Well, I did end up getting a gun for National Buy a Gun Day.
Sort of. I actually got the night of the 14th, not on the 15th, but that still counts as far as I’m concerned.
It was one of the guns I had on layaway at my local gun shop: for various and uninteresting reasons, I ended up paying off the layaway a few weeks early, and was able to bring it home that night.
Photos to come: I may do a teaser photo, but a full write-up will have to wait until after part 2 of “Day of the .45”.
Good news: I’m taking time off this week for my birthday.
Bad news: Wednesday I’m participating in a mass casualty exercise at the airport. Friday I’m leaving for the Texas Gun Collector’s Association show in Waco, and plan to be there through Sunday afternoon.
So I may have some time on Thursday, but I’ll have to see what else comes up on the schedule. I do have at least one other thing I’d like to do that day…
