I've managed to cure my BRD, put it in remission, or at least make it easier to manage. I followed a specific protocol:
1. Get a CHP. 2. Buy a 1911. 3. Buy another 1911. 4. Buy another 1911. 5. Start looking at Hipowers and Walthers. 6. Start researching Glocks. 7. Pick up a Ruger LCP. 8. TBD. |

Restore a Garand 3. Buy another Garand 4. Start looking at 1911's 5. Start looking at M1 carbines Hope I never start spending as much time on the CMP site as I do here. |

Since I'm retired mil and VFW life member, the lure of getting a Garand shipped to my door with the only external interaction being the notary at the bank is almost too much to resist. Almost.

| Unfortunately RBRD has had the opposite effect; it's cured (actually probably only put it in remission) my wheelgun disease. I've stopped buying every wheelgun I see, but now I can't resist the draw of the retro AR-15. Maybe I should buy something off-the-wall and see how that goes... |

The Retro AR hobby is as much an addiction as the FAL hobby. All FAL's are retro and from all over the world. I gathered parts and reassembled a Falklands War Argentine FAL (as well as many others) around a set of hand guards.
Yes, it's pretty sad but hey, it's better than doing crack!

I got terminal BRD:
Unlike the other posters: (1) Sold 1911 Remington Rand & P35, (2) Bought another upper, (3) Sold a bunch of rare Arisakas (Cav rifle, Cav carbine, etc), (4) Bought more AR parts, (5) Sold some Italian Vetterli carbines (with bayonets!!), (6) Bought more parts, (7) Sold L42A1 complete in the wooden case, (8) Bought another...... Well - you get the idea PS: Now I need another 1911 
ETA: No4 MkII (one of the new, in wrap rifles), 1941 Carcano, 1911 Schmidt-Rubin rifle, Ruger Super Blackhawk, Remington 03A3( What was I thinking!?

One can also get into old school FALs and Galils like the IDF used in the 70s and 80s. |

You gotta do at least one. Everyone needs one. |
| If all you "retro" junkies wanna really go bonkers,,,try putting together a Army M1C sniper garand,then go for the Marine Corp MC1 sniper garand!!!!! Not many of either made to begin with!!!!!!! P.S. they must be built with 100% original verified receivers and parts....... |

I do still have at least one of each USGI manufacturer, though.
