my Black Friday buy, an MBT-2S trigger from La Rue was back ordered, so I'll be getting it for Christmas...my Christmas shopping is pretty easy, and takes about 15minutes... gift cards from Carrabbas and a couple of boxes of ammo for shooting friends

I got a new toaster at JCPenney today. When I get my rebate it will bring the total cost including sales tax down to $7.51. I was going to order a coffee maker for the same price too, but they were already sold out at 2:00 AM. Slow cookers, also for the same price, were in stock but I didn't get one. I stopped at the UPS store on the way home. I didn't know where it was until I looked it up yesterday.

I'm getting emails from Tractor Supply Company about their daily specials. Yesterday there were 2 coupons, each only good for the day. One was for $50 off a Stack-On 14 gun security cabinet. It was only $149.99 to start with so I got it for $99.99 plus tax. I ordered it online yesterday and picked it up today. Right now I have everything that will fit crammed into a smaller gun cabinet that I think is only supposed to hold 8 guns. They're both about the same height and width but this one is deeper. Just guessing, I think it's about 5 inches deeper. I need to measure them.

I'll have one gun cabinet upstairs and one downstairs. I have to pull a piece of base molding off and screw it to the studs and floor. The pre-drilled holes might be okay, but they weren't on the old gun cabinet. I don't think I've ever seen keys like this. They have teeth on both edges but they're different from each other. My old gun cabinet uses tubular keys. I don't know which one is harder to pick, but I don't think either one compares to the high security padlocks and wheel clamp locks I have.

Barnes & Noble pissed me off. They sent one book and later on sent another one but canceled part of my order for the 2 books that I wanted the most. They were a Stephen King novel and a Clive Barker novel, each 77% off. I told them that if I couldn't get those 2 I didn't want the other 2 either, and they paid the shipping when I sent them back. I never read anything of Clive Barker's and this had Pinhead from Hellraiser in it. I saw a bunch of Hellraiser movies and was looking forward to reading that. What a disappointment. All I kept was the Kansas CD that I already opened. That should be $4.76 delivered but I need to see if they refund the amount they said they are.

as I type this, my LaRue MBT trigger is sitting in front of me... my Black Friday $87 special is probably going to cost me a whole lot more as I need something to put it in...

You can buy yourself a Christmas present, birthday present, etc. until you have a complete firearm.

Jumbo... I bought my gun safe when I was shooting pistols primarily... plenty of extra room for 12 long guns... then we started shooting 3 gun, then we shot the Team Challenge, then we started shooting sporting clays, 5 stand, and skeet, then we started shooting PCC,... I live in an old frame house, and there is already a distinct sag under the gun safe  :)

Les, Agri Supply can help with that. I know folks who have had that problem. One solution I've seen used in houses needing more support, if you have room in your crawlspace to get under the house, is a jack like the one in the link below.

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

If I didn't have jack posts in my basement the whole house would have imploded by now, and not from the weight of gun safes.  :'(
