why so addicting ?
 

it seems that guns in general are so addicting. i have enough right now but i seem i always want to buy another one in about 3 months after i just bought one.
i have gotten to the point that i just don't buy a ton and then trade some in in acouple months after i get tired with it.
now i try to buy quality not quantity. and i aslo try to buy a gun that will fit many needs in hunting and weather conditions.
next is a ruger deerfield carbine.

anyone else have these problems like i do?

I have the same problem. I bought 223 then i wanted another gun so i got a 270 now i want a 7mm-08 then i will want a 7mm Mag. After that i will want many more guns. The cure is to buy one gun that'll do it all. If you reload it can happen.

Why work when you can hunt???? Heck why work at all!!

yep always need(a want .. another seems like.<img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle> Lotsa good reasons.
I dont know of one gun that would do it all tho , for me . have a contender i need more barrels for for sure.

I did price a ruger deerfird & a lever guide gun recently, but didnt buy iithr...yet.
So many choices- not enough safe space or $lol

Theres nothing like the feel of a finely tuned action in your hands, not to mention the ability to take game at long distances with incredible ease and accuracy. And the satisfaction of using a precision instrument to the limits of yours and its capabilities. Guns are just plain fun for a million reasons.

Beware of the person who only has 1 and knows it inside and out.....

Hurry up and wait.

Never a need always a want, its usually the engravings on european shotguns that gets my blood humming.

But I must say I would be very afraid of a person with only one gun!

It just doesn't seem right.

Tell me about it, it's always, &quot;but I don't have one yet.&quot; I have taken to buying the quality gun that has been neglected and through love and labor restoring it to pristine condition. To me it is just more satisfying to hunt with a gun that my hands brought back to life.

I have been addicted to guns since I was about six years old .It only gets worse as you get older .LOL
