How old are we?
 
I was wondering the average age of the forum members

hayhugh 01-24-2021 08:54 AM

Bright eyed, bushy tailed and able to afford expensive toys..

Bluff Lake 36 01-24-2021 09:00 AM

Bill

HerrKaiser 01-24-2021 10:18 AM

25 years old, I cherish the wealth of knowledge I am able to get from those of you who have been collecting for longer than I have existed! This really is Luger University and, unlike the textbooks, it is free!

You could "do" a poll on your thread.

I'm 72, going on 45. :D

George Anderson 01-24-2021 10:32 AM

My "average age" is thirty-seven.

Heinz 01-24-2021 10:48 AM

I am a year older than George
37 x 2 + 1 = 75

pmanton 01-24-2021 11:07 AM

schutzen-jager 01-24-2021 11:31 AM

Doubs 01-24-2021 11:54 AM

Mentally 19 but the rest of me is 77.

lugerholsterrepair 01-24-2021 12:02 PM

Old age is a privilege denied to many.

guns3545 01-24-2021 12:16 PM

Just turned 86

hayhugh 01-24-2021 12:32 PM

Oh, you mean in years - 85 in June...

cirelaw 01-24-2021 12:34 PM

wayne8661 01-24-2021 12:42 PM

46 and feel like i have been through the ringer a few times. Got a new knee last January though. lol

sheepherder 01-24-2021 12:46 PM

70...or maybe 71...Hard to figure out...And I feel every year of it... :(

Edward Tinker 01-24-2021 12:47 PM

There have been a couple of polls on this through the years.

I am 60 as of October - and some days I feel 45 and some days I feel like I'm 70 ;)

52. New to guns, but a seasoned mechanic, good diagnostician/ troubleshooter.

Ron Wood 01-24-2021 01:25 PM

Only 81, and I am appalled at the amount of increasing maintenance that requires.

Mister Sunshine 01-24-2021 01:54 PM

86 and counting. I will have my yearly physical in two weeks. I had a great report last year. Of course there are no guarantees.

gunbugs 01-24-2021 02:30 PM

Just a youngster at 60. And can say exactly the same thing as Ed, as to how I feel some days. But, it doesn't keep me from looking for my "next" Luger.

Norme 01-24-2021 02:32 PM

I'm 82. Let's face it guys, with the exception of Herr Kaiser (who may have mistaken us for one of those kinky dating sites), we're just a bunch of old f*rts.
Norm

HerrKaiser 01-24-2021 03:48 PM

Well Norm, I will say that what I often see on here is sexier and looks better than almost anything on one of those dating sites. And the Lugers wont nag me about getting chores done around the house.

gunnertwo 01-24-2021 04:23 PM

Turned 63 last November, age is not our friend. Right knee replaced a year ago, need the other and a hip. None the less, I'm enjoying our hobby and the company on this forum.

MikeP 01-24-2021 05:47 PM

73.

foxdoublegunner 01-24-2021 06:47 PM

Well my friends, I just turned 64 and am retired twice. Now I am back in school to prepare for my third career. I am happy to see that I am towards the younger end of the spectrum. It gets tiring to be recognized as the oldest Marine in residence at the annual USMC Birthday celebration.
A friend reminded me this past Friday evening that I should eventually accept that there is a phase of life after work. I felt like telling him that my father died at 94 and worked right up until the final days before he went to the hospital to die.

spripple33 01-24-2021 06:52 PM

I'm 43 but IMHO it's not the vintage of the vehicle, it's the mileage and how it was taken care of.

Compare a pampered 1st gen. Corvette that has lived most of it's life in a climate-controlled garage with a beat-up '89 Chevy pickup that has over a quarter-million miles on it and has never even seen the inside of a garage.

I've had that truck almost 20 years. We both have rust and dents and some aftermarket parts...

But it's been a hell of a ride!

Sonofeugene 01-24-2021 07:21 PM

69, here. Looking forward to 70 so I can take my SS. Meanwhile, I mostly feel like I'm in my 50's.

pauly 01-24-2021 08:32 PM

61 here.

Vlim 01-24-2021 08:50 PM

Mind: 51. Body: 102...

Sieger 01-24-2021 09:16 PM

64 but my mind is much younger, or so i have been told by many.

pitsword 01-25-2021 08:56 AM

76 here and feeling very blessed.

Schupo 01-25-2021 09:48 AM

75 and still having fun collecting.

Sergio Natali 01-25-2021 10:16 AM

Some days I feel a bit like Edward does, this year I'll be 67 in November.

MP38 01-25-2021 10:31 AM

I can agree with spripple33.

My mind is 48, but my body has been road hard and put away wet. Feels like 78.

Matt:cool:

Kiwi 01-25-2021 01:35 PM
