i didn't want to threadjack lee's "gear" thread - but it reminded me of this so i started a new one. i did a little bartering this week.

wifey is getting this for christmas!

Taurus 380 Mini Ultra-Lite just a shade over 15oz. & chambered in .380 (which i have a lot of)

i did a couple of radio commercials for a guy opening a new indoor range and made the trade for this & a years worth of range time!

That is one SWEET snubnose, Todd! I'm jealous.

I've mentioned in the past about a couple of my barters; for a guitar and coffee.

Got a new one in this week. Been voicing 'virtual tours' lately of commercial properties (e.g.: hotels, hospitals, etc) for some friends who have been paying me the going rates, but we're working out a deal for a weekend stay for me and the wife at this place in exchange for a v/o:

One of my past clients was Smith & Wesson. But they gave me money instead of a gun. Money's good.

So cool. I hope she'll like it! That wouldn't happen in my house. Oh, I want a gun but the big guy says no.

I voice for Remington Arms and one day had to do Remington & Victoria's Secret in back to back sessions. That would have been a pretty cool barter...

Sensible gift in Cartersville, Illinois considering the crime rate there.

Wait. There's a crime rate in Cartersville??

i would posit that the crime rate is, indeed, low because everybody knows that everybody else has a gun. there is no better burglar alarm than the sound a remington 870 pump makes when you jack a round into the chamber. it, quite clearly, says --- go away.
