Now Rudy that's my kinda question and I can sure relate that that a lot better than the 2-3-5 or 10 folks want to limit me to. Still I'll be danged iffen I'm gonna artifically limit myself even to that many until the day comes when I have to.

Wow! only 50 my wife would be SO happy, I am like GB please dont set a number limit as long as I am able to own them I will, I love the smell of hopps #9 and the feel of blue steel and finely worked walnut stocks, its becoming a lost trade, when you go to the gunshows its hard to find anything without plastic hanging off of it,  :D   JIM

But what would I do with all the other one's I need?  This is such a stupid question that was proposed! Who in their right mind could limit themslves to such a paltry, lowly number as 50 guns?  I have a feeling Sarah Brady would be proud. All these guns--crimes just waiting to happen upon them. All these gun types out ther committing crimes and such. we are an unlawful bunch. Now maybe if you said 150?????
The first shot is the best shot, it may be your only shot!  Do it with a single-shot.

I'd buy more!

I'd run out and buy all those guns I've been wishing for.  Then probably feel too restricted at only 50.  My bank account is the limiting factor here - and storage space.

I thought that 50 might be a good starting point.  After seeing one too many of those worn out cliche articles in the gun mags on which two or three guns you'd keep, I decided to make the number more realistic.

I had a concrete vault built off the foundation of my new house.  The gun racks I built will hold 54 long guns and 6 drawers worth of pisols.  I shouldn't have to worry about things, until I get near the 50 gun mark.
