I tend to collect paper with holes punched into them from 200+ yards away, recently started on knives (mostly handmade by me), and I do have a "Social Distortion" t-shirt collection I'm still working on...Oh and lots of tools.

Useless left-over hardware, .45 holsters that look like they'll be better than my dirty old Galco, but aren't, and annoying minor injuries. :roll: :lol:
it's all about the bikes, man. viewtopic.php?f=6&t=50053
I was going to update my sig line, but I'm not seein' anything worth plagiarizing right now.

Haven't punched long distance holes lately because of the price of ammo but every now and then my brother will reload the brass I collect and give me a couple boxes of his special 556 for my trouble. Been shooting the 40 S&W as of lately.
This is my latest creation, a tactical Gurkha kukri with a swedge tip tanto. RC hardness of 58-59 high carbon 1095 Camillus steel. Custom molded and shaped epoxy resin handle (waterproof), full tang, 1 lbs. 13 oz. :mrgreen: Proud to say that one of my creation identical to this, is currently seeing action somewhere in Afghanistan by one of our special forces.

I have a Donald Duck collection, and it has only been displayed once, for about 3 months at the city library years ago. I also have Hotwheels, other diecast, model kits, Tony Stewart Home Depot stuff (but none of the Stewart Haas Racing stuff yet), and a small (75-100) vinyl album collection.
That's a squatch!

R/C cars and boats, and 1/18 scale die-cast cars. I should find some cheaper hobbies...... if they actually exist :cry:

WWII US militaria...
Mostly USAAF stuff now though. groundcrew gear, armourers tools, engine tools, airframe tools etc.
78 records and the occasional gramophone player
bits for my '53 Chevy and any old bikes I can lay me hands.
Oh and anything else that I didn't realise I wanted till the moment I saw it then I'd die if I couldn't have it :roll:
