Title: I Had The Honor Of Seeing This Collection Today
Post by: ILIKEHEVI-13 on June 04, 2012, 06:02:51 PM
I drove about 100 miles north to meet my buddy Rick and I got to see this amazing flashlight collection.  There's about 110 flashlights in that curio.

You should have turned them all on and left.  Probably would have burnt a hole through the floor.

  When you say you got 57 @ the house does that mean that you've got some more hid that your wife don't know about ?   :OGani:

No I was just stating if you count the ones I have bought my son who is off at college and then that's not counting the ones I have given away that I would be very close to 70 by now.

Take your right hand and point your index finger straight up while extending your thumb at a 90 degree angle to the left. Now while doing this place the back side of your hand against your forehead.   :TooFunny:

Awesome. Best part is not the 300 lights that is great dont get me wrong but better is the fact that they get a curio cabinet. Now thats Impressive.

Now, what would really be ironic is if the lights went out in the house and not a single one of the flashlights worked :TooFunny:

It takes a good-paying job to support a habit like that.

Yea the guy has a lot of money tied up into that collection.  Most people wouldn't even touch it with their gun collection.

Flashlights, guns, calls, knives, fishing stuff, tools, heck everyone collects something. My non-hunting friends look at my hunting stuff and think I'm nuts too.

Indeed!  Y'all should see my dust collection.

Very true. 

A lot of those flashlights I know some will find it hard to believe but they will hold their value better than a lot of guns.

Most cops are kind of flashlight nuts.  I like lights and have a few, but that fella has an obsession!

That is a different obsession but to each his own.
