Dear all,

My girlfriend of five years just left me for another man....

I'm having to move out. Getting rid of stuff. I know some of you folks are gunnies, like munk, who I see on the highroad, on occassion. I picked this place to give away free stuff because it seems to fit the spirit of this place well. No, I don't want to sell it, just get rid of the stuff and move out.

-Keep tuning in for stuff that I'm just gonna give away, gunny as well as other stuff.

-Mods, tell me if I'm outta line

-I just wanna move on with my life.

Here's some of the stuff:

-Lee C press mounted on a wooden block with:
-.357/38 dies
-.45 colt dies
-etc, etc.: everything you need to reload these things except the powder and primers which I can't send via mail

-I pay for postage, all you gotta do is say yes to this. Understand, you're helping a broken man try to regain himself by streamlining a bit. More stuff to come. Won't mail this Saturday, but the next Saturday.

Love to all,
Brace
 
Uhm, Willy, I think I already played this one today! :D

N.



P.S. If you're really serious, I apologize for poisoning the well a bit here for you, and thank you for a generous offer! I'm already setup with Dillon, but if I had the bench space I would take you up on this as a good single stage press would be a valuable addition.
 
I'm serious...

-The only joke here is me, certainly, the only fool's that present is me.

-Help a man out, or not.
 
Very nice and decent of you, Brace. I have presses and the dies you mention, so I really can't say yes. But there are going to be people who will want them. Hang in there. It would be really great if someone new to reloading stepped forward now to take this offer!!!

I'm sorry about your girlfriend. IT's happened to me. Five years is a long time, though, and it has to hurt.

Ah ta' hell with it. If I'm a gullible idiot, at least I'm trying to be a nice one. If you're SERIOUSLY that wound up and depressed, don't go givin' sh!t away, hide it from yourself! Time heals, and when it does, it's nice to have the things you enjoy still around. Also, you don't have to validate yourself by giving nice stuff away, if you're a good guy, friends and family know it, irregardless of your giving them stuff.

If this is a serious thread, I sincerely hope things look up for you soon.

If it's an April Fools thread, kiss my redneck a$$ :D
 
I'd go for it cause I have an ancient Herters press, but I don't have either of the calibers of gun so I'll set out. Incredibly cool offer though. Who says the world is a bad place!
 
Run with scissors,

It's yours if you want it. I could give a hoot to how people see me now: really. It's a logistical thing, not a desperate grasping for comfort from folks. I don't want any of sh*t near me. All it reminds me of is F***ing around with toys, buying that crap instead of saving up for the ring and making her an honest woman.....
After 4 1/2 years she didn't want to wait any longer. How could I blame her.

If you're really serious about giving away this stuff I'll take it.
I have a 357 and no way to reload. this will defintly help.
If this is a joke...yep you got me....if not I'm truely sorry for your problems.
Time heals...sometimes slower than we'd like but it does heal.

edit: and welcome to the Cantina.
 
Well gentlemen, you guys decide who get's it. Thank you for the invitation. and for the last time, it is not a joke...I really, really wish to God it was.
 
shappa,

I need you send me your address, I'll try to pop it in the mail next Saturday. Expect a very big box, with lots of brass and case holders and all sorts of sundry stuff. It will make life much, much easier for me. Thank you.
 
E-mail on the way..

And a big thank you!


Whoops, you've got your email blocked....I'll try a private message.


and you've got p.m.'s blocked.

Please un-lock one so I can send my mailing addy. I really don't want to post it.
too many freaks in the world. :mad:

I thank you profoundly for the offer, that's incredibly gracious of you, but I'm gonna have to pass on it. Hopefully it'll go to someone else who could really use one.

Don't know your life, relationship, or any of the details thereof, But I do wish you well, and hope happier days come back around soon.
 
Just saw your last posts. Im sorry. I opened up the quick reply box and walked away for a while, then came back and typed my post. I dont mean to be a jacka$$, it just happens. Good luck.
 
Can't really help you out by taking stuff. Maybe a bit of advice, though, from experience in a very similar situation.

It hurts like living hell. If you have the strength, the best and bravest thing you can do is face the pain. Just sit there and let it wash over you. At some point, once you accept the pain and really feel it on a deep level, you can let go. You have to get to a point where you can forgive yourself. Not easy, but infinitely better than drowning it with any of the things people use to deaden pain but not let go of it.

Another recommendation from my Buddhist bookshelf -

The Places that Scare You : A Guide to Fearlessness in Difficult Times
by PEMA CHODRON


She's a Buddhist nun, and much of the content emerges from Buddhist philosophy, but I think her advice is independent of religious belief, and good for anyone in a hard place.

If you need anything else, send me an email.

Be well.
