He does side work (builds cabinets) to finance his "toys" that he wants/needs. He gives the wife her cut to buy the things she wants, so, she's content.
All of this came up a few times after he bought the Sport II, but, just yesterday, it really became a "NEED NOW" situation.
So, I called S&W this AM and they ONLY sell the upper assembly for $830. They also stated that they make their own barrels. I passed this information onto my cousin and, low and behold, he said he will be calling S&W sometime today (he's at work) and will be ordering an upper assembly! SMFH X100!
