What did you stop collecting when the addiction took hold?
You still look at it but,, " Nah, Ill just wait!!!
Bound to find my grail Busse!!:D:D
 
Guns. I used to buy at least one gun a year.

I have not bought a firearm since I started collecting Busse. I was in lawschool, and could not afford to buy both.

There is still a list of guns I "need". Really, I don't have a waterfowl shotgun. Nor do I have a deer/elk/ etc rifle anymore. I have "enough" pistols and "people" rifles and a combat shotgun. Couple semi auto .22 Rugers.Two .357 revolvers. .40 glock, ar15, M1carbine and .30 carbine pistol.

I need a semi .308. Some sort of Deer gun and elk gun would be nice. (of course, now I live a few miles from my dad, which means I can borrow one of his great guns whenever I need).
 
Swords, Bayonets, Fighting Knives and Jack knives (all military) I still have 193 of them!!!

I'm with ya J!!! Just got an original high gloss blued 6'' from a friend here on the forum. Hands down the smoothest action I have ever felt on a firearm.
 
rocks and fossils[mainly fossilized shark teeth].guns,folding knives.but now due to the economey im not collecting anything..
but im always looking for a good deal on a busse.
 
Boy, I didn't collect much of anything before Busse. Seriously.

And now that I have Busse, well, there just isn't anything much else. :D

I'm pretty happy with that, actually!
 
Firearms...First it was just about anything that I thought I needed, then I started with the older browning Safari grade rifles, the FN and Sako made.
Then I got bit by the M1 Garand bug, I had 18 M1's when I bought my first Busse, now I only have three. I blame Porkerson!!
 
Music for me. I have close to 2,000 CDs and a few hundred vinyl records consisting of all things heavy.
 
Mostly mil. surplus firearms.

Have a pretty good collection still, but havn't bought too many since I discovered Busse.
 
Like many here now, I came to Busse more recently, in 2006, but have been buying knives for a long time. When we went to Florida in 1982 for a family wedding, we detoured over to the Randall shop, and I was fortunate to find a Model #1 in the display case. I used to go to gun shows looking for interesting knives. In the '90s, AG Russell got me hooked on Bertram Hen and Rooster slippies, and then in the early days of eBay I was able score many of those, probably over 50 of them.
