    I am a weak person.

    So. I am a weak person. November saw me pick out a S&W 4516-1, December saw me buy it. Most people would be done after getting an awesome pistol like that. But, no.

    December has also seen, so far, a Kahr CT9 (hated it, bought it to help somebody, sold it), a set of Wilson Combat sights for my 92A1 - red fiber front, .290 Wilson rear, a sight pusher, 2 G42 Gadgets, and then a buddy texted me while I was at a VA appointment.

    He was at the LGS, and a guy had just sold them a 3953.

    I drove over an hour back to town from the VA medical center. Did I go back to work? Did I go home and do chores? Did I go shopping for the new TV Mrs Duelist wants?

    No, I did not. I went straight to the LGS and field stripped the gun. It is clean and has no undue wear. I have been looking for this gun for over ten years. It came with three magazines, and a Bianchi holster and magazine carrier. $350 out the door. My card is melting.

    I am not buying a model 64 S&W from SOG today. I am not. I swear. But I was thinking about it, until this happened.

    As soon as I saw the picture my friend sent me, I knew I was going to buy it. He was thinking about it, but I was already done. He walked back into the store with trade stock to get that gun while I was filling out the 4473. We had a fight about who was going to be nicer about it. LOL.

    I'm weak, and I'm a jerk, too.

    Have fun with the antiques.

    Where'd you find the G42 Gadget??

    All I own are 43s and Gen5s. I'm feeling Gadget discrimination!

    That's it? Please. That sounds like a typical week for me AND I would have bought the 64.

    If you can afford it and it not strain you finances I see no harm no foul.

    I'm married, dude. And my safe is just about stuffed full.

    Well, I could maybe hang a couple more on the door ...

    LOL. I forgot about three holsters, a case of 147gr Lawman, and a case of Geco .45 ACP.

    The buy frenzies hurt the wallet but are so much fun. The $365 I spent on my new Beretta Cheetah was totally unnecessary - I'm never going to carry a full size .380 - but I have no regrets, I love it. Enjoy your stuff!
