[StrikeFire83]

I was just wondering how many semi-auto handguns yall own. I myself own four and that seems like just the tip of the ice burg, but then again I'm young (24) and don't have a lot of disposable income.

I know that ownership can easily become a hobby where collections snowball into insane numbers, with people owning piles of the same model.

My current weapons are as follows:

1) Glock 17 - 3rd Gen
2) Kahr K-9
3) CZ-75B
4) Kel-Tec P-3AT

Weapons I owned and sold:

-Kimber Custom II 1911 (pice of crap external extractor couldn't feed hardball, even after a trip back to Kimber, disclosed problem sold it at a loss)
-Springfield Armory 1911 9mm - (Worked fine, 1911 in 9mm just didn't make sense to me, so it got sold)
-Ruger P345 (my first gun, reliable, but I couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with it, sold)
-Springfield XD-45 Tactical (Great weapon, sold it because I moved to Cali for work and couldn't afford to shoot .45, big mistake, will buy another one when I get back to Texas)

Well, that's my complete history. Looking back I've made a lot of stupid buying decisions, and wasted a lot of money in the process. Hindsight is 20/20 I guess. I wish I could go back in time and un-buy some of those and un-sell the XD! Oh well, live and learn.

Tell me your story.

[Ala Dan]

Give me a minute, as I will have too count 'em~! :eek:

Let's see:

2x- WW-II 5" G.I. Springfield Armory Replicas
1- Springfield Armory 5" MIL-SPEC
1- Springfield Armory 4" .45 ACP XD
1- West German SIG-SAUER .45 ACP P220A
1- West German SIG-SAUER 9m/m P228
1- Kahr Arms CW-9 (9m/m)
1- Kimber 3" .45 ACP Stainless Ultra Carry
1- KEL-TEC P3AT .380
1- Browning Buckmark .22LR
1- Bersa Thunder DT .380
1- Walther PPK .380
1- Seecamp LWS-32
1- Smith & Wesson model 39-2
1- Smith & Wesson Stainless 5" 1911 .45 ACP
1- Les Baer .45 ACP Thunder Ranch Special 1911

Looks too me like the scoreboard says: 16, as I'm off too a good start~!

Worst Four Mistakes I Have Ever Made In Get'in Shed Of Guns:

2x Series 70 .45 ACP Colt Gold Cups, a 3rd Series Colt Woodsman Match Target,
and a Smith & Wesson factory nickel model 39-2. All of these weapons were
NIB and UNFIRED~!

[Mad Magyar]

I don't want the ATF, B. Obama & the future Democrat congress to know anything about me.
Hell, I lie most of the time anyway....:D

[StrikeFire83]

^ I'm with you in principle, amigo, that's why I gave the option in the poll. :)But don't kid yourself, if you've passed NICS your name is on a list somewhere.

[CountGlockula]

[StrikeFire83]

^ Holy $h** Gixerman1000, the next question for you would be how much do you have invested in that stockpile? :D

[CWL]

How about "not enough" as an answer.

[bobn]

0, Boat sprung a leak in the middle of the lake. Lost all my firearms. Today is Monday April 7, 2008.

How strange! Same exact thing just happened to me! Damn leaky boats.

[Gun Slinger]

Twenty-three.





Might have to arrange one of those "ill-fated boating trips" later. ;)

[glockman19]

Gixerman1000,
Great Collection

[theotherwaldo]

I'm an accumulator, not a collector.

Oooo... Shiny!!

-So I've got a bunch.

Lessee: a Glock, 3 Rugers, 2 AMTs, 4 Tokarevs, a Ladysmith, and some odds and ends in as-found condition - Raven .380s and such.

That's all that I'll admit to.

[RyanM]

3. Glock 23, Kahr MK40, Ruger Mk.II. Looks like semi-auto handguns are like potato chips, from the way people are voting.

[enfield]

2 to 5, but I ain't 'new to the scene'. :D

[simpleguy]

I have just started prescribing to the theory of....."I buy guns....I don't sell them."

It will increase.

[Eightball]

ATM, all I have is a .22 semi-auto. To be fair, disposable income is hard to come by when in college.

[MCgunner]

8 SAs, 4 rimfire and 4 centerfire

one single shot with four barrel/calibers

11 revolvers, 2 rimfire, 7 center fire, two cap and ball

[JoshuaC]

Currently just my NRA Edition Ruger MK2.

[10-Ring]

I'm in line more w/ bother Ala Dan than with Senor Gixerman1000 :D But far less than I would like :cool:

[cpttango30]

How is it if I own only two handguns I am new? I have owned through out my life well over 20 but right now I own two and I am purchasing a third?

Just wondering why that makes me new to the scene?

I like rifles more than pistols but I am branching out. Plus the pistols I like are not made anymore so they are a bit harder to come by and not in the budget for me right now.

[The Lone Haranguer]

Eight. :cool:

[45Guy]

I've got a SIG P6 & a XD9 4" but I feel well armed.

[IronSightRot671]

Got one at this time. In the future I will purchase at least 2 more. maybe another 9mm, and a 44mag.

I'm more of a rifle/carbine type of guy:evil:

Oh, on the topic, I have a few.

[DWARREN123]
