Like almost everyone on this board I have firearms. That is, more than one handgun. My question for everyone is, "How many pistols do you own that you do NOT have a holster for?"
 
i would say close to 30, is that a bad thing? seems like i keep getting more, but a lot of them i have no need for a holster since MO does not alow ccW. Ronald
 
rmdye,

I grew up in Misery, and when I lived there, many years ago, open carry was legal. Is it still?

I have holsters for all of my handguns.
 
I have holsters for all my centerfires, but none for my 3 .22's. Thats because I never carry my .22's. I take them out to shoot, then put them back in the case.
 
Only two - a single action .22 and my CZ - have a LaserLyte attached to the trigger guard and haven't found a holster for it yet.......

The search continues.....:)
 
None.

Now if you'd ask how many holsters do I have that don't have pistols, the number would be up there. :D
 
Double Maduro, yes we still can open carry but i would wonder what looks you would get if you did it outside of deer season still see a lot of open carry then. Ronald
 
Buying holsters for new pistols is a cherished ritual... I have NO pistols that do not have AT LEAST 2 holsters for them...

Even my Ruger .22 pistol has 2, 1 belt, 1 shoulder.
 
I have lots of handguns that I like to own and like to shoot, but don't routinely carry. I don't buy model-specific holsters for most of these pieces, but I do have one of each size Bianchi X-15 shoulder holster (as close to a "universal" holster as can be bought) and a couple of open-bottomed pancakes (that will accept any barrel length) for the times I wish to carry those without dedicated holsters.

4 pistols, 3 holsters. But the fourth holster has been ordered and is being made as I write this.

Hmmm...you know, I think I could wear them all at the same time, too...:evil:
 
I have multiple holsters/carry options for everything but my pet .22 Ruger single shot pistol - and that's a pampered pet ever since I shot 10-for10 saltines at 25 yards with either the .22lr or the .22WMR cylinder!

Click to expand...

The object of the game is to not be able to carry them all at the same time. I mean, like, without a forklift... :D

Armatissimi e liberissimi! :cool:
 
Just one that I can think of off the top of my head - HS2000/XD (whatever you want to call it now :D ). Need to get one though as it would make a nice smaller carry piece (compared to the USP that is usually on my hip). As for the rest I don't know if they could all be in a holster at once, but I do have holsters that would fit them.

@ rmdye

Wish I had YOUR problem -- only two Berettas without holsters. Why couldn't I have 30 pistols...H&K and Beretta?:banghead:
 
Well right now I have 2 different pistols each has a holster. When I started w/ handguns I was working as an armed security guard. I bought a duty holster for every handgun. I even bought a duty holster for a S&W M29 4" barrel. I couldn't legally carry that revolver. Since I've sold all the handguns I never shot/carried. I have holsters for handguns I don't own. But I've learned. The last pistol I bought I only bought 1 holster for it. Now that pistol is for sale. The next pistol I buy will be an exact copy of my carry pistol so I don't need a holster. Oh no I all ready want a new holster for my current carry pistol. I have 8 holsters for my current carry pistol. I only use 1 holster. W/ the new holster I'll then have 9 holster w/ only 1 holster I'll use. At least the last holster will be the last. If I ever choose a different carry pistol. this last holster, for my current carry pistol, will be the same type of holster for future pistols. So at least I wont have to buy a bunch to see which I like the best. After I get 2 pistols the same. I don't plan on, buying a pistol, just to buy a pistol. so I wont have pistols w/o holsters. I'll holster w/o pistols & holsters I don't use for a pistol.
 
Two.

Ruger Super Blackhawk Bisley 44 Mag
Ruger 22/45 4" target barrel

I'm trying to solve the first, but don't know if I will ever get a holster for the latter.

Now, I have a few handguns that have more than one holster. Do they count for the overall? :)
 
You know its funny

I lived in jersey my whole life, No chance to ever actually carry a handgun except in a match but somehow I managed to aquire holsters for justr about everything I own! Why? I could'nt really tell you except I love the smell of new leather and enjoy the feel of older leather( I love to search those big boxes of used holsters at the gun shows - never know what you are gonna find<G>)
 
none. I never buy a handgun without buying at least one holster for it within the same month. worse than buying a rifle without a sling (I am now going to hear from every non-sling using rifle owner and every handgun collector on THR, but there it is...).

on the other hand, I also have a burgeoning collection of holsters that have seen minimal use, in that I buy them and then after using a few times decide I do NOT like them...
 
Thirty something handguns, and yes, I've carried thirty at once. Not my brightest move, BTW. The darned Broomhandle has no holster, but I've got a good reason. Since I want an original holster/buttstock for it, that's going to cost me more than some of the guns I've got, so it's on the back burner for now.
