my dad has hundreds of guns... of course he owns a sporting goods shop though [:@]

BTM , I think you are jumping the gun. Your buddy's modest colection in no way means he is hopeless.Besides everyone knows you should have a 416 remington.

You're right: This wasn't the right forum for such a question!

Thanks for the replies so far, guys. Keep 'em coming!

RE: Is my buddy a hopeless gun nut?
 

Ive done that before......ordered a gun, and it takes like 3 weeks to come in because Im lefthanded, and by the 2nd week Im already checking out the next gun I will be buying before the first one comes!!!. Ive also went to the gun store with a gift certificate for one gun, and came home with 2 guns.....my thinking, "the first one is essential free, so Im really only buying 1 gun" :D

It gets harder and harder to justify anymore guns in my household so I took up bowhunting to throw the wife off track temporarily.:D. The next thing I NEED is another safe, as I there is NO room for another gun in mine.

Seriously though, there are certain types of guns that you had better buy while the opportunity is there. By this I mean AR15's, M1A's, M1 Garands and any other military centerfire rifle that accepts a detachable box magazine. If I had the money and could afford to shoot it, I would buy a quality .50 BMG. The Barret M82 comes to mind, but they cost over $8000.[&o]

Can you have two many guns? Simply stated NO! Though I have read a quote that stated "Beware of the man with one gun.... Most likely he probably knows how to shoot it.":D However I don't think most of us could have too many.

Your friend is a god. I have had as many as 35 peices in my collection. Not bad for a guy who was a leftist hippy 10 years ago. BTW my hair is still down to my ass. And I did this on a musician's salery. If I were richer, I would buy more. I can list 25 guns off the top of my head that I want. There is always a hole in the collection that needs filled.
