I've never owned a firearm, but I've always been attracted to it. What models are there, markings, mode of operation, loading method, calibers, sights, range, accuracy...
When I was in the army, I was engaged in the armory, when due to the amount of weapons that passed through my hands, I lost that interest (or reduced it to a minimum). when you have to do what you love every day for 8 hours, you stop loving 🙂
Now sometimes I go to the shooting range, so I don't forget how to aim 🙂
