My wife always ask why I don't take up golf as a hobby .......

This one is more satisfying ....

Oh yeah ..... 5

I have 12 handguns and probably as many long guns. My wife thought that was excessive until my co-worker was over at the house and showed her a picture of his gun room. He has in excess of 100 rifles and a handful of handguns. She no longer thinks my measly little two dozen is that much. Anytime she gives me grief about something, I can always point out a friend who makes me look good. Isn't that what friends are for???

I have 6, if you count my Confederate Colt Navy reproduction. It shoots after all! Oh and my .22 Unique semi-auto.

I am new to this forum and to hand guns. I was given my first 25 years ago, a Colt Trooper MK III, 4" bbl in Nickle. I recently purchased my first semi auto, a Taurus PT 917 CS stainless, 9mm. I am set to pick up my recently ordered Sig P229 SAS 2 tone tomorrow from my FFL. Probably won't sleep tonite. So I guess by tomorrow nite I will have 3.

Happy to report my answer to the poll is now inaccurate.

I started out too big,so had to have something smaller for C/C.It was O.K.,but not quite what came up next.Then it became a C/C thing altogether and the Manufacturers started making them thinner and lighter.I went for the bait and bought a couple more.It went on,until I "think" I have every pistol I need.From .44 Mag all the way down to .22.Last count?(9).Nothing older than 5 years.Oops.Sorry.
The .38 Davis derringer is about 15.

Four, but its not enough!! I want to add at least a HK P2000 9mm, HK USP 9mm compact, HK USP 45,
Beretta 9mm, Sig 226 and 229 9mm/40

I currently have a SIGPRO SP2022, HK USP .40, Taurus 1911 .45, Glock 17 9mm. I had a sig P250 but traded it in on the sigpro, loved it besides the 8mile trigger pull...



I like my 3 long guns, alot. But handguns are definitely an addiction!!! Just sucks when you cant afford the 15 different ones you want lol

These are just a few.

DFA 1/75 AR

Only have one for now but I don’t see me getting more then 5 I want to REALLY know the guns I have or as they say "make it an extension of yourself" and that only comes from constant use of the gun.

30-40 for me.

Although it could 40-50, don't really keep count anymore.

6 for now, but plan on adding many more.

Walter P22
Walter PX22
XD 9
Kahr CW9
SigPro 2022 .40
Taurus 24/7 .45

Hoping soon to get a Desert Eagle .50.

My collection has changed a bit since my last post in this thread. I have traded a couple and bought a couple. I took this family photo a couple of weeks ago when I gave them all a bath (took ALL day).

I put 2,even though i only carry 1 of them.

I wonder how the (censored) people afford so many guns.I have about $3500 in my 3,not counting ammo.

I just have my XDM9 and i love it, my next pistol will be a PX4 storm compact.

How about an option that say's "I'm not telling"

I added two Beretta 92 Compacts this week.

Just one for now (and only recently purchased), but I have every intention of expanding. I've rented and fired a good number, but I love owning my sig.

2 for now: Glock 17 and a Sig Sauer P238
I'm relatively new to handguns and can see how accumulation can become addicting real fast.

*Edit* - Just added a Kahr CM9 to my collection. Looking foward to taking it to the range!!

I have a .357 GP 100 wheel gun and 2 Semi-Autos. An M&P .40 with an after market .357 SIG barrel and a 9mm barrel, then I have a new Sig Sauer 1911 C3 Magwell w/Night Sights

There are lot's of good brands to own and shoot. I personally never understood a person owning 3 or 5 of the same brand - they are missing so much.

That works for me too - my wife now owns a lot of guns that we both shoot - it's great for me.

I hear you on that. I've had 3 S&W, sold one long ago "MISTAKE" and all my other's have different names. I buy by fit, if they don't feel good I don't buy. Funny thing is the least expensive usually are my favorites and most accurate.

I'm starting to feel like I have an obsession...I've got 11 but am looking for another Star and an FN 9mm. Oh, and a Bulgarian Makarov (have a Russian). Oh, and a ...

eight is the number. Well, maybe I need just one more?

I find the same thing. I shoot my glock and it is all over the place. XD all over the place.(gone now) but my Ruger wow, makes me look like an expert. Bought a Hi Point .45 for fun. I can shoot that thing really good as well. Go figure.
