Scored some .22 LR finally...  There's going to be one VERY happy boy a few hours after the FEDEX truck shows up.   This message has been edited. Last edited by: parallel, A penny saved is a government oversight. | ||

Is that you in the Navy Uniform in the back? "Guns are tools. The only weapon ever created was man." | |||

Yep. Not my favorite picture of me in uniform, but the wife likes it so there it hangs. A penny saved is a government oversight. | |||

I still have a box from the original release of the CCI Stinger. Price tag from all those years ago is still legible at $1.80 for the box of 100. Still cannot can't come to grips with 22LR costing about as much as my 9mm reloads. I've stopped counting. | |||

My local Dicks sporting goods had tons of 22s yesterday. Win and R.E.M. 100 packs were $8.99&9.99. They had Fed auto match and buckets of bulk R.E.M. Dicks and Wally World are the only places to buy IMO. P226 9mm CT Springfield custom 1911 hardball Glock 21 Les Baer Special Tactical AR-15 | |||

I noticed yesterday that WalMart had dropped its prices to $6.47 a box for CCI. 41 | |||

Happy shooting parallel Jr.!!!!! That apple didn't fall very from from THAT three, did it?? I don't think .22LR is even shipped to NW Houston, TX Walmart locations. At least not ones within a 20-mile radius of MY house..... And JMHO....anything over $0.06 a pull for .22LR is ENTIRELY too damned expensive. I know we've hashed that out before on here. I just bought 5 boxes of 100-count Winchester Super X (500 rounds) for $36, but had a $25 gift certificate; brought the cost down to $0.072 per pull...STILL too expensive! I remember buying that same clear red box of Winchester Super X for $2.99 consistently and sometimes on sale for $1.99. Oh well...the things that change as you age.

^^^^^^^^^^^^ Yeah.....pretty soon I'll be opening the front door and yelling, "GET OFF MY LAWN!!!!!!"  "If you’re a leader, you lead the way.

Next time you fly into Dulles, take a trip to WalMart in Chantilly. They have loads of 22 LR. 41 | |||

Been a little while since I've been in there & not sure where in NW Houston you are, but the WalMart on Rayford & 99 usually had some flavor of CCI in stock pretty frequently. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

You might not believe this, but my son is adopted (as is our daughter). I know, he does look just like me (and he has the same mannerisms). So much so that my mother-in-law asked me where I was 9 months before he was born. When he was about 14 months I sent a picture to my mom in PA. She then sent me a picture of me at 6 months and at about 15 months and if I didn't know any better I'd swear it was him and not me I was looking at. The REALLY freaky part? Our little girl looks just like my wife did at that age AND she's a wild child just like Mrs Parallel was at that age (m-i-l spilled the beans, I wasn't supposed to know she was a handful as a kid ). I like to think that this all means that our family was always meant to be. A penny saved is a government oversight. | |||

absolutely.  "All great things are simple, and many can be expressed in single words: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope." --Sir Winston Churchill "The world is filled with violence. Because criminals carry guns, we decent law-abiding citizens should also have guns. Otherwise they will win and the decent people will lose." --James Earl Jones | |||

My local hunting fishing store has that ammo, CCI standard .22, for $29. a 500 round brick. .06/ea. I'd bought one (there was no limit and they have a lot of it), but seeing 5000 sell for .089/ea, I'm thinking I should get a few more. Pretty much out of room for ammo, but at least .22 doesn't take up much space. | |||
