Not my picture, but you get the idea. Bought+shot two boxes at the range yesterday.
That's what I need to get.
Edit to add: I bought a Mec-Gar S&W 59 series 17-round magazine. I don't have my own picture since I haven't received it yet so I hope this will do.
Just bought the car kit off amazon, paid £6 for it to be delivered in a week!!! I feel robbed! This thing better be good, after watching a few reviews on youtube bit worried!!

Come on apple! when will i ever get my Magic Mouse ):?? I don't understand why it takes so long if they already have them shipping with the new iMacs..
Ever think most of their stock is going towards people buying iMacs? This is something you can't buy your way into ... patience. People are going without a lot more than a mouse.
My Acer netbook wasn't adequate enough for my needs, so I replaced it with a 13" Mac Book Pro. It's the high end 2.53 GHz model with 4GB RAM and 250 GB HD. Really like it alot and this should definitely last longer than the Acer. The back-lit keyboard is also a convenient touch as I often use the laptop in dark environments.

those headphones look dopee..how's quality compared to beats by dre tours?
Grado SR-60i headphones. Finally got around to replace my disintegrating old Sony cans. Wish I'd pulled the trigger sooner: the Grados sound about twenty billion times better than those Sonys ever did.
My brother just got those a week ago :O
Anyway, here's the last album I bought, which is on sale on Itunes for $7.99
As for non-album purchases...
Yep, just got my latest Ipod a few weeks ago through Amazon for $150. Since I promised my parents that I'd use it for Itunes U, they paid for half of it
I have the Bose and have extensively listened to the Beats. The Beats (in my personal opinion) are utter garbage price wise. The Beats should be nothing more than $70CND at most.
The Bose are good, but I also believe they're a bit overpriced. Regular, $129.99CND, but you can almost always find them for 99.99CDN on sale, which is still a bit too much for what they are, but still better than Beats.
The one problem with Beats is the bass. It's absolutely overruled by treble, and I definitely need a good bass kicking when I listen to trance and the such. The Bose give a good kick, but they are absolutely unreliable. It seems like it's hit or miss quality when you buy Bose. I take good care of my headphones, but my Bose left plug lost connection, thus no sound. Super annoying.
A good bang for your buck is the Shure SE115's, usually found for $139.99CDN, but like the Bose, almost always on sale for $99 or $89, which makes them 100% worth it.
They're one of the lower end models. I owned the Shure SE210 which retail for $239.99 and they were absolutely garbage. Brought them back a week after giving them a shot, grabbed the SE115's and haven't looked back.
Only problem, the Shures are a bit unreliable too. My extension cable that comes with almost all Shure ear buds is on the fritz, so I haven't been able to use them much, which absolutely sucks.
Wow, why did I say all of that?

The bose are indeed overpriced - however I got mine for $30 =)
I will be comparing them to another set of pricey (but not overpriced) Yuin Pk2s, which I think are AMAZING. I used to be a big shure fan, but since I let go of the Shure SE530, I have found greener pastures elsewhere.
Picked up 10 ibook lids hahah on ebay to mod some hackintoshes with a glowing apple...inspiration in the link!
