I'm becoming feverish.

Missed out by half an hour on a mint lnib 1955 browning 380. Ever since contracting HIKV I'm down to one or two guns a year from being a member of the gun-of-the-month club. Now the GOTM symptoms are starting to recur.

Having GOTM and HIKV at the same time... I'm starting to go into the shakes
 
Rusty as a GOTM recovering addict I reccomend.

1. Many sessions of diasembling,cleaning and
polishing your blasters.
2. Many sessions of cleaning and polishing
your Khukris.

This might not help much but it will keep your hands busy.

Plus it will give all your toys that "worn smooth" patina and make them fit your hand better.

I have friend that used to own a Harley. He rplaced it with a BMW R90s in 1974. He was so used to having to do "prevetative" maintenece on the Harley that he was a nervous wreck. He started polishing and cleaning the Beemer. After a month he had the factory paintstripeing polished off.

Like any addict it is terrible to have the
"itch, but not the scratch".

Good Luck,

ts

P.S. My problem is I am impressed by no new guns. I'm looking for the classic (i.e.S&W Triple lock,Webly Fosberry) in shooting condition.

With the imminent election and the 50/50 chance of Al Gore as president, I was very much in the GOTM fold. It's certainly addictive (I've got my eye on a couple of other...necessities). But you have to admit, HIKV is certainly cheaper.

Hi, I'm Tom, and I'm an addict...

1995, the year after the ban, was the worst. I'd used up most of my discretionary funds for a couple years in advance.

A while back, I sold one of my 38s, and sometime later another. I don't care what anybody says: 9mms, 357s don't count, nor do 380's. When you have less than ten 38's something feels wrong.

Besides, I'm back down to less guns than my age.

Well,Klinton sure kicked the gun buying into high gear.There are a few discretionary ones that I`d like to have for the representive historical value.Being an LEO,and Mil.,I have a little advantage.I`m still scared.Not for myself,but for posterity.
We`ll see how US v.Emerson turns out.When the 5th CT. is through, it will go to The Court anyway.

I put something else on my law plate that`s going to take some time.I have my allies pretty much lined up.Our F&G Warden asked for my help.I`m not good at saying no!Dang me!
 
I was recently able to buy two Ruger single action revolvers (44 mag and 45 LC) from a private individual, thereby bypassing the federal registration. Ironically, I'm not particularly crazy about the big single actions, but because of what the future may hold for us if Gestapo Gore gets elected, I figured I had better "get while the gettin's good." As far as I'm concerned, any handgun is better than no handgun. As a cop, I have several duly registered "duty" weapons, but I like the idea of having a few things that the government doesn't have records on. It's a sad day when you have to admit that the biggest threat to the nation's freedom is not some foreign country, but your very own government. And this situation was allowed to happen primarily because of the apathy and ignorance of the American people, most of whom don't have a clue about what's really at stake regarding the gun control issue.
 
Sorry, Steven, but it's been over a few years now that people polled have already been putting the federal govt down as the greatest threat to our freedoms. This was a mainstream polling group, like Gallup or Roper.
