Are you a "super gun owner"

[Leo]

I do not know how anyone thinks they have an accurate count. With all the political anti gun talk for the last 25 or so years, even my rural democrat voting inlaws state that they will not tell anyone in government about their guns. Young, old, city, rural, conservative or moderate liberal, everyone I know at least has a bedroom gun. Those that I know without are some real snowflakes that are too weak willed to do anything but cry if they are out of their comfort zone.

If everyone is super, then no one is super.

This article offends me and I feel like I'm being stereo-typed/profiled or whatever people whine about... I'm going to my safe space now.

You mean your Liberty Fatboy?

So sounds like if you get above 140 you are ok in the eyes of the libs, which makes you "Fabulous!!!" I have to get to work, I so want the acceptance of anti's.

 

[Will317]

i wish I could afford to have 17-140 guns. Lol

 

[iCarry]

Alright, I'm super! Also, as others stated, my wife too asked how many I own

 

[Thor]

Super owners start at 8?!? I can't even remember when I became one...shortly after high school I think...geeze.

And that would be guns I bought, not those purchased for me by family so wouldn't be walking around the woods like an idiot when everyone else was hunting.

 

[Thor]

I thought it was pretty cool to start the day realizing that I'm 'super' at something. Then I realized that just about everyone else here is just as, if not more 'super' than I am. Back to being average I guess...

Well, average in a super sort of way...

Sometimes you have to improvise...

And it's not just the cost. At some point a person has to think of storage. Safe room perhaps? The kind with firearms in it.

Nah, lots of drawers and closets around the house when I run out of safe room. The real cost becomes ammo...

It only took a week for the study's big lie (3% own 50%) to become fact. I've seen two news stories this weekend that cite this "fact".

 

[cerebus85]

I read the article and I do qualify as one of these super gun owners. Odd though I don't feel super at all? I'm curious how many gun owners didn't tell the extent of their ownership though?

I mean guns are like anything else really you just slowly acquire them till one day you're like "man that's a lot of guns, I've never even shot that one!"

 

[Thor]

Well, I HAD a lot of guns before the boating accident....

 

[femurphy77]

Sadly a boating accident took me from "SUPER GUN OWNER" to ordinary.

 

[BE Mike]

How many gun owners would tell some stranger that they own any, even if the survey was supposedly anonymous? In my observations, I see new gun owners all the time, including members of my extended family. This is more liberal false propaganda IMHO.

This "super gun owner" silliness reminds me of the clintonista admin scheming to enact an "arsenal tax" on anyone who owned a combination of more than 10 guns and/or magazines, or more than 1000rnds of ammo.

over 1k rounds? That's just starting into being frugal, not even a "bulk" discount. plus you need to fill up before you run out. not to mention if you have multiple calibers.

over 10 mags? per gun, more like it. that's just being smart.

Next month will be the 1st anniversary of my first gun purchase and I'm already thinking along these lines...you guys are a bad (good?) influence. Then again it doesn't take much since I'm also one of those people that is rationing to only 5 legal and fully functioning vehicles for 2 drivers.
