I'm sure a lot of these have been around before, but there were several that I hadn't heard. Enjoy! :D


You might be a "Gun Nut" if:


-----you have ever loaded a drawer up with so much ammo that you can't open it


-----when someone asks how many guns you have, you have to think about it for a minute


-----you have ever bought ammo in a caliber that none of your guns fire


-----the guns you took to the range cost more then your car


-----you carry a different gun every day of the week


-----whenever you can't decide which gun to get, you get both


-----you get your wife/girlfriend to wear Hoppes 9 instead of her usual perfume.


-----you take so many guns to the range and don't shoot half of them.


-----you have an extra room in your house just for ammo and guns.


-----your home page is set to a firearms related webpage.


-----you count the number of bullets that people shoot in a movie and then scream a top of your lungs BULLSH**!!! when a guy using a revover mows down a battalion of criminals without reloading.


--- you know more about the Constitution than your lawyer.


--- your wife leaves you and you don't mind. Your dog gets run over by a truck and you barely flinch. But you accidentally drop your favorite gun, gets scratched and you cry a river.


---- if you ever thought to do your own "Gun Buy-Back" program. Let's face it, even a Saturday Night Special for a $20 Blockbuster Gift Card is a good deal.


---- if you have more holster than Imelda Marcos had shoes.


---- if you never stop looking for pre-ban hi-cap magazines... even in a supermarket.


-----if you can field strip any firearm you own hanging upside down and blindfolded


-----if you have ever bought a gun to fill an old holster someone gave you. (So many times I can no longer count 'em.)


---- if you have ever bought a gun to shoot up a half-filled 20-round box of ammo someone gave you, because you didn't have a rifle in that caliber yet. Ditto for when someone gives you an old set of reloading dies in some obscure caliber.


-----if you have ever accidentally run a pocket pistol through the wash and spin cycles, still in your pants pocket.


----- if you do not own a single fabric-based item (clothing, bags or suitcases) that does NOT set off the explosives trace detector at the airport.


-----if you have ever bought a gun that is identical to TWO you already own, because the first two are out-of-production NIB examples and you can't bring yourself to shoot them.


-----When buying something with pocket change, you have to pick the dimes and quarters out of a handful of loose ammo.


-----if you regularly find guns around the house and in far corners of the safe that you have no memory of buying ... and such discoveries no longer surprise you.


-----if you have ever busted a spring on your car from piling too much ammo in the trunk on the way to a shoot.


-----For you NFA junkies: You know the birthday of your BATF examiner, even though you can't remember your wife's.


-----if you have ever researched a firearm you own to find out the date it was manufactured ... and then thrown a birthday party for it.


-----if you go to WalMart for back-to-school supplies, then must explain to your wife why that includes 1k of 9mm Win white box.


-----if your dog is "Dog" and your cat is "Cat," but each of your guns has a name. (Well, at least the guns you're closest to -- ya know, the ones you've bonded with.)


-----when you say "Dang! That is a sexy looking piece!", your wife knows you are not looking at another woman.


----- whenever you see a story on TV about a gator spotted in a neighborhood, you think "Crap, there goes another target of opportunity."


----- if your AR, after installing all the new gadgets, now weighs more than a FAL.


----- if any time a weather person on TV gives the latest update on the hurricane du jour, you wonder if you have enough ammo.


---- if your hurricane panels have shooting ports.


-----if you have to have additional homeowner's insurance specifically for firearms.


-----if the cops have ever called Homeland Security after pulling you over


-----if you have ever carried more then two guns at once


-----when the local gunshop needs an obscure magazine, they call you


-----when you call your local rep's office, the guy who answers groans and says "I'll tell him again not to vote for AWB" as soon as he hears your name


-----if you have more holsters then pants


-----if the movers all groan when they see your gunsafe


-----if you spend half an hour bitching about how the good guy in the movie killed 20 badguys firing full-auto from the hip


-----if your spend another half an hour explaining how the movie would have been over in 10 minutes if any of the bad guys victims had a gun


-----if you regularly just sit and stare at your guns for a while, and the rest of your family doesn't find this strange


-----if you reach into your pocket for change at the local 7-11 and pull out loose ammo along with your change.


-----if the guy working at the 7-11 knows you and isn't surprised.


-----if you have a poster of Burt Gummer holding an 8 bore rifle. ("Guess you broke into the wrong @#$% rec room, didn't ya!")


-----if you can actually take a nap in a gun range.


-----if you felt a knot in your stomach when they showed US Soldiers destroying a cache of brand spanking new AK-74 on the news.


-----if you considered that the cheaply goldplated HK MP-5 was reason enough to oust Hussein.


-----When you mount a tripod, bayonet and flash suppressor to your N.A.A. 22 MINI MAG


------If you do a complete breakdown of all your weapons just to stay in practice - "especially if you haven't made it to the range lately"


------if you find more .22LR than loose change when you clean out your car.


------if your nightstand is stacked with gun rags and firearm technical and reloading manuals.


------if you build a portable reloading system so you can reload in the family room and not miss your favorite tv-show.


----if the local SWAT teams stop by your house for guns and ammo before heading out to the big bust.
 
Guilty as charged.

One time i put so much ammo in a drawer the bottom fell out. Do you think that counts?
 
Sigh...to quote sturmruger...."Guilty as charged" is more than appropriate.
