UPDATE:

GMC’s 22-250 put us at 1,000!!!

149 Handi-Holics.

1,008 Complete Guns.

198 Extra Barrels.

2 Extra Frames.

New Handi-Holic-ism Level Chart: (based on the current totals)

Intern Handi-Holic 1
Average Handi-Holic 7
Journeyman Handi-Holic 13
Senior Handi-Holic 19
Master Handi-Holic 25

Terminal NUTS Handi-Holic 36

bajabill: Thanks.

TopperT: Thanks, a 38-55 Fan like me.

Bajabill: I think some people buy a complete rifle even though it does not have the barrel they wanted, and then they make use of the barrel program to get what they want and sell the barrel that came with the frame. Those actions are not reflected in our numbers here. After re-reading what I just wrote, it does not sound like it would account for enough to matter in the grand totals.

tdd4570: Thanks.

streak: How do you forget a 10 Gauge?

twhrider2: Thanks.

GMC: Your 22-250 is our 1,000th gun!!!

Kbis: Thanks.

Foggy: Thanks, have not heard from you for awhile, is everything alright with you?

fungunner: Thanks, you are right, WE all need MORE.

Now you just HAD to come up with a chart like that didn't you...

According to it I am below average!

I ain't never been "below average" in anything in my whole life! Some things a man just can't stand for!

Fortunately this aboration can be easily remedied. I shall immediately begin my quest to become a Master Handi-holic so that I can once again be modest in my greatness and still pitiously talk about the shortcomings of those who suffer from a terminal case of the affliction.

Hey ya'll, he's from Ga. Thats just how we are down here. I was personally ok with fella's having more Handi's from me until you scored it. Now suddenly I'm a loser.......(Atlaw, can you make me a loan to buy some more Handi's?) And not tell my wife? And can I keep them at your house?.....Awww, never mind.

Badnews Bob · « **Reply #248 on:** September 24, 2009, 07:37:46 PM »

I have another .22 hornet on it's way its a plus 1, and maybe if the deal comes thru another .30-30 not for sure yet thou. That makes me 15 complete rifles and 1 H&R pistol, I have a ways to go to get my masters card. I don't think I need 39 to be terminally nuts thou. I think I was born that way,LOL

BTW My cousin James L Warhorse ( yep that's his real name) who don't do computers, Has three handies, A .357 max a .243, and a .45-70. He's family do those count?

ronp · « **Reply #249 on:** September 25, 2009, 01:06:04 AM »

Add one more. I just bought a 357 mag SB1.

UPDATE:

151 Handi-Holics.

1,031 Complete Guns.

196 Extra Barrels.

2 Extra Frames.

Updated Handi-holic-ism Level Chart:

Intern Handi-holic 2
Average Handi-holic 7
Journeyman Handi-holic 13
Senior Handi-holic 19
Master Handi-holic 25

Terminal NUTS Handi-holic! 36

AtlLaw: When a man has even one Handi, he is an “Above Average” man. Chart is just measuring the level of Handi-holic-ism that great men have. Must be careful of that “Thin-Line” between being a “Master” and “Terminal NUTS” Handi-holic, well maybe not that thin of a line (11 Handi’s).

LONGTOM: There are no words to describe your “Greatness”. We all should follow your example!

Badnews Bob: I know the feeling, hoping this weekend “Candy Store Tour” will give me a new fix.

jeepmann1: Wish I was, maybe I could get some free samples to pass out.

Shawnee Gene: Another man to be envied and admired.

mechanic: Georgia Handi-holics need more than most, because the pallet stocked Handi’s make great paddles for the flood boats. You have given me a good idea; you Georgia Handi-holics can “Store” your guns at my house!

Badnews Bob: You were not born nuts; you obviously were born “Special” with the “Handi-holic” gene. Of course your cousins count because he IS family, we all is.

ronp: Thanks, good man.

me: Badnews Bob’s idea is a good one. We need Handi-Holic “Membership Cards”, going to give this some thought. I could make them and mail them out to………. I need a good design, any ideas?

AtlLaw · « **Reply #251 on:** September 25, 2009, 06:07:07 AM »

Oops!

Add one more! I have a friends .308 Ultra sitting in my safe waiting for me to shim the action!

Believe me, I've shot it a lot more then he has...

kinslayer1965 · « **Reply #252 on:** September 26, 2009, 09:23:10 AM »

1 - Complete .243
1 - Complete .45LC

1 - .280 Barrel
1 - 20guage barrel

6 - lottery numbers away from creating a new level called "handis out the wazzo holic"

Walley · « **Reply #253 on:** September 26, 2009, 02:20:57 PM »

Not enough. I only have nine shotguns. No rifles. Have my eye on a Tracker smooth bore slug gun that will be in an auction this week

yukondog · « **Reply #254 on:** September 26, 2009, 02:34:19 PM »

Sad to say only 1 complete, and 3 barrels and a 45-70 on the way.

Well, call me an intern. I already had a 223 Bull Barrel Handi (that the wife has now claimed as hers). I just ordered a 30-06/20 Guage combo. I'm hoping the 20 Guage barrel is rifled (since it has a scope mount). So, that will be 2 frames and 3 barrels.

Hi GrandpaMike, well I have to add one more to the count. I went up to my camp in Maine (with GB member Moose) and while there added another to the line-up, a 20 gauge shotgun....<><....

LONGTOM · « **Reply #261 on:** October 06, 2009, 12:20:55 PM »

re-edit mine.
Add two more complete Handis
Take off the two frames
Take off one barrel

I've changed so many around and added this barrel and used that frame I don't even know how many I have now.

LONGTOM

petemi · « **Reply #262 on:** October 07, 2009, 02:35:10 AM »

I've got a sportster .22 mag on the way. Should be here by Friday.

Add two more this week to my total-- A 28ga Pardner and a Sidekick 50 ml. I swear they're like rabbits, don't turn your back! Fred

That is a sure sign of madness!

Pete,

So you got the sportster. I've been eyeballing a couple real close myself, but been depleting the funds too quickly here.

Blackhawker · « **Reply #265 on:** October 07, 2009, 04:53:01 AM »

Only two complete and two extra barrels. ....but working on expanding both in barrels and complete set-ups. I really like these things!

Currently, all of mine are "classics" with antique finish and the accompanying stocks.

spikehorn · « **Reply #266 on:** October 07, 2009, 05:32:47 AM »

Add an SB2 frame for me. Soon to become a 280.

MSP Ret: One more huh… you are one sick puppy. Did Moose get sick too?

Bayou Stalker: Thanks.

zackyholdem: Thanks.

LONGTOM: Nice to fondle them, isn’t it.

Petemi: The healthy family must grow!

fredster22: I know what you mean, counted the racks last weekend, and I swear some must have changed places. There was one 45-70 BC that was awfully close to a cute little 45 Colt BC, maybe I’ll get a little 17 HMR BC from them.

JerryKo: Lack of funds is one of the only known inhibiters of Handi-holic-ism.

Blackhawker: What’s not to like?

spikehorn: 280 is Nice.

tmccray45: Thanks for playing, one of the best games there is.

Me: Looks like the Handi-holic-ism Level Chart has stabilized.

JerryKo · « **Reply #269 on:** October 07, 2009, 09:23:56 AM »

Gradpamike...it dosent inhibit the sickness...it leads to the selling of "bolts" for cash for more handis...I think it fuels it more.

It seems the best deals or that hard to find Handi always shows up when the funds are low or depleted. It really is a vicious cycle...and so it goes on...
