The "What did you buy today?" thread...

Fun you mentioned that. It's on dusk, the windscreen is covered in bug guts, the old headlights are dull and my daughter is driving. I'm a little worried about a roo jumping out in front of us.

Welcome back to he with the most lugs win. Congrats on the ride.

Thanks. My daughter is a very happy lady at the moment.

I bet. We have deer here. And they run 40mph (64.374kph) and weigh up to 300lbs. They come out of nowhere and can total a car. I've hit 4 in my life. Two did over $5000 in damage both times, to the same car, on two different occasions. One damaged every panel down the right side, including the hood and trunk lid, lights, and a windshield, and the other did the exact same on the left. But that Yota should make mincemeat of a Roo

I've hit a few roos during my driving years. Not for a long time though. Luckily, never any real hard hits.
Just need to be alert and drop 10km/h at sunset and sunrise. We usually have the steel bullbars and good spotlights on the front too.

The other couple times I hit a deer they ran from a field by the road and plowed into the side of my car. I saw one about 100 yards off to my side of the road. He lunged and it was like he went into slow motion in my mind. He took out my door, side mirror, and rear quarter before I could even blink. He almost came through my window. His head hit the glass right next to my face with a huge thud, along with the sound of metal wrinkling.

Man, I have been hunting for the very last part to finish the Kyosho Beetle. Noticed it recently got discontinued. Found one and ordered! Pretty stoked!

You ever squeeze the trigger at multiple hobby shops online, and then wanna go puke into a trashcan? Yeah.. That was definitely one of those over here… Good gawd…

made a big AMain order like 2 weeks ago. currently waiting on an ebay order. just made a Horizon order. need to make another AMain order. trashcans full! I'm to cheap for this crap.

Haven't actually bought it yet, but asked for a quote from my woodshop guy. Needing a table to create a shallow "L" at the end of my workbench so I can move my Akro Mills screw storage cabinets to my right side for easier access. Also added a couple drawers for my electronics tools to store there. I am hoping he can do this cheap, but I get the feeling the cost is going to be more than I can afford. I might just grab an Amozon cheapy, but I'm having trouble finding one the right size, as the height and length are critical.

The wife bought me a 2011 for my 50th. Going to try to shoot some pistol comps this year, and excited to tinker with a new (kinda) platform.

Man, that is a cool looking pistola!

Well crap. I guess my woodshop guy is having health issues and not making stuff anymore

Back to the drawing board.

Good luck at the games. I shot IPSC for a while back in the 80s. Got out of that about a year after the Para Ordnance frame kits came out.

Started shooting IDPA when it first started up, and have done a few GSSF shoots as well..

Thanks!! Grey is one of my favorite colors, and I dig the two tone with the black accents.

Thank you. It'll just be local games for me, steel challenge games, smoke and hope, roundabout, stuff like that. Just want to better my skills, and have some fun.

Looks like the tip should be orange. Congrats on the purchase.

Thanks. Why should the tip be orange?

Thanks. Why should the tip be orange?

Looks too cool to be real!
That thing is NICE!!!

 

[Chubaka]

Bb guns have the tube on the end like this one does that's painted orange to identify it as a toy. Never saw a real gun with the end of a muzzle like that is all.
