You know you've lost it on guns when

you offer to buy some .380 ammo for someone you have only "met" on TFL because you know they are jonesing to shoot their new LCP and can't find ammo/.
 
I have done a majority of these------I have lost it. :D:D:D:


For my fellow LEOs "Hon, they just mandated another new gun at work, that's why I get an uniform allowance"
 
...you walk into your local purveyor of fine firearms, and are greeted with "Have we got something you will want to look at..". And you put it on lay-away.
 
your gun dealer holds one of your gold cards so all you have to do is call and order what you want and make one trip to pick it up.
 
When your fave gun shop

Keeps ringing you to ask for advice..... or see if you have something 'in stock' because they are out and cant get any :eek:

When most gun shops you go to dont have anywhere near the amount of guns, ammo & knowledge as you do :D
 
When you go to a restauraunt.....

And ask for a shrimp coctail for primers......

The main course.... ummmmm can't decide.... I think I'll have the "whole shootin' match" Oh, and bring me some salt peter & a flask of fffg pepper.

& some chocolate bullets for desert eagle. :D
 
When you enjoy plinking with a 458 magnum. I actually do that from time to time with cast bullets. Thats fairly sick I would say.
 
When you jump in at the gun shop and sell a gun to a guy and then direct him to the salesman for the paperwork. I enjoy doing that.
 
When you leave for a gun show carrying an empty gun case and telling the wife you're trying to sell "this gun". Then returning from the gun show with the case now full of a new rifle and telling the wife "yeah. I couldn't sell it, guess I'll try again at the next show"

That is a good one... I will have to remember that!


When You have friends call you at 11:30 pm to resolve a bet about what rifle the British Snipers use.

When you walk into a gunstore and tell the clerk exactly how much money you have so he knows what his operating range is.

When you tell relatives that you want ammo/solvents/gun leather for whatever holiday is coming up.

When the clerks at a gunstore you haven't visited in 2 years all still know you by name.

When you have left a gun shop to get a rifle out of your personal collection to show to someone to resolve an argument.

When you pick your vacation hotel based on it's proximity to a gun range.

When you buy a pistol at a gunshow and when you get home, realize that it is the exact same one you sold a few years before.

You have more "Girls with guns" pics on your computer than actual porn.

You have burned a mix CD of your "shooting songs" that you listen to before a match or while cleaning guns.

You have tried to buy back a gun that you sold because the new owner isn't taking care of it.

The background pic in your cell phone is the prize of your gun collection.

You have talked friends into buying guns so you could shoot them and decide if you wanted one.

Talking a stranger into buying a gun when I am just hanging out at the gun shop is great. I talked a guy into a Mosin-Nagant the other day, one of his friends ask me if I could order some model of S&W and I had to say "You need to talk to one of those guys over there, I don't work here" :D
 
This one just in: You go see the new X-Men movie and have no problem with people shooting lasers from their eyes but you complain that the sound effects for the minigun and the M2 Browning didn't sound realistic.
 
You havent moved in decades; not because you love your house, but because you dont want to move your gun safe(s).

The last time you qualified on your duty weapon, you had to instruct the certifier on how to instruct everyone else how to adjust their sights.

The number of times your wife rolls her eyes in a day is roughly equal to the number of times you reference a firearm.

"Manageable recoil" has come to mean when the wife learns you got a new gun without telling her, but you manage to talk her down without a divorce lawyer.

When people ask you gun or reloading questions and you can quote the thread line on TFL that will answer the question.

“There are other web sites other than TFL?”

You compare the curves of a 1911 with Halley Berry’s,,,,,,, never mind.:o
