I’m pretty much consumed with buying guns. Some I haven’t even fired. Pistol, automatics, rifles, shotguns. I like them all.

Seems familiar.

You're not really an addict unless you have several copies of each... Big Grin

It’s only an addiction if you go to meetings and have first name friends.

I was going to say that every gun I've bought I've shot... but then I realized I have two I have not... A Sig p250 in .380 caliber I bought from a fellow member here a few months ago as well as the P230 I bought here at auction a couple years ago... that is my one safe queen...

As for the copies of guns comment... I've always thought that if you found a gun that you really liked then you should own more than one... actually more than three or four... for me it started with Ruger P95s and then went to Sig P226s and Sig P239s....

I have to tell you- coming out with something like this on your second post makes you look like a troll. You want to tell us about your gun-buying OCD?

I definitely have a problem. I've bought 8 used, classic P SIGs since Jan 1. I'll pick up 2 nice, but used, P6s this week. I went to get them today, but they were closed.

Wow! That’s pretty low from this forum that a new member has defend his legitimacy after his second post. Really guys? We’ll! Here’s my last few purchases-Springfield Waypoint 2020 6.5 PRC, Howa Carbon Stalker 7-08. Sig Cross 308. I probably own 40 firearms. The reason I’m on this forum is to find out the trick to folding the stock on the my Sig Cross. But I guess there’s other forums. Y

I probably won’t hear anything else from this guy. He’s probably googling the word legitimacy right now.

You come in here on your second post and ask if anyone else here has a mental condition regarding firearms and when this remark is called out, you express surprise and indignation, rather than trying to see the issue at hand. This is also characteristic of trolling.

You're going to tell me that you can't see my point? If that remark had come from a member who has been here a while and has a few posts, it would be different.

You've got 'troll' written all over you.

Give me a break! I’m asking people if they have a mental health condition? That’s your response? You guys that responded to my post, please get help.

No, you're asking them if they have a "gun-buying addiction"

Okay I’m going to let the die. The shows over fellas. I should ask though before I get kicked off as a troll, what is the secret to folding that Cross stock?

You're not getting kicked off. I had suspicions. It's my job to see who gets in here.

You want to stay, you're welcome to stay.

Well, now that doesn't make me feel any better about myself. I have doubles of about everything from a ruger mkiii to glock 17. And a baker's dozen 1911s from mild to not quite wild (no comped open-class guns). Shit... I guess maybe I do have a problem. My safe is too small

4 fingers wrapped around the underside of the stock.
thumb on the little round button looking thing.
push down with thumb.
pull up with other fingers.
rotate counter clockwise while doing so
