Just curious how it is out there. I used to make on avg 300 hours of overtime a year. We've been cut to 40 hrs, 32 hrs may be in the near future, a layoff occurred yesterday where I work.
My OT money used to be some of my walking around money (WAM) for the occasional good gun deal, ammo, range trip, etc. I still find myself looking- (heavy sigh). But just looking. I grew up poor, so I know how to hold on tight to a dollar (I can hear George Washington screaming even now). I have done a bit of trading lately, with happy results. I do have assorted bits and pieces, parts and stocks, and whatnot that could finance a good deal, if I come across one.
Do you guys feel that you used to have more WAM last year or the year before than now? How about the local economies here and there, I know there have got to good gun deals out there. Are you still buying or passing? I mean in general pretty much, not the EBR and ammo stockpiling.
I still try to buy ammo every payday, mostly .22 right now. I find that's the cheapest pistol to shoot.
