What have you bought firearms related in the last 48 hours?

2 12 round mags for my new Sig P365 380, my first Sig. because I bought the gun there Tried the 10 rounders but my XL hands demanded more room. Funny that the flush 10 round actually gave me a better grip than the pinky extension. My LGS had only 2 12 rounders but gave me a good deal on them since I bought he gun there (also a good deal). Quick range trip early this morning confirmed it was a wise choice. Accurate, low recoil, fun to shoot, and my meathook hands are now happy. Probably won't see a lot of carry as the weather is turning colder and I carry my 9mm's almost exclusively in cold weather. It'll see considerable indoor range time for now to be ready for EDC when it warms up again. :)
 
I had been primarily wearing Wrangler stretch jeans. The problem with those is that the pocket is made from a different material and doesn't stretch/return at the same rate the jeans do. The result is their is always a white line at the top of the pocket that's visible and my OCD couldn't take it any longer. Plus I ripped the ass out of my best range jeans doing "Drills from stupid positions and in stupid circumstances" training last week. :)
Man, my favorites are the Duluth Firehose pants. They are super tough, have all kinds of good pockets and come in many colors and are also stretch.

Know what you mean about the pockets and the white at the top plus the pockets weren't very deep. Wore them for a few years. Glad to hear Jeff is doing better.
 
Try their Dry On The Fly pants..have a couple pairs for summer wear, still comfortable in out high 80’s, high humidity summer days.
Indeed, those were my Iraq pants for many contractor deployments unless I knew in advance I'd be crawling, the knees are kinda thin for that. I do love how Duluth does pockets... I am not big on tons of crap on my belt.
 
Yesterday I had a zillion errands to run. Hot date with the DMV which took an hour and a half even though there was hardly anyone there but me. Went to DQ for lunch and there I got a call from the gunsmith in Moorhead telling me he got his shipment of Ruger Ready Dots in, so of course I hightailed it over there and got me one. He had let me see it on a Max 9 in his shop the week before and I thought it was pretty cool. I’m not much into optics on my carry guns yet, but I thought I would give it a try.

I was old school too. Until about a month or so ago. I don't see me buying any more semi auto handguns that aren't optic ready.
 
It's a game changer. My first dot on a pistol was a Vortex Venom on a Q5 Match. Didn't do much for me. Dot is small and it don't co-witness at all. I put a 507 on a VP9 and that changed everything for me.
I came close to putting a 507 on my Hellcat (I don’t even know if that fits; that’s how much I know about them). Been reading up on them, but I fell for a new gun instead. I have the feeling that my world is about to get bigger…

I really like Holosun reticle(s). Especially on shotguns. I went with green 507c and while I like all my red ones, I like the green a little better.
