You know you have a cool boss when he says "I don't care what you do as long as there's a spindle turning" So yes I get paid to reload.

You just made yourself easier to manage by giving him a guarantee you'll be getting full duty out of the machines. No, not just the blue ones. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What do you do there (besides reload ammo ;^D) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Had the same deal except I built and modified my Ar-15 and machined parts for 1911 and 2011 hand guns. Nice to have CNC machinery at your disposal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gm iprod Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 You come home from the Bianchi Cup and need three extra suitcases for all the goodies you bought. Then have to leave a bottle of George Dickel 12yr old whiskey out as you just did not have the room. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
openclassterror Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Haha! I had to finish a half bottle of Jack Daniels in the airport after the 3GN SW regionals because I had so many goodies crammed in my luggage. And I couldn't let it go to waste! I remember very little of the 4 hour flight........... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Modoc Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I find my time on the home computer being spent more on gun club business than anything else. Of course it is easier to get into BE that way. Modoc Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SM1986 Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Speaking of cordless drills .... I just caught myself the other day carrying my drill down the hallway with a noticeably straight trigger finger. That made me laugh when I realized what was going on. .....or when the battery dies.....you release it, let it fall to the ground (and break) and realize your already sweeping to your belt for your next mag....uh, I mean battery.

drewbeck Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 And when you realize the reason you're a far better at weak hand only than strong hand only shooting is because you're left handed (but right eyed) and have been running a drill with your "weak" hand your entire life. Wanting to improve your shooting, you switch your primary driling hand as a form of "dry fire" training to improve your shooting but this in turn makes you a much less effective drill "operator" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Modoc Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 And your coworkers know it by the amount of plain brown paper bags that show up at your desk with miscellaneous shooting supplies and ammunition. Usually from a family estate or found in their new house. [emoji6] Today's donation was a Midway Shooter's Vice. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wblacksh Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 I think the best I have heard ( and which I have been guilty of ) is when you pick up and save brass for firearms you do not even own....yet.

38superman Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Everyone you know wants you to load ammo for them. Even when you meet new people, the conversation starts with "What calibers can you load?" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RevoWood123 Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 You go to the range with a new gun and you have more tools than a snap-on truck and enough ammo to shoot 5 matches. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
