I was talking to one of my bosses today about shooting and he says "I didn't know you were a gun guy". I hear this about once a month or so. I don't consider myself a "gun guy", especially after reading and seeing what some of you here have. When someone asks if I am a gun guy I have started telling them that I am not a gun guy, but I do enjoy practicing the Second Ammendmant.
So, have any of you been called a "gun guy"? Or better yet, how many of you actually are gun guys?

I've been called a gun guy. I probably fit into that catagory.
Doobie Doobie Doo..
Very guilty...
Normally it's gun nut (what people call me)
I normally don't think so, but I do often get calls from friends seeking advice/opinions on firearms.
I've been called a gun guy. I find it interesting that you can be a, "gun guy," or a "car guy," but I've never heard anyone called a, "fish guy," a "train guy," or a "basketball guy."
I've been called a train guy in the past as well. Though I think the proper term there is rail fan.Originally Posted by alismith

Oh yeah, Gun Guy, Gun Nut, Gun Lover, I'm all of those easily so.
I hope so.
While no one ever listens to me,
I am constantly being told to be quiet.

Very guilty. I get a lot of questions at work about firearms because others perceive me as the 'gun guy' there.

After today, it's all historical.
Yup, this.
Face your fear, accept your war.
This does not surprise me.

Gun nut for sure. As in tennis nut, golf nut, etc.
I smile and call myself a gun nut sometimes when I see the look on somebody's face that finds out I shoot... just to see the reaction
If this elicits an uncomfortable pause, I know they're a tool. Often though, it precipitates a story about them or their dad, etc. having/liking guns.
So many people have a stereotypical "image" in their mind of what a gun nut is... and it's not my picture - or most anybody's here I would wager.

Same here,after obama got elected and the gun buying fenzy started they all came to me with questions on what to buy, so one by one i took them all to the range and let them fire my guns. Now i'm only one of many "gun guys" at work
They do think i'm a "nut" for having a little over 10,000 rounds of ammo, to me it's "only" 10,000 rounds
