Ahhhhhhhhh. I feel better now. Nothing like a little relaxing trip through the gun room.

from this frequent reader (is lurker what you call it?) /first time poster... H.O.L.Y.C.R.A.P. That is simply amazing. What year did you win the lotto? Seriously though excellent site. I try to hit your site at least once a day.

I hope that empty 2 liter of coke (standard issue I presume) in the back there is fully secured soldier. It's all fun and games until someone leaves an unsecured soft drink bottle laying around where unsuspecting children could find it.

Does that stapler have a trigger lock?

I have been lurking over to your site for about a month now. We have very similar sentiments concerning, politics, life and gun porn. Ha I am also an avid collector of guns and militaria and have been for a number of years. I was a US Marine from 1982-1986...on the old M60A1 tank...good years and I like that war room! Check out my militaria website at www.arditi43.com Semper Fi, Arditi

Sadly, no. I'm irresponsible. Not a trigger lock in the place. And the Coke is unsecured, too. Of course, you have to know your weapons well enough to know what ammo goes with what... and there isn't any shootable ammo in the house. Except for the shotgun, upstairs. But that is a horse of a different color. And, there are no small children in the house, other than furry, four-footed ones.

John,if I was sitting on top of all that beautiful hardware,I think I'd have the 20 mm Gatling in a turret on the roof to protect all the other stuff.Tough on the zoning laws,I realize. Seriously though,congrats on amassing the most impressive collection I've ever seen in private hands.

I find it calming to load a few rounds: kerchunk clink - round one kerchunk clink - round two rinse, repeat Then too, I believe there is only so much peaceful relaxation in the world so, when after a bad day, I tell my co workers I am going home to clean my guns I can just feel all the relaxation in the room being sucked up by me. Peace all.

Fred, you are a *baaaaad* man! Colt - there *is* the vault door you have to consider... and you should go see the JM Davis gun museum just outside of Tulsa, OK. Mr. Davis (now deceased) was my kinda collector. He had a tank and artillery, too. Of course, he was an Oil Baron. I'll hafta win the lottery, I fear. I got all the cheap stuff. Now the stuff I'd like is in the $700 up up up range.
