So I bought a fourth gun in two months…

I'd like to say ... "That's all?"

Because if I say "Been there, done that", and likely more ... but then the Mrs. reads this ... I'm dead !

Yeah, I've done similar!

Waiting… waiting. Still waiting.

Holy crap! You really are living the dream.

Is that bad?

One of them has been circumnavigating Gods creation courtesy of FeDEx and the other isn’t in the mail yet. I am not superstitious but is talking about purchases still in the mail bad luck? I know babies are like that in the first trimester.

That didn’t stop me tho.

I may feel a little edgy buying somethings but never buy things that don’t have some type of value to me; my wife buys that stuff that stuff ends up eventually in the garbage. I have stuff that I bought 40 years ago and so long as my wife or my kids didn’t get their hands on them it is all mostly mint. Certainly don’t need all the flintlocks I bought but they all bring me joy just looking at them!
Congratulations

Holy crap! You really are living the dream.

That pretty much sums up my feeling on the matter.

I am sure my ex’s would disagree. lol

Well if they appreciated chanterelles, grouse, bear, and deer season, salmon runs and fine fine FINE flintlock rifles they probably wouldn't be ex's.

That made me laugh!!


If only I could find one of those! Wouldn’t that be something? I’d even settle for a multiple choice scenario.

Only 4?! That's far too few!

Be happy boys. Both in marriage and guns. Been married 52 years and just bought 2 more. Guns I mean. Not once has she ever voiced an objection. And this is after her putting up with me being a VA Trooper 34 years. Just pick the right one (wife) the first time.

I started with two and have acquired 15 more in the last three and a half years. It's worse than a booze habit.

At least you don't get a hangover.

 

[Garbear34]

You already know there's no cure for this. Buy the the 5th one.

 

[Fisherking]

Actively looking.

More guns are cheaper than more wives. Trust me.

Sounds like you are on a roll keep up the good work, I'm sure you can find a good number of muzzleloaders that need a good home.

And you can sell a gun you don't want anymore, try that with your wife and you will be lucky to survive long enough for the trial.

I don't know....I've had both, and it sure is a lot harder to sell a used beer.

I am done with wives but I am up to six flintlocks since this original post. Of course I have delusions of a couple more someday.

It’s difficult being a West coast internet shopper. I’d love to go to a couple of the back East shows someday. We have shooting sticks. The East has art.

Regardless of the season at hand, you would only remember sunshine at the time.

It's way too late. Go for a no. Five.
