I have a friend that is extremely liberal and we have some interesting conversations about politics. Once he was referencing something said by another conservative he knew and at the end he said "you would like this guy, he is a gun nut like you".
I am sure he didn't mean it as insulting, but it seems to be a moniker that liberal anti gunners place on any person owning a fire arm, for any purpose.
I have noticed that the gun owners in this, and many other forums also refer to themselves as "Gun Nuts".
Just woindering how others see this term; personally, I prefer to use a term that doesn't support the anti gun community agenda. I am not willing to make an issue of it when a anti gun activist calls me a gun nut, they can kiss my ass if they don't like it, but it seems a little like poking ouseleves in the eye with a sharp stick when we use it.
