How many guns do you need? (pistol, AR-15, cheap, handgun)

[Cyborgt800]

Well let's see:


One hunting rifle for small game
One for medium game
One for large game
One for shooting events
One for a home invasion
One for foreign invasion troops
One for domestic invasion troops
One for Vehicles
One for armored vehicles
One for Zombie apocalypse

One handgun for personal protection
One handgun as a backup
One handgun as a secondary backup
One handgun on each nightstand...so that's two
One stowed in the office desk
One by the couch
One for Zombie apocalypse

One shotgun for hunting
One for home defense in bedroom
One for home defense in living room
One by front door
One for clay shooting
One for Zombie apocalypse

One of each of the above at your bug out location
One of each of the above buried in an alternate location


Two more of each just to annoy the Liberals!

Exactly, but you need 2 of each because two is one and one is none.

I now am down to one safe. There are really only three or four guns I really use the rest are for SHTF scenarios. I feel like Ammo is more important than a lot of guns that without ammo are clubs.

LOL.....what is your definition of "good times and bad"?

All I need the .50 cal for hunting grouse.

If quality is high enough they should each last a lifetime and more. Even if they don't, the other three will suffice for just about everything.

The number of guns I need can most often be expressed as:

N = G + 1

where N is the number of guns I need and G is the number of guns I have.

Wrong question.

The question should be: How many guns do you want

Need is for the individual to decide for themselves but water is far more important than guns or ammo if things get that bad. If things get that bad, no amount of guns or ammo is going to help you live a second longer than someone else doesn't want you to.
