How big of a collection is too big?

delaware_export · May 15, 2018

the last time i spoke of a new gun, my wife muttered something under her breath. sounded something like lorena bobbitt.

i thought about offering to sell one to get another, but i haven't sold a gun since the early '80s. quite the dilemma.

I’ve decided to sell off a few things lately. Stuff I just never really take to the range. Some were impulse buys, great guns but I’m in a purge mode with all things in my house so if I don’t use it on a semi regular basis it needs to go.

I am slowly working on reducing my collection. I am trying to reduce to 1 safe.

I'm trying to go from two safes to four so what might you be selling?

Are three gun safes and a vault too much?

If you have to lie to your wife or get into a financial bind, then you have too many. Otherwise, have at it.

In the eyes of most MSM and Democrats, unfortunately this answer is 1.

Has your slab cracked yet? If no then you do not have too many.

Simple, compare yourself to OldCarJunkie and you will be fine.

Also, NEVER count them.

I am not even sure this will cover it...

A collection should never get larger than two because if it reaches three or more the stars will magically align and all will be lost in a tragic boating accident. Then you will have to start over.

Bin there done that lost the T shirt too.

I'm on my third large gun safe / vault. :gun2:

I think 100 is a nice round number to shoot for.

but what if it starts there?

i've even told myself a few times over the past couple of years that i didn't need anything else, and yet i have bought a couple each of the last couple years... the only so-called good news is i have sold a few off that weren't used much, if any.

No such thing as to BIG. But there is the you have a problem when BG&E turns off and the bank is knocking on the door saying pack your stuff.

No such thing as too many, only houses too small.
