Addicted

[The War Wagon]

I never knew that guns can be so addictive. I have one and can't wait to go to the shop tomorrow for another. Feel like a kid during Xmas time.

Wait'll you get that third AR - then it gets REAL bad.

Bought two in my first month and still itching for more. I know the next five guns I'd get with the right cash flow.. Too bad money doesn't grow on trees

at least with s&w, you can justify the purchase with those differences. with 1911s, we tend to have more than 2 of the same configuration, and almost all of the same caliber.

Some guys have racks & racks of 1911's. I kinda get it, but I would be putting my $$$ towards some sorta diversity. I already have a Parkerized RIA & have serious lust for a satin stainless Dan Wesson 1911 type. But 20 some 1911s? Might as well have more than two Glocks or XD's....

Now... I'm off to my LGS to have a look at a 4" S&W M66 no dash. Why? I don't have a stainless P&R K frame & it's a first half year production.

I definitely have the bug. But now I try and look at like my Father-n-Law. When we first met, he had a HUGE collection of rifles and shotguns(which I've benefited from in the form of a Rem 37 and Browning Gti). His collection has come down in recent years, from selling and trading to get firearms he really wants, mostly vintage and rare items. His philosophy has become one of quality over quantity. If at all possible, try before you buy, don't settle for something similar when you can save a little longer and get what you really want, and shoot and train every chance you get. Most of all, enjoy the ride.

I went from 1 to 6 in 4 months. And now I'm planning my 80% AR pistol. and maybe a Mossberg 500. A 1911 would be nice also

Just try to spend as much shooting as you do buying if you want to be any good with your guns. Took me a long time to understand that, and I still haven't realized it in practice.

Pretty much this.

I've gotten most the impulse buying out of my system. Not as many guns catch my eyes these days. For me, its going to the range and shooting thats addictive. Also love maintaining guns and even the prospects of minor gunsmithing.

Welcome to the club, and being broke. Buy a .22 so you can get your shooting fix at a reasonable price. $20 worth of ammo will last you all day.

Bought my first this year and 30 days later bought another. Now I'm looking into getting a shotgun!
