dhunt91 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 When You and your girlfriend/going to be wife talk about building a house she tells you that you can have a whole basement or gun room if she gets a big bathroom with room for 2 in everything. when you havent moved out yet (college kids) and your room doubles as a bedroom, reloading room, and computer room in one place.

nitrohuck Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) when you havent moved out yet (college kids) and your room doubles as a bedroom, reloading room, and computer room in one place. hahah, I am most certainly guilty of that! My mom sorta flipped her lid when she realized what I was doing. College years are through, and now I have a house with a garage that has never seen a car oh wait, might as well add that: when your two car garage has never seen a single car parked inside it, yet has seen over 10k rounds made within its walls (so far).

benos Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 When you are deciding on which apartment to buy and the fact that one is number 308 is a significant deciding factor In movies, I always notice house or apartment numbers that are calibers.

I ended up buying the one numbered 308 so it worked out perfectly lol I picked a Google Voice ph# based 100% on the fact that it is 3 calibers. Edited September 17, 2014 by jhgtyre to add that HAVING a google voice number makes you a whole other kind of nerd beyond just being a shooting nerd.

Lifeislarge Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 So I'm watching the Panthers Steelers game and the commentators are discussing how when Cam Newton misses, he usually misses high. First thought is "he's not seeing his front sight settle". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry White Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 You know you are a old shooter when you spend hours on auction sites looking for stuff you once had so you can buy it back for 3 or 4 times what you sold it for years ago.------------------Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Siggy: After shoulder reconstruction surgery, you shoot and RO 3 SASS Matches while still in the sling and brace. BTW, all long guns were shot from the hip until the surgeon cleared me.

dmcclary Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Twenty-one years ago my wife and i bought our first home. We had an alarm system installed. The keypad had the word Magnum printed on it. I believe that was the model of keypad. My wife let me pick the three digit code. A friend of hers came to visit. She looked at the keypad and asked my wife who picked the code. My wife admitted that I had. The friend immediately guessed the code. Yes, it was 357!

Sig Lady- first hip replacement surgery? I expected that of me, but not of you. I guess I thought that I was the only one getting more "seasoned".

SiG Lady Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Ha, I'm beyond "seasoned." Then there was the second hip replacement--then the shoulder replacement. Moreover, when they cremate me they'll be able to sell the leftover parts for metal salvage and my heirs will get a rebate on the cost of cremation. Maybe.
