Now I just realized that every gun purchase has a extra cost of a new mold, but a greater decrease in TCO from reloading my own casts..........that means MORE GUNS!!!!
I need to change my answer, a few more just showed up to join the party. Pretty much lost track but will admit the Big Brown Truck brought me six new sets of handles and I'm not sure I'll have enough.

+2 this week. I think I may have a problem. There are still molds on this table that I haven't crossed off!

If this thread keeps going much longer I will have double of what I posted!
Really. Start a new poll so we can update our answer.
Problem with these old polls is I want to change my answer now. I have not counted in a while, but I need to move up a few brackets.
+2 more this week. Thanks Miha!

Not as many as I used to own. I don't own as many firearms as I used to own either. I got sick of mediocrity and decided to narrow down my playing field in an effort to become MORE proficient with what I have. Better to have one rifle and KNOW how to use it than have a hundred and not be able to run any of them well. That's just me though.
I'll be moving up a bracket in a few months at this rate. Need to quit doing research on mould sites and the GB threads, lol.

Is not enough an acceptable answer? I think I have 8 at the moment.

I pity the nun
I pity the one
Who tries to take my gun
According to another site friend....I am behind and don't have enough!!!!!
I have six (.38, .44, and .45 handgun and .375, .416, and .458 rifle) and I haven't started casting yet. I think I'm going to have a problem...
Got first one on 4/14/14 have 9 now counting the first. Friend dropped 6 Lyman and 2 RCBS on my desk last week. One is marked Ideal 62560 drops a 0.462 598gr FN. His dad loaded a 460 Rigby with it.

1 short of all I need!
6:.
I think I have 13 (I'm out of town on business and can't count them at the moment). Some are works of art, some are fairly old, some are pretty new, one is darn near junk. One is brass (the work of art from MiHec), some are steel, some are aluminum. I have cast with them all, and shot the boolits that were cast. I don't think I'll part with any of them soon.
