The gun shop right down the road from me is owned and operated entirely by an old high school friends parents (and him and his sisters, etc) does that count?

Wake up not feeling well. :eek6 The heart isn't feeling so hot. You go to the E.R. because your are thinking it is a heart attack. While you are laying there hooked to monitors and and getting an EKG, you are actually worried that this is going to mess up your plans of going to the range today.

They said I was have palpitations and I will be ok. Look out range here I come! :anamatedbanana
Wow, man, you have a pretty chipper attitude. That would scare me to half to death. Enh, maybe you're just tougher. Glad you can do the banana dance now. :)

When your gun collection is bigger than your wife's shoe collection.
When your pull out your pictures on your phone and you show pictures of your guns instead of your family. Guilty

maybe when you match your ear rings to your pistol grips?
Or match the holster to the belt and/or shoes, even if no one is going to see it?

on a different scale....

When you get tattoos of your gun names/models, but not your kids or wife/husband.

I agonized over the right color for my VM2 IWB holster because I really like the look of the tan, but I don't have any belts or shoes that color (all of mine are a darker brown). All this despite the fact that I never intend to wear that holster in a "tucked" fasion and no one will ever see any part of it.
