Now I'm The Official Office Gun Nut

[davemata]

hahahaha. Well, I work in Somerville, he lives in Boston, and our office is at Faneuil. The bosses are not domestic though.

Better watch out for the "see something, say something" crowd. Do you have more than 2 weeks worth of food?

I am the office gun nut. I invite coworkers to the range regularly, and we always have fun.

If I become a gun acorn can I get federal funding?

 

[davemata]

I'd like some gov funding to prep the house a little better.

I think I need more than 1k rounds of 9mm.

 

[Ropke Nine]

I got a pen like this from the NRA. 2 .308 shells liked end to end.

 

[davemata]

I'd dig it if it didn't have a logo on it.

 

[Billsail]

Nobody ever knew I was a gun afficianado at work.

 

[Jose]

was told by our lawyer today that I'm just looking to find someone to shoot.

Just look him straight in the eye and tell him that you don't need to keep looking.

Got this pen for Christmas from the wife and since bringing to the office, I get comments, wary looks, and a new respect (OK, I may be imagining that last one)
I got the Antler top one. Looks nice and a nice pen too. One way to carry concealed.

that pen is awesome, I wish my girlfriend got me things like that, instead I get shirts that I dont like .

Everyone at my old job knew that I had guns, so I would joke and say: "the voices in my head told me to clean my guns last night..."

Now, at my new job, I go to the range with my boss (also a NES member )

 

[davemata]

I like that. hah.

 

[Mr_Irritating]

I'm fortunate to be surrounded by gun enthusiasts at work.

 

[C-pher]

It's easy to not worry when the company that owns you also owns a ton of gun companies as well.

 

[George D]

It's not the end of the world to let people know you own guns. You become the first person they ask when they find an old gun they need to get rid of.

At which point you can rat them out to the fuzz...

Hell yeah, up to $1,000 in NJ!
I picked up the following from being " a guy that has guns and stuff" for short money.
S&W model 60 .38spl , S&W K17 .22, Browning A5 12 ga, Winchester model 70 .22, Glock 19 9mm, Savage 12ga, Czech K98 Mauser, Stevens .22 bolt action.

As much as I literally dgaf about what people think, I try not to encourage people to find reasons to give me a hard time at the workplace or anywhere else. In other words I don't advertise that I'm a gun owner/carrier. Here's where some you might get jealous: I recently changed positions at my company and work from home unless I'm traveling (occasionally & a lot less than before). My S&W Airlite .357 is on the desk next to my keyboard

Me too! When not visiting customers I'm in my home office with the 1911 on my hip.

 

[ARV]

I wear that crown too at my work

Me too!
All of the conversations I have here start in these ways:

• You like them too?! Thats awsome I have....
• What kind of gun should I....
• Buy any new ones latley?
• Can you come to the gun shop with me...
• Ordering ammo, want to go in on it?
• Lets go shooting!
• Im not sure whats wrong with it, but can you fix it?

 

[soloman02]

Tell them all that if they "borrow" it that they become instant felons. That should keep their hands off it.

And you can use that to point out how utterly retarded the laws are in MA and maybe convince them to not vote for the idiots on Beacon Hill.

 

[Patriot0717]

If your the guy that doesn't have a firearm at my work your considered the nut.

To paraphrase one of my favorite TV personalities:

Why do you have a gun?

Why don't you have a gun?

 

[calsdad]

This is actually a perfect example of how utterly retarded MA law is.

The ad says that the pen was made from a real 30.06 rifle shell - so what if it wasn't - and the Co. was just taking pieces of brass - sticking them in a lathe - turning it into THE SHAPE OF a rifle cartridge - and then sticking pen guts in it?

Would you still need a license to own it?

Does anybody even see the level of retardation going on here? Needing a license to own a piece of metal made into a particular shape?

"That ain't nothing, I'm wearing my slippers, drinking an irish coffee and wearing my beretta with three extra loaded mags on the desk, my dog asleep, and porn on the tube.

The perks of a home office. ."




And a trusy old catchers sock you've had since the 4th grade, next to your 3 mags. An image that gets burned into ones frontal lobe, that perpetualy haunts you till the day you die . Why the ever living F do I do this to my self, I must learn to balance brain to keyboard function better.

 

[Emoto]

I never mention guns at work, or religion or politics for that matter. Nobody I work with has any idea that I have any interest in them, much less own or shoot any, nevermind have thousands of rounds of ammo and an "arsenal". My sole purpose at work is to extract $ from my employer in exchange for my labor. My office is small and has many foreigners and I have no interest in finding out if anyone would react poorly and create an "HR incident."

On the other hand, I spent a couple of weeks on a project at our north american hq in Houston some time back, and one of the first things the guy I reported to down there did was to grill me to find out if I was some kind of yankee liberal gun hater or not. He was delighted by my views on the subject, and we got along great.

Hah! That's gross man. You win an internet.

Coworker in Australia just bought a farm... apparently now he's considered a large land owner, and is eligible to own a rifle.

How odd, how do you go from penal colony to having to buy a lot of land to have a gun?

 

[Leadfarmer]

You can have a safe full of guns, ammo stacked floor to ceiling, go shooting with your freinds every chance you get, read every gun mag, read the gun forums, watch Ted Nugent "Spirit of the Wild" with a Mad Bomber hat on, etc.... but bring a pen that looks like a bullet to work and NOW you are a "gun nut."

If they only new the rest of it...
