    Now you can open a lemonade and ammo stand. Maybe, 50¢ for the lemonade and 1$ a round for the ammo. Cash in now before the ammo makers can finally catch up.

    When 9mm was under 0.25/rd I would never break even.  Now 9mm is about the same price as .44. Maybe it’s time to buy a press and dies for .44 and 9mm? Or not if components are as scarce as finished ammo. 

    So rip through my small stash of 9? or save it? If so for what?

    YES, it’s a good day for the 9s!   

    Just got back from the range and my wife is shaking her head looking at my night stand...  :D


    Safety violation. You really should close that folder. You could  easily cut yourself and get blood on the sheets. She'd kick your @$$ for that.

    I never had the patience to learn to reload. Now I'm left with a dwindling stash and high prices.

    Problem is primers.  If I have been able to find some, I would have had to remortgage the house to make the purchase.

    I never loaded 9’s pre-pandemic....glad I got into it. I’ve been able to shoot regularly.

    Now, now. You know better than to make exceptions to safety rules. First its an open knife "just for the picture", next it'll be finger on trigger "just for the picture", and so on... ;):D
    Seriously, that's a VERY nice picture, and the B&W really makes it!

    Yeah, probably a bad idea to have the knife open.  We do have a fair amount of traffic from “guests” that might not know any better…….  Ahhhhh screw’em… 😁

    Thanks for the compliment on the pic.  All jokes aside and just for info, the picture was taken and edited with an iPhone 12.  The nicest camera I own right now.  The editing capabilities are amazing!  You can really have some fun with it.  I took this just messing around in my daughters car.  Found a pair of the tanning booth goggles on the seat and brain went into full child mode.  This one is titled, Post-Apocalyptic GunNut… 😎

    Unfortunately, I don't have a 10mm and don't know much about them. Such a thread would be a good read...
