I'm a man of welath and taste.
Well that's not entirely true.  I do have the good taste to own several Enfields and that's one of many reasons I have no wealth.
So anyway hello. My name is George and I have an Enfield problem.

Welcome board George..
 
I myself also have more than one Enfield,  I see it not as a problem but just a beginning of a rewarding hobby..

it's really hard to say...   I wouldn't mind have a few more Enfields, but I'll
keep my one wife. On the other hand; Tiger Woods....

let's just say he might have been better off with more Enfields!!

So that's what they meant by "rolling" stone? Rolling Bullets has a ring to it, don't ya' think? JB

Ditched the wife and the GF would rather have me in the shop where she can keep an eye on me.
As for Tiger. I guess in his position there were too many offers he couldn't refuse.  Hapens to me with Enfields.

  Welcome aboard.  If we all had Tigers' problems we'd have to build onto both the house and garage.  But I'm happy with one wifey and our two Enfields.  Will.

Welcome!

I just gave in to the obsession, and enjoy obsessing about Bullets.

I'm sure that I have one of the more severe cases of Bullet obsession here.

Guess your problem's been around a long long year but has it laid your soul to waste? If not, what's the problem?  ;D Welcome to the forum.
