First off let me say that in the past three months I have been getting my foot and ankle reconstruction. So, my activities are heavily restricted. Matter of fact I am writing this from a hospital bed. With all this down time, l have been doing a lot of air gun research, target practice, gun cleaning etc. I have also had a lot of time to blow money. I have bought a Discovery, Fusion, a Hammerli 850 and a mint S&W 79g during this time period. I did shop hard and got good deals, the Disco and fusion were refurbished. So, I am at least trying to be somewhat responsible.
For two years I have struggled with dropping the outrageous coin that Umarex asks for a Walther lever action. Actually for the money they want, each gun should come with a scantily clad umbrella girl to shade the sun and load clips. Anyways, this is gun I really wanted and but thought it would be best to be bought used. Unfortunately, I always just missed getting one on the classifieds and used ones on the auction sites are way over priced. New ones have been out of stock for the better part of 2015. I finally broke down a few months ago when I stumbled onto a new one online and bought it. The next day, I got a call by the business telling me they actually didn't have it in stock. So, after all this buy/don't buy angst and hassle, I said no more, take it off the wish list and forget about it.
Then in November, I get an email saying they are back in stock. I thought "Ugh! here we go again." fortunately the $450 was enough to make me stick to my guns.
Then Airgun Depot has a Cyber week deal on the Lever action that comes with a free Colt peace maker+11% off+ free shipping. After four days of deliberation, tossing the deal in my virtual cart and cancelling it four times, I pulled the trigger and bought it. I'm weak. Why do I need so many airguns? I shoot them all regularly, so they don't go unused. I have now completed my collection, I am happy with all my guns and finally getting the Lever action into the collection can allow me to put an end to this purchasing non-sense. Thanks for allowing me to lye on the cyber psychiatry couch for awhile and share my airgun addition problems with you.
