I usually don't like posting personal stuff on the internet, but should anyone get some bright ideas and try to come "meet" me at my house, the last thing they'll see is the barrel of my SP101. (Child molesters, take note)

Wow...Somehow I've never looked at this thread until now.
I'm a 31 year old computer geek originally from Minnesota, now living in Texas. I guess that makes me a Texasotan. I have a wonderful girlfriend.
My collection has been shrinking as of late, but I still have quite a few.
I also pay to host a subpar website that I never update.

Definately not an unlimited budget(would be nice, though). Divorced, both kids grown, data communications field, finally have some more funds to use for things other than bills and school expenses for them.
And a lot of mil-surp firearms are quite reasonable in price, especially when you have a C&R.

Well ok,
Age: 36 6'0” 238 lbs. A little soft in the middle but I can still hump it 10-20 miles with a full pack and rifle for my back country hunts.
Occupation: Hardened Electronics Test Engineer(Semi Retired)/Rancher
I put vital electronics systems through the wringer until they fail and then try to measure if the failures are with in tolerance and if not I have to figure out why. In other words I get paid to smash things up and it is Fun.
Marital Status: Two Ex-wives (Ovaries cause Insanity)
Kids: None that I know Of.
Hobbies: Hunting and Shooting both pistol and long range rifle.
Misc about me: I am well paid and have all of the money I want to spend however I want and all the things I want are my home, ranch, guns, close friends, and my dogs. What more can a man need or want?

~5' 4", ~185lbs. out-the-door
Occupation: between-institutions History major, already planning for and writing on a Masters in WWII Studies
Full-house Asperger's syndrome , IQ of 156 (last estimate, ~3 years ago)
"Texas rattlesnake hatched in exile"
Washington CPL-holder, filling out paperwork for Florida nonresident

" (seeking): Matched left-right pair of Randall-type 1911s (will build my own if necessary)
->Colt 1903 .32ACP or 1908 .380
->COP .357 4-shot derringer
->Dead-on replicas of Patton's revolvers
->IF '86 ban/ WA NFA ban are ever gone: As many Thompsons as I can lay hands on
Not a hunter, but hardcore pistolero, thinking about IDPA and IPSC (my standard course of fire is 300 rounds per session on silhouette targets, using aggressive full-body "power" stances, e.g. LFI Stressfire)
Single and hating every minute of it, straight, non-hoplophiles need not apply
Personality: Under reconstruction, but very similar to that of Douglas MacArthur

Oh, this thread's gonna make me give the game away.
I'm a 21 year old computer programmer. I work at a little engineering company here in Coatesville doing factory automation and control.
Abruptly single again, looking to move to this immediate area from the Corporate Oligarchy of Delaware. Hoping I'll work up enough money between the rent and the bills to go to school at some point, maybe in West Chester, but that doesn't look like it's happening at any point in this lifetime.
So I envy all you guys and your seemingly infinite resources to buy ammo and firearms. Not to mention how you manage to find wives and girlfriends who aren't as vehemently anti-gun as just about everybody I've ever met!
Lucky stiffs.

For what it's worth.............
Soon to be 58, I run a small marketing group for a niche lender. I travel a lot domestically, with my wife of 35 years along when the destinations are nice. Have two grown sons. Play a lot of golf - so much so we bought a vacation place on a course near Myrtle Beach, SC and try to get down once a month. We took up pistol shooting as a fun thing to do when we don't golf. I've gotten the bug really bad. So many guns, so little time....can only buy one a month in VA. Maybe I should get a SC drivers license...

Long thread...
37yo grey headed white fat-man. Happily married, 4 beautiful daughters ranging from 10 to 18. I'm a software engineer, specializing in industrial automation systems.
I own a few guns, not many compared to many here. My 'other' hobby is marine reef aquaria, believe me, shooting is the cheaper of the two

47 yo general contractor.
married 20 years this Dec.,
2 kids
I budget every month a sum for fun. That covers MY toys, and the care an feeding of my toys. The wife has all that remains. It works better that way.
I have no freaking Idea how many I have, The last data sheet print out ran too many pages. I RARELY if ever buy new, but I buy an awful lot of used and distressed items, a lot a police trade ins, either from the evidence room or the arms locker. I fix what I can, cannabalize what I can not, and try to make some sense of what is left.
My wife has deemed my hobbys anoying but she puts up with them. She also carries daily.
