100 rds of 9mm to feed my new, soon to be carry, gun; S&W Shield

Finally got a propane adapter (from Korea) for my Primus Omni Fuel stove.

And upgraded my sleeping pad to a 3.5"; more for camping but makes sleeping in the bed of the truck more comfortable too.

Car repair and maintenance

Got some lighters (whoop-dee-doo I know)

Work has been picking up a lot and I hope it stays this way because the busier it is, the more money I make

A gun, like any other source of power, is a force for either good or evil, being neither in itself, but dependent upon those who possess it.

Cemented a very heavy-duty fire ring and grill into the ground outside my BOL shelter. (Someone stole the last one.) Fertilized the asparagus and fruit trees I planted there.

Tanker of fuel, tanker of propane, on 3000-acre farm, cows, pigs, grain, stocked lakes, hunting woods...trails to security bunkers/surveillance locations, emergency generators, light and heavy equipment, lots of firepower and plans to keep it.

Placed an order for some M1A parts with Smith Enterprise for:

1 front sight base that accepts 5/8thX24 threads

1 Larger gas plug for suppressed fire

1 Extended bolt release

Picked up from the EE:

1 MI Light rail for the M1A

I still need the MI Aimpoint mount, Aimpoint H1 and "scout" upper handguard along with another 5 mags, but I'm getting there. I also need a sling. I wanna wrap this little project up quick and move back to my existing projects.

Had copies made and laminated of the class three forms for my suppressors.

Dumped three trash cans of horse s$%t around the asparagus and blueberries planted on the sod roof of the 'Man Bunker'. (Edible camouflage!)

Installed a good aftermarket trigger in my suppressed Ruger 77-22. Went from a gritty seven pound pull to a crisp two.
