I hadn't heard of the RXM before. Ruger X Magpul. I'll be looking into it.

The post office sent one of my packages from Indianapolis to CHARLESTON WV PROCESSING CENTER today are are saying it's expected to get to my house by 9 pm today. The mail probably came 4 or 5 hours ago, so I know it's not going to make it here from WV. The package they sent from Detroit to Denver ended up in Detroit again yesterday. AFAIK it hasn't move since then. They're saying that and 2 other packages will be here Monday, but the last know locations are Texas and Washington, DC.

My package that went from Detroit to Denver and back to Detroit landed in Flint Saturday. Monday, it was in transit to it's next location, and there's STILL no estimated delivery date. I wonder where in the world it's headed this time? Three packages arrived in Detroit today. One says it's expected to get here today, which isn't going to happen. One says tomorrow which is possible. And the other one? They're not saying how many more days I should expect it to take to travel the last 60 miles.

I got a titanium KeySmart Rugged key holder that holds up to 14 keys. I had to leave a couple of keys out, but have a 64 MB flash drive in with my keys.

I wore my woobie hoodie outside for the first time today. Nothing under it and nothing over it just to try it out. It was a little below freezing and it was comfortable for the few minutes I was outside. But I don't think I'd want to be out a long time in it when it's really cold. It's like a field jacket liner without the field jacket, for those of you familiar with them. I'm going to take the liner out of my field jacket and try it on over the hoodie, if it still fits me.

FoldAR has rifles, rifle uppers, and pistol uppers on sale now. Here are a few highlights. $1,000 for a brand new folding rifle is a good deal. A pistol upper and pistol brace lower with a Dead Foot Arms fire while folded systen makes for a very short double-folder. You can have one that's less than 11" long and fits in a small backpack.

I have a Pilar Frame Lock Folding EDC Pocket Knife, Drifter Liner Lock Folding EDC Pocket Knife, Techliner Super Shorty Pen, and Schmidt Megaline 4889 M Refill for it on order at CRKT. The pen was less than half price, about 54.5% off.

The SCHMIDT pressurized ball point refill cartridge enables not only writing upside down, but also in the most extreme environmental conditions at high speeds. The air tight system gives these refills a literally unlimited shelf-life. They are equipped with a stainless steel tip manufactured with the upmost precision as well as special ink pastes developed exclusively for SCHMIDT MegaLine pressurized refills. Write Anywhere: Ink cartridge developed for anti-gravity atmosphere. Refills Techliner and Williams Defense Pens.

I couldn't justify spending 100 bucks on an A.P.C. (Always. Pocket. Carry.) knife, even though it was 75 bucks off. Likewise, I decided not to get a CEO Compact Black / S35VN Steel / Carbon Fiber Handle knife for 80 bucks ($25 off). I think I already have a CEO Compact made with 1.4116 Steel / Glass-Reinforced Nylon Handle, but I don't see it lying around, so maybe not. I can't keep track of all my knives.

I thought I ordered one of those Tire Hero air pumps, but I guess not. Anyway, PROOF Wallets have Bolt Upgrade Kits available in Nickel Silver and Gold color. I got the Gold set and put them on my wallet. They didn't make the OD Green ballistic nylon Operator wallet when I got mine, or I would have bought that instead of the carbon fiber. That's what our flak vests were made of when I was in the army, and I know it's a tough, long wearing material. That one would probably look good with silver screws on it.

Considering this past Friday was a Black Friday with the boycott, I decided to buy something.

Ryobi isn’t exactly on the top of the quality-durability list and one of my drills died last month so I had decided to start changing over to Milwaukee as I purchase replacements.  Since I have another drill, I instead replaced the 50 year old Black and Decker corded hedge trimmer.  The bearings are so bad it’s almost shaking itself apart.  Used an $80 rebate coupon plus they threw in a circular saw with the charger/battery.  It didn’t sting too much but I did make a statement.  I’ll save the drill set for my birthday.
