My name is Calsdad - and I have a problem

[calsdad]

I want to stand up before all of you and admit I have a problem. I thought I could control it. I thought I was over it - but it seems to be getting the better of me.

I know I shouldn't be around people who encourage my addiction - but I keep doing it.

On Saturday I went to a gun show. I knew I shouldn't , I thought it would be ok. But now I can't get this out of my head.

Earlier this year I bought a bigger safe because I had filled up the smaller one I had and was pretty sure I had all the guns I would ever need. I had some .308's, I had some in .223, I had Garands, m1 carbines, an SKS, an AK, and an AR - what else could I want? I thought to myself: I am pretty much done. I don't really need any more guns.

But then I went to the gun show in Manchester and started walking around. Rileys had an FN49 on their table . Do want. State Line from Plaistow had one of the new Kel-Tec bullpup .308's - Do want. I saw cans of .50 cal ammo - I saw Barrett rifles. Do want. One of my friends got a really good deal on one of those new Ruger SR-556's - Now I also Do Want. The MG42 on the stand was uber cool. Do want. Saw an Daewoo DR-200 sitting on the table at one vendor and started thinking: I should get one of these. Then I remembered I have one coming already. The Johnson rifle was calling to me - when I got home I went right to google and gunbroker and started looking up how much they go for.

Lately I have been spending lots of time researching stuff like FN FNC's, and Beretta AR-70's - and MG34 kits.

Now I know I have a problem. I need a sponsor. I need somebody who can help me with my addiction.


So.........







Is there anybody out there who wants to be my sponsor? I need somebody with a lot of money.




What?

You thought I wanted to kick the gun buying habit?

[calsdad]

Actually a Sugar Momma would be much preferable.

 

[HTRN]

I was hoping that you would adopt me.

 

[bob68]

i think to be correct that should be a sugar momma LOL

 

[bob68]

i got beat out by that split second of mindful thinking on the subject lol

 

[red87930]

Thank goodness for MA Gun Laws. So many of my DO Wants are Can't Haves. Think of the savings. I know many things can be had it is just a matter of finding them here and being willing to pay.

And just so I don't gat slammed this is sarcasm

Actually a Sugar Momma would be much preferable.

But you'll take what you can get?

 

[fencer]

Sounds like your gonna need a bigger safe too. Maybe an addition to the house. A special room.... the Armory. You're screwed!

 

[gunner30]

I love your addiction and am glad I've been able to help encourage it )

 

[T3andme]

ooh! a Barrett? I should have gone...but our new safe is full and I have two builds I am starting..
mmm Barrett...

What was your question again?

 

[calsdad]

Last night I spent a couple of hours on ar15.com going thru a LONG thread on building a gun room.

 

[Hanwei]

Wait... you say you have a problem... but you didn't even buy anything.

 

[GaryO]

Are you getting rid of the small safe?

 

[Jose]

Buy less and shoot more.

 

[Blitz1]

I think it's about time for an intervention, we'll start by you giving all your guns to me. It's the only way.

 

[richc]

Wait... you say you have a problem... but you didn't even buy anything.

You're known in the business as an ENABLER!

 

[exo]

You know, if you run out of room you can store them in my safe. Heck I'll even let you store some ammo in there too =) ... please? pretty please? I'll even take them for "walks" I promise!

 

[Hanwei]

You're known in the business as an ENABLER!

I call it like I see it

LMAO !! You are gone. My wife would have me living in that gun room. Did the plans for the gunroom include a bed?! A futon?

 

[richc]

Calsdad,

You need one of these:

It will solve all our storage problems, and give you a place to live when your wife kicks your ass out!

I think I have seen some pics of your collection somewhere.

 

[FalArAk]

If you get that FN49,I will help you shoot the piss out of it.

I do want as well.

 

[MassMark]

Ditto, but get the Johnson Rifle as well...I have a lot of access to 30-o6 and a disdain for people who keep them as safe queens. Those guns are just superb...

 

[kingson]

You don't have a problem yet. You will have one when you have to get your own FFL so you can buy and sell guns to support your gun habbit.

 

[flintoid]

that's a good idea. Pesonal experience, perhaps?

 

[kingson]

Pesonal experience, perhaps?

Yes it is

 

[kristo]

the new Kel-Tec bullpup .308's - Do want

 

[center442]

Calsdad, I had just finished looking at another thread you started, " Pics of ATF Gun Room," and then I saw the title of this thread.

My first thought was "Holy $hit, he just realized those were from HIS gun Room and not the ATF!"
