Geeze... I'm such a light weight! All I have is my 1898 rifle and my 1898 sporter... I gotta get busy and catch up to the rest of you all.

Yep you have me surpised. However I think your total firearm count would be fairly high. Maybe? Don't answer but if the number iis 70+ you may have me beat. Geez, I was spending money like a drunk sailor on liberty. Have not bought any mil-spec antiques in two years but, man, I sure want to do so ever other day. Wish I was Bill Gates rich.
Being over in Iraq and Afghanistan for eight years was good but it will be a pain when it is over and I have to sober up and live on forty hours a week.

You'd need a time machine!!! I am NOT well-to-do, financially, by ANY measure of the word. Just been at it a LONG time, studied voraciously, and stayed VERY focused. There are a lot of skipped lunches (particularly at gun shows) and vacations not taken, hiding in my lock-ups! Not complaining in the least, just being clear.Comment

I can agree with you, Dick. I'm comfortable, being retired, but if I want something nice, I usually have to sacrifice something else I have."We make men without chests and expect from them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst."

At some point last year I had seven Krags. I am happily down to 4 right now, an 1892/96 one very nice 1898 and an 1898 carbine in 1899 clothing."A man with a tractor and a chain saw has no excuses, nor does he need any"
