| Showing some of my collection. Well here is some of my rifles and shotguns. Frankly I got tired of lugging them out. And I ran out of room so have about 30 more not in the pic. But its a start. German Turkish Chile Argentine Swede Mausers are in front of the fireplace. Russian Finnish Mosins lower left on the pit group. US lower right Carbines laying between. Italian Carcanos upper middle. Jap Arisakas upper right. Shotguns upper left. British Indian Enfields lower middle. French MAS upper far left. And a little of everything else here and there. Everyone else is posting pics so thought I would too. My goal is to get one of every major long gun of WWII.

| My X used to have that many purses. That many pairs of shoes too. Man, that's quite a collection! I don't know much about the WW1 rifles but how many different types of ammo do you have to have to shoot all of them?

| Lots of ammo. Most are WWII not WWI. But some were used in both wars.

| That video is just sad. I cant believe someone would hand a shotgun to another person and not tell them how to stand how to hold it and what not to do. That is a classic example of who should not be allowed to use firearms. Too bad she didnt just shoot the nimrod holding the camera who obivously was the idiot who gave her the shotgun. Im all for safety. In the 6 years I worked as a range officer I did not have one accident. This is just such a stupid video. Makes me angry just to watch it.

| Well, she can still guard my "stuff" if she wants. You could always leave the 12ga unloaded and figure on her being a serious distraction at least, as the dogs attack the intruder! Come on Capt'n work with me a little here...lol. |
