Private sales are 21 in TX?

Don't you have to be 21 to buy a handgun?

From an FFL, private sales are 18, thats how i got my revolver. In 9 days im 21 and can go to a store and get one. FFL age is set federally, private sale at state level, check what your state is at.

I would have been spending FAL money anyways.

My father is probably going to buy my 1911 from me to keep in his car after he sells the Ruger Blackhawk we got for free and the Winchester 1200 we bought from a former friend. After that, I'll be on the lookout for a 645 or a better 1911

I turned 26 today. I already miss being 25. Plus, I couldn't really celebrate because the first draft of my Master's thesis is due on the 29th and I'm incredibly busy right now. :(

That blows. Why don't you just celebrate after you are finished?

Happy birthday. I turned 27 last month (I feel 37 sometimes). Celebrate it when you can, even if it's late.

Happy birthday this forum should have a heads up feature or something.

If you look at the calender it lists upcoming birthdays

what calendar?
