Gun Owning Smokers

I heard a HUGE, but far away explosion the other night at like 12:30 am. My first thought was "those silly meth heads" then i got my 45 out and put it by my bed.

I broke out the billiard ball cannon on the 4th that started world war 3 my neighbor brought out his can launcher on a AR and some one broke out the tannerite they must have used 5 lbs now that was loud the guy used a glow stick as a target to hit it lol it vaporized.
We live in the town so did not go hog wild on the explosions other then the guy with the tannerite his yard backs up to the woods so got away with shooting it, some how none of us went to jail but the police were circling the block most of the night probably waiting to see what we would do next, the fireworks were week in comparison to what we were doing.

I was using 2 shot glasses of FFF black powder "fff is a black powder pistol powder but my canon is rated for it" tossed in some flower to make a bigger flash and then packed in a few hot dog buns nice and tight.
I had to start aiming the cannon up like a mortar instead of flat so it would not move back every shot damn thing weighs 70lbs but would recoil a foot or so every shot.
I think i need a bigger cannon for next year.

Picked up a few more while on vacation.

Beretta 85 BB excellent condition for a police/military trade in, it still has the white lettering inlay showing.
Sccy 9mm "disposable guns i buy them as truck guns and bathroom guns that i do not care about" they are the new highpoint but much better gun for the price i actually like the 380 version better than most of my other 380's other than the new Beretta.
Stoeger Uplander Side by Side Shotgun in 12 gauge, man it has a wide hand guard but i like the way it patterns.

mostly i spent the week topping off my ammo supply and i am still needing 357mg and 300 aac.
i had help counting ammo and it still took 4 or 5 hrs to inventory it all.
Hit a few cigar shops while making the rounds so all in all i had a good vacation other than spending to much on ammo.

Yeah, those Sccys are nice guns and closer to the inexpensive side.

If your looking for a cheap 1911 take a look at ATI i picked up 2 so far for $429 "that is the panic price i have heard they are cheaper" and both were good to go out of the box after i replaced the cheap factory magazines.
I did not even have to polish the feed ramp or anything just used good magazines, i will be keeping them stock i prefer the old school look.
I think they are a little better made than Rock island.
They are a local company Summerville, SC so i may have to go visit them and see what else they make.

Sorry have been gone a long time.

I finally gave up working "well my VA doctor said your going to die if you keep this crap up" went out occupational disability to make him happy and keep from getting killed at work.

Gun collecting is going good i think i have a little over 60 again after i hooked up family members with shot guns, rifles, pistols and ammo.
My main problem is ammo i have some strange addiction with buying it when i find it, even if i don't have a gun in that caliber now i need a 5.7 pistol.
I really need a new hobby, something cheaper like off roading my truck or get back in to motorcycles.


Not doing a lot with cigars just occasionally a decent cigar but mostly cheap stuff i chain smoke.
