Story of my life....
Not yet. Debating on a re-barrel, maybe a chassis, maybe just switch the stock and hunt with it. So many choices!

Nice, i really want to get a bolt action rifle of some sort. Need to finish this other rifle first, and have been messing with my 1911 a bit latley and want to get that running correctly too....never ending hobby of shit to do.
Nope. I think you will be spending more green on the dress you will have to buy to make amends at home.
I showed my wife when I walked in the door. She just laughed.

Jeff is already missing "Jungle Ready". She's been with us a while....didn't we pay you to take her. Glad she found a good home.

Since my having a simple surgery yesterday, I did not do much of anything gun related. My wife and I were out running around today to buy her some new jeans. We hit a few stores, including Academy. BTW, their .223/5.56 ammo inventory sucks. While in there, I recalled a brainstorm I had a little while back. I wanted a tackle box to store my misc. gun parts. That said, I bought a nice four-drawer box made by PLANO. Now, all of my small misc. gun parts reside in my new tackle box. Since I have some more small parts on order, I will have the perfect place for them. No more cardboard box with everything in plastic bags. I love being organized.
I also did the tackle box for my gun cleaning stuff and misc. tools (punches, picks, etc) helps keep everything a little more organized. The wally world on 29 had plenty of 556 and also had quite a few of the $29 100/rd box of federal 45acp. Just sayin

That's a good idea, I have a small tackle box I'm going to go dig out tomorrow and take everything out of ziploc bags.
Had a busy day today.
Got up and did a 2 mile fun run downtown with my wife, then I came back, loaded up and ran to the FOP range for a few minutes to chrono some new loads. The 9mm loaded w/ federal primers worked well in my 75B, but I didn't have any luck with 45ACP. I loaded up 4 different loads to try and meet power factor, unfortunately none of them did. So this afternoon, I cut the grass, loaded 400 rounds of 9mm (since my Dillon was already setup and mounted to the bench), then I swapped over to my Lee turret press and cranked out 3 new loads of 45ACP to test soon (tomorrow, if the weather cooperates). After all that was done, I took a suggestion from Dan1612 and added some more red to my comp AR. I'll work on getting some better photos soon.

^^^It's soooo fancy...
My vortex 3x magn came in yesterday, resighted the rifle at 50 yds. Definitely makes a huge difference. Glass is great, not sure how it compares to the g33 but works great behind my 512. Eye relief is a little short, dropped my mbuis to move it back more. We'll see how it does in a match...or how I do anyway.

I use a couple of these on my workbench for reloading and gun parts/tools. They make some with bins about half the size of these, as well.

My AC has crapped out... so I might shoot myself in the foot so I can sleep in an air conditioned hospital room. I guess that counts as gun stuff? Lol.
Open some windows and crank up some fans. Might be humid, but it ought to be fairly cool.

I live just off the water in Gulf Breeze, it's incredibly humid right now, fog is starting to role in. Gonna be a rough one but I should make it. Lol.
