    I cant stop buying guns!

    I think I have a real problem here...I'm on my 9th firearm. This year I bought a PSA AR15...two weeks ago I bought a Kahr/ Auto Ordnance 1911 (ok I bought it for dad, but still in my name) and I just laid down a deposit on a beautiful stainless Colt XSE 5''.... I actually bought two guns in two weeks!

    The wife seems to be ok with it, but I need to stop or I'll NEVER buy a house!

    Help me!

    (or atleast make me feel better by sharing your collections!!!)

    i was going to pick up a Ruger 10/22 Takedown (or look for one), but my garbage disposal finally retired itself, and my kitchen faucet died. my weekend was a never ending series of projects/repairs around my home that i am buying. well... maybe the 10/22 next month.

    get your house... and celebrate with a new gun; there's your advise. it may be that you have a fear of what the house represents; permanency, long term commitment, settling in.

      Well Sparkyx
      We are on the down hill slide of the year so you have momentum working against you.

      I sadly have only found a deal on one this year (cobray m11)


      however if your going to live in it.....it is a good time to buy a house.

        take a few courses where you can get trained more thoroughly on the use of each firearm.

        burn through a ton of ammo doing so

          house>guns IMHO.

          I'm like you though, I can't stop gobbling up all these good marketplace deals.

              Well, I got the battle rifle ( AR), shotgun ( mossberg 500), scoped bolt action(Savage), beater pistol (XD) and a nice pistol (XSE), and the .22's. I've gotten my basic collection done now. The only thing on the radar is a lever gun, but that can wait. I guess after I pick up the XSE, I gotta start hitting the house fund hard.

                            You don't need a house, garage, or huge workbench to start reloading.

                              Same here! I've been "saving" for a down payment on a house for the past 4 years, because I can't stop buying guns. lol
