Hoarding

[Teresa Heilevang]

And let me put my in..
Not about Hoarding.. but about Michael.
 We were at the Shooting Academy last week and there was a group of 15 or so guys who were at one of the bays next to where we were filming the big bad bad ass 223 gun of Michael's.
They all .. of course.. immediately recognized Michael, and about 8 of them came over and  stood around to watch as we filmed. When we were done.. I watched Michael happily and unselfishly ask all of these guys if they wanted to shoot the gun. They were flabbergasted and you should have seen the faces light up.  I heard one of them say.. " Are we using your ammo?"  He laughed and said." Yeah.. you all can use my ammo"..
So he stood there and showed these guys the skinny on shooting this gun and let a group of total strangers shoot his gun with about 300 rounds of his ammo.
He stood around and talked to these guys like he had known them all his life..
THAT is some down to earth good guy stuff here everyone..

That's all............ just wanted to tell you ...........

You know, after watching my first episode of SG a few years ago, it only took a few minutes into the program to figure MB was that type of guy.

And now, you have to go and confirm that impression...............dammit.

Michael spends all that time perfecting his rough-tough-&-gruff exterior....and you go off and wipe it out in one post......

 

I've always guessed he's a good one.....thanks for confirming it.... 

BTW, remember the story of The Ant and The Grasshopper......was the ant hoarding?....

Marshall'ette I could have told that story in so many words without even being there or knowing MB personally...just seems like that sort of guy!

We have been having a terrible time getting stuff. I just decided to start reloading in January and ordered a Lee turret press, a mess of misc. accessories, and other stuff. Since then I've got bullets, a few primers, and a lot of shiny brass waiting to get filled, but no press. The supplier can't tell me when they'll get a shipment.
Theres a local guy wih a 4 stage Dillon still in the box but I can't afford it.
Buying manufactured ammo is tough too. Almost everyone who has ammo now has a two box limit per type.

We're just not shooting much.

Jay, made a similar decision with a buddy of mine. Bought an RCBS Supreme single stage press. Decided to go basic but quality. Now picking up all the other stuff little at a time...Was passing thru Plattsburg NY the other day. I figured it was pretty off the beaten track and was worth stopping into Gander Mountain to ask if they had any primers of ANY TYPE OR BRAND. The guy at the gun counter laughed at me.... They have been sold out of nearly everything for months he said...had a couple of pkgs  of magnum pistol....I've checked Midway, MidSouth, Cableas, Natchez and no go...all said expecting delivery in late may or june....
