Same thing
holds true for brass. I didn't own a 45 acp years ago and had no desire for one but... Our local police department practices at our range and never retrieves brass. I started picking up the new brass thinking I would find someone who needed it.
After a while I noticed that I had over 2,000 once fired 45 acp brass and I had to make a decision about what to do with it. You guessed it - I bought a 45 acp and now own three of them. In addition, my son has one and one of my grandsons has one. I can keep the progressive press pretty busy now recycling all of the 45 acp brass. I have made a deliberate point of NOT picking up any of the 40 S&W brass that appears regularly after a police department practice session, however! I will bet that I am not the only one who has bought a gun for this same reason!

extractor....
thanks, good to know! I may wind up selling it anyway to fund my next .358 Winchester barrel, a project that's been too long in the waiting.
