New Kit

[mowolf]

OK, hear is the deal. SWMbeO has agreed that I can get me a kit for a new rifle, the catch is I have to take her and go with her to a taping of an Oprah show. Does this sound like a good deal? :hmm:

You gotta decide if giving up an hour or so of your time is worth a nice rifle kit?
A few hours of my time sure isn't worth the price of a kit. I should get such a good offer.

 

[loojack]

Sure! Oprah has been known to give away cars and such...I guess the end justifies the means. Just let us know if you enjoyed it!.....loojack

I wouldn't put myself through the taping of an Oprah show for anything let alone one rifle kit. My $.02 Uncrichie...

 

[OTHERN]

H... yes!!! :m2c:

What kit? :hmm: I'm thinking swamped barrel & Chambers lock or better to open.

Years ago, I managed to be stoopid enough to develop gangrene on most of the bottom of my left foot, and septicemia throughout. I had to sit through a process called "debridement", where they would scrape the dead meat off my foot muscles (the skin was gone by then) and immerse my raw foot in a saline irrigation bath between flensings. Took two weeks of that.

Sitting through a taping of Oaf-ra couldn't be too much worse. Cowboy up fellah, go to your happy place and take one for the team. :redthumb: Wear a hunting sweatshirt or buffalo-plaid. :redthumb:

:m2c: Do the breakout. Known monetary costs first... Travel to Chicago, maybe an overnight stay? meals? souveniers? Compare to cost of rifle kit? Then the intangables- time away from home, day off work, sitting thru an Oprah show!!!???? Compare these to kit intangables like time spent in shop, new tools to get and use, and having a fine firearm when finished.

Not too sure, but I think I know who's left holding the dirty end of the ramrod here :crackup: :crackup: :crackup:

Then again, Oprah has been known to give away some nice stuff.

Now if you can convince SWMBO to get tix for a Springer taping the next day... :crackup:

Take three sleeping pills when you get out of the car. You didn't say that you had to be awake to be tortured.

I would hold out a while and hope for better offer.

What you really have to ask yourself is.... W.W.D.P.D.. What would Dr. Phil do. ::

All kidding aside, just do it. It'll make your wife happy and you'll get a new gun. The wife used a similar logic when she wanted to start a family.

[BambiSlayer]

If she'll get me a new kit gun. {I'll go with her to see Opra} :crackup: :crackup: :crackup: :crackup: in case you guys havent noticed Opra has been looking pretty good lately. :shocking: :winking: :imo: And she's been giving away all that stuff too. :thumbsup:

 

[Slowpoke]

[newt]

[shaggyshooter]

Let's look at this another way. If you don't go, when will you ever get any good toys?

When will you get to go out and enjoy the toys that you have now?

When will you get to... Uhhh errr never mind...

Oprah is a limited torture, but domestic tranquility has some serious benefits and must be strongly considered.

Besides there is always rum to lean upon afterwards.

Get a commitment for a really good gun and ORDER it before you go.

Discretion is the better part of valor.

Now if your really thinking, get a Chambers York kit ORDERED then she can't back out of the deal.
Deal ya say? Yep. could always be worse.. You could have been asked to go see Micheal Morre!

PS: tell us how ya like the Yorkie :redthumb:

 

[Deerstalker]

I have to agree... get the bestus, most expensive kit that was on my want list, then take the sleeping pills. Could be at least as bad by having to sit thru Springer( that's not even funny)! Just don't let SWMBO get a trend started here, or else your rewards for such cruel and unusual punishment will get smaller and smaller!
