Don't like being hammered by the Cast Boolits Staff, then don't be a nail.
The rules are simple to follow.
I have only 13 rifles but I tend to shoot them regularly.
Pax Nobiscum Dan (Crash) Corrigan
Currently casting, reloading and shooting: 223 Rem, 6.5x55 Sweede, 30 Carbine, 30-06 Springfield, 30-30 WCF, 303 Brit., 7.62x39, 7.92x57 Mauser, .32 Long, 32 H&R Mag, 327 Fed Mag, 380 ACP. 9x19, 38 Spcl, 357 Mag, 38-55 Win, 41 Mag, 44 Spcl., 44 Mag, 45 Colt, 45 ACP, 454 Casull, 457 RB for ROA and 50-90 Sharps. Shooting .22 LR & 12 Gauge seldom and buying ammo for same.
I could only put up with looking at a potential wall hanger 1853 Enfield 3-band .577 about 3 weeks before I started working on making it shoot. After 150+ years of rust removed from inside barrel, and clogged flash hole re-drilled, success! Another rifle that is a blast to shoot!. It does take a little work when shooting to compensate for the bent barrel, but still batting 1000 with all rifles owned being shootable, and all part of the shooting rotation.
I have a model 94 win. 32Winchester special CPR Commemorative in the box with the original shipping carton that I have never shot... I also have a HI_POINT 9mm, 2 SKS's, 300 Savage, Ruger 10/22, M1 Carbine, 38/40 winchester, 30/30 Winchester, 30/30 Marlin, 44 Mag Ruger, AK47(parts only) and 4 hand guns that I have not fired yet.I got them for $500.00 when I bailed a cousin out of jail. He is now a convicted felon and the guns are mine.
Right now none. I had one and remedied the situation.

Do I have to include contender/ encore barrels?
2. One is a "Dragoon Era" 91/30 and the other is a .300 ACC BLK I just put together. Along the same lines, my Garand has only been to the range once. I need to remedy that.
Two a 514 Remington and a remington 700 3006
if you have 20 98 mausers do you have to shoot every one? or do you say the only differince is the crest on the receiver ring. so if i shot one or two i have shot them all ?

Only 1, that being a Winchester 1873 from 1892- 38-40. Passed down and never shot.
Winchester model '11 12 gauge shotgun; "The Widowmaker". That is the only gun I own that will never be fired!

I had a 303 Beretta 12ga that I won in 1990 from DU its numbered and signed. I didn't shoot it for nineteen years 4 years ago opening day of dove season I decided I don't collect guns, I shoot them, and took it hunting. Last night around 6:30pm I bought a Mosberg Maverick 12ga at 1:30pm today I shot it, Whata great gun for the price.

LOL how long is never?? i have shot all my guns in the last 18 months or so. and all but one have been shot in the last 2 months.
i think some have made it to 3 years between shots. but i usually buy guns i have ammo for. so a new gun gets tested ASAP.
after buying a 'new' derringer that would only go bang half the time. i like to know a new gun works.

This will be changing to ONE in the near future, when I finally take possession of the 7.35mm Carcano that my uncle gifted to me.
And as soon as I get to a range that will allow me to shoot rifles, I will be fixing THAT problem...
Two. a 303 jungle carbine, got it two years a go and a 410 shot gun that a friend donate in 2002.
Wow, I guess the number of unfired guns in general has been going up here. The more I think about it the more I think of that need a range trip. Some need ammo made up first.

I went on a collecting binge a few years ago and ended up with more than I could fire. After making several moves between getting divorced and changing duty stations; I still havn't been able to get out and shoot everything.
I have an AR lower, just waiting for an upper, does that count?
NYDB and you can't see my papers either!
