We don't have any gun secrets anymore since he reads these forums too.

Not really a "You might be" story, but a decent story from my design class.
Background:
We were tasked with picking out 10 simple, yet successful, robust, simple designs. Then give a 5-10 minute presentation on it.
First off:
One group did one on the "modern bullet" (read: cartridge) and the professor stopped them in the middle of it and said, "Now, what is the name for this device?"
"Uh, a bullet"
"No, the bullet is sitting on top. You're doing a presentation on the modern brass cartridge. You don't want to confuse them."
Second Round:
We did a folding pocket knife, but also went other designs we thought of (some of mine were: Progressive reloading presses, the M1 Garand, the Picatinny Rail mounting systems, and the Civil War Minnie Ball Cartridges). There was a question on "What's a Picatinny rail?"
I just so happened to have KAC's website up on my computer and some spec drawings for the 1913 Rail system to explain it to the people in the class (they seemed a lot more interested in the rail system than a pocket knife).
Was able to pull 3-4 minutes on just explaining the Picatinny Rail and its integration onto many of the rifles currently used for Military, police, and home defense purposes.
you know you're an incurable gun nut when . . .

Here you go Cougar:
If you can turn a design class presentation into a firearms education forum.
If you don't lose credit for going over your time limit
If your professor corrects another group on the bullet vs. cartridge issue.

Noone you knew was surprised by this.

If the High School rifle team coach calls you because she wants to take the rifle team skeet shooting as an end of season party, and you are the only person she knows with enough shotguns.

-if the first thing you grab when you wife kicks you out and wants a divorce is your guns, and you go back the next day for your clothes.
-if you go through a case of soda a week, so you have something to shoot
-if you ask your commander to count your m249 SAW as a field loss.(he said no :()
-if your weekly shooting budget is just under 1/4 your monthly pay.
-if you eat once a day, but your gun does twice

... to open a bottle, you used a rimmed cartridge that was in your pocket from your last range trip.
... You have your ammo inventory committed to memory, but don't have any clear idea how many pairs of socks or underwear you actually own....

If you named a dog after a gun.
The omar here did that: Glock and something else, don't remember. His friend named his Kimber. My next one will have to be Sig. Also, I have a friend whose horse is named Colt. First I thought he was lazy, but then I was lmao when it hit me.

If one of your local gun shops asks you to come work for them, because you've shown more knowledge than their employees.
Note: Does not count if gun shop is Cabela's, Gander Mountain, or Bass Pro Shops.

If you really do think the key to happiness (meaning of life, what have you) really is a warm gun. I know I do.
