What started your gun addiction.

For me it was buying my son a .22, we had such a good time shooting it I bought myself a remington 700 .270 and got my hunting license. Then shotguns and then handguns. what was your moment of no turning back?

My Dad, he's to blame. Always had guns around. The term "bite-the-bullet" was taken literally!

When I was a kid my uncle, who's a cop use to take me to the range. I was hooked after that.

About a year and a half a go I decided I wanted to purchase a gun. Bought a Sig p226. Since then I've been hooked, spend about an hour or 2 a day on Calguns and multiple visits to the range.

I've always felt a little naked without a weapon. So I corrected that with G20 and will never look back. Both my parents have been anti-weapon ever since I could remember.

I grew up shooting. Started getting guns as bday/xmas gifts when I was 8 years old.

I first took an interest in guns in 1998. I was 16 and I had just gotten "Metal Gear Solid" for the PlayStation for Christmas. I remember Solid Snake toting an H&K Mark 23 Prototype with a suppressor and LAM. It was the most badass-looking gun I had ever seen and I wanted one. And one of the villains was Revolver Ocelot, who used a pair of Colt SAA's and called it "the finest handgun ever made." I knew that when I got older, I would definitely get a handgun. It only took me 14 years later to get one, lol.

Had guns in the house but never used them, always been very interested and intrigued by guns. bought my first rifle when I turned 19, shortly thereafter read the book "Patriots" and found calguns. Straight up addict ever since, blossomed into more guns, reloading, and best of all a love affair with introducing new people to the wonderful hobby of shooting.

Always wanted a gun so earlier this year I finally bought an M&P9 as a birthday gift for myself. Told myself I only needed 1 gun. Then I said well I have to have a rifle, so I got an AR. Then I said I gotta have an AK, then a 870, and now I'm picking up a 10/22 next week.

I've always had a couple firearms. then caught a burglar and had a knife pulled on me. Bought a HD shotgun that week and its snowballed tremendously since then, especially this last year -18 mos. 4 pistols, 2 ARs and 2 80% lowers, new safe , 1000s... Of rounds.
Expensive hobby.
