It looks like the Federal Gov. is going to send each American a check for $1000 within the next 2 weeks to help with the economic hits from the China virus. Do I see some new Smith & Wesson purchases on the horizon??
Before everyone falls prey to the Counting-Your-Chickens-Before-They-Hatch Syndrome and starts spending money they don't have yet, note that as of right now it's only being proposed to send citizens a thousand bucks.
"Looking at" and "possibly" are the key words there.
It's more than a little hard for me to believe that our government...you know, that entity that everyone's always whining about because of its delays in doing just about anything...can print, address, mail, and deliver x-millions of checks to American households within a two-week time frame. I'll believe it when I see it.
If it comes through I'll throw it in the savings account. I figure that they'll take that much or more back from me at some point, depending on who gets elected. It's not a matter of if but when.
Nothing's free, into the bank it'll go.
Then again, that'd get lotsa super premium cigars. Maybe a new grill. A big humidor that I can keep all my cigars in instead of a cooler and a 50 count humidor.
Then again, there's always snubby shopping.....

Oh yeah! I've already thinned the heard but I have since discovered how badly I NEED the 8-shot Double Action S&W .22lr revolver. I B keepin' my eyes peeled for the next gun show. But until then I'll be a watchin' the mailbox! ;-)
