    Got some nice guns there... I've shot many guns (semi-auto, full-auto whatever...) but there is something really cool about a solid bolt action rifle.

    No cure, you can only treat the symptoms , You have a nice collection there, but I see your still in the early stages, eventually it will progress into semi-auto rifles, then shotguns ( semi, pump, then hold on it gets worse- side by side and over and unders -ow!) Of course you'll have your bouts with pistols - yea it will come around- you won't know it at the time but it feels like someone poking you in the shoulder, you don't realize it untill one or two years later ! Some folks will go into denial about it, but you should know- it's not your fault. It happens to alot of people. That you know you have it, is a good sign. You can manage it better. (you can talk to friends, like The High Child- He's got it bad, I seen it develope into full blown rage-he ain't married which helps-to some extent. Weekly visits to a shooting range helps out alot. But beware of the gun shop/show urges and go in moderation. As a rifle shooter, I know you have alot of self discipline, you can do it. I hope these words of encourgement help you out over some of the rough periods, but together we can all get though this. Sites like this one also really helps, where you can talk it over with a friend. I hope this helps and maybe I'll see you on the range. Rol.

    No, no cure.

    But I would be glad to get that non-bolt action Ruger out of the picture for you.

    Don't make me start pulling out the pistols for a photo shoot...

    My purpose in life today is to drink outlandish amounts of beer and eat ham, cabbage and potatoes all day.
