Do I have a problem?

[Quacky88]

My problem is not enough capital for my problem.....

True, and then a few would look at my prior post and say nigh, guns are good without ammo because they flip them. and there's nothing wrong with that.. but that still begs/says

The problem with ammo, or the problem with me is when you hit a goal of 2000 rounds you start thinking that 2000 is not enough, then you build up to 3000, and then...........

Stop buying when you have enough to last the rest of your life.

I'm only in my mid-30's though. That would be a lot of ammo

Get more "capital".

I got impatient and spent the extra $370 to upgrade to a Special Grade this morning, they're in stock and it should ship this week!

You won't regret it.

Roger that! Priorities priorities. First the home....than the arsenal.....

Or buy a progressive press.

I've wanted another Garand since I sold the last one (needed the cash).
I just checked out the CMP's web site, looks like they have a good selection....I hadn't priced them in 15 years...I guess that's what they call inflation.

Oh boy.... Working another show this weekend, yesterday I picked up a crate of Bulgarian 54R and I swore that would be it. But then I found an Inland M1 Carbine......

Not trying to be nosey, but how much did he/they want?...good condition?

For the 54R or the Carbine?

54R was $220 from Surplus Arms and Ammo. I'll PM you about the Carbine

Oh yeah, my C&R was waiting in my mailbox when I got home from the show this evening. It's getting real now...

I am fully admitting my problem. With the announcement of the CMP price increase I ordered another three service grades. I even had to overnight the paperwork to make sure I didn't get bit by the price increase. I have a problem. I haven't even seen the first one I ordered, it's probably still a month out. What happened to me?

Psychology of scarcity. At least that's what I tell myself. I see that they have smaller spam cans now too, I'm tempted but that M1 Carbine has left me flat broke as far as guns and ammo go.

I think the end is getting near... One more case of Mosin, another Tulammo spam can of 7.62x39, plus some loose 30 Carbine and 7.62x39 should have me set for a while. Heck, I even ordered a couple guns to shoot the stuff! Hooray for overtime paychecks.

Keep telling yourself that.

Just don't start on stamp collecting. Those NFA toys are expensive and the wait time is an extreme test of your patients.

Currently waiting on 3 stamps...

What do my patients have to do with my suppressors? I don't take my guns to work.

It's never a bad thing.
My wife gives me heck for buying guns and ammo, like most do. I just take her to the walk in closet ask her about the dozen or so clothes with tags still on them for months and ask how much she paid for it? Then I ask if she sells it how much will she get?
Then I tell her about my latest firearm, how much it costs (minus a couple hundred bucks) and how much I can sell it for in a regular time, not too mention in newtown, ct prices.
When are avid "walking dead" watchers and my wife gets anxiety watching it. And i use that as an excuse to "prepare"
