Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

I love my M&P.40. Almost as much as I love my 1911. But each has its own purpose.

 

Good friend of mine has an M&P 40 and he hates it. Which is bizarre because he's definitely larger pawed than I am And I love that 40.

 

It would almost only used as a truck gun or home defense but I do prefer sticking with 9mm and keeping it a compact as if I ever wanted to carry it I wouldn't need to get another gun.

 

Why stick with 9mm? Isn't that ammo pretty much unobtainium right now?

 

Isn't pretty much all ammo unobtainium right now?

 

I love shooting the Colt but ammo is crazy.
The SIG p320 is a smooth shooting gun. My wife loves it!
She also prefers the Colt 1911 but with ammo scarce on boxes of .45 the 9mm is used at the range. Boxes of .45 @ the gun show went for $55-$60 box.
I found a few boxes a Mills fleet farm but it’s gone when it hits the shelf.


Ammo is available on secondary markets but.....$$$$

I have a Heritage .22lr 6 shooter revolver. It’s a blast.
No cracking rounds like the .45, but at $0.02 per round I can shoot it all day.

My neighbors want to get me spurs.
I nicknamed it Smokey Joe. Throws more smoke than a bbq grill!

 

Probably so. I haven't needed to buy any recently, so I'm a bit out of touch on that.

 

I'm guessing that with the incoming administration, things will only become harder to find.

 

That being said, my roommate has a muzzleloading Kentucky rifle replica that uses blasting caps, so it's actually pretty easy to find ammo and powder and such for that particular gun.

he also has an 1857 Confederate army replica revolver, you talk about throwing smoke, but that thing is a freaking blast

 

Since @BookieBob tickled my fantasies posting that Hilux, here's one that you guys would appreciate, especially @Thatbassguy

Edit: Pricier than a new Tacoma TRD Pro, but worth it? Eh, who knows.

 

If I was a collector, I would be all over that!

Oh, yeah.. Also if I had that kind of money laying around.

Very cool!

 

Yeah, that's one that you'd want in a showroom, never to take it out on the road. At least for that kind of coin.

 

I almost thought about it..My wife would have a stroke.
Hmmmm...

I wanted one since they were on the showroom floor!

While were on old Toyota’s and how they’re so cool. Do yourself a favor and don’t checkout http://fj.co if you don’t have 200k

 

You can't be posting things like this, my girlfriend might see...

 

now listen here I just made the decision to not buy a second vehicle and to keep beefing up my taco, you keep posting things like that I might change my mind

 

Created a Event on FB for those interested in doing a range day. February 20th The Range of Richfield 10am. I know a great place not far from there for lunch. The even is in the Wisconsin Tacoma Enthusiast page on Facebook
