Got an email from AIM Surplus...
« on: March 08, 2017, 02:32:19 PM »
said they had a showroom special on Gen 2 P-Mags.  Essentially $9 +tax.  So, after work today I stopped at their showroom.  Not for the first time, and certainly not the last.  I walked out the door with 5 P-Mags for $49 and change.  Retailers have overstocked, and now are beginning to try and move product.  Let the bargain hunt begin!

I'm not saying I didn't fondle an FN Hi Power.  Or an M-1 Carbine. Besides, it was $49 and some change.  Spent too much on the trip to Omaha, have to watch expenses for a week or two.

As of yesterday, Midway still had their 10-packs of PMags for $80. It cost me $9 shipping, so essentially I was in them for $9 each delivered.

If you are asking me, no.  It is not the same brand that I have been buying.  Can't have mixed brands in any one caliber.  That just wouldn't do.  I would lose my mind, what little of it I have left.

Well, Yes.  I wish I could be otherwise, I really do.  The missus causes my mind to melt when she purposely leaves 3 way light switches in the wrong positions.

I have 3-way light switches at the top and bottom of my stairs. When the light is off either both switches are up or they're both down. I prefer the down position and sometimes when I go upstairs I'll flip the switch off before I go back downstairs so they're both flipped down. Then when I turn the light on to go upstairs at bedtime I mess it up but I don't lose sleep over it. I'll fix it when I get up. I do like them both flipped down though I don't know why.

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster
