"Most Armed Man in America" 3,000 weapons

Post by bignflnut »

IN a country where it is believed there are two guns for every resident – one pistol-packing American is doing his bit to bump up the averages.

Mel Bernstein – known as the Dragon Man – has earned the title the ‘most armed man in the US’ and has a frightening 3,000 weapons in his collection – and that doesn’t include the tanks.

SNIP

“Today we’re going to explain why they call me the most armed man in America,” Mr Bernstein said in his weapons tour video.

Directing the camera to a room packed with hundreds of firearms, he said: “Look at these machine guns, everything works, fully operational.

“I have almost 200 of them in my name. I don’t think anyone in the US has that many guns in their name.

“I have weapons so big I can’t even shoot them.”
For a guy with that kind of collection, you'd think he'd spring for better ear protection. (Harbor Freight specials)

God Bless him.

When people ask why you need more than one anything, ask how many undergarments they own and why they need so many.
“It’s not that we don’t have enough scoundrels to curse; it’s that we don’t have enough good men to curse them.”–G.K. Chesterton-Illustrated London News, 3-14-1908

A friend and I were recently talking about a new pistol he wanted when his wife interrupted and asked "how many guns does a guy need?", I replied "how many purses does a woman need?".... she dropped the subject. :mrgreen:

"... a frightening 3000..." The writer should have used the word enviable instead of frightening.

Second time I ever went shooting (first time with anything more than a pistol) was at Dragon Man's outdoor range. My older USAF cousin brought me there and it was awesome. The shop did indeed have working tanks, Browning 50-cal machine guns, everything you could legally own in some way shape or form.
Good luck and stand fast, true Patriots.

Would he be interested in adopting a 50yo accountant as his son?
God,
Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can
and the Wisdom to know the difference.

Carrying a gun is a right, not a crime.

Gun control is racist.

Or a 52 year old IT person who could help him catalog everything he has!
