When your watching the TV or a film and count the rounds as they're fired.....

I was thinking the other day - I need to re-watch "From Dusk Till Dawn" and count to see how much ammo Seth Gecko carried for his .44! :what:
 
If one of the first things you can think of to tell your wife when she wakes up out of coma is "I swiped your Glock."

And if she asks you "Who told you, you could use my Glock" you KNOW she is too. :D
 
...you can do a tactical reload on your cordless drill's battery pack.

...you slap the bottom of the same battery to ensure it's seated firmly.

...you occasionally spring "what's rule #3?" on your kids, or ask them where the unloaded guns are kept...and they know the answers.
 
...if you're habitually late for work because you wait 2 extra minutes for the clock to read 3:57...you know, for good luck.

My boss is getting irritated since I got my wheelgun....

Haha, good one rumble, I've definatly done that.
 
You know you're a gun guy when your magazine subscription has nothing to do with the written word...
 
Pack of Marlboros at the gas station by my job... $3.57


The cashier always looks at me funny as I giggle when she tells me how much I owe. She probably thinks I'm crazy.

Who cares... she's crazy too... always going on and on about her cats....
 
If you've ever been stabbed in a very sensitive place by a cleaning brush you left in your pocket.

If your wife has ever had to tell you that Hoppe's #9 is not an alluring scent.

If you breathe a sigh of relief when you hear about a mass killing where they just used a knife. (Sue me, I feel that way.)

If you get stopped on your way into a military post for a random inspection, and you have to explain why there is paraphernilia in your trunk from ten different weapons, even if there's no actual ammo or weapons.
 
You might be a gun nut if you and your wife do your Christmas shopping for each other at outdoor marksman.com. (Really. I did that this year.)

If your kids ask to go to the toy store and you think of the nearest gun shop.
 
You might be a gun guy when you point out it should be "firearm" guy.
Or "firearm person".

Becasue the correct term is firearm, not gun.
 
True story

Sitting in a restaurant the item on the menu said boneless pork chop that’s what I wanted to order. When the words came out I said smokeless pork chop.

If your gun collection is valued at more than your 401K retirement plan, you just might be a gun nut.

If you know that the "unique" custom-type bedding block system on the new SIG-Sauer SHR 970 synthetic sport rifle was used by R. Reger of Konigsberg Germany in 1937, and by A. Francotte of Liege Belgium in the early 1930's, you just might be a gun nut.

If you cancel travel plans to go and visit your oldest and closest friends because you just found out there is a gun show that weekend, you just might be a gun nut.

If you ever went grocery shopping with your last 20 dollars till payday and bought 3 gun magazines and some coffee, forgoing the bread, milk and eggs your wife told you to get, you just might be a gun nut.

If the people on a firearms bulletin board know more about you than all 9 of your sisters, you just might be a gun nut.

If seeing Bill Clinton's picture automatically sends you into Condition Red, you just might be a gun nut. (Or possibly just someone who doesn't like lecherous, dirty old men and liars!)

If the last truly sensitive, intimate and emotionally open conversation you had with your wife, was on the merits of the 7mm STW cartridge, you just might be a gun nut.

If you think HCI stands for "Hi Caps Installed" or is a new type of "High Concussion Incendiary" ammo, you just might be a gun nut.

If you go to three different gun shows within a month and you’re excited every single time, you just might be a gun nut.

If you watch La Femme Nikita just to see the weapons, especially the suppressed H&K MP5s, you just might be a gun nut.

If your wife and you argue over who gets to carry the SIG 225 during the summer months, you just might be a gun nut.

you have Colt tattooed on one hand's fingers and 1911 tattooed on the other hand.

ammo importers call you asking if there is anything you are looking for.

you call tell the caliber of a cartridge case just by its sound hitting the floor.

your kids know all the fast food places with in 5 miles of all the local gun shops and ranges.

you named your twins Win and Chester.

when someone mentions a Remington bronze, you ask when they made cannons and it's bore size.

you know the formula of Ed's Red by heart.

you have a pepper popper at the end of your drive.

your doorbell plays a burst of machine-gun fire.

your home owners insurance would be canceled if the underwriter knew just how much ammo/gun powder/primers you have stored.

your gun safe cost more than your newest car.

if you sold your gun stuff, you could buy the top of the line Rolls Royce for cash and get your change in Land Rovers.

the FBI's crime lab calls you for advise.

you go on a month's tour of Europe and American ammo companies have to have lay offs.

your car never gets inside the 2 car garage due to the buckets of wheel weights and lead ingots stored there.

I would enter:

If you are a member of so many gun forums that you spend more than an hour every day checking them out.
 
You go on a month's tour of Europe and American ammo companies have to have lay offs and European companies have to build a new plant to keep up with demand

If you have ever been reading this forum and waited to post so you can be post 22 or 38 or 45

If when you read the last one you automatically, think 22 rim fire 38 SPL 45 ACP
 
I just caught myself doing this one a few days ago:

You subtly examine a dividing wall at Burger King to try to see if it would serve as cover as needed!
 
If you look at a digital clock that's showing a time like 5:56, 2:23, 3:08, etc, and immediately the other designation (metric/english) comes to mind.
 
If the people on a firearms bulletin board know more about you than all 9 of your sisters, you just might be a gun nut.

that might make you a redneck too

how bout this one... you stop to help someone changing a tire... happens to be a cop in his cruser... and you get kinda giddy when you realize that you have an ammo can full of 12ga shells in the trunk... then you realize that you have more ammo than the cop does...
