    How many firearms is the right number for YOU?

    I always love the posts where you need to give your "top 3,4,5 choices". I want to do something slightly different in this thread. What is the rightnumber of firearms for you? I certainly enjoy big collections that some of my friends have and enjoy when I get to play with them at the range. Having said that, I do have some I have bought over the years that I really don't shoot anymore and some I regret getting and others I don't.

    So, I'm not asking how many you have per se, but what do you think is the perfect number for you? I need to think before I can answer this myself.

    I think Thor's hammer was an 45-70 lever action loaded with Garrett cartridges.

    I find that 90% of the questions asked here have been answered 20 or more years ago by Jeff in hid Gargantuan Gunsite Gossip books.

      I think for me, that depends on how much $ I have .

                  365, because I think it is a crime not to fire a gun at least once a year!

                            I would guess around around 10 or 12 I would be satisfied with, but if they made me sell what I have then I would say I would stay with 6 (or 7 )
