.. there are more concealed handguns in attendance at your wedding than a Mafia funeral. Or, your wife suggests changing the home phone to 1 800 GUN-INFO.

You have a repetitive stress injury from pulling the handle on your press.

You measure the spices on your steak in grains.

When your doctor mentions lead levels, and you tell him you're OK. 15,000 at home and 15,000 more bullets on order.

You measure the boot space on a car by how much 22lr ammunition or dead deer you can fit in it.
So many guns, so little time.

You buy a new travel trailer and have not taken it on any trips that do not involve shooting a match.

Ammo and gun storage is more important in said trailer than a TV or AC.

You also have enough ammo in it at all times to shoot at least one match for each shooting sport that you do.

I do know that 10 Remington 597, in factory shipping cartons, do not fit in the trunk of a Chrysler 300C with factory subwoofer. But will sit nicely across the back seat with room to spare.
So many guns, so little time.

My last two cars were purchased because my bullseye pistol box would fit in the trunk. I carried a tape measure around with me and didn't consider most because the trunks weren't tall enough.

You added another 10 miles to your commute so you could build your own range.

If your buddy has a range in his back yard and you bitch about the walk to it.

If the price of your steel targets would buy a decent car.

If your steel targets would outweigh that car.

You know how long it will take you to clear a ppr but cant remember where you went to eat last night.

If you look at the safe room in your house and say why can't my gunsafe be that big.

If you converted your saferoom into your gun safe.

If you've calculated berm highth for the range in your yard. Then bought a ppr and had to re do the math.

If your first instinct when you talk with a cop is to invite them to shoot your duelingtree for cash.

If you've run that source of income dry because no local cops will shoot against you.

If you've thought about doing pistol instruction but realized it would cut into your range time.

You set up practice stages on Sunday...in December...in the snow...

You follow law enforcement firearms qualification dates.... And go watch them shoot all day... Just so you can pick free brass after.

You can shoot the wings off the flies :)

You might be a shooter if your wife looks up and says " so how many do you own now?" And your response is not enough

You might be a shooter if your family is always asking " why do you need any more guns" and your answer is I don't have a gun for that division.

You might be a shooter if you yell at the tv " that not how to old a gun" every time you see one.

You might be a shooter if all your friends end up buying the gun you recommend after talking to them about it.

You might be a shooter if your thumb is callused from loading rounds into the mag

You ARE a shooter if you correct people that call magazines a clip.

You might be a shooter if you cringe every time you hear some one dry fire a rim fire revolver

Sparta never forgot its claims on being the "defender of Hellenism" and its Laconic wit. An anecdote has it that when Philip II sent a message to Sparta saying "If I enter Laconia, I will raze Sparta", the Spartans responded with the single, terse reply: "If."[30
