What have you bought firearms related in the last 48 hours?

I came really close to pulling the trigger, but I dodged the bullet 😂😂🤣🤣. Sorry. Too much sun. I was looking, but I put my big girl’s pants on and said no. Can’t rationalize a new gun with so much going on right now, and I still have a project to complete. What has happened to me?? Adulting is so boring. 😂😎.
 
Picked up a 365XL + Romeo X optic in trade for a basic Tisas 1911DS Commander w/Vortex optic. Part: 365XL9BXR3RXX. Came with an extra mag and the baseplates.

Ordered a SIG AXG grip module at a discount: https://www.sigsauer.com/p365-axg-9mm-grip-module-black.html

This will make it a cousin to my P365 FUSE, and I can sell the two 12rd mags to offset $50 of the cost or so, and probably the OEM XL grip module for another $25-$40.

This is it for now. More pics after the grip swap - hopefully later this week.

Last time I saw that much ammo was on ammo detail in the Army! I only order up to 1000 because I don't want my door kicked in.

You watch too much TV. I'm shooting no less than 1000 rounds a month, sometimes closer to 1500 depending on the month. 90% of that 9mm (some 22 now and then when I'm tired/lazy).

That's fives cases of ammo. A standard case might measure roughly 13 x 8.5 x 7.5 inches and weigh around 4 pounds. Easily fits on a shelf in the garage.

During COVID I found an ammo deal on .45 GAP and bought 13,000 rounds (13 cases) on sight (it was priced at about 1/2 of normal price, as things weren't moving/stores weren't selling physical inventory as much). I have a picture where 8000 rounds (8 cases) are visible - the other 5 are behind these (different load, same caliber). .45 GAP worked great for USPSA production, which was 10rd capacity at the time, and the Glock was easy to re-spring for the much lighter (minor PF) training load they had available.

Got the gun for under $250 - at a time when 9mm was sky high because production had gone down.

I ended up shooting half and sending half to auction after covid, keeping two cases for myself. At auction, it went for double what I paid for it, making the ammo essentially "free" that I'd shot/kept.

Bonus: Conversion barrels exist for the Glock 37, which has the heavier G20 style slide. Makes .40, especially minor-loaded .40, really pleasant.

Hi,

I was out running errands and stopped by a LGS to look around. I wanted to buy something. I almost bought something. But decided to wait until I've saved up extra gig money so I can buy something more and bigger. :D

No, there wasn't a single Hi Point in the whole store. Drat.


Thank you for your indulgence,,

The .45 GAP deal Smells like GT Distributors during Covid, possibly in Austin, TX ;)
