday. It used to hide in the safe until I rarely brought it out to examine and try various rounds in it. I understand why it was for sale in the gun shop, the previous owner couldn't get it to reliably work. My test loads for my .45 pistols...

I nearly lost my parents in a flooded basement when I was 15. The creek behind us flooded the entire neighborhood. I found out later my brother swam around the house looking for a way into the basement. We never found our 2 wheel trailer. We carried things upstairs as the water rose in the...

Match day. Will try out the rifle I think I fixed and .45 pistol loads. I'll bring a back up rifle in case. :rolleyes: If the pistol loads work well, I switched over the press yesterday to reload more. I bought a crap load of those bullets from a guy who's retiring from shooting and need to...

The house was 62 degrees this morning, great for sleeping, but not so good after you're up. Running an Amish fireplace to warm it up a bit. It's gonna hit 90 next week, our version of crazy spring weather. There is a local gun show we may attend. If we go I'll take a couple of pistols to sell...

I loaded the last brass colored .45 FMJ. I filled a .30 cal. ammo can and that sucker is heavy. I have another 1K or so copper FMJ, but will change to another caliber. Gonna test some .45 revolver rounds Sunday, so if all is well, may switch to that. It rained hard while in the garage and then...

Steel is set. Porta crapper got blown over along with a table we use for a shooting position.

38 outside now warming to 59. Gonna set steel at 9 for Sunday. My cleaning bench is a disaster and may tidy things up unless I get distracted with something else. Funny how when you have jobs you don't like to do get put aside for things that are more fun. :unsure:

A lot of regular prices have gone up prior to tariffs. Best policy is to buy when on sale, free shipping and/or no hazmat. All of my choices are made in the US, but may need to substitute based on price or availability. I may not need to buy more in my lifetime.

We've run the swamp cooler at night for several days. Friday will drop to 55, slowly warming to 72 by Monday. Doctor was very happy. I dropped another 2 lbs., A1C dropped to 5.7 and cholesteral (sp.), liver, kidneys and blood pressure good. I attribute the A1C to switching to Bud Light, but...

I have a golden rod in the safe that works well.

I have one of the 24 gun safes bolted to the garage floor. I have a painters tarp covering the safe so it isn't seen when the garage door is open. I've had the urge to buy a handful of guns lately, but if I wait a few days I usually realize they aren't much or any better than what I already have.

Welcome from Arizona Territory.

Prayers sent for Jester and wife for an uneventful surgery and a rapid recovery. Dr. appointment early today. I tend to get stressed about them, but not so much this time. My gun/shooting/reloading hobby has been a great distraction. It's hard to worry when your mind is elsewhere. Primers and a...

Tumbled brass, sorted dirty brass/hulls from Saturday, changed over to .45 ACP, ran about 500 rounds, and took a short nap. Primers coming today.

I should clean up the garage which is my reloading area. On the other hand, I may switch over to .45 ACP and load up a bunch of FMJ and HP that have gathered dust for years.
