Every time I buy a gun I think "That should pretty much give me everything I will ever need." Trouble is, there is always another!

Face it WALKERs210...you are a worthless piece of gun loving scum...just like me. We are powerless against the allure of all manner of blued and stainless steel that is woven into something that even remotely resembles ordnance of the small arms configuration. It is a hopeless and relentless battle that never seems to subside for any longer than it takes us to re-emerge from a hiatus in the bunker while our last foray blows over at the homestead. We are consumed by this obsession to the point that our family has mostly given us up to this scurge...although, they still insist on pointing out that we are not making any overt effort to thwart this attack.
My friend, the only advice that I can give in dealing with this addiction is...to enjoy your poor health.

I think my fellow black powder brethren and I may well be the worst of the bunch as we don't even have a third party FFL holder getting involved, they simply ship guns to your door.
Then you can make volumes of smoke and feel the rolling thunder and man I need a pair of short '58's and some good leather.

Well I did prove that I could walk away, was offered a beautiful 1917 Eddystone at a price that was close to dirt cheap. But I did walk away, but in few days after I bought my SA 1911 45cal. KBBAILEY I have to admit that the BP bug had already bit, I did reduce the number of BP rifles down to only 3, flintlock pistols (1), precussion pistols about a dozen, Colt Walker, 3rd Model Dragoon, 1858, 1851 Navy, 1851 Sheriff and don't remember what is in the other cabinet.

I only need one or two more and I will be happy, one or two more room fulls that is.
I like to think my guns are an liquid asset/investment but really it is an addiction. But I'm ok with that.

Hello. My name is MistWolf. I have rifles, pistols and shotguns, some I have assembled myself. I have three more rifle kits needing assembly. I have owned and built several Jeeps. I am currently looking for my next Jeep. I am in a 12 Step Program in which I am never more than 12 steps from any of my firearms. Certain firearms I have reduced the number of steps to 2. My wife loves me. I don't have a problem. Life is good

I bought 79 guns last year. I have only bought 6 this year. I can stop buying guns at anytime.

I've found them to be like cars. Most sell for less (even if slightly less) than what I bought them for. The only way I see guns becoming worth more is if they stop making them or make them really hard to get. If you want something that will increase in price, buy gold.

Enjoy your addiction. Trust me on this one, there are a lot of worse things to be addicted to.
Agreed. I just sigh when I hear people saying that they buy guns as an "investment."
The definition of investment from dictionary.com: "the investing of money or capital in order to gain profitable returns, as interest, income, or appreciation in value."
No profitable returns to have. It might be considered a security, in that a portion of your wealth will remain stable as long as the gun is in your possession and taken care of. It will not make you money however.
