Anybody else have an itchy “Buy it Now” finger?

been buying powder, primers and projectiles like crazy the last month or so. Shooting em up pretty fast though
 
I am not doing too badly with buy it now finger. In the last two months I came across deals on a SS M-70 Classic and a Browning 71 I couldn't pass up. I did buy a little ahead on components I need for competition. I also ordered a Prazipress.
 
I've had the itch for a lever action rifle for a long time. A month or so ago I picked up a 1873 Uberti in .357. I really wanted a 45 colt but I found a .357 at Long Hunters in Amarillo and thought what the heck... already set up to load .357 so it was a no-brainer. Fun and very accurate little rifle to shoot but something about it just didn't scratch the itch. Brought it home a buddy today, 1866 sporting rifle in 45 colt. Can't wait to go shoot it tomorrow. 20200406_180613.jpg
 
Im frantically trying to head off 2 packages from the postman before wife sees them.
funny! i started practicing this tactic when i was about 10. i have failed several times. once i had some throwing knives i ordered from the back of boys life sent to the neighbors r.f.d. box. i got busted, got no knives, and suffered mightily the next christmas..... :(
 
Went for a doctors appointment today. So I pulled in to KFC drive thru with the wife. She was hungry. We pulled next door to the local gun shop parking lot to eat. After I finished I told her it is kind of rude not to go inside since we were sitting in their parking lot. "Whatever go inside, I'll wait here" was the reply. I wanted some Lil gun but lo and behold they had two 8 pounders of H4350. I bought one and thanked them. Last week I scored Varget there. Life is good.

SCORE!
 
Let's see . . . Some RL-23, Some RL-16, a bunch of 6mm Bergers, a similar amount of 6.5 Bergers, some Peterson brass, a trigger and a Defiance action. No matches being shot but I have been getting more-than-usual range time. The powder and bullets, therefore, are almost defensible. The Defiance was purely a moment of weakness and I cursed myself for being so spineless and impulsive. I quickly recovered and forgave myself, however.

Nice quilt!......and nice guns!
 
so josh, the 'b' is for bundy?
More and more...it feels like it.....either one, really.....the shoe salesman or the serial killer.
Somedays I think I,'m completely beaten down. Somedays I think I could snap!
This confinement has probably got everybody on edge. I took my frustration to the shop and opened up a barrel channel on a 40x stock...by hand! Sand paper on a dowel for two hours. That did it!;) I'm good for another day!

Now I don't feel as bad, might even list the stuff that came before the NF arrived:(
