I had a few before the boat accident.
How many in a collection? More than I can afford, I'm sure.
Sorry if I'm not being too helpful Hank, but I don't think you'll get many straight answers on this.
If you have more than 1 gun you have more than any person needs so you have an arsenal.
I have more than I need that's for sure. But the 2nd isn't about need, it is about the right to arm myself.
Let's see,
Squirrel gun
Rabbit gun
Deer gun
Bear gun
Big Bear gun
Target rifle
Target pistol
Long range small game rifle
Long range Big Game rifle
I'm still looking for more categories that need filling!
Both of my guns were lost when my 12 foot flat bottom bass boat capsized and sank 25 miles out in the Gulf of Mexico. If I were not an Olympic caliber swimmer, I would have been lost as well. No one ever told me that flat bottom boats don't do well on the high seas.
I used to have several but I have heard so many political speeches over the last seven years telling me how awful guns are that I got rid of all of them.
