if you received stimulus then how much went to guns and ammo?

I cant count the $500 I spent on ammo because that was 2 weeks ago so

Ruger SR 22 $450
SR22 upgrades- mags, et $110
New horsehide OWB custom holster for my hk45c $175

Im about to order some more ammo from wilson combat but only $150 or so.

Thats it so far!

Been looking for a gun, but just can't find anything I want. So think I'm going to do the following with it.

Buy some shooting bags and a backbone system for ARCA rail
Buy KRG ARCA rail system
Buy the KRG harris bipod ARCA adapter
SBR my AR pistol

That is my list so far.

If I had gotten a stimulus I would have halved it with my wife and spent my half on a new Nightforce.

I might have bought one more funky rifle to add to the collection.

I've got an upper coming that I'm going to pair with a Seekin N-15 stripped lower. I need to Form 1 that one so I will have two SBR's.

Bought a decently used Marlin model 90 in 12 gauge, a little stain and steel wool and it already looks better. Hope to give it a try on some NoDak pheasants next fall.

What should I do with money that I didn't ask for...don't need, and don't want? Strippers and Cocaine!

Bad thing is that the money you would have spent on a new toy for your self is being given to Bill down the street to buy what he wanted.

Most of it went for ammo and the rest will pay for my fishing slip spot. I would have paid for both even w/o the check.

What’s a stimulus check and how do I get one?

You better be saving it. Don't think the government won't be asking for it back.

Re: stimulus money - 03/19/21 02:28 AM

What is this the 3rd check and the 2nd time I apparently won't be getting one (the other time I got a whopping $800 for my entire family of 3). Meanwhile I'm paying for illegals to live in the Dallas convention Center, get 3 square meals, get their covid shots, men to play on womens sports teams, people to abort babies, if they get their way, more stimulus money that I won't get, universal medicare, and for someone to say I have to turn in my firearms or restrict what I can or can't buy...yeah I'm stimulated all to hell.

Ok, off my damn soapbox.

Sweet rifle. Had I gotten a stimi check it would have gone towards a gun.

Well fortunately even though I didn't get no damn stimulus check, it was bonus time so I got me a IWI Galil Ace pistol smile I even named it. Meet Angry Joe..

Earl, you always seem to have the coolest guns. Is that the 308 or 223?

Winner! Where’d you find the FDE? I’ve only seen the black versions. And I like that O-light....those are some sweet lights and underrated, IMO. The flip-lock mechanism on those is really nice.

Re: stimulus money - 03/19/21 05:23 AM

5.56mm...I'm sure this one will have enough flame and bang - can't imagine what it would be like to shoot the 7.62x51 pistol smile I need to get it to the range this weekend.

No check for me. This is so disturbing. Our great grandchildren will still be paying for this.

I was lucky and got it the same day that my local gunshop got it in. Oh man this OLight is insanely bright, one huge dislike is that OLight is a Chinese company but the quality isn't chinese. Yes this flip-lock mechanism is GREAT.
