It counts some. What I have yet to meet is another woman who eats, drinks and sleeps this stuff with an unimaginable passion to the point of being totally consumed by it. Then spend over 15 years obsessing over their HK collection and spending well... I don't have to explain this to any serious collector in this forum... we all know what a financial commitment this hobby is. This level of HK obsession I have never seen in another woman and is what I am referring to. Heck even my local male gun hobby friends are no where near as crazy about this stuff as I am... they think I'm nuts. It is an illness that I fear has no cure.

Tony, while HK is by far my greatest love... I too have also collected other brands and have been down many side paths especially with B&T. Since B&T hit the US shores with their offerings I kind of got side tracked for a little bit and purchased a total of 15 B&T's from 2015 to 2019. I'm only keeping 3 of them... 2 APC223's and my SPR300 which is by far my favorite B&T. As far as Steyr goes I still have my AUG A3 NATO and with FN I have sold them all... M249S, FS2000 and PS90. I also at one time slightly got into collecting Colt snake revolvers but quickly came to my senses on that one after having an 8" Anaconda, 6" King Cobra, and many Colt 1911's. As far as Beretta goes... I've had a ARX100 when they first hit the market... at least 3 92's in various forms and way way back I actually had a Beretta storm (hangs head in shame on that one... lol). I've made a spreadsheet just to keep up with the long guns I used to have before old age robs me of my memory. I've had and sold/traded over 60 long guns over the last 15 plus years. I've sold and traded way too many handguns to even remember them all... even more than the long guns. One thing that held true as my journey progressed was that HK became and stayed my favorite... it always will be. Now if we could just talk HK into bringing the 433's and the MP7 to the US market... lol... I know I know... yeah I got it REAL BAD.We can only be enablers--- I am an equal opportunity obsessor--- Beretta, Colt, FN, HK, Steyr, etc..

If you asked my friends and family I think they would say I have more than a problem... lol. I don't regret it at all except for the great fear of my babies being taken away via politics. If I had the chance to do it all over again... the only thing I would change is I would ONLY buy HK almost exclusively. I could have saved a LOT of time, money and headaches.Well......at least you realize you have a "problem"

I’ve been looking far and wide for a woman who will accept my “habit” but alas there seems be none in my area who understand the Class III disease and how it affects your life....once you get a taste, it’s all over....I’ve worked my way up and finally have a pair of real MP5’s (MP5 and MP5SD) plus various other HK type host guns and other machine guns. Seems like women don’t understand the pleasure that comes from automatic weapons firing
I’ve also come to this conclusion-if it has t@ts, tires, or a trigger, it’s gonna be fun but expensive. LOL
