GC&RKBA as "favorite group" doesn't equal gun nut. I was very surprised to see that it was my fav group. If you don't post much, a couple of posts in the same forum will get you that designation.

I've stopped thinking "gun nut" to myself when I now see that designation in the profile. Now, I reserve the "gun nut" judgement for those that actualy post gunnuttish commments.
