I'm not to that point yet, but I feel like it's one of those hobbies that might make me sell all my furniture and live like a squatter.

 

Look at it this way. I bought a Vector Arms AK47 exactly one year ago, and since then, retail on this rifle has raised a couple hundred dollars. The closer and closer we get to a possible ban, the more the prices will increase. If you buy weapons that have the potential to get banned (ie "Assault" weapons), you could sell them for a huge profit once the ban hits.

That's one way to justify spending money on guns, I know I sure use it

 

Went to the range today, overall I like my gun, I'm glad I got bolt-action to slow my shots down, it's too easy to rip through ammo otherwise! The vids will look better if you select high quality.

Here's a video of my brother firing it, sounds pretty puny huh?

And because I know that just stole 20 seconds of your time if you watched that, the guy next to us had a pretty cool AR:

Does he normally wear his camo to the shooting range?

 

This is Kentucky, the shooting range is just about the most appropriate place you'll see camo besides while actually hunting.

 

Damn, I bought a Ruger 10/22 at Walmart back in the day for like $100. .22's are great, though. Nothing like buying 500 rounds for $18.
