    Number three: A brass 9mm cleaning jag, $2.35. I typically use this almost every cleaning session, to push a wet patch through the barrel. Then follow with a clean one:

    It will get worse I suspect.

    I actually "need" the punches since I buggered up the lower grip panel roll pin on my J-Frame putting on a larger more controllable grip for others who may shoot the gun.
    At some point< I will have to "push" out the flattened, dremel cut remains of that pin out.

    I’ll probably end up buying another KAC SR15.

    I am looking at a Smith and Wesson Pre-Model 27 3.5" N-frame. I suspect it was modified by somebody famous in the late 1970's or early 1980's. If I am correct, you'll all see pictures here.

    Some things rarely lose value.

    I am also buying back into the market in April. I think we'll see one more big dip in 2-3 weeks, and that's when I'll be like a hog at the trough.

    But let's see what's sitting in my tabs for retail therapeutic needs which are split broadly into two categories:

    Motorcycle Stuff

    A 1981 BMW R65 Approximately $2700 worth of riding gear from Revzilla - www.revzilla.com

    Car Stuff

    About $5000 worth of parts from KMiata for my Sunbeam swap - https://kmiata.com/
    Very nice BMW. I've had several boxers but never an R65. I always thought they were pretty close to perfect for a weekend cruise. My neighbor just sold his K bike. He damn near had to give it away and it was in very good condition. The twins are iconic and always will be. I got hooked on those around 1984 when I bought my first one, R100 CS. I know a guy that I worked with who has an R75/7 that he bought new. Step son has an R80 GS.

    Trying to convince myself to buy an Aimpoint PRO instead of a Romeo 5 or other similar budget red dot for a NIB 6920 I picked up before the madness start. Have half been expecting a call back from the person who sold it to me wanting to buy it back.

    Also taking advantage of that Arc'teryx deal referenced earlier.
