p239 in 40 has a 9mm conv bbl and a 357sig conv bbl--can i count it 3 times?
cz52 in 7.62x25 has a 9mm bbl--count twice?
 
I have more than one gun in the following calibers:

.22
.22 mag
.45
9mm
.357 mag
.38
.44 mag
.30-30
7.62 Nato
.30-06
8mm Mauser
7.62x39
12 ga.
20 ga.

My safes are crowded. I want more.
 
I've only got one gun that shoots .22 Mag. (A Ruger Single Six, .22LR & .22 Mag.)

Any suggestions for a second? I'm thinking a long gun would be a nice complement to it.

I have 5 .22's, (Marin model 81, Marlin model 60, Ruger 10/22, HS Sentinel R-101, Ruger Mark II), 3 in 7.62x54r (91/30, m44, m38), and 2 12g shotguns (H&R Topper 158, Charles Daly Field Tactical)
Those are all my duplicates for now, but I've pretty much cut myself off on more .22's

As for why, I'm not sure, I just got good deals on all of it and it kinda ended up that way ^_^
 
I guess I should have voted for a higher number. Caliber isn't the same as cartridge. For example, Commission 1888 rifles and Turk 93 rifles are the same caliber as Yugo M48, Persian M98/29 and Turk M38 rifles, but they don't take the same cartridge. Not in my hands, they don't.
 
I have two .357 revolvers now, but before I bought the second one (S&W 686P) to replace the first one, I bought a lever action rifle (Henry) because I didn't have one, and there's all this ammo laying around. One of those revolvers (S&W 60-15) is for sale tho, probably.

I have two rifles in .308, an Ishapore that is questionable, so I got a semi auto, because I didn't have one. I'm considering another milsurp in that caliber, as I have all this ammo laying around.

I have two Mosin Nagants, (M44 & M39) one (the former) is for sale, maybe, because I like milsurp bolt action rifles. And there's all this ammo laying around.

I have two 12 gauge shot guns, one in the bedroom, the other for skeet. Only a hundred or so rounds.
 
1. 22 lr: 3 bolt action rifles and one revo - cheap ammo, best plinking round IMO...got a fourth .22 rifle today

2. 38/.357mag: 4 DA and 1 SA revo, one lever rifle - cheap to reload and cast for, most versatile all around cartridge for me

3. 7.62 x 39 russian: 2 rifles - cheap ammo, reliable and accurate for the purpose

Yup, I'm cheap and happy:)

I don't know if I'm proud or ashamed to admit that "all of the above" would have worked for me. It's like a Christmas Carrol...
5 Mosins Barking,
4 SMLE's Talking,

Got duplicates for 45/454, 22 and 223

Figured I'd need spares for the zombie apocalypse. Besides, collecting is nice. Some of these things are like artworks to me.
 
My Smith 340 and my 6" Ruger Security Six are both .357 revolvers but that's about all they have in common...for one example.
