    Handgun Wait Support Group Thread

    I bought a new handgun last week and have 4 more days to go until I can pick it up. The days seem to go by so slow!

    Anyone else in their 10 day waiting period?

    Ahh... yes the 10 day wait. I dont know what it is but the 10 day waits just kill me. I have found that it helps to spend the 10 days buying all the acc. you can find for your new baby so that when it does come home it feels comfortable with teh others.

    I can go pick up my newest toy on Monday. Everything should have arrived by then

                  I'm waiting on a rifle - 4 days, 15 hours to go.............

                  Scope is coming in the mail, it should get here about the same time..............

                  My Buyer's Guide and all my magazine articles just don't have meaning any more. The decision has been made.

                    This is sadly true. Treasure those feelings, after while it's just another gun. . .

                        I really do miss the feeling I got a few years ago when I picked up a gun
                        it was so awesome
                        now they just feel like tools
                        its still cool but its like getting a set of snapons

                            For me it still varies, from gun to gun. However, it definitely isn't like the first few times. Man, back then I counldn't get the gun out of my mind, like an addict.

                            BTW, I just PPTed a gun today and yeah, I'm not feeling the jones as hard.
