Took out most of my long gun collection to take a picture...
I don't like to come off as braggadocious but I love taking out my guns and putting them all together. Took me years to put together this bunch, probably over a decade to get each detail just right.


All semi-auto, some NFA SBR's but all fun.


My obsession lies with guns in movies. So a Die Hard MP5 SBR is there as well as a AR that is modeled after the rifle on the movie poster for Black Hawk Down or matching the era U.S. troops first entered Iraq in 2003.


Now that I think about it the others are just cool factor for me. No optics or gizmos, just irons and oiled up ready to go.



How can you not love the AR lol


And if Putin launches nukes looks like I will be arming my friends and family in the local area in a futile attempt to survive the aftermath.

Nice. I can appreciate someone following through on their obsession regarding movie themes.



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Yeah! I just remembered the MP5K-PDW was from a Mission Impossible scene where Tom Cruise clears a warehouse with one. Great scene!!



Obviously the M1A from Full Metal Jacket and Forrest Gump - although I hate the bathroom scene from FMJ with the Gunny getting shot. D'Onofrio really nailed psycho in that moment. yuck...

My M1a looks just like yours too, only I used a surplus Aug sling that I picked up at aim for 3 bucks. Looks close enough, eventually I’m gonna make mine look like the black hawk down rifle only with a scope instead of aimpoint

I guess I'm pretty much stymied. My favourite movie is 'The Guns of Navarone'.

LOL!!! you're right I am so used to semi-auto's I forgot about it.

Thats technically my wifes. Her grandpas hunting rifle he left to her. Winchester at that time made one hell of a lever gun circa 1950ish. Beautifully milled out steel 30-30.

If the SHTF that will one of two rifles on my short list.

That's a sweet collection Bro!

I recommend to get an HK 91 with a drum in 308 flavor. You can watch it the movie "HEAT" with Robert Deniro and Al Pachino?
...Got to love the LA bank robbery shootout!

Great start, but there's a LOT of movies!

The Die Hard AUG ...

Definitely need a Tommy Gun from Rat Patrol and about all the war shows from the 60's ...

Its so easy to spend other peoples money!

Don't forget the handguns!

Dirty Harry 44 Mag

Terminator AMT Long Slide Hard baller with laser ... and his Rail Gun(?) in the 40 watt range

Matrix Desert Eagle

Where does it stop!!!


If you really want something you'll find a way ...
... if you don't you'll find an excuse.

I'm really not a "kid" anymore ... but I haven't grown up yet either Wink

I always wanted to do a guns of the movie Heat collection!

From memory you would need:
P220 - Deniro's character
HK 91 - Drive in Val Kilmer
M3 S90 - Drive in Tom Sizemore
M16 shorty/Galil/FNC - Bank shoot out
FN FAL - Brinks truck double tap
