Can a collection consist of only one rifle?

[Hsing-ee]

I'd like to get my collection down to just one rifle. I'd still have a few to use for different purposes, but only have one 'discretionary' rifle. But is that a collection?

No. It's just a start

What i have done is i dont count two types of gun, lets say bsa mercury and sharp innova. That way you can have one diferent rifle and tons of the ones you dont count. This way you can officially only have one gun and your cake, and eat it

No.

If you strip it and lay out the parts I think that constitutes a collection

No-can I become a crowd?

In your case I think an exception to the rule can be made, Alistair. Even if you do manage to get the collection down to one, it won't be long before the number heads back up again. It's your destiny, my friend, as the eternal "reluctant collector".

Beware the one gun man...

I have a collection of one. At one stage I had a collection of 30, but was chasing the elusive gun of my dreams.

I got it - Webley Venom Tomahawk Sidewinder Varminter in .177. Only 2-3 exist. (thumbhole stock).

I dreamt of it since I saw a review in Gun Mart in 2003. Now I have it I don't want anything else........

until I saw a pro-elite for sale. This is only to keep it company as it appeared to be lonely.

So yes - the only way is up!

[Hsing-ee]

So a different one each four months?

Or even one which is modified from springer to PCP to recoilless springer from.177 to .22 to .co...

I think I'll just thin down a bit. Danny is right.

it seems to me that as a consequence of owning one thing, it nearly always leads to another as you start to find refinements and interesting features ;therefor if you can say you have found in this case a rifle/pistol that contains the widest number of refinements useualy found in several other models i suppose it avoids the neccesity of a collection,cant say that it works for me .i would say 30 is a nice round number which i have heard on a number of occasions give or take a couple ,i cant say now "umm i would like one of those " as at 30 or so i seem to have all that i want.

30!!! Due to current circumstances I am down to four from six. If I could afford too I would own several hundred, like that swine Ian Jones.
