    Shortly after I think I have all the guns I need, I find that I absolutely need at least one more.

    In March, I thought I had all the guns I needed. Today, I need six more.

    As always, that doesn't include the ones needed to replace what I recently lost in a tragic boating accident. (I have to learn to stay away from those damn boats.)

      30 would probably do it.

          I can't put a limit on how many. There is just so much out there that anyone would want. Hell, you can start with 1911s, then glocks, you gotta have a cz75, revolvers, shotguns, ARs, AKs, rifles, c&r stuff. The list just keeps on going. You can have like 15 mosins and still want more!!

            All I 'need' is one rifle or one handgun. I can pretty much take care of whatever I need to with either one, both have their +/-.

              This is my answer too. If I were rich I would have my walls covered with them.

                    At least the number required to arm everyone in my household in the event of you know what hitting the fan. A couple extras would be nice.

                      One of every .308 rifle ever made.

                        I have as many guns as I need, but not as many as I want.

                          Since I 'only' have three handguns, an AR and a shotgun, about 12 sounds right. But I'm sure when I'm at 12 about 24 would seem right, and so on

I think this is a pretty good variety of guns and could keep me occupied for the rest of my life. Of course, I don't plan on restricting myself to only these four guns, but I could get by with only these four if I had to.
                            I've been thinking the same exact thing lately, ever since I sold my SKS I told myself that with finances and space factored that I should streamline that this was my exact conclusion.
                            .308, 5.56, .40, 12gauge

                            I day dream of having a big safe stock full of choice rifles, but this is what I could live with.

                              than those who would seek to destroy me.
                              Grant me victory over my foes and those who wish to do harm to me and mine.

                              And Lord, if today is truly the day you call me home, let me die in an empty pile of brass.

                                The right number is one more than I have right now. The same holds for mags and ammo. 1 more Mag and 1K more in ammo than I have right now.
