There’s so many optics and rails and lights and slings and suppressors and triggers and grips out there. People that get into it spend a ton of time min maxing their setups for competition, home defense, long range or whatever else suits their fancy
And that’s just the guns themselves. But there is a difference betweem gun nerd and gun nut as others have said
Yeah, I’m aware, I’ve played H3VR and have friends who are, as I just learned, not gun nuts, but gun nerds I guess. While I can understand being into guns due to all the things you mentioned, and I’ve enjoyed shooting them before, I personally can’t get over having killing machines as a hobby, not to mention the data on the relative lack of shooting in countries where you can’t as easily own these things. So, I practice what I preach, and have chosen to not get into the hobby.
That said, even I have my grandpa’s old pump shotgun on a shelf (without any ammo in the house), as I have enjoyed shooting trap on occasion, and it was free, though I haven’t thought to touch it since I inherited it over two years ago.
