When you say I love you, it's usually to a gun... :D

I'm not addicted as I was able to wait until 1:45 am local time to check for new forum posts OB ? :D

BTW.... Anyone need a kidney ? I have a spare that I would consider trading for the right gun, also willing to trade my left nut if anyone needs one ?... :unknown:

I'm not addicted though.... ;) . :lol:

:drinks:


A kidney gun ?????????????
I always thought it was commonly called a "leg of mutton gun" :lol:

And,,,,, I should be able to get at least 2 more guns,,,,,, I could trade both left AND right nut as they're not needed anymore.

I frequent the forum several times a day,,,, and sometimes at odd times throughout the night.
BUT I'M NOT ADDICTED EITHER.

When you're stressed about keeping guns in gunsocks to protect against bumps in safe vs no socks because that just looks badass that way.

A friend told me one symptom is when you're watching a corny old western with your favorite lever gun in your hands.

Years ago I had to repeatedly change a door code. Six or so changes in a row were combinations of calibers, quickly found out who the other shooters were :thumbsup:

When you've calculated how many guns you need to in order to do something gun related EVERY evening but not handle the same gun twice in a fortnight.

One of my daughters mobile ends with 308
Thats what telstra provided with no prompting.

I bought a rifle from a bloke a number of years back, and every bit of his ph # was related to caliber/s
Can't remember what it was, but he did confess to requesting that particular sequence of digits.

So I guess he MUST have been "addicted" :lol:

The sign of an advanced addiction is looking at gun safes thinking they're all inadequate then checking out what is needed for a walk in gun vault.

...when you won't spend $200 to replace your 10 year old piece of s#%t whipper snipper, but you'll happily spend a grand on a gun that you only just realised that you really, really need.

I don't get it. Why do you need a whipper snipper? Just shoot each blade of grass individually.
