OT - Tax Rebate = New Firearms..?

Post by deerwhacker444 »

.
With the tax rebates coming out in May, what's everyone planning on doing with it?

I'm thinking it's not money I've counted or banked on, so I might as well get another firearm I don't need.

Thoughts..?

Tax rebate = prom dress, graduation party, propane bill, medical bills, etc,etc, etc.... :(

That and the fact that my wife says I have too many guns now. Silly wife. Hope she never finds out how many there really are. 8)

"Tax Rebate" = government weasel word for "giving you back some of the money we stole.

In my case it goes immediately back to them to cover the amount that they think I still owe them after withholding.

You want to hear the funny part about the tax rebate. You are going to have to claim it on your taxes :x . My wife was looking in to it to see how much we are getting and there it was in black and white.

Wifey-poo has already suggested: My half of the rebate = new .22 Mag 4" DA SS revolver. :mrgreen:

It's on order now, but the distributors, including Davidson's, are all "out of stock" on it. :roll:

I'm fine in the firearms department. Actually sold two this week.

I'm probably going to use some of the money for reloading supplies and a couple of holsters.

Oh yeah, those "rebates" are taxable income. :evil:

if bush wanted to help the middle class, he would pass a law to make overtime tax exempt. the harder u work the more money you would keep. no taxes on earned income after 40 hours worked a week. seems capitalism pertains to the working poor. the ultra rich fall under socialist program

Tom, I had asked the voices to tell you to send all your guns to me. Sounds like they are not doing as instructed! :wink:

I've got a couple guns I'd love to buy with it.

BUT .......

Most likely it will be put back for needed vehicle repairs.
