If when you were a kid, way back in the early '60 (That's 1960's for you smartypants.) you wouldn't play with "Monkey Division" toy guns because you knew "They never made no real guns like those." 
You might be a gun nut if...

. . . you reschedule or cancel an important medical or dental procedure because there's a gun show coming up.
. . . you delay or cancel a medical/dental procedure because you need the money for "something urgent."

Time to resurrect an old thread that still makes me laugh when I read it.
Two new ones:
Exhibit A
When you are in the gunstore and the owner pulls out a scope to show to a gentleman customer and the customer asks him what the scope is. The owner starts muttering to himself about what he thinks it is and is reaching for his order catalog to check it out; Without thinking, you open your magnificent piehole and inform him that it is a Tasco 6-24x42mm Varmint Series with a Mil-Dot reticle. You have one and it has your personal recommendation because it works great on your .270.
LOL maybe it was not that bad. Still funny though.
Exhibit B
You are moving to your first apartment because you are getting married and realize just how much reloading tools, accessories, and components that you really have.
1) A five gallon bucket full of various brass.
2) Four reloading presses.
3) 16 lbs of gun powder.
4) 6,000 plus primers.
5) 5,000 bullets or so.
6) Currently reload 10 calibers and gauges.
Now some of you out there say, "That is not that much, I have a whole basement Armory." Just remember, this "unnamed individual" is still in college and still does not have that degree yet with a regular full-time job. Being 22, broke, and in college stinks.
"Honey, we might need that 14 ft Uhaul, the 10 ft one will not cut it."
It's fun to be a gun-nut!

Bushmaster... I never realized why my Dad was laughing when I told him I made some alterations to it.

I didn't think I was a gun nut, but after tonight I'm beginning to wonder. I woke up at about 3 A.M. and thought "The Blackhawk I was fondling before I went to bed felt and sounded like it was dry as a bone." It bugged me enough that I got up, oiled the gun and went back to bed.
Don't know if it was mentioned, but:
If you look at a stash of 20 unused bottles of Break-Free CLP and realize it's time to pick up some more as you're getting low.
If you inventory your ammo, realize you have 10,000 rounds and then wonder, "Would this really be enough if the SHTF?" and then decide you better buy more to be on the safe side.
If you shop at the mall for clothing and then think, "This would go really well with my 1911." while looking at a shirt.
If the local gun store knows you by your full name and has your phone number memorized.
If you have a separate work-bench and tools for just your guns.

You spend more time at work on THR then you do working.
You recently went to the gun store to look at shotguns, could not decide between the Rem 870 or the Benelli Nova while at the store and on the way out you tell your friend you have decided to buy both just in case.

How about " you buy several of the same gun in different calibers so your wife won't notice how many guns you have ?
