    Three New "Unexpected" Toys!

    I wasn't necessarily in the market for any of them, but due to timing, circumstance and maybe just a small bit of impulse, I've added three pretty sweet weapons to my arsenal over the last week or so!

    First, as Casey posted earlier, we commissioned Chris and STI to make us a couple of custom TBH pistols, both 1911 Guardian models with custom slide and grips.

    I used the new pistol to shoot a perfect score while shooting qualification for CHL class today!

    As I was taking to Casey on the phone the day he drove to Georgetown to pick up the pistols, our conversation turned from pistols to "gun threads" on TBH and panic buying of weapons, and I mentioned to Casey that, although I've never been in the market for an AR (I couldn't tell an upper from a lower) that I had been considering buying one before the election, and was starting to wish I had now that prices were elevated and stock was low. The next day, as I was driving from my south Texas hunting trip to Casey's to get my STI pistol, Casey told me that our friend, Les, had a BNIB Windham AR15 that he wanted to sell. On impulse, I told Les that I would buy it from him. He delivered it to me in
    South Texas last Monday!

    Although I have still yet to fire a round from it, it seems like a great gun. I can't wait to tinker with it this week...if I can find some ammo!! (Casey and Les both gave me some rounds to shoot)

    Finally, Mathews sent me a brand new Creed bow that arrived last Friday, just in time for my trip back south. I called around to both local shops on Saturday, but neither had accessories in stock after being depleted over Christmas. With in-laws in town we originally weren't going to be able to leave town until late Sunday evening, but as luck would have it, the family left early, allowing us time to stop at BPS to get a new rest (QAD Ultrarest), peep and string loop installed (I called several shops along my route, including sponsors On Target and Double G but all were closed on Sunday.) I moved my Spott Hog over from my Maxxis on Monday morning and was soon driving tacks and confident enough to hunt with it the rest of the week!

    Unfortunately I wasn't able to properly initiate it with animal blood, but the few practice shots I fired felt great!

    So many new toys, so little time left in the season!

                          They look even better in person. That bow really has a good feel to it. I'm glad I didn't shoot it

                            1911's purdy! Almost pulled the trigger but didn't. Maybe I should've of now that I see what it looks like in your pic. Congrats on all three new toys. I bet you are like a kid in candy store. You are now ballin' hard!
