Gratification: Instant, Delayed, Denied....

[arakboss]

Do you ever think about making a thread, then just.... You know... Don't? You could delay your gratification to the next time you have a weird thread idea... And then delay it again... And keep delaying. Imagine the gratification when you finally get that dopamine release in 100 weird ideas

If you could only see my thread backlog.

"Waiting" then buying something when you can actually afford it is most gratifying.

I can afford it now, I just don't have the money.

I'm working on delayed gratification, been jonesing for a Kimber K6s DCR, local Sportsman's has had them in stock. Going on six weeks of delayed gratification now…

How much more can one man take…

I'm refreshing my tracking number page every hour or so impatiently waiting for a gun I got off GunBroker. 2nd day air, my bubblegum. It's already the second day and only at the distribution center. Lame.

I'm waiting for my Glock trigger. Glock says it shipped last Friday. Fed ex says they got it Tuesday but that it hasn't left Ga yet. As of 5 mins ago.

Well that's crappy. Frustrating, even. Sounds like they don't know which way is up

My gun just now arrived in Portland all the way from Wisconsin. Crossing my fingers for a weekend landing at the FFL

I swear, if they had to refund the difference for every day they missed I am sure someone could figure out how to route things correctly. As it stands if they fail to get it to you by the expected time they just point to the shipping contract and say that the promised time was a "best effort" thing and they do not guarantee delivery at all. If it gets to you slower than regular ground delivery, well, sucks to be you.

it's way more fun to give than just BUY BUY BUY.

I enjoy giving money away to family members who deserve it.

I have been thinking about all of the firearm purchases that have been made in Oregon since the M114 fiasco begin.

It was kind of like an all you can eat buffet and now most people have had their fill.

K6S is different, never wait to purchase one.

Do tell…. Personal experience?

I have a K6s 3" DASA. Easily the smoothest DA factory trigger I've ever encountered on a wheelgun, and I've been through the gamut with all the brands. Hitting an 8" steel plate at 25 yards with all 6 shots is trivial.

It's slim, solid, well finished, good grip feel and shoots wonderfully.

Stop procrastinating!

What Dude said
Wonderful revolver. I too have the DASA in 3"

You can delay all kinds of enjoyment in your life but you never know how soon your last day will come (involuntarily).

Sure I do. If I want it to be today, it'll be today

We have zero control over when our ticket will be punched (provided it's not self inflicted).

Well I don't know about you, but I plan on living forever. So far so good.
