BAG Day, 2005 – I Jumped the Gun a Little.

…so to speak. I put off doing my taxes a bit longer than normal, and because of a little complexity I had them done professionally rather than doing it myself this year. So today we went to the accountant and ran all the numbers.

I contributed a bit more to the non-interest-bearing payroll savings plan than I had expected. The refunds, both state and federal, will be substantial.

So, with my wife’s blessing I went out and bought my BAG Day gun. It’s not for my wife. Really. I passed on the beautiful S&W model 25 Mountain Gun in .45LC ($699), and instead went for a 3″ S&W .357 Model 60, used, with adjustable sights and the green Hi-Vis fiberoptic front sight, complete with Hogue monogrip. But it’s not hers. She doesn’t want one.

But when I’m gone on a business trip, this little beauty, filled with five Federal 125 grain .38 Nyclads, will be in the quick-access safe for her.

Edited to add: By request, also using my crappy little camera, a picture of said Model 60:
