Some of this applies to revolver guys in general, but thought I would include them here as well. Please feel free to add to the list.

(1) You own more than two J or K frames of the same style and barrel length i.e. a 642 and a 442 or a 19 and a 66.

(2) You know what runs of the Charter Arms Bulldog are the better made ones.

(3) You know that there is a .44Spl and own a revolver chambered for it.

(4) You know the difference between a centennial and a bodyguard J frame.

(5) You carry full power .357 Magnums in a revolver with less than a 3" barrel.

(6) When asked why you carry a snubbie when there are small(er) semi autos that carry more ammo you reply that if you can't get it done with 5 or 6 rounds 15 wont help you.

(7) Even though you agree with #6 you carry two snubbies since if you empty the first snubbie you can draw the other one faster than you can reload the first one.

(8) You know what a Bloodwork snubbie looks like.

(9) You know that Colt made a revolver named the Magnum Carry.

(10) You carry a L or N frame snubbie in a normal basis.

(11) You actually own a X frame snubbie and you have shot it more than once.

(12) Your first choice in a 9mm is a S&W 940 or a Ruger SP101.

(13) You know what a Fitz Special looks like.

(14) The name John Henry Fitzgerald means something to you.

(15) You cried when in the book Ghostman the main character tore up his Detective Special.

(16) You actually bobbed the hammer on a DA/SA revolver.

(17) You carry a speed loader and a speed strip.

Thanks for reading.
Except for # 2, 5, 10, 11, 12, 15. I am a Snubbie fanboy. :D

Guilty: 5 J snubbies, 3 K snubbies, 2 L snubbies, and 3 N snubbies. Got it bad. Is there a 12 step program for this? Also, add #19. You know who John Jovino was.
Not that I've heard of. You could try buying lots more so that you get sick of them.

markyboy57 has it pretty bad, but I think he's happy. :D
 
They're just so darn cute!

This is one mighty fine post. I have a confession, I too like snubbies. There is such a positive attitude adjustment when I shoot my .41 mag snubbie.... Yes life is really gud some times. My .41 mag will rock and roll even if it is just a 5 shot revolver. Be safe all and remember what Memorial Day is about... Proudly fly the stars and stripes. Just my thoughts from the Big Sky Country,, Montana.
 
You have it bad when you have to stop and count your 3 inch and under revolvers. You really have it bad if you have a 2 1/2 model 10 (not easy to find). Below just 3 first 64-2 marked Detroit Police and second top 649-1 unmarked Michigan State Police BUG and a 49 it was a BUG also.
