Too many guns?

[A3Riderr]

So, following advice from a friend who’s also on here I have invested in multiple rigs. I mainly shoot HFT but take part in benchrest and FT. The advice I was given was to always make sure I have a spare HFT rig incase the main one breaks for whatever reason. The problem I now face is I have developed an obsession with having 2 guns for each discipline. So far I have 8 at what point is there too many in my collection haha! Does anyone else have the problem?

What is this 'too many' of which you speak?
Seriously, the only downside I can see is that the more you have, the less time you'll get to spend with each one. I peaked at 29 rifles but have got it down to five now.

That’s an achievement!

That is the exact issue I’m having! I’m getting annoyed because I don’t have as much time with each rifle that I’d like haha

It is a truism that the number of firearms required is N+1, where N is the current number of firearms held

My collection was small in comparison to some of the genuine collectors.

More than 20, less than 30, I need therapy

 

[A3Riderr]

Don’t get my wrong folks, I appreciate the fact I can choose which one but sometimes I wish I had enough time to shoot them all haha

 

[Right Cant]

You wash your mouth out!

Currently seven for me two springers and five PCPs

 

[Ian Cartmell]

One pistol and one rifle. Keep an eye on the sales board.

 

[Danthepainter]

I even owned a PCP once. That was first to go....

 

[Slayer fan]

The most I've had at anyone time is 13 I know have 12. Owing to a change of circumstances i will more than likely have to half that amount before long.

I think I must be (almost) alone in only ever having owned a single air rifle. What I have does the job, can't see any point in buying another. Appreciate this will likely be get me a life ban from the forum , so a quick thank you for all the help I have had, wish you all the best, etc.

As above ideal no' of gun = n+1

I went up to about 15 a while back, but I'm now back down to around 10.

Too many guns? Nah, does not compute...!

Its an old saying, but a man can never have too many/too much:
Guns, cars, motorbikes, tools, knives, fishing rods, camping gear, sheds, etc, etc...

Eight?

EIGHT?

That's nowhere near too many, that's about 1-2yrs normal purchasing ratio right there.

Get with the programme dude.
