unfortunatly other hobbies are wasteful. The time you spend 'blank'ing is time that could be spent training, shooting, or reloading.

Those of us who know Mike Irwin knows what he means by "wife beating." Mike is too shy to admit that "wife beating" is his wife beating the bejezus out of him. :eek: It's generally followed by his counter-attack consisting of an incessant barrage of "Yes dear." "Whatever you say dear." "You know what's best for us dear." :D

So what hobbies are natural with guns? Hunting. Reloading. Reading (lots of gun books and perhaps even military history) and a type of collecting most of us never intended to get into: safe collecting.
 
Imagine for a minute, you could be sitting there in a titanium bathtub strapped to a 30 MM Gatling gun upside down over a target with depleted uranium bullets and its all free to the shooter! Now THAT is a hobby. Aviation has it all, hunting, shooting, drinking beer...

Mine are:

-learning and living Torah (far more than a hobby, it is litererally the reason that G-d put me on Earth)
-reading
-history
-collecting pipes (and blending my own pipe tobacco)
-cigars
-fishing
-I'm about to start reloading (I have almost all my equipment- just need powder and deburring equip)
-listening to music (not much of a hobby, but the stuff around it is- setting up a truely good stereo, owning several hundred CDs)
 
Physics.
Running.
Small-boat sailing.
Literature and poetry (hence the alias).
Cycling.
Playing with my kids/doing stuff with my family.
 
Radio Control Cars (what?! They are fun!)
Video/computer Games
DVD Watching/buying (Can that be a hobby? Or just collecting? :) )
Reading a lot
Soon to be reloading (I keep on saying that dangit)

Used to be able to do photography in HS.
 
I deleted the offending part.

I shouldn't have posted it -- those of you calling me to task are right.

I was joking, but there's an edge behind the humor.

Even in the depths of the crash and burn part of my marriage I never raised a hand to my ex-wife, but in those moments when we were doing our best to hurt each other as badly as possible mentally I actually got a look at what could cause an otherwise sane person, male or female, to lash out.
 
I actually thought is was very funny.

I naturally assumed you meant your wife beating you for buying more guns. I know that in my short marrige, I bought one gun and was brow beaten about it at least once a week for four long miserable years. But I am over that now. :D
 
Oddly enough, the issue of buying guns was never a problem between my former spouse and me. She never complained when UPS dropped another one off.
