I won't put a list here, I don't like the idea of the government being able to find out.

I have in excess of the average 7, however, only 5 of them would be considered modern firearms. The others I inherited and the newest of them is my g/fer's circa 1930 .22 rifle. I intend to purchase 2 modern rifles before January in case they are banned again and if funds allow, another Sig pistol as well. After that I have 2 other rifles and another pistol to buy to round out my collection.

I can easily see where 7 would be the average though to have a well rounded collection in common calibers for sport, defense and hunting. Something like:

AR15 variant
AK47/SKS variant
.308/.30-06 or other long range/hunting rifle
12 ga shotgun
.22 plinker
9mm handgun
other caliber handgun

Well, let me be the first to state the obvious:



If only 7 is the average, we need to adjust our financial priorities. If we could get the average up to, say, an even dozen, we'd be heading the right direction!



As for me-

I'm covered, but I will be buying a few more here and there. New platforms, variants of current models,and calibers just keep popping up. What am I to do?

Yeah I read 7 was the avg. number of gun a avid shooter owns. But that number seems to be a bit low from what I see here. I figured the avg. would be around 5-6 myself here. I am behind the power curve BIG TIME!!!

But there is only one way to come up to speed huh.....:celebrate

I may own 8+ firearms sometime, but I will be a dead man because my wife will kill me when she finds more and more guns in the house:shock:

Wow, now I want to accessorize my AK. It's pretty vanilla right now except for polymer furniture.

Sevenfor the average shooter? That isn't reallyaverage. Here we go with the ol' lies, damn lies, and statistics problem again.

Heck,around here average is 7 of your favorite caliber, plus the rest. At least it's that wayconcerning the crowd I associate with.

Guns? I thought this board was for gnu owners. Damn, I gotta start paying attention and do something about the dyslexia. Thank Dog I realized my error in time.

After my canoe accident I was left with a CO2 pellet pistol and it quit working.

2x Saigas of the 12-gauge persuasion, and a few 10-round mags for those
1x Mossberg 500 Special Purpose
1x Hi-Point 4095 carbine with several mags
1x Kel-Tec Sub-2000 (.40S&W)
1x M1 Garand with a few dozen clips
5x Mosin Nagants of various types, including one scoped
1x Ruger Redhawk (.44 magnum)

8000x 7.62mmx39
1100x .44 Magnum

If the government wanted your guns they really wouldn't need a list. They'd just roll in and take them regardless of whether or not you told us.
