[QUOTE="Bigdawg90, post: 4341522, member: 49831"] I think more than anything, too many people bought too many guns during COVID. I had buddies that literally bought every Glock they could find. One guy ended up with 6-7 9mm glocks. It’s not that he doesn’t “need” them, but that’s excessive. Plain and simple. I know most of us are conservatives, but we’d laugh at anyone with 5 F-250s that never get driven. I’d call that guy a dummy. I told my buddy he was dumb. Got an older buddy that has 5 AK-47s. All PSA, never been shot. That seems like a waste. I know we all like to make jokes that there’s no such thing as too many guns, but I’m there. I’ve got 2 kids. I haven’t shot a couple of my guns in years. I’m not special or anything, but I don’t need half my guns. They’re cool and I like them, but they’re a luxury just like a nice truck. I bought the guns I wanted and now anymore is just more of the same. I think there’s a big part of gun culture that doesn’t want to admit that guns are pretty useless outside of a civil war or urban unrest. Gun marketing is REALLY good and has ratcheted up the “necessity” of tons of guns. I think a lot of people thought their guns were a good “investment.” They’re not. They’re subject to market conditions the same as anything. There’s too many AR-15s in America to believe the value will go anywhere but down. [/QUOTE]
