I got an MAS 36 for sale.
I got it with the 11 other rifles I picked up a few months ago.
I'll sell it as a peace offering and even put a white flag in it.
I got a few pictures and can take more if you're interested.

Do certified GUN NUTS realy keep count?
Let's see the safe, the closet, under the bed, the garage, the hall closet, the kitchen cupboard... I don't know I'd have to count em to find out!
But never too many or enough!!
Now who here talks to their guns while wiping them down before or after shooting them, or putting them away?

I just got back into guns six months ago. I sold several years ago and wish I still had them. Right now I've got 2 pistols and 1 rifle. In the next couple of months I'll be getting another rifle and shotgun though I plan to keep getting additional guns as fast as I can.
I plan to keep getting additional guns as fast as I can.I don't have that many
due to budgetary constraints...But my best shooting buddy actually wrote a database program to keep track of all of his...He owns something like 35 pistols and 80-85 long guns...Dating back into the 1850s...Since we live 1/2 hour from Doug Turnbull Restorations, many have been restored to perfection, and almost all the rest, with the exception of a couple milsurps and modern .22 plinkers, are highly collectable and in immaculate condition. Oh, and I forgot the 20 or so airguns(also mostly older collectibles) as well...

Let's see, do I count the one I was given 40 years ago that I can't sell because I promised to give it back if I ever tired of it? What about the guns I've given away that I'll get back in a few years or so through inheritances?
What about the NIB forged Caspian officer's frame with frontstrap checkering that's been hiding in the back of the safe for years?
What about the ones on permanent loan?
One uncle was showing off his guns Thanksgiving afternoon (what do the men in your family do when people come visiting?) and asked me which ones I'd like later on because his son doesn't want any of them.
What about the ones I have, but somebody else paid for them? Example: the day after Turkeyday I sold my father on a new S&W revolver and a red dot sight. When it came time to fill out the forms he pushed them in front of me, handed me the pen and said he'd pay for it. As soon as I said "That's not legal", he said "Why not? Your name's on the checking account, too." Sneaky, ain't he?
John...I just don't know how many.
I met a man once who, along with his father, owned 1200 shotguns. That number didn't include his grandmother's collection.
