Not to fret, Mark, a little more digging reveals that they're not that rare out there, and there are other specimens available for around the same pricing.
Sure is pretty, and I'm not a big fan of all-nickel-plated sidearms. Would really like to hold one with that grip to see how it feels. Just afraid it would be too small for my big mitts.
2 packs/day X $6/pack X 30 days = more than halfway there. Hell, I'd spot you the difference on an easy payment plan!
How very, very kind Evan!
Yes, I guess to actually handle one with those grips makes a lot of sense.Guess I should try to find one out there and do just that! Ya just don't usually see these types of hand guns at the run of the mill gun stores. Will keep looking though.
The LGS up by the cabin is VERY well stocked...if I can get up there soon.
Thank you my friend!!

Mark needs one of those to go with his shirt and cup. I just got my shirt orange of course. Its not a bad shirt light weight and I ordered a size up to be sure. Fits good. A pic with gun shirt and mug from Marks house would be really cool.

As much as I would love that gun, it's unfortunately gonna have to wait a bit. When I get the mug and shirt though, I might just have to use my BBS for a photo shoot.

pink and orange towels too of course!
Have realized another smokeless advantage. I can now wear shirts with pics. Don't need that d#*n chest pocket anymore! Yaaay

Mark, wife and I just got back from vacation, so, I wanted to see your updates. CONGRATS my friend!! Doin' good!
Support is always a blessing. You are deserving. Just to stray for a moment; what are these t-shirts I've seen mentioned?
Ok Mark, KEEP AT IT! Been shooting lately? Been blazing in our deserts now, so, waiting on cooler temps. Take care.

Welcome home Tom!
Hope ya'll had a great vacation!
Al had posted a pic of a coffee mug he got, really cool. Says " I'm Your Huckleberry " with mustache and all. Told him I have to have one of those. He got the T-shirt also.

Needless to say, mine are on order from Amazon.

.
BTW, thank you for the congrats and your support as well! I AM keeping at it...much to my surprise.

Mark, you might have to change your avatar pic... Doc is holding a tar-bar in his hand, which is sending a poor message. Being a “lunger” and all, he should know better! Congrats on your success!

Have been smoke free for 6 years now. Did it by will power, no medication or aids. Simply really wanted to quit. Have no desires for a puff. However, when I smell a Winston/Camel or just about any U.S. cigarette, my mouth waters. Will not touch them though.

You're coming up on 2 months, Mark! Awesome news and a great accomplishment! Personal victories like this don't often come this late in life, so celebrate yourself and enjoy every moment of your smoke-free self!
