    1 per 30 problem

    I think I have a 1 per 30 problem, every time I go to pick up I take a lap through the gun room and find something to put a deposit on....

    Surely I cant be alone? Im picking up tomorrow, hopefully they don't have anything on consignment that I can't resist...

    If it's on consignment it's a empty wallet problem for me not a 1 in 30.

      Yeah but at my LGS, it needs to be in the shop for at least 30 days before you can DROS it... so there's always some sort of wait...

        I had both of those problems last year during the sse crazy. This year, I've only bought 2 and plan maybe 2-3 more. But it will probably end up being 5-6 more.

          I have dedicated areas in our safe room for some customers. They normally have at least 3 guns lined up.

            Sometimes I wonder if the 1:30 rule is to protect our wallets from our impulses... hah.

                It happens to men when you reach a certain age, typically 21. Women have a menstual cycle. Men have a DROS cycle. It's just the cycle of Life.

                  That was me last year. Haven't bought anything yet this year other than an ar pistol upper. Feeling very poor after last year.

                      Not much of a problem.

                      I take a lap, find the guns I want to buy, buy some ammo, walk out the door, and put the money I saved by buying ammo instead of guns towards accumulating wealth instead of stuff. Plus I get to practice shooting instead of buying.

                        I too had that little "problem" last year with SSE. I am in remission for now.

                            I disagree. One is a natural biological function. The other is based on a tyrannical government. One is designed to generate life. The other is designed to destroy it.

                            They're not liberals, they're leftists. Please don't use the former for the latter. Liberals are Locke, Jefferson, Burke, Hayek. Leftists are progressives, Prussian state-socialists, fascists. Liberals stand against the state and unequivocally support liberty. Leftists support state tyranny.

                              Not a problem for me as I don't like any of the on roster guns. Now, if SSE was still active...
