How many pistols do you own?

[Jaybird78]

have more than 10? Why?

Seems like just a waste of money

Are you trying to start a fight?

 

[Hanzo581]

To zhyla: With that logic, why have more than one gun with the same caliber? 3 9mm? Why?

 

[UrbanCombat45]

4 semi-automatics, Hi Point-C9 2 JCP 40's,one JHP 45 and a Kimber Custom II .

 

[Kingofthehill]

More than 30, less than 50.

 

[Arkansas Paul]

Only two for now. A Ruger Blackhawk .45 Colt and a S&W Sigma 40VE. I definately want to add a few more. A 1911, a Blackhawk in .357 mag, and a nice compact piece for CCW. I'm sure when I get them, there'll be more though. That's how it always goes.

 

[Mudinyeri]

A gun collection is like a Harley ... it's never more than $1000 away from being complete.

 

[jglcolosprgs]

I assumed that you meant "semi automatic" when you said pistol. If I count revolvers, we need a three digit counter (ie > 99)

 

[pvthouse]

G21 g30 .357 mag colt revolver

 

[larryh1108]

43% at more than 10? I thought that would be #1 but not by this much. Interesting!

 

[Flint Ridge]

For once I feel good going with the crowd.

 

[Dobe]

I started shooting revolvers and collecting Smiths. I eventually got into autos, bought several different kinds, and started accumilating 1911s. I found I was doing the same with HKs. I have another HK on its way now.
Now, I'm thinking of my first XDm in 9mm.

I rarely sell any firearm. I envision me teaching my grandkids firearms fun and fundamentals. So, I assume I'll need them all.

 

[Morgo]

Poll needs way more than 10.
Probably should have gone 0-5, 5-10, 10-15 etc

 

[CajunBass]

I'd have to go count. More than ten. Less than thirty. I can think of a few more I want for one reason or another.

Seems like just a waste of money

But it was MY money.

 

[Sgt_R]

More than I can use, but not quite as many as I could find a use for. I could always find a home for another one.

[WardenWolf]

5, all but 1 Soviet surplus. Ruger P90, Romanian Tokarev, Bulgarian Makarov, Polish P-64, Hungarian PA-63.

 

[Yikes!]

Not nearly enough.

In case one breaks or is confiscated (shoot an intruder, lose your gun for a few months - at least in my state). And one is actually for the wife.

The 2 .22's could be consolidated into one, I kind of inherited one of them and neither are ideal.

 

[Sauer Grapes]

I have all I need, just not all I want. I shouldn't have shot that 1911 last week.

 

[Magnumite]

I own never too many...

 

[owlhoot]

My theory is if you know how many you have, you don't have enough. I have enough.

 

[PT1911]

Full sized steel 9mm, 2 compact/midsized 9mm (P-07/Steyr M9-A1), subcompact 9mm.... seems like an easy justification there...

.22 Lr (walther P22) for general plinking and introducing others to shooting,
.22 Lr conversion for my Kimber 1911 in .40

that is a fraction of my guns and I assure you I can justify every single one of them... thing is, i dont have to!


I have 4 9mm, 1 .40 cal, 2 .45ACP, 2 .22 Lr (need a few more of these!!!), 1 7.62x25, 1 .380, 1 .38, 3 full sized .357 mags, and I know I am forgetting a....... couple...

I am missing a 45 colt single action, a 45 acp double action, a 3 inch 1911, 22 Lr revolver (single action or double action or both,) a 44 special double action, a Glock (sadly!!!! but every collection needs one,) a 92 (Taurus or Baretta,) and several others that I cannot think of right now...

Once again, I can justify every single one of them....


and it all started with a P22

 

[Carter]

Sadly I only have one right now...

but that shall be remedied soon.

 

[DocCasualty]

G26, P220, P-64, P-83, Makarov, NAA mini, PT99, Vaquero, Cimarron Thunderer, 2206 and a Queen Anne (BP counts too, right?)

Why more than one? Most serve different purposes, some I just wanted 'cause they're different and fun to shoot.

 

[Narwhal]

Seven for now. I have at least two on my wish list, the S&W M&P 40 pro series 5" and a S&W 310 night guard .40/10mm. Right now I only deal in two calibers: .40 S&W and .357mag. Well, that's unless you count .22lr which is really a rifle chambering I guess (and .38 special since my .357's will shoot that too). I also eventually want a big bore revolver in .500 S&W, but I have no legitament use for it, I just think they're cool. If they made one in black I'd probably already have it.

From left to right: S&W M&P 340 .357 magnum, S&W M&P 40 Compact .40 S&W, H&K USP 40 Compact .40 S&W, S&W M&P 40 .40 S&W, S&W M&P 40 Pro Series .40 S&W, S&W 22a .22lr, and S&W M&P 327R8 .357 magnum.

I don't know how many I have, but I still don't have enough.
