That's a good choice. I've got a Sig SP2022 40cal that I'm very happy with and they are reasonably priced when you can find them.

Nice. Wish I were getting a refund this year. The XDSC is a great choice.

I would have loved to purchased a new firearm with my check. I had plans on it, but we spent $1,000 on some oral surgery for the wife, $400 for a new stove, $500 on a condo in Destin for a family vacation this year, and the rest is in saving.

I guess we need to have a few more kids so I can get back enough for a gun. :D

The only way to really improve on that: 2 XD subcompacts. :P

Or maybe some Trijicon night sights on it.

I'm lost,you mean to tell me the Gov gives you money back.Whats the catch.

J/K All of those are great items to spend a refund on,the Condo in Destin sounds like a heck of a deal.

We spent our tax refund on a Kobra Carry and a SIG556 DMR...oh, and a 642 w/LASER grips for her.

Could you rub that in a bit more, i'm still jealous because of your show and tell:cry:. Shoot the dmr yet? I want one, maybe they'll make a sig762 or something.

Not rubbing it in. I'm just proud. :D

I haven't shot it yet because I just got the scope mounts last week, and the frigg'n range was packed. I'm going to try Hobson Pike again this Saturday after I load a few 75gr Hornady's for it.

The Kobra Carry is certainly more accurate than I am, so when I miss I can only point the finger at myself. It did digest some heavy +P's without a hiccup.

Haha! I still haven't figured out why we can't claim the Federal gov't as a dependent...

I spent part of my tax return on my G26. The wife spent part on her camera. We also put a set of Nittos on my truck and paid off a credit card. We should really adjust our tax withholdings.

how do you get money back . I get to pay in more .:hiding:

Posted

Jealous! And I'm with y'all that are paying in more. But, it meant that more of MY money stayed in my pocket instead of being loaned to the government, interest free. I like the idea of claiming the gov as a dependent!!:D

Check out the TruGlo TFOs - I put them on my XDm, and love them. I haven't found a set of light conditions where they didn't perform. The combination of fiber-optic and tritium is very nice for range and home use.

Semi-related, but back to taxes - I shoot for a near-zero tax return every year. It's not as much fun as getting that big check come February, but knowing that the IRS didn't get an interest-free loan from me makes it all worthwhile. Those guys never even say thank you or buy breakfast when they're done with you, so I try to keep every cent I earn mine, and make sure we settle up at the end of the year. They can get their free rides from somebody else. YMMV.
