I'm looking at picking up a Fire 7. This is a tablet commonly used by action shooting clubs for scoring matches [via Practiscore] because it doesn't break the bank.

Anyone or any clubs also looking at picking up Fire 7s?

Amazon has a group purchase of three 7s for $120, which is a saving of $10 each. I'm all for saving $10 if possible.

If anyone is interested, PM me. I'm in the 'springs. Only intersted in handling an order of three total. If I get more I'll put the other folks together to do their own group order.

Ps. Dibs on the yellow one! :)

Amazon Prime Day is the best time to buy Amazon devices. Should be coming up again around July.

Amazon runs those for $39.99 about every other month, just watch for the ads on their front page


Edit: $34.99 today for prime members

Well crap. Nevermind, I just ordered one.

Ps. BTW, At least with my 8" model it's pretty easy to follow some hacks and get the full Google Play Store on them.

I did the same thing on my 7. Took about 10 minutes.

So funny related story about hacking on the Fire 7 to get Google Play:

I bought a Fire Tablet for my son when he turned 6. He loved using my phone to ask Google questions. The kid's software wouldn't let him get some of the apps he liked on our phone, and it wouldn't let him get Google assistant. So in my brilliance, I poked a hole in the 'Freetime' App and side-loaded Google assistant and the Temple Run and Jelly Jump apps. I was super proud of myself. I handed it back to him, and the first thing he did was ask it about one of his favorite Pokemon:

Son: "OK Google, tell me about Venusaur"
Google: "Show me pictures of penis sores."

Almost had a heart attack trying to snatch it back from him for some more 'adjustments'.
