you are TRULY a gun nut if you value this right over all other things. Or if you worry about this administration's actions. Or if you worry about having to register your weapon. Or if you have ANY thoughts about stopping the government with your guns. Or if you carry in a notoriously safe area. Or if you ever entertain thoughts of saving others with your weapon(beyond the occasional daydream). Or if you react to the most recent school shooting by racing to the gun store.

There are many reasons to have a gun. Collecting classic guns is fine. Collecting an arsenal is strange.
