I think I snapped and went wheel gun crazy!

[mcoe74]

After seeing the pictures, I think I'm in the correct support group. Then I read this:

Wait until you get a single action. Your addiction may skyrocket after that.

I may need some meetings too...

 

[Cpt. Obvious]

OP, I know the feeling, waiting on a 617-1 to make it's way to me, 6th Smith in a year and a half, I've bought and then sold a couple others, so 8th or 9th overall.

Yeah, they are awesome, and I don't mind the addiction at all, my wife on the other hand...

 

[mbliss57]

I was doing inventory last night on my wheel guns.. it took me and my wife over an hour....(the fact that I need to do inventory tells the story) You my dear man have no problems.. just opportunity... I don't have any problem with my accumalation either...just an investment

 

[PFNELKAK]

I'm totally impressed with all of your collections. It's hard
to believe there are so many quality guns out there.
No wonder why I can' t find any. I'm just getting
started, with a 19-3 T.R. in Dec. I have such a
fever. Hope no. 2 this week-end. Learning
every day on what to look for.

 

[FloridaFlier]

You'll know you're in deep when you answer a question from your wife about how many guns you own with "How many what? J-frames, barrel lengths, calibers?" "I can't give you an accurate answer until you give me a more precise question."
Hint: Then quickly change the conversation to anything about the Bachlorette, American Idol, or Dancing with the Stars. You'll be fine.

 

[GerSan69]

Wilson, do what I do - every new one's "been there all along." I'm up to 19 revolvers and 5 semi's so far... 8)

I don't play a paramedic on TV, but I have rolled as an EMT a time or two. So here's the cure 100 out of 100 E.R. docs agree upon: take 158 grains of Pb 50 times a day and administer via a 2" to 8" .357 inch bore "needle" to the appropriate target until the web of your shooting hand just begins to tingle, going numb is an overdose condition. In the event of overdose, recommend you taper the dose by administering 32 grains of.22 Stinger Pb, via a nominal .224 bore "needle," continue until the target dose is acheived, most likely at 25 yards. Excellent results have been acheived using a 4" "needle" administered by a Model 18 rotating cylinder device.

Should you suffer side effects of any of the above doses (usually characterized by pain accompanied by numbness to the web of the shooting hand), clean your revolver immediately and return to the safe. Begin an immediate regimen of Hogue, Uncle Mike's or Pachmayr rubber prophylactic devices and sheath your grip frame until either symptoms subside or continued use shows no relapse of side effects.

Addiction is a very real possibility when taking your Pb dose and can occur with the use of any "syringe" the JKLN or X, the Python, Diamondback and the single action. So, there is no cure. Prognosis is excellent as the condition is uncurable and will eventually result in a lifetime spent applying Hoppe's No. 9, Break Free and RIG ointments, PRN.

I trust this advice will be of assistance, may your condition be chronic and your safe contain many rotating cylinder instruments to ease your pain.

What, You think your're gonna get any help here???

I think the term used for folks on this forum is "Enablers."

 

[Dregg]

No, you don't have a problem.
I'm a fan of the "wheel gun" myself. So much that I have plenty and are always looking to add more to the collection.

 

[rwilson420]

Add 2 more to the list...

I sold the .38 spl 442 and replaced with a SP101 3"

Then I saw a Colin Noir video about .45acp, and then got this one

thats a total of 9, and its only Mid June.....

 

[kevin in nh]

I feel your pain! Love guns....esp wheel guns
Some of my Smiths....

Pair of Pythons.......

And this pre-29.....the apple of my eye.....

How could anyone not like wheel guns!

 

[DCWilson]

Can't have too many revolvers!

Now go get some more.

 

[jdbandit66]

looks normal to me.....
awesome collections gentlemen.

 

[hardcase60]

You think you got a problem. Not.. Earlier this year I traded ,even up, a 4", DA/SA, Model 64 for a Model 59 to a friend. After months of remorse over no longer having the M64, I'm now trying to figure out a way to talk the friend into selling me the M64.

"Hi, my name is hardcase60 and I am a Smithaholic".

 

[Mike McLellan]

So. You were expecting a moment of silence, or something, from this band of nut-cases

 

[sac-gunslinger]

It only becomes a problem when you are about to be living in a cardboard box.

The only problem with a cardboard box is that it is hard to attach your safe to the walls. Well, actually "attaching" is the easy part, protecting it against removal is the hard part. Cardboard boxes can make for a quite comfortable abode.

Don't ask me how I know.

 

[ditrina]

Nah... you ain't got a problem.. YET!!

 

[mbliss57]

Here are some I bought last month...
