I just got my 03 FFL and I have always had this fascination with the small .25 and .22 pocket pistols - there are so many c&r eligible that I am afraid I will buy too many - does anyone else have this addiction or is it just me..

I like them a lot. I'm also a big fan of the tiny antique suicide specials in .22 Short.

Just repeat the C$R denial mantra - "It is not an addiction. It is not an addition..."

That's why I gave up my C&R. I want one of everything.

Your defeatist attitude disturbs me.

I could get addicted to .32 autos if I let myself, but I remain strong.

(Besides I just bought four Garands.)

Outside the Gates

There's nothing cooler than a 100 year old Colt, FN or Browning Vest Pocket that still shoots like new ... the Basque copies & variants are cool too
