The way I see it is if you like what your doing and can afford it and it makes you happy then good.... Of course I don't think I'd go that far with just one gun, I could mod several for 3k.

I never build to make a profit though, just to satisfy myself. As for affording it that is another story  ;)

The addiction is cruel though, the more you read the more you see fantastic parts that are now unobtainable. That drives me mad until I can find them for sale.

Blake, I hear you about cheaper hobbies, I did the RC thing for many years. I always threw away the receipts so I didn't know how much I spent.  ;D That might be a good idea in this one too. Lots of goodies for these guns. I ordered a CCS 2400, and I accidentally bought a stock 2240 at WallyWorld that I couldn't cancel.  :D I'm now shooting that while I wait, and I've already started to order goodies for it too!

If Customs find a problem with the guns I may be doing that sooner than you think  ;)

Seriously it is something I hope to be doing at some point.
