Not that you own one :wink:
My dad has done the same thing with BB guns, even though it never clicked as to why until just now. I had just figured he didn't want them getting banged up, so he wrapped them in a blanket to take them in the car. It probably helps that where we go, nobody cares about the BB guns.

Being in the military i had to take my M4 with me everywhere i went(yes literally everywhere). Won't lie I was absolutely thrilled when i finally got to turn it in after 6mths of dragging it with me. Guess my point is I'm so use to having to have a rifle with me it just lost its allure. I think the same thing would happen to a lot of collectors as well. They maybe get to shoot their weapon once a week and then its locked up like a prized possession. Just kinda ranting here but I never got why people collected weapons in the 1st place. Drag that weapon with you everywhere you go for 6mths to a year and see how much you love it then.
Bastardous Bassist:
I treat guns as a way to relax and improve myself. It's really nice to go target shooting with a .22 and all you're trying to do is get that next bullet to land closer to the bullseye than the last one. Sure, I'm always interested in shooting something I haven't shot before, but that list contains things that tend to be fairly obscure and not that much fun to shoot. Carrying a gun, owning a gun, or anything except shooting a gun is, I agree, fairly boring. But when you sit down and it's just you, the gun and that target, it really focuses your mind and is just a great way to pass an afternoon.

Not for another three years.
Seriously, though. I don't think it is supposed to be exciting to own them, or to carry them (nerve-wracking at first, sure, but if you find it exciting, you probably don't have the right mindset to carry), but shooting them? It's a blast. Especially if the indoor range you are at doesn't have very good sound insulation.
Melodic:
This has turned into a gun wank thread and thus is boring.
