Hey! I already told ya, you don't get a gun until you tell me your name.

I think I remember my dentist told me I needed to clean my guns more, still not quite sure what she meant by that.

I can keep dreaming! Would love to add that to the collection

[OMG!WTF!]

This is my favorite gun in my collection...

Spoiler!

It's an animated cast iron cap gun from the 1800's. You pull the trigger and the donkey boots the guy in the ass and fires the cap. It's pretty rare. When we were kids my brother and I played with much newer versions of cap guns. We played with them all the time blasting through hundreds of rolls of caps. I kind of lost interest but he really liked guns. He grew up and owned a bunch of real guns until the day he blew his head off with a real gun. Since then I've been a collector of toy guns. They remind me of playing. The animated ones are hardest to find. Some are so rare there may only be a few examples left in the world. But so far none are so rare as to be truly unique or irreplaceable.

I have had it up to here with your rules!

There should be a high burden of proof that the gun is useful for game hunting, and it should be a prisonable offence to have to possess a gun that isn't useful for game hunting?

Random, but I met a guy on my way to Palm Springs a few months ago who claims he has one of the largest toy gun collections in all of North America. I think he said he lives just south of Okotoks or something. Neat guy to talk to.

What do you use those for?

I don't know much about guns. Range shooting?

I do competitions. They're also just neat for collecting, the one on the right is 100% Canadian made and very high quality, if it wasn't for this ban it would be a terrific investment since it would go up in price a lot. Not now

Is this projection on your part?

I've never understood why people that are in favour of harsher gun restrictions seem to be okay with hunting but not range shooting. What's the difference? If you believe that I am a risk to society because I own a firearm, why do I pose less danger to society if I use it to hunt rather than to go to a range to shoot?

I am personally for as much gun control as necessary, but admit that I don't have all the information to know exactly how much is necessary.

And “Gun Control” means so many different things to so many different people. It’s really a buzz word with no distinct interpretation. That is our first problem.

I think everyone understands your point now.

What are you gaining by spam replying every post about guns?

this was my first and second last post in this thread. This one was for entertainment value only, to answer your question.

Haha! Toy gun nuts! Our collections are always bigger.

Ha ha. He was joking it was something that wasn't well tracked as most toy gun collectors aren't the types to openly brag about their collections like real gun nuts. He was telling me about vaccine guns he acquired by accident when cleaning out old buildings with others and extremely fancy cap guns like the one you posted.

The dude did say something along the lines of having more than a barn full of the things and they're photographed and cataloged and insured, so I can imagine his collection is hard to compete with if he has enough to theoretically fill several shipping containers. He even mentioned that when someone stole a small pallet of some of his guns, insurance had to pay something like $15K alone for one of the toy guns. I think he mentioned something about wanting to throw together a toy gun museum with his collection if he gets bored with his business ventures or whatever. Something about trying to find a venue to share his eclectic collection with others.

He also said he loves to go to the car meet ups in Okotoks (especially classic NA cars). So if you were to poke around those types of meet up (when they return) you might find him there and be able to meet this interesting gentleman.

Interesting guy to chat with. I don't think we stopped talking the entire flight to Palm Springs.
