Your in the wrong forum if your seeking a cure.
I've seen it many times.Your friend definitely has Igottogetanothergunitis, a.k.a.Gun Fever. No one is certain what the cause is. Symptoms are hard to detect at first. Maybe spending a little more time in sporting goods, surfing the web just a little more at Cabelas and Midway. It seems trivial at first, a gun here and there, but quickly reaching the point of no return. Soon, Gun Fever will cause normally sane people to not only buy guns, but be thinking of their next gun purchase before they even get the new gun home. Before you know it, safe space will become more and more limited, finally resulting in a safe implant. This will only provide temporary relief however, as additional safe implants will be needed in the future to relief the swelling.
