More than I can carry:lol: but still not enough.....

I did finally settle in on being consistent with caliber for pistols .22, .38, 9mm and .45
Glocks, Kimbers for semi's and S&W for revolvers.

I still need a .45 revolver so I can shoot ESR in IDPA....

Buy the Hi-point, but carry the Ruger.

Hi-points are great, inexpensive, and decently reliable guns, but not as reliable as that Ruger, not even close.

Guns to get... Sig P220 .45acp:banana:

I would highly recommend the Sig P220! It is one of if not my favorite gun. Of course I prefer the Stainless Elite model. http://www.sigsauer.com/Products/ShowCatalogProductDetails.aspx?categoryid=6&productid=186

So is this the "List your weapons to make it easy on the BATFE to keep their list up to date" thread?

Before several tragic boating accidents I had several. I could always use one more though. :)

My favorites: Sig P220, H&K USP.

If you you had to get only one I would pick one of those two.

Between 85 and 100 guns in my 43 years of collecting. How I wish that I had them all now. For examples of the guns that have gone through my hands.....Colt Python, S&W Model 27, 70s series Gold Cup, Colt Trooper MK 3, Colt Combat Commander in Nickel, Colt Diamondback, Colt Commander made in 1967, Colt Frontier Scout circa 1967 bright blue finish with stag grips, Three screw Ruger Blackhawk 41 Mag. And some junk too, but that was in my early days and a story for another day.
