I've Fallen And Can't Get up..........
« on: February 23, 2010, 11:31:55 AM »
I stumbled upon this website a short time ago after obsessing after a 45-70 BC. In a rather short time I own not only the 45-70 BC, but a 45LC BC and a 30-30 Handi. To make matters worse I'm looking hard for a 25-06......... Is there an ointment that will cure this???  ;D

The only "ointment" is another Handi or three, but that just eases the symptoms, it won't cure ya!!  ;D

There are so many aspects to the addiction. Looking through junk stores and pawn shops, having the serial number series in your billfold, looking at the local trade or sell papers, lots of fun things to do other than shoot, hunt, tune, dress up and read about what others are doing.

Now I'm hunting a 30/30 and dies, and molds and ---

good luck, eddie

This is a long term disease so don't expect a fast and easy cure. Best to just apply one Handi per week until the condition is alleviated. If conditions persist it may require you to double the dose and repeat as needed.
Do you have a .223 yet?

One of our technically minded members here (trotterlg are you there?) should invent an emergency gadget thingy like they advertise on tv for when an old folk (not any of us) falls down and needs to call for help.

When somebody gets a dose of the falling down handis, they just hit the beeper and the one of us nearest to them rushes to their aid... 'cause ain't no actual cure. Best results come from group support and temporary treatments (i.e trades and acquisitions).

Blacksan,

I think Handiholism is now a true epidemic, unlike H1N1.  On the first day of this year I had only a partner 410 lost in my gun safe so basically 0 handis.  I now  have 5 complete guns and 5 extra barrels.  The addiction is very rapid.  You will need the full support of your family to fight this disease.  They can best help by advancing you the funds to buy the previously reccommended medicine - MORE HANDIS!!!!

good luck
