I guess it doesn’t always happen on Friday's, but Friday's are pay days!

What did you get?
Why did you get it?
What ya gonna do to it?!

I had to start this with a triple gents!
Got the G2 Vector in .45 as a SBR. Dream gun, always wanted one, and I’ve got more than 14 AR’s and I’m sick of building them. Next day after bragging at work, someone said “when you gonna get a can for that one?” I went back to the same place after work and got the Rugged .45!

As the time went on, I thought “I NEED my other dream gun! An MP5!” With the moronic standard mag ban closing in on lawful citizens in Washingfornia, I called to see how long I had on my Vector and Obsidian. Made sure my boys were getting out of federal prison at the same time 😎 Paperwork was approved and was sent to my local shop! I went into the shop again and dropped another $3,100 on the MP5! Prevailing wage with no consumer debt lets you do dumb schtuff like this. We have a mandatory 10 day wait time in our county.

And 10 days later…

Plans are a SBR for the MP5. I already added the forward guard to the Vector. And future plans are both getting sent to Blown Deadline for a Space Force theme!

So what you got boys and girls?!?

Been waiting for some 6.8 SPCII bras to become available and finally hit paydirt this week! Starline was taking back orders so I placed my order for 500 cases on Tuesday and they delivered yesterday. Nothing like shiny new brass sitting on my reloading work station!

One of my favorite calibers, have 2 6.8SPC uppers.

I picked up 500 90gr gold dots and some AA2200 from Midway awhile back that I need to work up a load with.

Those 143s shoot great over a load of H4350 in my new Savage 110 Tactical. Wished I had listened to you and bought a 6.5 Manbun earlier.🤣

I’ve been fighting the urge to buy a 28 Nosler, everything for that cartridge is high and unavailable.

The 6.5 CM is a great round for younger kids. No real big recoil and a bigger bullet than the .243 that most kids start with. I still have my first .243, love the gun but ballistics have changed and these new rounds are just better.
