"I got to thinking today... just what is it that makes me love guns so much? When a friend mentioned that he knew a fellow who was considering selling or trading a rifle, I started to feel it - that deep-down gotta-have-it feeling. But why? I don't need another rifle. I don't have an excess of cash lying around, just waiting for a gun to buy. But something in me wants to own that gun."
