T's had .380 ACP FMJ reloads for about $17 per 50 rounds today.

I bought their entire stock. :mrgreen: (kidding)

As a special bonus, get this: I go to Texas City for the first time in something like six months, spend three minutes in T's, and run into El Gato. He looks good.

Wow, small world. Tom is a nice fellow. Did you get a chance to visit with him for a while?

Glad you got some 380 gun food. One of my 380 eaters is now in Colorado being worked on so I have plenty of 380 for now :fire

Tom was the guy who taught my wife and I to shoot and who we took our CHL class with. Great guy. Didn't I read that he was in Fort Hood during the shootings? Is he OK?

I don't recall that he was in Ft. Hood at that time. In any case, I didn't see any visible bullet holes. ;-)

That guy has more lives than any two cats.

Minor ( additional ) info on the Texas City range.

They're closed on Mondays / Tuesdays to the public.
They allow any legal caliber firearm with the exception of Full Auto. ( suppressors are ok )
Bring a flamethrower for the mosquitoes ( they can be bad this time of year :D ) or at least some sort of repellent.
When the wind blows from the South, the water treatment plant will tickle your nose a bit
Non-resident ( ie you don't live in Texas City ) memberships run about $150 / year
T's is on the way in or out :D Stop by and support the local economy !
