    Maybe an AK and some ammo, or another glock 19 and ammo. And bills.

    Most of it is just going back in the bank, but I may add another SAR-1... not sure why, but I've had the urge to buy another one.

    Supposed to be getting $2700 back. I'm going to put on all new brakes, rotors/drums, wheel cylinders, braided stainless extended brake lines, and new brake slave cylinder on the Suburban, buy a couple thousand rounds of ammo, and put the rest in the bank. If I'm feeling squirrely, I might pick up a lower receiver for my A1 AR15 upper, too. However, new brakes for the Suburban are the priority, and I am going to keep my purchases under $1000 total. Basically, the ammount of gun stuff I purchase depends on whatever is left over from my $1000 limit.

    Putting it in the bank....or safe. With interest rates the way they are, I like the security of being able to open up the safe and touch it rather than making $3.47/year with it sitting in the account.

    Although, I may splurge and get another 3K of good green tip .223 from AIM.

    Hopefully this return is going to go a long ways towards squaring up all the loose financial ends of my divorce.

    I, usually, end up paying. So, since some of you guys are getting my money, it would be real nice if you would send some ammo my way just as a show of appreciation for all I do.

    That sucks Flinter.

    Ours will probably go towards bills. Or, I am sure my wife will find some way to spend it!

    IF I was getting a tax return back, I'd be buying one of those Chiappa 357's....

    When I started my own practice 8 years ago, my accountant refuses to let me loan money to the government.... The first couple years, I didn't understand this as I always looked forward to getting that refund check back... but it was my money all long, all I was doing was let the govt. borrow it, they never gave me interest on it.

    Refund returns for most people are nothing more than a forced savings plan for you.

    My account told me that if I wanted $2400 bucks each year to buy a couple guns or whatever to simply write him a $200 check every month and he'd give it back to me at the end of the year... that's what uncle sugar is doing to you! Unfortunately if you don't have your own business with standard write-offs and expenses month to month, you can't anticipate how much you'll write off by year's end, which is why uncle sugar takes more and gives back, if it were the other way around, uncle sugar would be begging a lot harder to get it back.

    For those of you who file the short form with minimal deductions... did you know that you can write off up to something like $200-250 bucks each year for clothing you donate to goodwill/church? Same goes for furniture... you could get an additional $500 bucks back each year for these two simple deductions... and the best part is, you don't have to have receipts for such a small amount! Anything over the $200-250 (you'll have to check, its one or the other) amount, you have to have a receipt... there's a line that asks for how you determined value, all you you have to write down is "thrift store averages". My accountant taught me that one.

    I'm getting a new carry gun. A CZ75 compact decocker (also known as a "PCR") in 9mm. I won it on gunbroker for $325 + $15 shipping! Not too shabby for a good used CZ! I need to call the dealer and pay for it monday.

    Here's a picture of it from the auction though:

    I was thinking about getting a C93
    But I haven't heard anthing pro or con about them (they are from Centerfire after all).

    Does anybody think its worth the $500 plus? I've always wanted one of these and this price is perfect.

    We will be paying again this year. Saw a C93 at a gunshow in Atlanta this weekend. I was impressed by the fit and finish. Didn't look like something Century would put out.
