Now that I'm retired from full time work but still do part time, i'm wanting to spice it up a little. I was looking at my remaining 2 rifles and thinking where did they all go. I went through the AR phase and shot the National match course up to the time i made Master classification and then lost interest. I did the whole Garand thing and shot CMP match's until i developed cataracts. Now that those are fixed and my eye sight is 20/13 i feel it's time for something really fun to play with. This thing looks like the most fun you could have with your clothes on!!

Should make for a fun little blaster! I say get it then report back on how it does at the range!
 
Looks like fun.
I like 9mm carbines.


Same reason I have a snider carbine and Martini-Henry.
 
Pretty cool....... Which is why after my retirement I was looking for something along those lines to make life interesting and wound up with a Ruger PC Carbine, which is also pretty cool and I enjoy it. IIRC the list price is about the same for both the base model Ruger and the BM-9 although I have no idea on "real world" pricing. Either one would be nice. The BM-9 takes Glock mags and the Ruger has two different mag wells so you get a choice between Ruger or Glock mags.
 
The most fun per dollar gun I have purchased is the EP9. 419.00

Mostly polymer, light as a feather, reliable (i shoot mostly home cast boolits) acurate (can ring a 10" gong at 100 yards over and over).
Did I mention fun ?
 
Wife Radar is much more advanced than the average, run of the mill CTScanner at a large hospital.

Their intuition is more finely evolved than the pollination process of the Phalaenopsis Pulcherrima, Moth Orchid.

And their wrath burns hotter than the sun.
(Though, I hear they can be bought off with small sparkly things.)

I can only implore you to use truth and warn you to take care otherwise...

...and to camouflage it as lawn mower parts!:)

Let us know how it shoots, if you are still able to use your fingers!:D
 
I think it’s funny that when I opened tour thread, tbs, there was an ad for a Golf Swing Improvement video and I thought “Ugh, I hate golf. Why would he post his golf plans here?” Then it dawned on me that it was an advertisement that showed up in your post.
Then I clicked your link and thought “Much Better!” :D

Have fun with your new toy...And retirement! Congratulations! :thumbup:

I usually just go ahead and do it, ask for forgiveness later! Shes been cool lately I picked up a couple pistols last month which weren't terrible expensive (Smith 22 victory, Beretta 81 BB surplus). She knows about 1 of them, the other went under the radar!!:rofl:
