Talking I Think I Need an Analyst???

Well this has got to stop. I did it again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was at the local Gun Show this weekend and I came home with a TC New Englander in 12 ga. I must stop this buying and do more shooting. Man came by my table with a TC Hawkens in .50 cal. and my hand started to shake. It was in unfired shape and he only wanted $175 for it! How dare he try to lure me down a path I don't need to go. Does he want my wife to pack her bags and go home to mother???

Do you guys think I can be helped by an analyst? Am I too far gone to help?

Now on a serious note. Been shooting muzzle stuffers for a few years, but never had one in a shotgun caliber. I don't even know where to start. How do I load this beauty?

Now this is the kind of help I really need.

You poor sick man. I still go to gun shows, but wear a blindfold and just sniff the air.

The only thing that would help is sell that evil gun to another forum member cheap to help your spirit heal. I would be willing to help

Well things happen.. you just have to get over it. Because you are one that know, it will happen again too. So enjoy your shotgun. They make a great little grouse shotgun if your quick enough.

Although it IS treatable, the price is way too high. I don't believe it's terminal...... unless your wife gets wind of it.

Well with my first wife it was I want one too. With this one its just the oppsite, I guess what I miss most is some one thats always ready to go hunting and fishing.
We enjoy many things together but not hunting and fishing so now I go alone.

I would not spend good money on an anyalyst when you could use it to buy another gun.
