Over a period of about two years I handed out about 300 pocket constitutions that I bought.

Stating when I presented them, "Copyright 1788, all rights preserved."

I also advised giftees that they should study it as they would, at some time in the future, be tested on the contents.

You might be a gun nut if you read that and started going through a junk box looking for an old picatinny rail.

You might be a gun nut if you know what a picatinny rail is.

I bought a brick of 1,000 22LR rounds before I bought my 22LR MP5.

Randy, I've never done that, but I can't tell you how many times I thought it. LoL.

If you have at least 1 gun loaded and hidden in every room of the house. Bonus credit if there is one inside the toilet water tank, the refrigerator or freezer. You're my new hero if its all 3.

HAHAHAHAHA.....

Nearly every room. For sure every door, & most rooms. I've often thought while in the shower...... "this is the only room in the house unarmed" :hysterical:

How about...... extra mags, or speed loaders in every vehicle, & multiple rooms :whistle:

LOL! Nice! I usually carry a pistol into the bathroom with me when I shower and just put it under my towel.

Here's a few of mine...

... if you've ever had more than 3 calibers of ammo for guns you *don't* own, because you plan on owning them...
... if your wife gets another UPS delivery with your name on it and you get the "What gun is that for?" question...
... if you've used wooden crates of 7.62x54R as an end table.
... if you've got more than two firearms disassembled and you'll get to them "at some point".
... if the reason "at some point" was because you've built two other firearms since you've disassembled the previous firearms.
... if you've ever found a firearm in a safe and said "I wonder when I bought this one...?"
... if you've found a firearm in a safe and said "I *knew* I had one of those..."
... if you've researched the fire departments code for how much smokeless powder one can store, and how you're going to do it.
... if you've got at least one firearm that's never had a factory round of ammo through it.

I'm sure I can think of a few more... :whistle:

Here is the MAIN "Gun Nut" listing:

"You cannot watch a movie without identifying each weapon, whether it's being used correctly, reloaded correctly, and more important if it's not? You cannot finish the movie. Because it disturbs you too much."

Too funny!

My wife yells at me all the time for running through the weapons list of the action films. I'll say something like "That's complete crap! That gun can't do that! Its only an <X>!". She say "Will you stop! Its just a movie. Calm down!". Hahaha
