Ever notice how Murphy's Law is absolute? and "Where's your gun while Hot-Tubbing?
"Murphy" always seems to strike at the most inopportune time. For me it was my Hot Tub.
Looked out Sunday AM and saw that the "Ready Light" was off. This usually means that the heater has shut down and the tub temp has dropped below 100 degrees. Well it was a little more than that. The circuit board that controls the heater had decided it was time to "fry". No power now to heater at all. The race is now on. Ordered a part to be shipped Next Day Air and confirmed that the supplier had it in stock. NOW for the good part. I have a "tub" that is rapidly cooling and will become an ice-cube soon if UPS doesn't arrive today. There's 4" of snow on local roads and the temp this AM was 5 degrees.
Will UPS make it in the nick of time?
Will I have a 500 gallon "Ice Cube"?
Will the $1500 worth of pumps and lines freeze because of the failure of a $100 part?
Will let you know. Please keep fingers crossed for me.
Now to justify the post by going back "On Topic". When enjoying a relaxing session in the Hot Tub (your's, a friends, or a Hotel's) where do you place/keep your firearm? I find that mine is readily available between the folds of a towel at "tubside". Any of you have other methods of keeping a firearm handy while "soaking"?
