We have a criminal jury system which is superior to any in the world;
and its efficiency is only marred by the difficulty of finding twelve men
every day who don't know anything and can't read.
-Mark Twain
Think the best phrase for me would be a "Vanilla" gun owner. Every firearm is duly fired and lovingly cleaned, of hardy stock and I claim the proficiency of a novice.
Nothing special.
I've been "gun culture" before I can remember. Grew up around guns, shooting, hunting, reloading, etc. My favorite room at my grandpas was "the gun room"...! So I guess I'm a "born and raised" kind of gun person. And, to paraphrase the famous Okie, I never met a gun I didn't like.
I'm actually a weapons person, not just "a gun nut". There is no qualitative difference between deadly weapons; the knife, firearm, or blunt object will all render one equally comatose. To place the firearm in a different category of device is ludicrous and specious.
I am perhaps equally divided between historical interest and defensive utility as purchasing factors in my weapons.
Forgot to add the kind of gunner I would like to be.A rich one so I could afford a MA-Duece
Hows that!!!!!!!!!!!

I guess I would have to classify myself as a shooter because it encompasses all categories, especially that of a handgunner and rifleman. I am begining to really enjoy those evil looking assault weapons, they really make liberals cringe
