Bought a MAK 90 today, I have no idea why. I don't even like AK's but the price was a steal. ($230)
After talking to the clerk we totalled up all the guns I've bought from that ONE SHOP since Jan.
15. Mostly pistols. :eek: I think I need a gunpowder 12-step program.
Heer's the caliber breakdown.
.45acp 3
.40 2
.357 3
.22 4 (includes 22 mag)
.223 2
7.62 1
I just BARELY passed on a 20 gauge Winchester. :o

Not weathly in the least. Gun trade-ins from various depts to GT Distributors.
Bought the .22 rifles for $30 each. Two of the 45's were $250 each. I have no self control at all.:D

I just inventoried my arsenal for insurance purposes and realized I paid more for my guns than i did for my truck and down payment for my new house combined.

Jeez, I'm glad I've got self-control...:rolleyes:
I've got quite a few, but I didn't get 'em all this year.
Only the Taurus .44 Mag was this year's purchase.

When you can afford to "impulse buy" a gun... you are in pretty good shape. :D
I spend 5 minutes at the grocery checkout debating on taking the plunge and trying the new flavor of juicyfruit out. :(

There is a 12 step program-but it's for wheelgunners. Shoot six, reload, shoot six, repeat. :D

With over $1500 in Tax stamps, a C&R and never been asked any questions, I say you are safe.
