Cool hgobbies guys, always interesting to see what other people in different walks of life do for fun!

My current hobby is guns. I do not hunt, only target shoot. I like guns due to the wide variety of mechanical operating systems they use. Always cool to pull one apart and see the genius that goes into making something work!

Mainly focus on handguns, I have about 40 right now. I also like shotguns, mainly the ak based russian models. I am a great pistol shot, but need to work on my rifle shooting techniques.

Other hobbies include all manner of home and garden projects, welding, and the occasional custom paint job. Since I own a body shop and paint cars most of the time I am not so hot on doing that in my spare time. I have done car audio, engine building and sportbikes too.

Guns are great, the really hold their value, and will often go up in value in short time periods.

Fun times.
 
Yea fun times come in all forms. I also love waterskiing, skimmerboarding, and almost anything on water, but rarely have the chance. I am a top marksman in pistol, and rifle, but do not own any guns myself. As long as we have kids living at home too much risk for my taste. I hope some day to be in a position to build my own classic vehicle from teh ground up. Maybe even create some of my own designs to make it extra special. I truly enjoy taking someone else's design and making it better. More power, more strength, and more impressive in any way.

Luckily have a friends with boats, best of the bunch would be the Mastercraft X2 I guess although I prefer the 2x250 hp Protector we use at work. Don't have a photo of it exactly but similar to this one. Goes through anything & when it's full of fuel & friends, has a good solid wake

Nice Nice Nice. All great hobbies guys.

I tinker on my Nissan 720 minitruck. Having a family and busy work schedule, stopped me from being a minitrucker. Truck is parked now and saving for when my son gets older. His wish is to work on it when he gets older. I love motor vehicles in general and driving is what I do best.
Music is another hobby of mine and I'm a bit of an audiophile.
Photography is another one. I'm needing a new camera and waiting for the new Sony DSLR that uses a two way mirror.

First love
 
My first love was basketball growing up, and I used to love playing raquetball, but once you reach a certain age these things get to be just too dammed much work, but they are great sources of exercise. Anything that keeps you moving is a good thing, right???

Does that include walking between the fridge & the couch?

You bet ya, and don't foget the one armed curls as well. Got to keep those muscles pumped up. You can even things out by switching hands every so often so you don't get lopsided with too much bulk on one side.
