Default I have an addiction...

Bought a Springfield Armory Range Officer 1911 .45 ACP today. I have rule of buying no more than two per year - one rifle or shotgun, and one pistol. I broke that rule today, and the year isn't over yet. It's hard to pass up a good deal though. I picked up a JR carbine in July, and a Glock G29SF in September. I really need to stay away from the gun stores for a while.

You are not the only one who has a "Problem". Now some people will say that Air Rifles are not "real guns", but grumpy has a few that will take down a deer. To me, that is a real gun.

I am the spouse of a man with an addiction.

I know the feeling, my father inlaw is a licensed gun dealer and cerified reloader so guns always come up at a great deal.

Reloading is something I want to get into. Just no room for it currently.

Nancy, it is a good addiction to have. It could be worse... drugs, booze, gambling, and loose women. (Although, those might be cheaper than automobiles and firearms.)

I wish some of us lived closer, we could get together for a monthly range day.

I agree it might be cheaper than the car. But you wanna keep your woman happy and he knows how to treat me well, so I can put up with the guns.

When I get down there in Floriduh, maybe we can get together and fire off some rounds. I have the same addiction.
