That's what I believe... I need a Les Baer... to the core of my being... down to the old synapses... need as in Maslow... like breathing even... I believe, help my unbelief...

I am in a quandry... more guns or more ammo... the perpetual question... how to balance ammo and guns... reloading helps with the harmony but since it is so cheap, I load more, which equals more ammo which must be balanced with the need for more guns... balance, harmony, gun-smoke...

I must go now and contemplate the wonder of my smith 25-5... my reloading press is all set up for 45 colt.....

First - you have a 25-5? Good show old man!

Second - a philosophical question... If you could have one Les Baer or 2 Kimbers AND the balance of cost in bullets, primers, powder... Hmmmmmmm

You have a High Standard Crusader?.... I am very impressed.... When I worked at at Gun Store in the OC in College, we sold a few but they were beyond my pay grade... always wanted one... very cool.....

It is as cool as my custom 25-5, 6in barrel, custom action, crane lock etc.... the guy I traded it from thought he took me to the cleaners... I thought I stole the gun from him... we were both happy...

Now if I could find a 4 in gun....?

I just finished reading the prayer of Jabez... in that prayer, he asks God to expand his territory... now... if that means, in my case, my ability to work.. and I work as a firearms instructor, at least part time, would it not then be reasonable to ask God for a 38super and 45 acp Les Baer along with the ammo?.. why expect too little of God... After all, he granted Jabez's prayer....

I will now work on being a simple humble supplicant....

I love it. I, too, have read the book... HOWEVER, I was never smart enough to apply it like you! I love it. Thanks for the chuckle today - i needed it.

Gibbygoo. Thanks for checking with them. As I mentioned above, that's was I suspected. I fear that is going to become much more common. And that is exactly what the gun grabbers want.
