...you buy all your pants at least one size larger to accommodate a CCW!

...you see the numbers 5-4-7 on a license plate or phone number and it reminds you that you've always wanted a 9mm revolver!

...on at least one occasion you've waited until your wife was asleep or gone to bring a new gun into the house!

...you have more guns in your safe than it was originally designed for!

...you have to go out-of-state and before you check on flights, hotels, etc you go to packing.org to check on the state's CCW laws!

...while listening to music a friend asks you about your favorite group and you immediately think - "I can cover a penny with my RRA at 100 yards with a 55 grain Hornady SBT over 24 grains of Varget"!

...you have more holsters than socks in one of your dresser drawers!

...while admiring a beautiful women that has on tight, revealing clothes, you think 'how could she possibly carry a CCW in that outfit?'

...you've ended, or have avoided, at least one friendship because of that friend's anti-gun statements and views!

...you sign a letter or e-mail to someone with your 'forum name' rather than your given name!

...someone asks you what your favorite magazine is and you answer that, "MecGar's are okay, but I prefer factory"!

...while with your wife she asks you to stop at a local store so she can pick up some 'cover and concealer' and you think she wants to help you with your next IDPA match!

...you frequently turn off movies or other TV shows because you can't stand all of the improper and unsafe gun-handling!

...someone mentions 'porn', and you get excited by thinking about some really neat gun pics you've seen recently!

...the dealer at the local gun store calls you first whenever they get a used 1911 on a trade, just to see if you would be interested!

...you not only know who Massad Ayoob and John Connor are, but you have an opinion of them!

...if you don't get to the range or are able to shoot at least once a month you become depressed and irritable!

...intending to tick you off someone calls you a 'gun nut', but you laugh and consider it a badge of honor!!!!!

(feel free to add your own!)
 
"you might be a gun nut"at work you get an electronic access card and you ask for your favorite caliber (7.62) as your number:D
 
You might be....

.......,if all your pin numbers, access codes and passwords are gun names or calibers.:) .....Later,B.
 
you might be a gun nut if you work a customer service counter and randomly spot calibers in the mess of numbers (price, change, lotto, etc) :p
 
You might be a gun nut if:

you hold drinking conests to see who's fastest to completly disassemble then reassemble the 1911.

you can recite from every gun manual in your possession word for word, including french and spanish.

like a dog when his master says, "Wanna go for a walk?!" you get all excited and hang around the door whenever your wife says, "Wanna go shooting?!"

you use spent shotshells as improvised shot glasses.

you hire a baby sitter to watch your gun cabinet while you're away.

you have enough guns, ammo, and accessories to supply every home in your neighborhood and adjacent neighborhoods.

your cologne is Hoppes and your underarm deodorant is G96 Brand.
 
Let's see how many of these are true for me.....

I buy my pants larger to accomodate CCW.

I have more guns in my safe than it was designed for.

I have turned off the TV due to either unsafe gun handling or anti-gun bias.

I get irritable if I don't shoot for a month.

I spot calibers among numbers.

I have ended a friendship over the gun rights issue. However it was just one part of the guy's increasingly liberal philosophy that I could no longer stand.

You buy a bottle of whiskey just because it's called "Knob Creek"
 
you might be a gun nut if you spend over half of your net income a year on firearms and ammunition. - I'm guilty here:eek:

.......you go to buy a new car, and one of your primary concerns is how well your gun cases will fit in the trunk / back seat.

Doh....:uhoh: ....got me. Amazing how well a Mossberg 500 with and 18.5" barrel fits cross ways in the the back of a Liberty.

. if you have purchased reloading equipment for planned future gun buy

. if you are a member in more then 6 pro-gun forums

. if none of the post in this thread seem excesive to you.
 
......if you ever bought a gun because you found some grips for it at a really great deal (Missashot did it).

.....if you ever bought a gun because someone gave you ammo that was a different caliber than any of the firearms you currently owned.

....if you are willing to drive two or more hours, one-way, for three boxes of free ammo.

...if you are willing to drive three or more hours to go to a range that rents full-auto weapons.
