"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Anyone ever heard of European American Firearms? I'd never heard of these guys before. I can't believe what I'm seeing, they sell an absolutely gorgeous 10mm pistol for less than $500.

I've been lusting for a P226 X-Five in .40 cal., but I can't bring myself to drop $3,500 on a handgun. But that 10mm looks like a winner, it's a mothertrucking powerhouse of a round that doesn't break your wrist like the Desert Eagle.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

What about the shipping & handling? I've thought about the 10mm as well as the 45 Gap, but ammo availability has always affected my decision.

Hah, I thought this topic title was "FAA Firearms". Now THAT would be a party.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Well you'd have S&H with any internet order, but on the EAA website they have a healthy list of local dealers (for Ohio anyway). There are some beauties from EAA on gunbroker, but the 10mm selection is limited.

You'd do best to pick the exact model you want and order it from the closest local dealer.

These are exactly the guns I've been looking for: a line of heavier "postmodern" 1911-inspired designs. I can't stand the modern polymer pistols, they look like walmart and they don't have any weight to them. Weight is not an issue with the 9mm, but for anything bigger than a 9 you want some weight to offset recoil. I had an XD-40 for awhile and hated it, it was very snappy.

Well, the .40 is notorious for being "snappy." You shouldn't give up on polymer pistols so quickly. Check out the Glock 20 or 20SF (short frame). Reliable guns that hold a lot of rounds. Not very flashy, though, if that's what you're looking for.

Good price here.

Pretty good review here.
