There are lots more. Then also, the re-loading and so on. Spare parts, mags it goes on and on. I also collect higher end knives.

My '02 F-150 both gas and upgrades, my guns, kid, dogs, house, and oddly enough my job lol (I have to buy my own tools)

Guns like to eat ....

Guns and most definitely my Dodge Durango... tuff on gas!! But I love driving the thing!

Shooting and training. this year consisted of 10 -12 $150 classes and 2 $500 dollar classes. rounds for each class ranged from 500- 1200 depending. Plus travel time, gas, hotel, food, range stuff.

Add on to that buying optics, rails, lights holsters and gear.

Crap adds up quick

Man I did forget some. To add, my house, 08' Ram w/mods, just did an oil changa which cost me $56 bux. My two pitbulls, who eat like crazy and go through rawhides as quick as I can turn around. And a [email protected] $1200 dentist bill for a new crown.

What classes are you talking about? Are you doing those shooting institute and combat trainer classes?

For the last eight months I've been focused on handguns and accessories. After I got my CPL I had to buy a few guns and I got lucky because I really didn't know what I was doing but I bought classic guns. Next I had to buy ammo inventory and today I've got a minimum of 1,000 rounds each of .380, 9mm & .45. When that was over I focused on holsters and it took a good two months to figure that all out. Lately my fun has been buying grips for my 1911's, and I bought a nice camera to take photos of all the stuff. What a blast it's been.

My first wife.
That's why no more in the future.
she always (wants) buys something

1.Offshore Fishing Boat
2.Guns
3.Scuba Diving
4.Freshwater Fishing Boat
5.Skydiving

1 & 2 are real close! The old saying: "A boat is a hole in the water, surrounded by fiberglas into which you pour money".
Scuba diving would not be on the list at all, except for my wife!
Sky jumping would be higher on the list, except for my wife!

Wife,kids,ammo and up till today a 2001 ford taurus James Bond Edition ,you know smoke screen ,oilslick ,and the occasional special FX gun sound of a back fire.

Sold it so i could buy a truck.Not sure if it will be a ford or chevy but anything is better then that car.

Outside of shooting irons and shooting iron accessories, grills/smokers and their accessories seem to get most of my attention...

...and my money.
