Heres the history

New CZ 75 PCR arrived at the gun shop today, I know this because I've closely watched its path across many states via tracking number.

After clinicals today I'm all excited to get to the gun shop to pick it up and run 200 rounds through it that i had aready purchased days prior. I rush home to change clothes and get everything ready. I decide to give the GS a call and see how late their open. Come to find out their closed on Thursday! Son of a ***** ****** **** ****** ****!!

Now what??? I can't be the only one who gets this excited!!!

How do you pass time in a situation like this?

This^. Patience is a virtue, and it's hard to hate spending a night with some Blanton's and your favorite stogie. If you're looking for a recommendation, try a Camacho Triple Maduro or Alec Bradley's Prensado churchill. Either one will make your day.

Re: How to pass time while waiting on a toy

Good work gentleman!!! Made it through the night but went a little cheaper route.
Crown royal on the rocks while watching all the you tube videos of CZ's over again.

The holster search continues and I'll let the gun tell me which ammo it loves.
I'm playing the sights by ear haven't decided what to do yet.

4.5 hours of work left then the sprint to gun shop!

P.s As for a real gun......cough cough. I'm holding off on the 1911 purchase till graduation.... gift to my self
I know I'm still a young guy in the gun world but I think the cz is worth a little excitement

This but expanded to EVERYTHING gun related. I ordered an integrally suppressed CZ to be made back in January and still isn't at my SOT. I got tired of just waiting on that so I ordered a S&B in March. I got that so I turned my attention to an RCBS Chargemaster and got that. Then I turned to a DTA SRS and ordered that last week. NOW I'm already perusing the for sale sections looking towards rebarrelling and sprucing up my stock R700, Giraud trimmers, 1911s, Dillon presses, and aything else...

And all the while I'm still waiting on my CZ, haha.
 
Re: How to pass time while waiting on a toy

lmao, i had a bunch of bolt guns pending about a year ago and said i would never do it again... yep fast forward and all the ones i was waiting on are here and i have another 3 gap's, a DTA, and two r700's pending again

along with a can, 2 1911's being built, a AK, saiga, ebr.... list probably goes on but i can't remember.

^^^ something tells me you guys have already got a little ed-u -ma-cation and are making more $$$ per hour then this guy. I don't have the patience to wait as long as you guys do either for toys. Must come with age I hope.

Don't remind me of the charge master I need to make that purchase asap.

I just budget well for what I <span style="font-weight: bold">REALLY</span> want, haha. I'm 25, single (biiiiig factor), and have a really low house payment. So while it might be nice to get a new mower, couches, etc. I make do with what I got and save that money for furthering my addiction!
 
Re: How to pass time while waiting on a toy

Welp to make a long story short I was forced to work late but still made it to the gs to pick it up.

200 rounds of white box and no hiccups or anything. Love it 100%
