I feel your pain...I can never figure out which of 88 1911's I should carry. What model? What barrel length? Commander? Officer? Parkerized?

So I give up and spill 40+ Glock 17s out of a tote.....Should I carry Gen1's, 3's or 4's


Then I grab a friggin pistol, find two spare mags for it, holster up and go about my day. I never shoulda quit drinkin'.


Hehehehe

Yes, we should have only three pistols. A primary, a BUG, and a matching primary in case one needs repairs. But that wouldn't be any fun.

Well, contemplating whether to go to ER or just pill up and stay in bed. Note to self, don't shoot till after surgery.

It seemed like a good idea at the time. Maybe I will learn some day. First range trip in almost a year and just not too smart.

TRUST ME!!! The ER is NOT something to contemplate. Take it from someone who just spent four days in the hospital! ROFL.

Glad you escaped the ER alive and congrats, I agree it's not a place to be.

Partner, I am really hopeful it can be fixed. I'm worn out. I have a 52 Hatteras, a 34 Hatteras and a big center console fishing boat and I haven't even seen them in months.

The surgeon in California I'm seeing next month is a big hitter with a great rep.

It's just the irony of life, you're livin the dream and the light at the end of the tunnel is a train headed your way. We all get our turn. I'm not letting this whip me.
