Buy A Gun Day is fast approaching

April 15th. Thanks alot for reminding me Jay G.

That was one reminder I really didn't want. I have a pretty good idea what I'd like to buy, a Sig P-228. I COULD buy another gun, but I don't really need one, and it wouldn't be the greatest financial decision ever for a soon-to-be graduate with a temp job that could end at anytime.

I suppose I do have the money. I just put aside funds for the next 6 months of car insurance due this summer, as well as my cell phone bill. (my phone is lost right now anyways...) However I also have a pretty high CC balance at the moment. A new upper and current ammo prices will do that. A rant about ammo prices could fill another post.

Tax return + $300 election year bribe could cover most of the cost of a P228, but I'm reluctant to spend any large chunks of money right now.

We'll have to wait & see. Right now I'm leaning towards No. My goal come graduation is to have $3K put away in savings and I'm not sure I can accomplish that if I drop ~$550 on another Sig.

What is this "don't really need" talk? This is America, where want and need are the same thing!

Buy it, it's gonna be great. Turning money into noise is always a good time.

BTW, I'm a terrible influence.
