$200 to Blow

Post by cwfunrider »

I was gifted a $200 prepaid debit card today as a thank you. All day i have been debating on what to do with it.

I could cash it out and deposit it my account and just forget about it. I could buy 200 bucks of ammo. Or i could put it together with other monies and get something bigger.

Since this is totally unexpected money, i want to do something fun with it. It is not a lot of money but lets have fun. Lets keep it gun/ gun accessories related.

What would you do?

Myself? I'd probably be inclined to put it towards something a little bigger, along with a portion of tax refunds.

Other things I might consider:

Custom Pistol Grips
High Capacity Magazines
Pistol Safe for Vehicle
A Class at Proactive Shooters

Also, I tend to find all kinds of stuff to add to my wish list, when I browse here:

This was first thought. Can always have more on hand.

If you mean standard capacity magazine's i do agree, but have a decent supply already, can always have more. And tax refunds are not something i usually get. I typically owe.

A good start. Keep the ideas comming.

I would look for something in the roughly $200 range. Ammo you can get at smaller quantities and only pay a little at a time, but a $200 item is probably something you put off buying because it's $200. Now seems like a good opportunity to get an item like that.

I have been considering a magnifier for my newest rifle to go with the red dot. That would be just about 2 bills.

I like this idea. Precious metals are like ammo.....you can never have too much.

Ammo was the first thing that came to mind but , Silver .....at today's price is a great investment. Other things I would also consider is a "Leatherman" tool of some type. Knives , hatchets and axes are pretty cool to own too ! I don't have any idea what they cost but , you could always get firearm related "TATTOO". :!:
