My bedroom is upstairs. I was cleaning out my closet up there and found a target black outline of a man I shot at a range and scotch taped it to the outside of my bedroom door. The husband of my sister-in-law saw that and started laughing. I said, “Would that target eaten up in the chest area with 38 special bullet holes, stop you from entering that room? He said, “I wouldn't go in there.”

If someone got in that room, he would be hit with buckshot in the face followed by 38 special hollow points in the chest. (My specialty is chests.) I'm real serious when I shoot.

I can wad up a piece of paper and hit the inside a trash can across the room. Yes, I played basketball and coached a girl's high school team. Keeping your eyes on the target is what makes that paper/basketball go in. It's the same with bullets - keep the eyes on the target, don't waver and the bullet will go where the eyes are aimed. It works for me whenever there is a target and something needs to hit it.

Went to two Wal-Marts yesterday:

The store in New Smyrna, Fl had about a dozen boxes of Tula Russian steel cased 7.62 X 39, 1 box Tula .45 ACP and an assortment of 30-06. They seemed to have a good supply of shotgun ammo but I didn't note the gauge or loads.

The Port Orange, Fl store had some Tula 7.62 X 39, and Tula 9 mm , plus an assortment of .40 S&W and shotgun rounds.

Ammo is trickling in but sells out within a day or two.

To their credit, Wal-Mart hasn't gouged the prices on ammo like some of the other places. The 3 box limit is probably a good idea since many people were buying there and reselling at flea markets & gun shows at inflated prices. This might slow those guys down.

It retailed for around $5,600 and I got it from my FFL as a “discontinued item” (2001), for $4,200. I had to take 2 employees and JD 317 SkidSteer to move it on a 10-ton dumptruck. It was a handful at 2 tons.

Hmmm.....

Nice. I’d love to have one, just a bit large. I only have room for the 48 gun safe.
