Guns, Gear, Accessories, Etc: What did you buy today?

[Pandaz3]

Springfield XDM, 10mm. Bought it to replace my 1911 10mm. Although this gun will never compare to a 1911, it sure is a nice 2nd place winner.

These carry nicely in a DeSantis Thumb Break.

Here's what it would look like with good lighting.

I have the shorty 4.5 and longer 5.25, while my CZ75 based EAA Witness is nicer, these XDM's, especially the longer one for me, would be a carry piece for the woods.

 

[Diamondback]

Two B5/Brownells CAR stocks, red and white lacquer-sticks to color-fill the GF's Umbrella lower if they ever make more, ton of stripper clips to start getting my ammo organized.

Milt Sparks VM2. Get some.
First impressions from all read reviews. And My hands-On.
Very nicely made, and very comfy.

Found these Tasco 10x25 compact binos at the Goodwill today for $6.99, brand new. Score.

Just bought storage shelving from Home Depot 72" high x 77" wide x 24" deep. Each one of the four shelf holds 1500 lbs. Added 3 extra shelves and I think that may be enough to hold all of my ammo in cans. Now I just need to put it together and haul the boxes downstairs. Once done, I will estimate total weight - luckily on concrete floor. I will take pictures.

When the shelves and all the ammo is watching the same movie as you, back off a can or two. LOL.
I don't know how many PPSF I have in my ammo safe. Guess.
1-1/2" car decking on 72" centers times........yeah

When the house starts to lyst, I guess I start on the other side

The floor joists were creaking upstairs. I was using pallet material to make shelving. It is amazing how much weight pallet boards will hold.

I ordered a few MTM ammo cans

Picked up some taller rings for my vortex viper until I can get a cantilever mount. Going to zero it this weekend finally.

A big buffer spring for my AR 10

Milt Sparks carry belt ordered

I received a set of the Vortex Pro series rings in the high variety for my Ruger Precision Rimfire. I had my Diamondback Tactical in the medium version but wasn't real happy with it that low. I'm not sure that I could have used the Defender flip caps (that also showed up this week) with the medium rings.

Filled a couple of holes in my collection.

I have the Kimber Ultra Bel Air II in 9mm and the Kimber Micro 9 Bel Air in 9mm but Kimber also sells a Micro Bel Air in .380ACP so I decided to get it to complete the set. This seller on Gunbroker.com sells them NIB at the lowest price I have seen Kimber Bel Air Micro 380 Auto 7rd Mag 2.75In - Semi Auto Pistols at GunBroker.com : 828574443



Here it is with its 9mm big brothers:



I have some M1911A1s but I didn't have a Colt made M1911A1. I picked up this Colt today at the Oregon Arms Collector show in Portland:





Correct blued Colt barrel



Matching serial numbered slide




It was one of several thousand M1911A1s that Colt shipped to the Transportation Officer, Springfield Armory in March 1943 for distribution to the Army.

Here is my group of M1911A1s. Colt upper left, Ithaca upper right, bottom two are Remington Rands. Maybe someday I'll get a Union Switch & Signal. No hope of ever getting a Singer.

Ordered my first AR pistol so I got a handstop. Chose this because theyre 12 bucks on gunbroker w/ free shipping.
