Most $$$ you've put into a gun over time.

It’s easy to do with a $550 light combo $300+ irons and a decent stock and grip. Heaven forbid I have to buy more geissele h2 or h3 buffer tubes
Yep! Just purchased a Surefire Scout with pressure pad and tailcap from a member here, a new FDE ACOG and RMR combo, and a Keymo suppressor mount. Hopefully buying a Geissele trigger from a member here this week as well.
 
I’ve been wanting to try the PSA two stage trigger that measures about 3.5-4lbs. They’re $89 dollars. Looking at the tooling it’s made by Schmidt so the quality is there. Mike on Garand Thumb mentions them in his JAKL video. I just have a hard time not buying the name brand gear. I always end up taking a budget build and putting way to much money in it.
 
Here's my latest money pit. Bushmaster ACR. New ACOG w/RMR, Surefire Scout light, Steiner DBAL, Unity dual pressure pad, Troy offset flip ups, and Geissele trigger. I had most all of the accessories en route before I ever picked up the rifle.

How much does she have invested in shoes and purses? Mine said the same thing and then bought a Louis Vuitton bag. She's not allowed to chime in on my gun buying habits anymore....
If my wife bought a Louis Vuitton I might have to use one of my overpriced guns on her.
Unless she pinky-swears she got it at the consignment shop.
 
My wife told me the other day that she felt $5,000 for a pistol was a little excessive.

my wife and I get an "allowance". We earn different amounts, but each get the same spending money every month. She doesn't get to give me any crap for how I spend mine, and I don't give her crap on how she spends hers. Takes any gun/gear drama right out of the equation.
 
My wife's a redneck, her purse holds her public defender rather nicely and she has twice as many pairs of boots than shoes. I told her I'd let her shoot my new pistol so she's happy and life is good.
