What would be your dream job?

[CountGlockula]

Since we all love guns, I would like your opinion on what would be a Dream Job you want to have that relates to firearms.

My list are the only ones I can think of. If you're currently in you Dream Job please share the good, bad and the ugly.

Submit your thoughts!

 

[35Rem]

Probably a competition shooter for Springfield for S&W...free guns and ammo...get to play with the new stuff before anyone else...be still my heart..

engineering school:banghead:

 

[CountGlockula]

35Rem-You were too soon to respond buddy! LOL! I just put in the poll. Then you'd want to be in the Industry.

 

[coyote_jr]

a gun store sales person? Wow that is a pretty modest dream if you get some takers on that one.

I would like to get paid to take newbies to the range that would be a nice life.

 

[Vern Humphrey]

My dream job is to be Vice President in Charge of Quality Control at a nation-wide chain of brothels.

 

[Geronimo45]

Industry... or a job as sergeant of a three-man tactical team in one of America's largest indoor shopping areas.

 

[Werewolf]

Hmmm...

I suppose being a highly paid reviewer of sporting and not so sporting firearms for an honest gun rag would be cool...

But since honest and gun rag is pretty close to being an oxymoron being a reviewer for one probably just isn't in the cards.

 

[Punkermonkey]

Industry

Uhhhhh...

Wouldn't being a quality inspector/tester be more gratifying?

 

[Punkermonkey]

Quality Control and Long-Term Field Testing for HK!

 

[Vern Humphrey]

Cory Ford who used to write "The Lower Forty" column for Field and Stream told of a guy at a cocktail party who asked him what he did.

"I write a column for Field and Stream."

"Wow! That must be an easy job!"

"Yeah. I just roll a blank sheet of paper into the typewriter -- and stare at it until blood runs out both ears."

[Ohio Rifleman]

I'd love to work at/own the local gun shop where all the gun nuts go to hang out every day and talk guns and ammo. Modest dream, I know, but who here wouldn't love that?

The inspectors/testers have to take whatever's next. The Vice President chooses what he wants.

LOL Nice.


I think i'd rather work for a company, particularly if i was able to get a position that would let me influence future designs.

 

[MrDig]

Since none of the options involved Firearms, Exotic Dancers, and Wild Game, I voted Gunsmith. I know there is no job description that would involve all three, and truth be told I'm a little long in the tooth for the second of the three criteria. I could enjoy being a range officer though. Might make a nice PT retirement income.

Professional hunter, specializing in guiding Exotic Dancers.

 

[Red Tornado]

I was thinking shooter for Gun Tests, but 35 Rem and Vern have pretty compelling options.

[CleverNickname]

I think Jim Scoutten has it pretty good. Shooting USA and Car & Driver.

 

[MrDig]

VernHumphrey I kind of like the way you think.

 

[2TransAms]

Since we're dreaming I'd like to be independently wealthy and run a gun store for fun just so I could talk about guns all day. Like Corriea.



Actually my brother and I would like to start a gunshop/tattoo parlor but I'm pretty sure the city wouldn't go for that. Classy, I know.

 

[Mr White]

I picked neither, because I'm still holding onto the hope that someday, somewhere, someone will have a need for a balding, middle aged male adult film star whose name ISN'T Ron Jeremy.

But seriously, I do guns for fun. If I were to get a job involving guns, then guns would become work and would either cease to be fun or would at best become less fun, because no matter how much you enjoy your job, its still work.

 

[Ghost Walker]

Hmmm .... How about personal security for contestants in the Miss America Pageant.









(Actually, I'd like to try my hand working for one of the gunzines.)

 

[matt87]

Gunsmith specialising in creation of custom jobs, both repros/clones of rare or unusual guns and new designs. I'd love a deLisle carbine. Actually I could get one on a Section 1 FAC... hmm...

 

[AugustusMcCrae]

I voted for gun sales clerk but I'd really like to be one of those guys like Wayne Lapierre of the NRA or Larry Pratt of the GOA who debate folks like Helmke.
