Most firearms owned in one caliber?

[Moonclip]

I have 30 firearms chambered in .22lr, is that excessive? I think the most in a centerfire caliber is 9x19 at 20. Also I have a .22mag convertible cylinder revolver with a cylinder in .22lr.
I think there are people on rimfirecentral that have way more .22lr's though.

 

[coloradokevin]

Wow, Moon, you aren't doing too bad in the gun department.

Some of you guys really humble me about my collection of 13-14 guns!

 

[Moonclip]

Yeah but I'm poor now and I'm not married I think 12 .45acp handguns is getting excessive also, heck I even have 3x guns in 9mmLargo, a caliber that is rather obscure and that I have only 50 rounds in stock for.

 

[Shung]

I have around 30 guns.. I only have about 2 or 3 guns from the same caliber.. such as 9mm, 5.56mm 44-40, or 22lr ... but i have singles, like 45-120, 30-06 ..

I began snagging Mosin Nagant rifles when they first hit the US market after the fall of the Soviet Union. They were about $30 each at the time. I began buying them by the case at the time and saving the collectibles and selling the others off. Last count I have 42 or 43 7.62X54R rifles.

I'm considering selling the lot because it takes more time to maintain them than I can afford.

I like pistols. Only takes an hour to maintain a dozen .45s.

 

[rugerman07]

8 guns, 3 of which are 9mm.

 

[22-rimfire]

Guns ranked by caliber & numbers: 1st, 22LR; 2nd, 41 mag; 3rd, 357 mag; 4th, 40S&W; the rest are singles or doubles. The 22LR wins by a substantial margin (at least a lap)!

Added: I honestly don't think in "numbers" on anything other than 22's. If I can't count them on two hands, then it's "numbers". Last four firearms purchased were 22LR.

 

[Myself]

Many years ago I decided to collect 10mm's. I thought I could someday get them all since there weren't that many made. Still buying them. There were a lot more made then I thought when I started.

 

[Vaarok]

Probably got thirty or forty rifles in 7.62x54R, and probably twenty or thirty in 8mm.

 

[The Lone Haranguer]

Eleven guns, six of which are 9mm Luger.

 

[TCB in TN]

I have 14 (that I can think of) in .22lr
and 5 in 30-06, as the two most of any single cal that I have. Of course I do have 2 boys who love to shoot and hunt, so that pretty much makes it maditory to have a least 3 in any single caliber!

 

[jackmead]

Two, a Ruger 22/45 and a Bushmaster rifle with a conversion kit.

 

[davera]

9 in .22 cal
3 in 30-06
2 in 30-30
2 in 38 special
2 in .357

 

[moe.ron]

3 in .40 S&W

 

[Ash]

40 in 7.62x54r.

Finnish rifle collection.

[riceboy72]

More than half my pistols are 9mm. I keep meaning to get another .45, but it's just not happened!

 

[Ivy Mike]

I've got 4 in .22lr
Marlin Model 39
Ruger 10/22
Ruger Standard
Browning BL-22

Next up would be two in 12ga
JC Higgins Model 20 (which is a Sears brand on a High Standard Model 200)
Ithaca Model 37

 

[yeti]

5 - .45
4 - .38/.357
3 - .223
3 - .30-06
and a room full of .22's

 

[WoofersInc]

15 guns in 45ACP 9 of those are 1911's
9 in 22LR
5 in 9MM
5 in 308
5 in 40S&W
5 in 7.62 x39
4 in 5.56
Then there are various other calibers and guns but those are the calibers with the highest numbers for me.

 

[jkingrph]

7 in 7.5x57 Swiss, 5 in 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser, 5 in 45-70, & 10 in 22 LR.

 

[rockinrussky]

7 guns, each a differnt caliber. Well, you could say 3 are 30 caliber:
1 7.62X54
1 7.62X39
1 7.62X51
1 5.45X39
1 45acp
1 357 sig
1 9X18

I like different calibers, it keeps things more interesting, and expensive.

 

[Mac45]

The most would be (6) in .45 Colt, plus a Contender barrel.
.22 LR would be next at (5)

 

[scrat]

let me see i do have 5 22's. then i have several 12 guages and then 4 .44s. but all others are all over the board in different calibers. If all you have is .22lr you really need to get out a little more.

 

[EHCRain10]

5 in 12ga (all pumps)
2 in 223remington
2 in 243win
2 in 20ga
singles to fill out the rest

 

[SHOOT1SAM]

Hands down, 10mm.
