I live in NC, and I am 17 years old. I am going to be a senior this year in highschool and I am currently employed at Subway. I live with my parents who are fairly anti-gun, so as of now, I only have 3 pellet rifles and am only able to shoot them about once a month; but, I plan on buying a 22lr and a shotgun within the next couple years once i get enough money saved up.

Welcome ABoard™ Sika Stalker!

It's always nice to have another international point of view.
It's also great to see the youth of the world carrying on the shooting sports tradition.
 
I am 24 (25 in September). I am a college student and single. I like long walks on the beech, holding hands... oh I am sorry wrong site.

I am half Mexican and Yugoslavian. And I am studying sociology so I can become a police officer. I may even go on to law school. Not sure what else to say other than I like guns, especially HKs and Sigs.
 
Sheesh! This has got to be the loooongest thread here!

69, divorced, living (not in sin) with good ex-#1 who won't reconcile. Retired broadcast journalist (please, no cracks about "What a contradiction in terms"); life-long shooter; Lifetime NRA Master in Outdoor Pistol; used to re-load, but no room in this house now; just got my first deer EVER (but with a bow); made magnificent venison chili today.
:D
 
Turned 21 this August, and am studying for my BS Chemistry degree, which I should have by this coming May. Applying to medical school like mad, so hopefully Ill be a doctor in the near future, but until then I do seasonal carnie work to keep me free during schoolin times :)
 
32, marketing executive, graphics designer, and survivor of the dotcom crash-and-burn era. And not the MBAhead generic flavor of marketing, I'd gone off on my own and pursued study in subjects as varied as english literature, psychology and sociology instead. I'd figured understanding how and why people think and decide on courses of action is more important than rote learning of flawed marketing assumptions written by other people.

Not married, so extra income can go for toys that go under the hood of the car, in the living room to watch, or guns. :) I'm one of those odd sorts who figured it was better to occasionally spend money on a series of girls, rather than lock into an arrangement that ends in buying diapers. :D

Though a good bit of income goes to having chosen to live in an area (Bedford, NH's upscale bit) where guns are a hobby, not a likely necessity! Segway, the place that makes those two-wheeled scooters that make patrol cops look unfortunately dorky, is right down the road.

If places like NYC and Boston were more like "Ghost in the Shell" instead of closer to Moscow under Stalin, I'd want to live in a city, but...as it is, libertarianism is more important to me than locale.
 
After the first 3 pages, I noticed it kept going to page 32 and didn't feel like reading it all right now.

25 y/o, work in a plastic injection molding factory, single. Live with grandparents have more hobbies than money. Got 4 guns this year, hoping to get another 1 or 2 by end of year.

Think about it this way. People will spend thousands on a stereo, satelite, game cube, boats, and golf, and membership to an exclusive vineyard. So why do we have to justify $800 on a firearm that will INCREASE in value while all the previous items depreciate. hmmmmm?

My guns are the only things I own that are appreciating assets.
