I hope everyone spends theirs local and in the small businesses of your county or the State of Texas.
First I will pay the tax on it.
After that I am buying 2 holsters. Both from Tucker Gun Leather. Both I really need.
Then I am buying a pair of shoes from a local Lufkin small business owner that I am friends with. I don't really NEED another pair right now but will have it when I need them and he will need the $$s for sure.
Then I am buying 2 Belts. One each from 2 young guys that have started leather work shop here in Angelina County.
If this goes over whatever I get I will still make up the rest.
These things will be my reminder of what our God has brought us through.
If I have some left over I will find a local place to spend it.

How bout you. Any plans on arms or gear???
Many of us won't get one, which basically means they're taking money from us and giving it to everyone who is getting one.
Agree with 03lightning above. If I get one and dont know for sure if I will but I pd in all yr + self employment tax as a Pastor. They are just giving me back only some of what they took

Re: Tractor ideas

This may be the first time it's been an advantage to be a lefty. :lol: For handgun, you might look at shifting your holster position back a little to the 4-5 O'clock position as that gets the width of the gun off the point of your hip and [for me anyway] keeps you from banging it on stuff. Also [again for me] it's actually very comfortable that far back... but I mostly carry single stacks.
Did not know that & will check that out for sure. As far as moving it back I can't do that. The worse my arthritis gets the more I need it at 3:30. any farther back and I cant get it out w/o a very canted holster.

I will go look at that spot as soon as I get through here.
Thank you flechero

All that is local so will help the local small business. Never thought about self payback. I do have a DC-3 ordered from Tucker right now and yesterday evening late after church I did manage to use old parts and leather from 4 holsters and build an ugly but very functional Chesty Puller rig so I can stay armed while on the tractor. We are really starting to see crime escalate here in Angelina County. I live on the daughters 20+ acres but am very visible and just off the oil top rd. Don't like it when I have had to put one in the tractor tool box and not on my person. Bucket and blade controls hang a holster getting on and off. Huuumm, that may be another thread though.

Just a little jealous is all. :tiphat:

Edited....

I'm super thankful to be in a position that I don't need it, but I do wish I could say I was buying a XXXX with my check!
flechero I am thankful to be in the same. Prolly not as well off as MANY but we don't need much either. That is why I am going to put it where it will help others. I know Tucker Gunleather has been passed to a younger guy several years ago. The shoe store friend only bought it in December. He is in pretty tough shape. The 2 guys I will get the belts from are young too and just starting. One has a day job and works evenings and nights getting started. We are both 70+ a little and have a heart for the younger working generation.

Stimulus checks

I have been thinking about what to do with the stimulus check we are supposed to get. For sure I won't spend it til I get it in hand.
