Who does that? Well, I submitted a slew of Form 1s right before, errr, what was that rule again? But getting the parts together has simply been too much effort.

Yesterday I picked up an A2 upper for my one of my AR builds, I also picked up more Rally shirts....there is a pink one on top
Today I delivered a PIF from 2018 to Quantsuff and spent about 4 hours sanding on a revolver

Installed a new gas block (the 3rd one) on my 10.5" 5.56 SBR. The Adjustable blew up, then the Tunable blew up, so I went with a Standard. Hoping the 3rd time's a charm...

Somehow I managed to make black paint the same color as the grey parkerizing it was going over. How the hell did I manage that?!?

It came in a lot of as-is condition surplus mags, there were a handful in crappy condition but I decided to leave that one as-is. Funny thing about those beat up old accessories you find sometimes - this one locks up perfectly in every 7.62 I`ve ever owned. Zero wobble across the board and easy removal. I love this mag. I`ve got an East German steel mag that`s been buffed to bare metal too but it`s more of a novelty, like my Hungarian cutaway.

More like what I wish I could do today.
Reading through the most recent Firearms News last night, there's a great article on the annual Pin Shoot in Michigan. You really don't need a specialized gun or guns to compete. A good .45 1911 firing +P, a doublestack 9mm, and a pump or semi 12g and you're good for most individual events. I REALLY want to go! But a week off, travel, hotel, a metric assload of ammo...just can't swing it.

I marveled at the selection of good brass on the ground at SVRC. Never seen that before. Did an old collector KTB?
7mm Rem Mag., 10mm, 45ACP, tons of .223, .308, .30-06, tons of 9mm, 38 special, 357Mag, .44Mag, 6.5 sumpinnother, etc.
I picked some up, added a bunch of 9mm and 5.45. Worth noting.

Went to the surplus stores down by JBLM looking for a Wilcox Aimpoint mount
Found an Aimpoint for only $100! Clearly fake, didn't buy
