How many do you own?

[madmax]

I love the trill of the hunt. I love projects. Honestly I'm burned out. All my projects are finish. Extra parts sold. Just want to go out and thwap some critters

 

[rednek80]

"Enough". I'm not familiar with this word. Is it French?

 

[WoodsPlinker]

So my answer today is 2 and no longer 1.

I started out with two, but then I put them away in the safe... And the next day a few more appeared... Been happening like this for years.

Two would have been fine but they keep reproducing. And now I can't play favorites, it would hurt the others feelings.

If you leave two guns in the safe ...then another appears...does that make it a Son of a gun...?

I'm your ordinary Joe gun owner and I own 7. 3 rifles 2 pistols and 2 shotguns

 

[Member 34319]

One good thing about this thread. I no longer feel like I have too many...

 

[kisfish]

Ya makesme feel better too I. I don't have to many and I need to keep buying. The grandson will get a great collection someday.

I will have to teach him to appreciate the old cool stuff. I had a friend who's kids turned down colt woodsman, trapdoor, enfields, among other rifles that I just love now. They only wanted the ar's and tac stuff. I am a sucker for classics

Time Is more a limit to me than # of guns.

 

[titsonritz]

Nineteen bazillion +/- one or two.

Too many is when I do not have room for another safe - That saying I need to look for another safe

 

[Stomper]

I only have one shotgun.













For each finger.






Well.... almost, I still have all ten digits.

I could narrow it down to:

- 22LR bolt action or single shot rifle

- Pump 12 or 20 gauge shotgun with an 18 and 28 inch barrel

- My 18 inch AR15 (5.56)

- Winchester 94 30-30

- 30-06 bolt action or single shot

- HD pistol

- EDC pistol

I'm suprized that no one has answered " when there are no more guns I will still have enough"

 

[revjen45]

My battery grew according to how I might be bitten by gun lust (GL). It can be a matter of cognitive dissonance.
I love my Gen.1 Steyr S9. I acquired it because I was smitten by GL for one. I find it an attractive pistol, while I think Glocks are as ugly as a mud fence.
The S9 has been my carry piece since I bought it in '04, so I was well-served by GL in that instance.
At age 73 this month I really don't feel the need to acquire more "stuff" and not just as relates to guns. I think I will enjoy what I have more, and not just as it relates to guns.

Could but you won't!!!

I put mine in a rotation so they all get shot a few times a year. If I don't shoot it, I usually get rid of it.

I only have one safe and I'm out of space, so I guess I'm done adding more.

I could probably shove another pistol in somewhere...

This also seems to be highly dependent on laws, many people went out prior to 1639 and bought a lot of things they probably wouldn't have bought for years, or even decades into the future otherwise.

When my wife asks me this I usually tell her 1 of each.

 

[EHJ]

Too many...
And, not enough.
