...started "Full Time" @ the "High Priced LGS", "Full Time Employees" get a very substantial discount on new firearms/ accessories. Now if I can just figger out a way to live on $6.00 a week, I'm "Golden"...
 
...it ain't quite like, "I was looking for a job when I found this one", it's more like, "I'm lookin' fer a 2nd job, so I can afford the one I got"... :roll: :mrgreen:

Man, do I ever identify with that!
 
I actually would enjoy working in a shop so that maybe I could reduce the rate I pay on my "toys". I guess tripling the number of toys bought while getting a maybe 15% reduction in cost doesn't much work, mathematically speaking.

Maybe not in your head, but it makes perfect math to me! :lol:
 
And to me. Those pesky wives, however, use weapons like arithmetic against our perfectly sound logic, though.

At least not until they learn to live off of gunpowder and Model 70's.. I try to eat more hot dogs and baloney, but these danged kids these days complain too much..

Yeah, I am with ya Tom! Wives sure do know their math... :lol:
 
The good news, Scotty, is that I've achieved the tactical objective Pat McManus recommends. Getting to the point where the wife doesn't know your guns well enough anymore to know how many there are, and just calls them "all those guns". Then you can add at will with little notice. In theory...

I think Lori has photo'ed mine. She knows what I have now....

I feel like a young Marine again, when the 1stSgt is doing an armory count... Just can't win. Just goes to show, the older you get, no matter where you are, there is always some one more senior than you!

Thats when you start trading! Like get rid of the Remlin for a Winchester! A 243 for a Swede.

Yeah, the only issue I have with that is the 243 was my son's first rifle and he whacked his first couple deer with it. It's one of two Remington's left in the safe, but as Mike said, it shoots really well to keep it's place in my safe, if it didn't it would be GONE.

I did get rid of a Ruger 308 that was Lori's first and upgraded her to a Model 70 25-06 that is very nice.. I am just outta "other" guns to trade or sell...

...you don't really think Sun Tzu just woke up one morning & decided to write a treatise on "War", do you??? I'm guessing his wife was having a "Bad Day", & "War" was a metaphor, just so he didn't get caught complaining... :shock: :roll: :cry: :twisted: :mrgreen:
