    God no, AG, lol. I was joking. I got your point and really appreciated your blunt honesty. If I lived in a remote location or even where the homes had more distance between, this would have been a different thing all-together. Personally speaking, if I were very remote, I’m pretty sure I’d go above and beyond the law in my choices of weapons.

    For our first 25 years we lived in a super-secure condominium, that never experienced a single break in of any unit, so the home approach is still relatively new.

    This is an odd question, but already something struck me. Do you look at guns as in like, damn, that is good looking. Granted, quality is just that, not based on looks, but f me. Just some of the shot-guns I saw already, damn nice looking peaces of hardware. Is that one reason many of you have multiple guns or is it purely a practical decision based upon need.

    It's a combo for me of the fitment of the mechanical components and the design ( ergonomics, functionality, balance) and that what makes a pistol for me.

    Now in long guns, I have to factor in the all of the above plus if it is stocked in wood, there are some real f-in beauties out there.

    Need of my quantity of guns....based on desire, love, lust, addiction. Call it what you will!
    There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...
