DefaultMy collection

Unlike many FTF members, I haven't lost all my guns in a boating accident. I was going thru the collection and came up with some useless statistics on the handguns I currently have (over a dozen):

35% are .45 ACP
29% are 1911s
29% are revolvers
18% are rimfires
12% are plastic
12% are pocket guns

Looks like I don't discriminate and I like just about everything (no Glocks though)...

given the high numbers of boating accidents I've taken up a new hobby -- diving. I now have about 1,000 handguns

Intresting NGIB, and a good way to view what you shoot. I guess I lack focus or I'm deverse. Either way I like to shoot.

25% are .45 ACP
25% are .40 S&W
25% are 9mm
17% are .357/.38
8% are rim fire
8% are 1911s
25% are revolvers
25% are plastic/polly frame
0% are pocket guns
0% are pink
0% Glock

Wish me luck, with the high winds here in the PNW, it's time to take my pistols for a sail boat ride in the AM.

Just useless statistics but it does provide some insight into our firearms mindset. I lean towards steel .45s obviously. At the moment I have no 9mm guns at all but I have nearly 1000 rounds of 9mm ammo - hmmmm....
