what C&R Profile fits you most

[1-M-42]

Mostly a two but, with only a couple of exceptions, I shoot them all a lot. I rotate through different rifles every month in our Vintage Silhouette match. The only rifles I don't shoot are my 1941 Johnson because of its value and my Arisaka because its a wreck

[emcon5]

Mostly 2.

I shoot some more than others, but I shoot everything.

[paratroop]

2, 5, and 7. I like them all, I want one of each, but I also feel bad when I let one sit in the safe for too long.

[Grendl]

No. 2 except for my G43 and a C96. I can't bring myself to spring for Apfeltor's shooters kit or a Broomcloset/Redman inspection, so haven't shot either. Everything else gets shot. No safe queens allowed.

I don't quite see my profile. Profile 6 is generally where I fall - I'm a collector that concentrates on 1 or 2 models (in my case 1911s and early automatics) and wants one of every variant. However, like profile #1 I also care about the details of collectability, however I want the highest condition example possible.

Hmm I guess so far i'm the only 3
I think they are neat old guns and am not that interested in the specific rarity at all. I feel they were meant to be shot and shot a lot.
so I intend to do just that.

I'm for 6, since I like mausers and sks and try to stay with those and collect variants, shooting part is important although some of them will end up on the wall

I guess I would have to be a #8 and#9

8. a collector who buys everything they see that they don't have and can hide from the wife. shoots them all if safe and ammo is available but some more than others depending on cost and fun factor.

9, collector who already has more than he will ever need but still buys and hunts for anything new. Must admit he has a problem.

I am a #2 and #5 guy.

I can't figure it out myself.

Some rifles I would not mind having more than one of. Others I am good with one. I do prefer variety, but also like "deals" as I see them. I care about accuracy AND rarity and collect-ability, and wear, but I won't buy anything I can't or won't shoot.

I guess I'm not 5&6, but accuracy and condition and rarity etc are all important to me.

Okay, 8 and 9 better describe me :-)

Number 2. One thing I try to do is pick out a rifle for range time and then also bring my .22lr. I split the time to save a little bit on ammo.

8) Someone who knows that a firearm doesn't need to be a rifle to be a C&R

9) Someone who knows it doesn't need to be military surplus to be C&R

10) Someone who knows that it's hard to find the craftsmanship that older guns seem to have

Shouldn't this be a poll?

And a category for "I shoot everything I own".
