You know you are addicted to guns when?

[mesinge2]

When friends hate that you point out the mistakes in movies that actors make with guns.
Like in Red Heat, Arnold firing 18 rounds out of a S&W model 29, for shame. Or the cocking noise when someone draws a glock.

 

[KarenTOC]

When you're driving and the license plate on the car in front of you begins JMB and you think "AHA! Another gun lover!" and then you realize, no, that's just the standard plate with random letters that just accidentally spell something meaningful.

 

[Rush_Fan]

When your beloved wife asks you, "What gun do you want for Christmas this year?" God, I love her!

When your wife gives you a Remington 700 in .308 as a wedding present (True story)!

 

[mesinge2]

When leaving the house your outfit is decided by which gun your carrying that day.

 

[beeenbag]

When your wife sends you to ACE hardware to pick up a chair for the porch and you return home with no chair and a pound of reloder 10x, 200 small rifle primers and 200 winchester 9mm rounds.

When you own a gun for each room of your house and you are now trying to figure out what would be the perfect shower-gun ...you know, something that won't rust when wet, to be kept in a suction-cup mounted holster in the shower.

-That's what I am looking for.

Easy, a Hi Point. Mostly plastic covered and cheap; so if it rusts - who cares

The real problem is finding a nice pair of tactical scissors to keep in the shower in case you have to cut it open.

 

[Rail Driver]

Why would you vacuum seal a GLOCK?! That's a shower gun if I ever saw one... you can soak a GLOCK in a bucket of salt water for a week and pick it up, not bother to shake it off, and it will still fire. I'd either use premium (sealed primer) ammo or seal the primers myself with a bit of silicone caulk or whatever you have handy that is waterproof, applied with a toothpick around the edge of the primer to keep water out.

 

[TheHossUSMC]

When empty your bank account on guns and then decide to quit college and go back to work for the Mercs another year overseas to afford more guns. Plus they give you cool guns while you work.

 

[Still 2 Many Choices!?]

If your firearm collection is worth more than your car or truck(and the difference is growing), you might have a problem!

Still 2 Many Choices!?

 

[CTGunner]

When you spend more time reading about guns than shooting them.

When you spend more time reading about guns than shooting them.

Caught me.

 

[mongo4567]

When you buy ammo for guns that you don't yet own.

When you're house shopping, you only consider houses that have room for safe storage of your firearms (slab floor, climate control).

 

[joeyl]

When my wife asked how many guns do you have? and I really had to think about it.
When my non shooting friends (not anti, just not into it) ask how many, and I lie because they just wouldn''t get it.

 

[swiftak]

When its a nice day outside and you're reading this crap on the internet.

 

[CTGunner]

When its a nice day outside and you're reading this crap on the internet.

Excuse me? This is hardly crap...it's entertainment!

 

[Carter]

When you spend all of your graduation money on a new rifle.

When you have 500 rounds .223, 70 some shotgun rounds, 200 .40 caliber, 600 some .22, 40 7.62x39 (need to get more), and still plan to buy more.

Oh, and you go to gun stores with the gf instead of the mall.

 

[mesinge2]

When your idea for a decoration in your home is a 105 mm M2A1 (M101A1) howitzer HE Cartridge filled with random brass:

[kragluver]

When you pick up brass at the range for calibers you don't shoot because you may one day own one.

When you bend over in the parking lot to pick up a stray wheel weight to add to your bullet casting raw material.

 

[DRYHUMOR]

When you think about "thinning the herd", and then immediately think "well, maybe not".

When you have rifles and shotguns that don't get shot much, with several hundred rounds for each caliber/gauge, and think "well, maybe I'll sell them after I shoot up all that ammo". But never make much effort to do so.

And a really big one for me:

I figure how much guns and/or ammo my overtime will buy as it acculmulates...

 

[NMGonzo]

Caught me.

Yabbut ... unlimited funds will be nice to have.

 

[Ignition Override]

You guys are Originals.

What if you only became interested in guns at all, in the fall of 2007?
This was at age 52. Better late than never.

 

[TCOV]

When you transfer money out of your IRA to buy another old Colt or Winchester because they might be a better investment. Done it a couple tmes.
