I say one of each, but if I was you I'd keep your cowboy guns. They make you happy.

Yes, indeed they do. :)

There's just something about iron and wood, ya know? Like I've said before, it would be a downright shame to let this Winchester go. I've been on the hunt for it since I was a kid. Hell, I used to pretend my Red Ryder was a Winchester. I would cock it and then twirl it just like Rooster Cogburn.

However...

I'm afraid as I get older and the criminals get younger, I'm starting to feel a little outgunned. When I had my AR before, it used to ride in the patrol car with me. Now my Mossberg 590 does. That's still some impressive weaponry, but only to an extent. With today's bad guys, you gotta even the odds. And nowadays, we are starting to see more and more thugs with bigger guns than us. :bah:

Well, then tools first, toys later, it sucks sometimes but that's the best rule of thumb.


Meh, just get an M1 Garand.

I think you and I have spoken about this a while back, and I think I gave you my feelings on the subject. If it is something that will actually bring your comfort and security level to the next level without regret later, it is something that your finances can handle, and you have done the research and this is the weapon that you want then buy it.

But if those factors are not in place, then it may not be the right dissension at this time which may take some more soul searching on your part. The other thing we talked about is that we are not getting any younger either, so sometimes these choices are ones that we need to consider while we still can.

Just my 2 cents

Sorry, long day at the show room, I have had one customer after another today. You should have called me, for you I would make it $765. But only for you! That is because you have the (C's ) to call me a Jack ass, you remember what you saw me do to the last guy that call me that, he did not walk away. But I am not violent any more, I am not violent any more , I am not violent any more, But heck yea only you could have that special deal.
