You know you're addicted to guns when....

When you find out your boss hunts and spend more time talking about what kind of guns has than working.....(true story yesterday) :)
 
..when the first thing you look at when trying on new pants is the belt loops to see if they will line up with where you wear your holster.

Thats funny! I'll elaborate on that!

When you plan your wardrobe around shooting, shooting events, and range time, ie: "these pants and jacket look best with the way I carry my gun" or "with my shotgun".

...

When youre either on here looking at or reading about guns, or youre on the interwebz looking at or reading about guns, or youre at sporting goods/gun stores/gun shows looking at guns, or you get caught by youre MIL in the magazine aisle not looking at the almost pornographic stuff but at gun magazines, or you spend your free time trying to figure out how to get your hands on more guns, you get excited by ANY new information about guns, and sometimes you actually get out for range time to SHOOT your guns!

When at work, people keep coming to you with gun questions.
 
...when you have to create a separate e-mail address specifically for your gun forums 'cause your home e-mail inbox keeps filling up with auto-reply notifications...
 
This could also fall under the title of "You may be a redneck if..."

When you trade a dog for gun.

True story, its how I got my first Mossberg, a 500 12 ga. 20" 8 shot Persuader/Cruiser! A $300 value!

I'm guilty of the camo stockings. And I have a few ornaments that are red 12 guage hulls painted to look like santa that I picked up somewhere a few years ago.
 
...when you leave the house on a week long road trip and you're sad that you had to leave so many of your guns behind...

or

...while on a week long road trip you pack more guns than pairs of socks...
 
I've got one. When any nook and cranny of your house makes you think: "That is a perfect place to hide my _______ gun/rifle. Juuust in case." Now that I read it in print, it also sounds paranoid. I will leave it up to see what you guys think. :D
 
J.L., you own guns you have nothing to be paranoid about. :-D
 
...when you count rounds fired by the movie action hero between reloads and call them out when they've surpassed the gun's mag capacity...

Or catch when the sound effect does not match the gun used in the scene.



I commented the other night on a movie when a girl ran out of a house with a side-by-side but they had the sound effect of a pump being cycled. My girlfriend just stared at me, shook her head rolled her eyes and resumed watching the movie.
 
Haha, nice!

How 'bout how actors always cock the hammer right before they shoot someone, even with a double action pistol. Totally unnecessary other than it gives their monologue a good pause right before the catch phrase.
