    Exclamation Another what if...

    What if you are at your local gun or pawn shop and you see a (insert caliber here) (insert alphabet initials here).
    Do you...
    1. ask to see it, hold it get a feel for it
    2. shun the emotion and turn away weepy eyed
    c. reach for and draw your wallet
    4. ask for a line of credit
    e. put it on lay-a-way
    6. walk out and look up at the sky hoping the rain will wash away your tears

    Very often, even if I'm not intending to buy it. The last firearm I held knowing I couldn't buy it was a full-auto PPSH
    2. shun the emotion and turn away weepy eyed
    If I can't justify it in my own mind.
    c. reach for and draw your wallet
    If I really want it and have the money, knowing I'll not likely soon find another at a similar of better price.
    4. ask for a line of credit
    No.
    e. put it on lay-a-way
    On occasion. I did this two weeks ago telling him I'd pick it up within 60 days. I picked it up in 5 days.
    6. walk out and look up at the sky hoping the rain will wash away your tears
    I live in Southern Nevada -- that ain't gonna happen.

    Sometimes well, sometimes not so well.

    Usually #1 followed by wondering if the Mrs is home. If I can sneak it into the safe I am golden

    At one time in my life it might have been c. These days more likely it would be 6. When I was a little younger I had a bit more money to work with. Now days Big Brother has redistributed to much of my hard earned money.

    Always 'c' if I want it and it's a good deal.
