to buy, or not to buy...
That darned FNAR is haunting me. I am doing the yo-yo on my decision making.
Previously I have griped about my constant acquisition mode. Even my gun safe is darned near full. But I've wanted a 308 semi-auto high capacity rifle for quite a while, and I really like this one, but man, parting with another $1,500 + that I could put to use elsewhere to good effect, it is just tough to lay off. To make matters worse, it is a Browning style firearm, and I have a particular weakness for Brownings.
He loves me, he loves me not, he loves me.....oh the anxiety of having to decide!

I say, just go for it. If I could, I would. He who dies with the most toys, wins.

Oh bother, now I have to give up a 22...
Blast you're not helping me, now I have two decisions to make. Which 22 do I give up? Maybe you should come to Denver (bring an airline grade gun case) and I'll just let you pick one. That'd take a load off my shoulders.

Repeat after me. . . you can never have too many guns you can never have too many guns you can never have too many guns and geez louise its a browning! You'll kick yourself if you don't buy it --- and if you change your mind and find some other better widget to buy you can always sell. Although selling a gun is really against my grain. Please post pictures of the new gun addition to the family!

Dangit! My neighbor just got back last night from a week in Denver. She could have picked it up. I think you would have liked that very, very much. -Blast

Ben, Just buy it. Think of how jealous the rest of us will be! I didn't need another M1A, but to support the American economy I felt it was my duty to buy one, it was delivered Election Day but ordered 2 weeks before. Stu
