I had a gun dream...

Alright soo i went to bed and had a dream..

I Was in a library with a M1Garand with a squad of WWII soldiers and we were set up in a bunker. then all of a sudden Those Orcs off Lord of the rings came out of the ceiling.But the Browning .30cal fired at them and soo did everyone else in the squad including me. Then all of a sudden the orcs flaked us and then i woke up.. A dream id never forget ;) True story ;)
 
I've noticed this Time/caliber thing also. I often get cash recipts in caliber ammounts. My wife thinks I'm just wierd...I mean because I even notice it.

I had a dream not too long ago, involving one of my favorite weapons- The P-90!!!!!

We pulled up to the side of the road (We beingme and four or five other guys- maybe three, all looking in wierd suits like me (anyone whos played MGS2 and knows what the arsenal tangu armed with p90's looks like- that was us)

There was this wierd concrete upraised parkish are with benches,steps, and a highrise (that was only like 50 feet tall, but had glass windows ,etc) next to it. We started firing at badguys in the windows.

I actually RELOADED. TWICE! Im so proud of myself for that :) And it was actually around what would be 50 rounds too.
Then these guys pulled up in an old caddy, armed with what i think was hk G3 typish rifles, we killed em.

Ah man, i love gun dreams. I was fortunate enough to once get a dream where i was a sniper, using an M1 garand. And yet another time, i was on a medievil battlefield, crushing enemies with a war hammer., That was a good dream!!!

And say what you will, but in dreams killing people seems to bring exileration and happines.

In real life, its a far different story, as witnessed by countless members of the human race. I expect if i ever have to kill someone those dreams will become nightmares. I relaize this, but i am being honest. Im not going to lie and say i dont enjoy those dreams. This would be false.
 
When I can't sleep I count guns (instead of sheep). As for gun dreams I've only had a couple but each time I woke up with an erection. :D
 
Once or twice a week I'll have a dream where I'm in a life threatening situation. I'll try to use my carry weapon, but it will misfire or jam and I will keep trying to fix/use it but it still won't work. And when all hope is lost and I'm done for I wake up. I wonder what this means.:confused:
 
Ok, a bullet train leaves terminal M40A at 3:08 travelling at 2700 feet per second. If another bullet train left terminal M60 at the same time (3:08) travelling at 2900 feet per second, how many bullet trains have to leave before other bullet trains stop arriving?

:D
 
Funny usually in dreams guns don't work... but in a recent one I had to use a shotgun...

I could see the pellets of buckshot spread and hit their targets... made me think it would be a cool effect to see in a video game.

kennyboy,

I didn't realize you were a combat vet, which would explain the dreams. What unit were you with, and where were you? Me, I went to Afghanistan with 3rd BDE, 101st ABN DIV (AASLT).

OEF_VET,
I am not a war vet like you. When I referred to my buddies, I was just talking about my gun buddies, not war/military buddies. I incessantly think about/use guns and have a deep interest in military history, etc. Those hobbies may be the cause of my dreams. However, I can't say for certain. Sorry about the confusion.

Those are the same kind of dreams that bother me. Only my dreams occur monthly, not weekly.

Well put.
 
I had a dream once that made me buy another gun....

I dreamed that my wife and I were staying at a hotel. I woke up and saw three guys trying to steal my truck. Telling my wife to call the police and lock the door behind me, I went outside to confront the thieves (mistake #1). As I walked toward them, they turned and started shooting at standing-out-in-the-open me (mistake #2). I aimed my Security-Six 2" .357Magnum and double-tapped each bad guy. After my third double-tap, a car drove up with Baddie #4 and started shooting at me and my empty gun (mistake #3). :what:

A week after having that dream, I traded that Ruger in for a P-95 9mm.

A year after that trade, I realized that dream was a problem in TACTICS...not hardware.

I miss that revolver.... :(
 
.30 Cal Steaks

When buying steaks at the store I always gravitate towards ones whose price is the same number as used for a rifle caliber. I like to buy steaks priced at $7.62. I refer to them as thirty caliber steaks. Yes, I know this it is very silly.
 
I often have the "gun won't work" dream. For me, they range from mildly annoying and disheartening (The gun I've always wanted and now it's mine! Except for the fact that the slide won't go into battery, the mag is full of water, and the whole thing is made of plastic.) to the terrifying; The Bad Guys are coming for me and mine RIGHT NOW and I can't get the damn bolt closed, and if I do, there wont' be a round in the chamber, and if I chamber one, the firing pin will break, and even if it doesn't, it'll be a squib round which leaves a bullet halfway down the barrel. . .

I should probably note that I've never been in combat, or the service for that matter.

The general theme extends to other weapons and toys I've lusted after. I dreamed I had a lightsaber once (come on, who doesn't want a lightsaber?:D ) Flipped the switch and the damn thing spat out a meter-long glowing green limp noodle. Now there's one for Freud. . .
 
Actually...
First, I thought you were punning on the Japanese cartoon Gunnm (re-titled Battle Angel Alita for import to the US -- great read, but quite violent, it's also suprisingly deep)

Second, I had one last week. I was at my grandfather's house, and I was a dragon, and I was dry-firing the Ruger SP-101 I enjoyed so much at the local range. Also dry-fired a Kel-Tec p-3at a couple times, too, but mostly I had the Ruger in hand, imagining I was about to blow holes in the birdfeeder through the kitchen window. I think in the dream I was having a bout of the new-toy syndrome, methinks I just got the Ruger before going to my grandfather's. Not sure why the hell I was a dragon, though I was still pretty small, and I still fit in the kitchen chairs pretty well.

Third, I once saw a license plate that read "K32 KEL" While this fits the convention of Florida plates, I swore for the rest of the week that it was deliberate. Then I realized that K* pistols are a Kahr naming convention, and if this was subtle-but-deliberate, it would have been "P32 KEL".
