Bourbon and backorders

XTR

F-TR obssessed shooting junkie
Anyone else discovering this phenomenon? ;D

Berger apparently shipped 185 Juggs this week (Jugg, OTM, tactical OTM, LRBT, which ever name you like) and apparently I had back-orders with pretty much every online supplier that takes back orders. In some cases pretty large back orders according to all of the shipping notices I've gotten. :o
 
I stopped drinking Bourbon and any other strong spirits because I had a drinking problem.

I stopped drinking because the "limit" method I was using wasn't working.

My old limit method was I knew I had enough to drink when I tried to rub something off my back and it turned out to be the floor. ::)

I don't have any back orders because my wife took all my credit cards from me. :'(

And the only reason I come into this forum is to irritate the rest of the drunks. ;D

I'll have my back ordered Juggs tomorrow from PV.

Are you saying that you had multiple back orders with different companies for the same amount and now your going to have too many?

Not necessarily. I quit and don't go to meetings. Now I just try and remember how great it was to have a 18 year old liver and a 18 year old girl friend and a 18 year old...ahem!!
 
I'm leaving and going to the Enfield forums, the drunks there have more refined drinking tastes.

In the Lee Enfield forums we can argue about headspace till the sun come up.
(or we fall off the computer chair) ;)

I preached a funeral of a fellow who mixed bourbon and gunpowder, his Spriingfield came apart from 46 grains of Bullseye and got him with the bolt between the eyes. he was a life long reloader and shooter. GUNS, RELOADING, AND BOOZE DON'T MIX.
we all say we wouldn't make that kind of mistake but it can happen. the only sermon i will preach on here.

I never drink when I'm reloading, I'm afraid my cigarette will set the alcohol on fire and ruin the taste of the Bacardi 151. ::)
 
I wouldn't suggest combining drinking with firearms. I do however enjoy both, and I now have a stockpile of 4000+ 185 Bergers ;) They won't last 2 yrs.
 
You fellows just need to start shooting Trap in my neck of the woods.

The shot gunners will go out and shoot 25 birds then come into the club house and drop a six pack.

Then go out and shoot 25 more. Then a six pack.

The routine continues until the shells or six packs are expended.

They even have an open bar operating while the trap shooting is taking place. Convenient isn't it!

i have not ordered powder in a while...i did stock up in time.
i did order some 45 230 gr rn and some 160 gr 40 s&w bullets from one of my distributors late last yr.
i got a call today that my order had been filled....10,000 45, and 6,000 40's.
this is a typical order for my BUSINESS.....no hoarding, just economy of price and shipping.

a second distributor has had some supplies come in and filling orders as he can...it is slow but the supply line is still moving.

Sounds like the Gun Clubs in Switzerland.....

I've learned not to mix Wild Turkey and my laptop. First it's a really wasteful way to trash a laptop by spilling three fingers of really good bourbon on the keyboard. I could have just as easily run over it with the pickup.

Secondly, by the time the $20K credit limit kicks in a whole lot of back-ordered 105 Berger Hybrids have arrived from a dozen or more online stores. The UPS driver is still not speaking to me.

Laptops and wild turkey definately don't mix. I almost bought a white mule online one night.
