You know you are addicted to guns when?

Great responses. I would add something I just did today--buying earplugs in lots of 200.

When your wife is standing at the back door, bags in hand, saying, "It's me or the guns," and you take an extra beat to think about it.

And you pick the guns anyways.

When you get enough guns that your wife can't tell if there are more than the last time she saw them and she starts referring to them as "all those guns". Makes it easy to slip a new one in the safe.

"all those guns"

Read some Patrick F. McManus have you? If not look up his essay "Gun Running" in one of his books. It's hilarious, and he uses that phrase. I fortunately came to my 2nd marriage with that many

Whenever you see "2:23, 2:40, 3:08, 3:38, 3:57, 4:10 and 5:57" on the clock and think of all those cool rifles that you've always "been meaning to buy."

 

[Humakavula]

when after three pages of trying to prove to yourself that "no I'm not addicted" your lady friend is pointing and laughing at EVERY POST and saying "that is so you"... ah well... here it goes..

Hello I'm Humakavula, and I have a "problem" he he

When you remember your ex-wife saying, "It's either me or the guns" -- and you still have the guns.

When you say, "I got a Ruger SP101 for my wife.", and you still think that was a good trade.

OK, that made me laugh out loud. Love to share that with the missus, but I dare not.

I actually lost a Ruger Security Six in my divorce.

















Darn I miss that gun

When you have more than three "dedicated bathroom shotguns".

 

[kayak-man]

When you site a book written by Jeff Cooper as a source in your High School final English paper.

I married a woman that can shoot as well as I and is still adding her collection of cool rifles, that she had when we met.......

I was just watching a sit com, and there was a birth scene. I noticed the hospital room ACROSS the hall from the birthing suite was room 223.

Hi, I'm Dan, and I have a problem.

 

[mata777]

When you ditch high school to go shoot. Very bad on my part, but I managed to graduate with good grades.

When your wife stops asking about ammo purchases or "why do you need another..." She's learned that it's a effort in futility to begin a "discussion" or another argument on the matter.

How long does that take? I've got 2 years in... I'm just waiting! haha

 

[mesinge2]

When you first started collecting you said: "I don't want odd or exotic calibers"

And now when your wife says: "You have six 1911s why do you need another one?"

You reply with: "Not one in 460 Rowland!"

 

[THe Dove]

When you actually justify shooting practice to your wife by saying "Honey, I have to practice in order to ward off any bad guys that wanna do you harm!!!! Really Honey!!!!"
