Went to a gun show.  The only gun in the place that caught my eye was a WWII Reproduction Colt 1911.  It was unfired in the box, and was very tight and finished better than anything I've seen from Colt recently, except for the Original 1911 Repos.  Anyway, the guy couldn't take credit cards, and the ATM had a limit per withdraw.  Plus, it was about 5 degrees outside.  Just enough hassle for me to leave without a new gun.  1st time a credit card has saved me money!  I wonder if I could find one online?  No, resist dammit!  Resist!

haha... yes, sometimes it is just too much hassle. i have walked away from a number of deals because it was too much hassle to go thru. there have been a few i've regretted, but most turned out to be good decisions.

you'll either find another one, or you will forget about it in a couple weeks, and find something better!

Hunting is not a matter of life or death; it is much more important than that.
