Morning

 

[sadclownwp]

Was at a pawn shop last night and I came across the elusive sub 100 deal on a gun. Saw a Ruger 10/22 Collectors Series (series 2) on there wall for $99.99. It is the model that is the same as the 50th Anniversary Contest Winning Rifle, but without the threaded barrel and flash hider. I asked him why it was so cheap. He said not having the box killed the value. I agreed and dickered him down to $100 out the door.
I'll be spending most of the night polishing the trigger parts, cause the trigger pull is terrible.

Walking through Home Depot today I caught a yellow close out tag.

It was two Milwaukee M12 batteries and a charger. $279 sold separately marked $199 closed out for $100 military discount 10% out the door for $96 dollars and change.

Not as nice as a 10/22 for $100, but when you are completely cordless a deal on batteries is welcome.

I made the switch to rigid tools lifetime warranty on batteries seems like a no brainer to me. A little more expensive up front but not by much.

That is a great deal for a couple new batteries I don’t seem to find the good deals like that

In NWI news...

Security cameras catch grumpy old man with 1911 putting yellow discount stickers on expensive batteries to get a "deep" discount.

And little man wipes his butt with his beloved kitty.

Good thing she is a little British girl or he could lose a t******e that way.

That is sick.

This is my toolbox. Each of the black boxes is a kit full of red tools.

So you do drive around in a creep van. I knew it.

Hey Jedi, I think we found your missing van

Using them every single day, nothing seems to touch Milwaukee, the others are good, maybe even a better value on a hobby level, I’ve used most of them, Milwaukee gets my money. Fwiw Tom, if you have fb, check out a page Milwaukee tool nation, the guy that runs it is a rep, his prices are typically 50% of Home Depot, but you got one heck of a deal today

What jedi has noticed over the years of dealing with the trades in chiraqi is...

The furniture installers and carpentors carry around the red tools.

The electricians and general laborers carry around the yellow (dewalt) tools.

Seema like the red tools take a bigger beating around the work sites but still work. Sont often seen the yellow tools are dirty or beat up.

jedi went with team yellow since jedi hangs with the sparkys more often.
