Hey fellas, is this also a thread where I can ask questions about this?

If so, my question is, is there a minimum amount of stuff that you must add to the box? I see guys are adding what appears to be some very nice items and several at the same time from the same person.

I'm no cheap skate but I fear as the new guy I might be viewed as having robbed the place or something.

So I guess another question is, how do you keep your take and donation respectable?

I just put in what I have extra or bought and don’t use for whatever reason. I also kinda go based on what I take out as to how much to put back in. YMMV.

Ive got the box, and its hitting the road today. Luckily Ive gotten some OT with the inclement weather so have been a little busy. I also wanted to wait until I could do a full post because I need to remind everyone that we need to secure the baggies in the box. When I went to pick it up at the PO, the box had busted on the side and where 9,40 and .380 had littered all over the PO. I got my ass ripped by the postmaster who was trying to tell me it was illegal to ship cades etc..


Regardless, we need to make sure we secure the baggies. I opened the box to take a look around and found this:






Not a good sight.

I bagged up what I could and threw whatever was left in a pile to go through later. Im guessing its mostly 9 and 40.


Heres what the box is looking like:




Other than the misc crap that was loose I didnt take anything, no real need at the moment. I also culled what I believe is a MEC spring thing thats been in there forever. If you want it let me know

I added to the full bag of .40 and  some 30/06

This is the 20th time its made it back around to me, thanks to all for keeping it going!

Just got it and ready to ship, just need address emailed. The box is getting tired, but the wife has fresh ones at her work. It looks like it was in a truck with bad shocks for a long journey.   I took pics and will post them when I get more time.

I grabbed the 30.06 brass, the .50BMG piece of brass, and the small RCBS decap pins.  

Since I not only don't color within the lines, I don't read directions too well either.  I didn't have much for reloading/cases/ brass, so I threw in 4 handfuls of cleaned and mixed .45ACP brass to keep the theme.  I also added some goodies that I KNOW will find a good home.  If the next person doesn't want the stuff and I get in trouble, just remove the items and put them in your junk bin.  That is where I got them from, my junk bin. If the next recipient is an SKS fan, you WILL be happy.

I am smoking chicken, working on two car door poppers, getting the box ready, and opening Amazon orders.  I only ordered one rear shock and need two.  I used to be better at multi-tasking.......had to have the wife mix a bourbon and coke to keep the evening in check.

I will keep thinking about it and try to remember where I might have some more reloading stuff before the AM.

If I got it right, it looks like @kingston_fisher is the next shipto......IM sentr

Yup, junk bin stuff.  I never used the scope, kinda wish I had at least looked through it and trashed it myself.  I usually cut the wrap around part off the grips if I use them, but they were probably Hogues.  I hate their rubber grips.
