Do I have a problem?

[Edog537]

Well, there's nothing wrong with having a hobby of buying rifles and trying to optimize them for accuracy and performance, and then selling trading them. (As long as you don't think you need to have such a rifle to kill deer in Georgia.)

As long as "the process" is where you get your satisfaction, and when you sell or trade the gun it's not out of disappointment but the completion of a job well done.

It’s all about the process.

It's not a problem unless the baby doesn't have diapers and milk

I am the opposite when it comes to my hunting rifles I have 2 one over 20 years the other around 5 ,I’m a firm believer having confidence in your gun makes the hunt more pleasurable.

As said before. They are TOOLS.
And only TOOLS. To do a Job.
And some of us like to Collect TOOLS.
Some we KEEP. Some we TRADE!
Yes, It could be a Problem for some people.

If I carry a rifle in the woods, it feels good in hand, and I take a deer with it, chances are it's in the safe to stay. Only sold one rifle I took a deer with, and that was due to reducing the assortment of calibers on hand.

When I get a hankering for a new rifle, I remind myself how infrequently I shoot a bunch of rifles already owned and really like. Don't like to make that problem worse.

Looking back over the last 7 years I have cycled through 13 “deer rifles” - I need a 12 step program.
