How to know that your husband is a gun nut:

1. You buy a gun that's just like that other gun you have except the barrel is 1/2" shorter (longer).

2. You ever bought ammo/reloading dies in a caliber for which you have no gun, because you thought some day you MIGHT get a gun in that caliber

3. You ever had to explain "It's not the SAME gun, it's a different VARIANT

4. You take out your ammo and arrange different rounds in a pretty little row. And if you ask your daughter to look at it, so you can explain stopping power to her.

5. Your guns are cleaner than your home

6. Four local gun shops know you by name

7. You can wallpaper your house with old issues of Shotgun News, Gun List, Guns & Ammo, etc.

8. You bought 7 or more AK-47's just so you could have different ones from different countries (Bulgarian, Romanian, Russian, Yugoslavian, Egyptian, Chinese, etc.)

9. You own enough guns to arm everyone on your block

10. If "Miller Time" means plinking at beer cans.

11. You shout out gun names makes and calibers during every movie you go and see.

12. You watch old WWII movies and can identify and look at all the rifles and handguns but can't remember who starred in the movie or what it was about.

13. Your car has a bumper sticker that reads "My wife - yes, my car - maybe, my gun - NEVER!"

14. When your birthday roles around, your significant other calls your gunsmith to find out what to get you and where to get it.

15. You've ever turned down sex with your wife just to go shooting instead or read the gun boards. :lol2:

i'm horrible about #11. my wife won't watch action movies with me anymore. not so much the models/calibers thing, but any time i see a mistake it just drives me nuts. I'm the guy in the back of the theater shouting, "Safety's on, dumbass!" and "HEY! That was ELEVEN rounds!"

here is what drives me nuts :1087:
watching cops and they pick up a a gun and miss identify it (they pick up a SKS) "this is a AK47 machine gun and can shoot 50 bullets at one time" or they pick up a pistol "this is a automatic pistol it is preferred weapon of a gangbanger" and we are talking about a high point not a skorpion :cuss:
they need to stop trying to hype it up so much and get the facts straight quite trying to scare the crap out of the public and inform them correctly

i have run into quite a few cops that really don't know the difference, my father was a highway patrolman and a sargent on a city force for over 20 years so i grew up in the law enforcement comunity.

16. You walk into a store where the owner is partnered with an "other" green beret and scare the customers away by talking about an m3 with the origional night scope....................(ya, yesterday afternoon. I can't wait to see it!)

..of a # of those. My fave is:

"You take out your ammo and arrange different rounds in a pretty little row. And if you ask your daughter to look at it, so you can explain stopping power to her."

GUILTY! Hel, me daughter has her own colection of spent shells in all colors and sizes! Right next to her seashell and rock collection, just above the barbie (TM) box.:rockon:

#17. You know more than most ATF lab techs about import laws, compliance, and FFL transfers.
