Guns are just a tool. Whats the hype. I am former SF and now run a bodyarmour company making plate carriers for the SOF community. I should love guns but meh, just stuff to get the job done. Made for a reason. Nice to stay current with weapon/gear development but it gets old. Stay current in tactics.
Although I do like pre 1900 stuff and if I collected. It would be mostly blackpowder and early, like first gen cartridges. Early blackpower revolvers.
But then there is Lego. My passion.
