I'm late a few days but hear me out.

So I'm one of those Northeast divers that actually dives. My Hollis HD200 has over 8 years and 500 dives on it, it was time. It was worn and I'm becoming a more serious bunny diver so I'm moving into a more custom setup.



New Boi on the right. Hollis Elite 2 system with steel backplate and ST35 Wing.

It's a step up from the more recreational focused HD200. Nothing but good things to say of the HD200 though. But I'm at a point that, when I'm deep in a wreck, I want things custom to me and my style.

Going to pick up an aluminum plate as well for travel.

First gun in a while and my first Walther! Wasn't looking to get it but it was on sale for a good price at the FFL and thought "You know, I can be a secret agent too. All I need to do is lose weight, get mad training, and maybe become a decade younger. But I could totally do it. Besides, James Bond is pushing what 65-70 years old now?"

Not a carry piece and barely even a range toy. But it's a nice conversation piece if I do say so myself.

Watch those magnets. They're no joke.

Watch those magnets. They're no joke.

I used one once to pick up a bunch of nails from a demo. This is my 2nd. I find a lot of used for various shaped magnets.


I like having some pliers, scissors, etc handy on the work bench. Magnet works good for that.

I bought my first wheel gun today.

Smith & Wesson 637-2

 

[1075tech]

Sold the 442 in the grocery store parking lot. I had bought it for the mrs a few years ago but she never did like it.



Then drove an hour to a Home Depot parking lot and picked up a 365X.

New speakers for the deck. All the tweeters in my Polk speakers fell apart. NY winters suck.

They are a lot bigger than I thought they were.

My wife likes her Charter Arms snubnose, but it also has a hammer.

I didn’t get them today, but yesterday & last week…..

I never was too much into shotguns, but lately I’ve had a growing interest. I’ve always liked coach guns, but never wanted to spend the money on one.

Recently, I decided to expand my shotgun ownership, so last week I picked up a very good condition Remington 11-87 & yesterday I picked up a Stoeger coach gun, both in 12Ga. The 11-87 I found on consignment locally and the coach gun came from Gunbroker.

Love my coach gun. All kinds of fun.

added a holosun SCS to the “raceglock”. Initial impressions are good and I’m excited to try it out and compare it to my delta point pro.

Last month, my 94 year old neighbor passed away.
Today his son stopped by with a gift for me from his father.

My neighbor knew his time was short and they were sorting through some of his stuff. He gave this to his son and told him to give it to me and that I’d know what to do with it:

A cigar box with a couple dozen old 12ga slugs and birdshot shells in it - all labeled “extra long range”.

None of the rest of their family are gun people, so he wanted me to have them.

I might just use some of them to break in my new coach gun.





God only knows how old these things are - I’m sure White Owl cigars haven’t been 10¢ in a while.

I’ve been eyeing that pole saw. I’d be interested in hearing your thoughts on it.
