When I was 15, I could neither afford nor was I allowed to have more than 1. Now I'm in my 40s, I can. That's probably why. My Daystate is probably the only rifle I need, but I love having a play with the Meteors and Mercurys; they're a lot more fun and personable than the clinical PCP. Some I'll hardly ever use (the Relum springs to mind, although I bought it because it was ridiculously cheap, plus it's bombproof), some I'll use a lot, and there's still more that I intend to get. Plus, I have plenty of room in my "gun cupboard" for them, so why not?

Because I don’t like selling what I’ve got.

They all shoot a bit different. Space in the gun cabinets is intolerable.
