45, lost interest in guns 10 years ago. Gladly sold them all and didn't look back.I am starting to lose interest is pretty much everything that used to be interesting. I guess it is just getting bored with the same old stuff. I am 70 years old.

Sweet mercy mother of God!!! Bear hunting!?!?! Good hunting Mr Wick.Have always had an interest in guns & shooting/hunting
The hunting part left about 10+ yrs ago
Still buying guns I don't need
But they still interest me
Like this 10mm Springfield..or Ruger PC9 carbine....etc.......
pic is 10mm.....16+ mags....a hand full with full nuts loads
This is an accurate assessment. Also, more than 50% ofThe blue states will get more restrictive. That's not going to matter, because most of the gun people are fleeing from them anyway. But we won't lose the Second Amendment....... EVER.
I remember in the 70's I thought the Equal Rights Amendment would surely pass. I mean why not? But it failed. In fact last August they couldn't even advance a resolution to remove the deadline for its ratification. It failed to pass by 51 to 47.
As it turns out, they've been beating that dead horse for 50 years. And it had far more support than trying to repeal the Second Amendment will ever have.
Adding and repealing Constitutional Amendments is a very difficult process to accomplish. The founding fathers of our government purposely set it up that way. And you also have to remember the corporate media only reports one side. They're every bit as corrupt as the government they're trying to report on. Especially when it comes to guns.
They all make it sound like anti gun measures are more popular than they actually are. Today we have concealed carry handgun laws in most every state. Many have reciprocity. If you would have said that back in the 70's people would have laughed at you.
Most people thought all handguns would be banned by today..... Yet here we are. With the addition of several states adopting, "Stand Your Ground" laws as well. It's not as bad as most would lead you to believe.
I am 70, 30 was great .I never was a gun collector but I have what I like. I may lose interest from time to time but I will never give up what I have., Of course I am still in my 30's now ( for another year) and anything I leave will go to my family. I hope to have more by then.
doing the same thing. Getting rid of guns I don't really need. Just keeping the ones I really have a need for.I used to be the "go to" guy in my PD for weapons knowledge and advice back about a decade ago until I was nearly killed when an old man turned left in front of me and my motorcycle. A near death experience will take some the fire out of your furnace for sure. I was always practical with my wants but even more so. Getting rid of guns I don't really need. Just keeping the ones I really have a need for.
When I see somebody looking for attention , I make it a point to ignore them . Loud car , big loud gun ? Doesn't matter . You won't get an audience here .Shot another 200 rounds through my G17 and P320 today at the indoor range. Fun was had for the most part I guess.
I know we're all different but man, I don't understand the need to show off and 'win' at the range. A guy three lanes down was apparently given permission by the RSOs to do mag dumps with his AR and the percussion was literally making my teeth hurt. I wasn't the only one looking over and shaking my head. Dude seemed to enjoy the fact that everyone stopped shooting while he was dumping, and was all loud 'look at me' yuk-yuks with his buddy between mags. Yeah, cool, bro.
Had the same experience at an indoor range several years ago. I went there to try out a brand new Bersa Thunder. 380 that I just got. No one on either side of my lane at first but after I shot 20 or 30 rounds a guy showed up with an AR in the lane to my right. I didn't pay much mind and reloaded and continued to shoot the Bersa...until he started shooting his AR...and it was no .223/5.56 rounds, it was insanely loud and percussion as you described. It had to be .458 SOCOM. I packed up and left and never returned to that range. Never liked indoor ranges anyway.Shot another 200 rounds through my G17 and P320 today at the indoor range. Fun was had for the most part I guess.
