Why own more 1 of the same model?

. Instead of asking me why, let me ask you why not?

Answer: Diversity!

Lol, no two guns are identical. They are at least 1 digit on the serial number off, and that makes each one unique and special to me !

Honestly though, I don't consider myself to be collecting "multiples" of the same gun, but I do have an interarms SS ppk, an interarms SS ppk/s, and an original walther wwII ppk. I also have three different 1911's, but they are pretty different from each other also.

Back up gun of same make and model for competition.

Guns break. You rarely know which part might go south. Same set up leaves you in the same division/class without having to DNF a match.

I use the Noah's Ark Method of Firearms Purchasing.

I have two of every gun I might have to take to a fight. I have two ARs, two Remington 870s, and two Glocks set up exactly alike. If one goes down, is at the gunsmith for repair or customizing, or is disassembled for cleaning when the defecation hits the oscillation, I am prepared.

I have no problems with folks having multiples of the same model. I am in the process of having two identical hunting rifles and two identical backup guns too .

Just my .02,

3 x M44s + 1 x M38 + 2 x M91/30....

Because 5 guys going through 1000 rounds of 7.62x54R with one gun takes _way_ too long.
