No way will I ask how many of each, as I won't tell either. ;)
Just wondering in folks collections, which takes priority numbers wise.
For me, it's handguns, always been a pistolero.:D
 
handguns are for fighting your way back to the rifle......

lol

jk

i like my handguns but i like my rifles more.
 
I think handguns are more fun to shoot.

I currently have more long guns, but a long term goal is to correct this.
 
I carry a gun 24/7/365 and I don't hunt, so for me handguns are tools while rifles are toys ... I have more tools than toys.
 
I so seldom shoot my long guns that one .22LR rifle, one 12 gauge and one bolt rifle seem excessive.

I shoot one or more of my handguns about once a week. :)
 
I enjoy handguns more than long guns strictly due to the area I have to shoot at doesn't support anything passed 75 yds or so. Given a head count I have a fairly even collection though :)
 
I have a lot more long guns than I do handguns.

It bugs me sometimes because every time I think of spending some money on a new handgun I end up stumbling upon another rifle that simply must have.
 
I have more pistols than long guns, I don't hunt, don't really need a huge variety of long guns, although there's several I still want just because I always wnted one.
 
I had to open my 'puter s.n. roster and count. ...And long-guns wins by a nose.
 
hand guns. they're cheaper, and there aren't any close by rifle ranges, where as i can slip off down to the indoor pistol range 5 minutes away. yeah, i can shoot a rifle there if i wanted to, but i'm not wasting rifle ammo shooting at 25yards.
 
I have twice as many handguns as I do long guns, but as I do not hunt at the present time it works for me. I do however truly enjoy shooting my rifles and would like to add more to my "arsenal", and I use that term very loosely. With all of that being said I think I will always appreciate and admire handguns more.

I love rifles and shoot them much better but for me, handguns are typically more fun to shoot. More challenging to shoot well. Perhaps a bit more.....interesting, as well.
 
Of my guns, the handguns have the edge, but that certainly doesn't mean I'm slacking on rifles!

I'm equally interested.
 
I know I've got more long guns than handguns...

And if I could, for the life of me, remember exactly how many I had of each, I'd tell you.
 
Wow. Just about 50/50 at this point. Makes me wonder if most have a balance of the two or if the camps are divided? I guess my ratio is about 3:1 handguns over long. May have to do with the fact I'm not a big hunter, and I carry in a large metro area. Love to shoot too and handgun ammo is definitely cheaper (ruling out 22lr) and I can affordably shoot more often with handguns.
