700 rounds of Tula Steel Case 9MM. Came with two free stackable ammo boxes. Price wasn't the worst but not the best at .40 a round including shipping.

Not too bad. I'm surprised the price on steel case hasn't increased more. Several weeks ago I purchased a 500 round case of Wolf Steel Case 9mm. I'm glad I was able to find a case.

    Bought a 7.5" AR pistol upper chambered in 7.62x39 and a billet aluminum blade, grip and charging handle for it, as well as another 1000 rounds of 7.62x39.

    Side note: I was visiting my parents this week and my Dad breaks out a Tommy Gun complete with drum mag. I begged him to sell it to me and he said no. Turns out it is a non-functional movie prop. Guess I don't need it after all.
    I consider owning and shooting guns to be a fun hobby. That could also save my life or the lives of others.

    Wow!! You don't see those everyday. Especially with all the extras.
    Bullets are the only things that do their job only after they're fired.

    I overpaid on a lot AR parts this week. I bought a VLTOR A5 system, BCM gunfighter furniture set, PRI gas buster charging handle, PWS ratcheting castle nut, Bootleg industries adjustable BCG, Noveske pivot & take down pins, Fortis LPK, Geissele SSP and I sent my upper to D.Wilson MFG for a pin & weld job.

    I should have a bad ass rifle in a week or two.

    Edit: I also bought a Foward controls design cam pin. I can't figure out what all the hype's about their stuff. Maybe one you guys can fill me in.

    My 7.62x39 upper just showed up. Now I have a pair of pistols. Brothers in arms? Fricken love how light and easy to maneuver these are.

    My wife bought me a P365XL from PSA. They had a tacpac sale, which included 3 mags and a holster. Holster looks okay, but the extra mag was what I was happy about. SIG mags are like 40 to 50 bucks. And since all my local prices were from 600-625 for the gun by itself, I got a steal. Hasnt came yet, but it will be here just in time for my B day this month. Will likely get a 507k.
    Not sure about all of you, but I want to wait to get the 507k until they make it with the ACSS vulcan reticle. Im certain they will, and I also hope they add solar panels to it. Just in case.

    Bought a Glock 43x with night sights and steel 15 round mags, shopping for a second one and selling the g17 and p22 they are replacing! Time to stock up on more 9mm ammo.

    The G43X is a great pistol. I love mine!

    Glad to hear it! Very happy with it so far. Wanted to get my wife and I on the same page as far as our CC setups and the g43x fit the bill.

    Got my KAC BUIS back from a buddy after parkerizing and cerakote.   Lots of bitty parts, but somehow did not lose anything.

    Little springs and ball bearings, but white grese held things inplace while a did my jiggery pokery.
    Pics are pre-coating after disassembly.

    Last night I ordered a lower parts kit for an AR as well as some hand stops and a sling from Midway. Today I went to Guns ETC to get an AR lower since they have them for $69. Ended up buying the lower and a Sig P365 SAS. That Sig just seemed so right I had to buy it.
    I consider owning and shooting guns to be a fun hobby. That could also save my life or the lives of others.

    At the swap meet Sunday I found a 40mm ammo can for a good deal. While larger than the typical ammo can, which means it holds more, it also doesn't have a carry handle on top, meaning it takes two hands to carry it when loaded with ammo. Currently loading it with 7.62x39. I'm leaving the rounds in their 20 round boxes so there are lots of air gaps between the boxes. But I still think it will hold at least 1500 rounds.

    Also at the swap meet I bought an aluminum AR mag loaded with 30 rounds of 5.56 green tips. $25 is a decent deal. Guaranteed the seller does not own an AR so better I own it than him.
