RE: Why do I want a new rifle?

Or a single shot rifle, or a AR-15 poodle shooter, or a.... I guess I could go on and on. My wife asked me how many more rifles I thought I needed, and I told her2 and a new Encorebarrel, but by the time the conversation was over, I realized i forgot about al least 2 other rifles... LOL
