You may be a gun nut if...

Update to my earlier post:
You might be a gun nut if on a trip to Wal-mart you run to find your wife and take her to the jewelry counter and spend money on her (because she is special to you!). Then on the way out you go back by the gun department and buy the rifle you saw when you first came in.
A Henry Big Boy 44 (and fifty empty brass cartridges) now resides in my gun cabinet (and a new ring on my wifes finger, there went this years bonus check) :D

You might be a gun nut if you sleep on a $50 air matress because buying a real bed would mean one less gun you could potentially buy.
 
You may be a gun nut if your "wish list" of firearms easily out values the cost of your house, car, pretty much every other none firearm possesion you own.
 
When you dont want to clean out the trunk of your car because then you would lose count of how much ammo you fired last week
 
.... when you get your FFL03 and you shake like a leaf from excitment when you sign a copy over at a local store and you DON'T have to wait that extra 5 minutes for a check.

.... When You actually look forward to completely breaking down a gun because you have to clean off the cosmo (and I'm talking down to the last screw/pin on some of them :) ).

.... When you look at the gun "porn" on the boards and realize that you don't have penis envy, you have gun envy :eek:

(if that last one was out of line, please delete).

If the smell of federal shells being fired is better than anything you can remember smelling.

If you can't have fun without something going BOOM!

If the value and usage of your guns exceeds that of your car, or anything else you own. (not really fair in my case because I can't drive my volvo station wagon 'cause I'm 15)

If your friends don't like watching action movies, playing videogames with you because you constantly say how unrealistic everything is or just start naming all of the guns you see.

When people ask you a gun related question they lose interest because the answer is so long and complicated.

If your friend tells you that his brother got a gun and you ask him what it was and he doesn't know.......so you proceed to ask him details about it so that you can figure out what it is so that you can say: He should have bought a...

If you have a shotgun shell collection with shells 7 different colors.

You can't get your point across in a gun rights debate because your answers get far too complicated by going into EXACTLY how a particular gun works. (Can I get an amen skeetin'870?)

If when you talk to someone you don't know at school and they say "You're that gun guy right?"

Amen my brother amen.
Our school is full of antis and getting into a gun control debate somebody said that shooting holes in concentric circles on paper is training to kill somebody. And that assault weapons are weapons that can kill.
I need to get a new set of assault weapons cause mine dont seem to kill people. Just concentric circles and clay pidgeons
 
Yeah, I've noticed that my firearms aren't worth anything either. They go out and "kill people" but mine haven't in over the 20 years that I've owned a couple of them, the 10 years that I'm owned half of them, and 30 years since I'm owned all of them.

Stupid guns :p

you get a friend to see how many rounds of .22lr you can fire before the first on hits the hill "over yonder"

when shooting varmints with a .22 you pull the trigger twice "just in case"

you can be out of the truck have the gun loaded and the white tail on the ground before he gets 50 yards away from the bush and before the truck stops.

You almost never clean your house, but your guns are always spotless.

or if you undertake other hobbies (like leathercraft, reloading, wood finishing, lathe operation, metal plating, etc.) because it would be useful in furthering your interest in firearms...

If you have ammo that you need to buy a gun to shoot.

Guilty on all charges, your honor!!! :D :D :D

Here's two more: when people avoid you simply 'cause the're sick of hearing you talk about guns, and you have a shelf in your bedroom dedicated to someday topping this collection:

You have given your FFL neighbor, carpel tunnel sydrome, signing original transfer forms for you, JUST IN CASE! :)
 
about that pic, does anybody know a good place to obtain the military rounds. i see some 20mm as well as artilery and other millitary munitions.
 
If you don't mind the pretty sky blue that says "inert/practice" round, you can find everything from 20mm and 50 BMG up to 3 inch 50 rounds at any of the larger military surplus stores.
