Who knew 2 springs under the grip, have them but don’t give a shit anymore

Don’t know why but I don’t care about anything anymore, wife has a surgery coming and I’m not sure about mine

Guns just don’t mean anything anymore

Friend, please say something to your physician. If you lost interest suddenly in like two weeks, and you notice the change, there could well be a medical reason. Please don’t ignore.

You aren’t required to be interested in guns- other members here are here for the people, not the gun talk- but a drastic loss if interest sounds like a close relative of mine. He got medical help  and it made a huge difference.

Actually had my well baby yearly visit last week, pegged all the questions so the doc wanted mental health to see me that day….but it was the VA and nobody was available so either call the national mental health crisis number or make an appointment for next month 

neuropathy has been really really bad & that’s what’s driving the bus….trying supplements to get it under control 

Im on mutt hurt meds, nothing major no ssri’s but one to help sleep and it works great and something for anxiety im slowly weaning off of. The VA wants to throw pills at everything and I don’t believe in the shotgun method to cover all bases 

Traveling is my therapy seeing and exploring this great country of ours…and that’s not been possible so far, wife retires at the end of the school year so that opens up all kinds of possibilities 

No snow this winter, no rain & everything is brown and dusty/dirty…just depressing

You’re on it. Good for you.

I’m retiring at the end of May, also. I’ll have to pick up some kind of work because retirement income won’t be enough, but these modern 12 year-year-olds, and their families, have gotten the better of me. Travel is great. We’re going back or Alaska this summer. I’ve got some trips to Tucson (eldest daughter) pending.

Wife could not live on her retirement check, she’s a para and makes about 1/3rd of what a teacher makes but she did not want the responsibility of a teacher 

Teachers here make $80k and up at the 20 year mark (masters degree) & she works with a math teacher that makes little over 100k after 25 years 

neighbor lady is a retired teacher, she punched out at 20 years and her retirement is quite a bit more than my 20 years military retirement but my Tricare healthcare is way better than her retirement healthcare plan  

And the teachers union say teachers here need a raise, they don’t make enough 

I don’t know what’s harder to achieve 20 years as a teacher or in the military

Finally pulled on my big girl pants, put on the Magpul K2+ grip, folding stock/brace and SB pistol brace. Opened her up and she was bone dry, stupid dry so I switched the charging handle out to a Geissele one & lubed her up like it was raining, super wet with oil and that in itself made a huge difference

Have to mount the optic, handstop and light & then zero it….might get some heat tape & wrap the rail as neuropathy in the hands can be bad & since it’s a travel gun………
