Default How many are enough?
Pistols, that is.

Right now my wife and I each have a medium to compact gun for carry (Cougar .40 and Taurus Millenioum 9mm) and each have a pocket pistol for backup (Ruger LCP .380 and Seecamp .32). Add in a Beretta Neos .22 for practice. She thinks we have enough, I think we have a good start.

How many do you have and what does this allow you to do? I ask because the gun is just the start, you have to have holsters/etc for them and I imagine some of you just stay proficient with the one(s) you normally carry.

No such thing as enough if you can afford more.

My firearms shopping list simply reads, "One of Each."

When I have one of each I'll worry about how many is enough?

When I first got married my new bride asked me how many guns did I really need, I told her I was not sure, I would let her know when I had enough. That was in 1987, and she is still waiting for an answer.

I've only had the Stoeger for about four months and I'm already thinking a lighter .40 polymer pistol would be smaller and lighter to carry, leaving the Cougar for the bedside table or truck...
