Your pistol to rifle ratio?

[Standing Wolf]

Roughly 30:1 in favor of pistols.

 

[Hkmp5sd]

Handguns:Rifles/Shotguns:Machineguns
48%-48%-4%

or to answer the specific question, 1:1 handguns vs. longguns.

 

[jefnvk]

2:10

What can I say, mil-surp guns are cheap

 

[Smoke]

2:3 Shotgun to Handgun, about the same Shotgun to Rifle

1:1 (almost) Handgun to Rifle. If Wildalaska will hurry up with that Colt I'll be one pistol short of perfect 1:1 ratio.

Handguns: Rifles:Shotguns
12:3:2

 

[mcmoyer]

10:3 (plus four scatterguns)

 

[kudu]

About 4-1

43 longguns, 2/3 shotguns
12 handguns

 

[Locus]

5:1 Ratio:

5(?) pistols...
1 Rifle.

The question mark because one of them is in a questionable state of wear, and another is an ancient unidentified revolver. *Edit* Wait, also a flintlock. Does that count?

 

[tcsd1236]

About 1 for 1

2:3

I just took delivery of an M1 Garand courtesy of the CMP today, so it's 2 pistols and 9 rifles. If my math is right, that makes:

1 to 4.5 ratio of pistols to rifles. I kinda like milsurp rifles, and I also vowed to get better with the pistols I already have before buying any more (of course, WildAlaska had to go and do a group buy for a NRM Colt, so I'm gonna go ahead and get one of those ahead of schedule ).

 

[DWS1117]

3:1

3 pistols
1 rifle

 

[Greybeard7]

Some of each.

No other government on earth has a constitutional "right" for citizens to own firearms. The UN wants to insure that "NO" government allows private ownership of firearms. Seems there aren't many options left but to defend the United States of America and the Constitution.

4 rifles/ 5 handguns

 

[Black Majik]

pistol/rifle/shotgun

4:1:1

 

[GigaBuist]

6 (handguns) : 7 (rifles) : 3 (shotguns).

Dollar wise the handguns are winning. Nearly half the rifles are milsurps. The shotguns are in the collection just becaue it would be danged weird to be a gun owner around here without them. Nevemind that 2 of the 3 are Saigas.

Currently I need government permission to buy a handgun... else I'd probably have gotten a few more by now. Impluse buying and such. Much easier to do with a long gun around here than a pistol. PIty really.

 

[Zeke Menuar]

Three Handguns

Two shotguns

Five rifles

SMLE on the way.

[SteelyDan]

Long guns are winning this competition, close to two to one.

 

[700ltr]

1 pistol
5 rifles
5 shotguns
1 bow

 

[SkunkApe]

7 handguns, 2 rifles, 4 shotguns

so handguns to long guns is 7:6

 

[joab]

22 handguns
18 longguns---4shotguns/14rifles

Somebody esle do the math. I have a 1911 and an AK on layaway so the ratio should be the same when they come home.

As soon as I get a job and a C&R the numbers will skew drastically

Next purchase could go either way. So many needs, wants and choices.
