Two longbows (one 40# at 28", which I overdraw to 33, so... probably 55? ish. The other is only around 20.) A varying collection of knives and axes, both throwing and handheld. (God, I love the SCA.) And my front door opens directly into my kitchen, within arm's reach of a block full of lovely Chicago Cutlery cooking knives my uncle so kindly gifted me upon moving into my own place. Also have a Chinese SKS and a little Marlin .22, but they're not at my place, so I don't really count them.
And frankly, anything can be a weapon if applied with sufficient force to the appropriate soft tissue. Like a glass coffee carafe TO THE FACE! *Busts out A History of Violence action*

The "Innawoods" loadout that will inspire my future purchases. I have most everything in the pic, I just need my Mosin-Nagant (not a problem), and a 6 Color Desert cammie jacket.

Cool stuff guys keep it coming...but um.... as the picture suggests..... Also, to help better represent my wide range of "weapons" allowed for the thread, here is my Ares M4 airsoft gun which I got about 3 years ago with plans to start airsoft and never have. Still would like to but all my money keeps getting eatin' up by real life and my plastic crack addiction (I'm looking at you GW) Maybe I'll start. One day....

@trooper One-Nine-Seven-Four Me too man. Me too. It was SUPPOSED to come with a black metal flash hider as well (shipping requires an orange plastic one : but alas I was jipped and never got around to getting one yet. Have no fear, by the time I start (whenever I start) it will have either been painted or replaced. The rest of the gun however is 1:1 make to the real deal (except it's innards of course) and feels and balances like the real steel counterpart. vegnaI use photobucket. Free account has plenty of upload space available.

It was SUPPOSED to come with a black metal flash hider as well (shipping requires an orange plastic one : but alas I was jipped and never got around to getting one yet. Well now. I was all set to go and share pics of my Pulse Rifle airsoft gun I got a few weeks ago--the first thing I did was pull the orange caps off of the barrels. I went into my Photobucket, and the pictures of it without the caps are gone from the album I had started for my Aliens stuff. This angers me. So instead I will have to share this: And this: Edit: Odd. The photo without the caps hadn't been deleted, but had been moved to the generic "Library" album, and not by me since I don't use it... So I moved it back to where it should be.

Since photos are required... my collection, in most of its glory. As I said, my .22, SKS and 12-Gauge are elsewhere, and I'm not going to bother including every knife in my kitchen. But yeah. I'm a modest collector; like I said, the SCA is fun. The little black handled Speedsafe between the lower bow and the quiver of arrows is what I carry every day; it just barely squeaks in under both the legal limit on blade length and the legal definition of "switchblade."

I believe that's the one, yes. I'm a bit miffed; the fellow who sold it to me told me I wanted the larger striking edge for target throwing, but I took it home and measured it, only to find that it was 3/4" too large for the kingdom limit. I'll be speaking with him later this season.
I'm adding to this collection probably more frequently than I should; someday (Not too soon, I hope) I'll get the USMC Raider stiletto and Civil War boarding cutlass my dad currently has. Probably also Grandpa's KA-BAR from WWII.
Sharp things are fun.

Wow, that's a nice collection you have Sgt Rock! Heres my collection of two: An antique Tulwar, that I bought on a whim yesterday. And a warknife given to me by my Grandad. Presumably it was standard issue for the Polish Paratroop Brigade (his unit), as well as many others.

Beautiful tulwar there.
The knife could well be Polish; assuming it was WWII your grandfather fought in, the only real paratrooper brigade the Poles had was formed in Scotland, so the Sykes-Fairbairn style the Brits used would probably have been issued to the Poles, as well. Either that, or it actually is a British paratrooper knife.

Yeah, I had assumed that it was issued by the British Army, my Grandad was never in the Polish army in Poland, so wouldn't have had much of a chance to pick up a Polish war knife.
Thanks for the identification though!

When I actually want to shoot to and a bit beyond 150 yards. When I want to tacticool it. There's also a P220 Combat ( along with a .22 conversion kit ), S&W Model 15 Combat Masterpiece, G22 and a Saiga 12 with thirty round drum magazine. Started to think about selling off the G22's ( have two of them, one 3rd Gen, the other 4th Gen ) as I rarely shoot .40 these days.

Oho, very nice Obscura! What make is your AR and did the rails come with it or were they aftermarket ones? I did the sig, and I'm jealous of the Saiga. I really want to get one and throw on that Ak bump stock and go to town with a thirty rounder! ;D

CMMG lower with Noveske upper combined with a Daniel Defense Free floating 1913 quad rail, combined it from parts I had lying around. It's a really resilient rifle.
Thirty rounder on a Saiga is amazing, definitely fun!
