I use a CPA because of the investments and other factors in my life.

Be wary of people who say they can get you a bigger refund if they aren't willing to explain how to adjust your W4 so you end up owing each year.

My guy loves TurboTax, H&R Block, and Jackson-Hewett -- loves them in the sense that each year a number of people come in with issues and he has to fix what each has screwed up.

I quit using TurboTax because they have to keep sending updates & patches well past April 15th. Screw that nonsense. A good CPA is well worth the money, especially since he/she will be your defense against possible IRS action.

I've used H&R Block online for the last 5 years, never have had a problem with the IRS, just takes them a lil while to process my return.

I like the Sig Sauer.

Getting my state refund on Sunday! Not sure what I'm doing with it yet. Truck needs shocks, rotors, an alignment and I'd bet new tie rods... And of course the transmission dilemma

How's that mosquito function, my brother has one and its is picky as hell on ammo and only likes to be run wet. Fun for plinking though. He got it because it was like a mini version of his 226.

And when I get my taxes I'm probrably putting it toward bills

Haven't shot it yet. It came with a different spring for a lower velocity ammo. I got her to boxes of CCI we will run through it. I'll report back in the gun thread we have once I do

I've got a mosquito. of the 2 springs that come with it, the stiffer spring won't operate it with any ammo. the weaker stock spring works ok with CCI or Federal Match (which is not too bad expensive).

I bought a couple of replacement stock springs and experimented with cutting off 1-2 rounds of spring to shorten and weaken it. it worked well and allows it to shoot the cheaper federal 550 brick.
