5 centerfires would only cover part of my .22 centerfire rifles and that is not near enough for the things I do..
And yet your Dad and your Grandfather probably owned one or two centerfires at the most. What a spoiled, materialistic day we live in
If you have disposable income, you need something to dispose it on and good quality firearms tend to retain their value.
There is always the question of whether something is wanted or needed.
I could get by with a dozen or so firearms of all types, but choose to have more than a dozen or so because I have enough disposable income to buy the material things that I want without depriving my family of anything that they need. When my oldest wanted to buy a new car, we sat down and ran the numbers to see if buying or leasing was the better choice. When she saw how much that new car would cost to buy or lease, maintain, and insure, she decided that driving her paid for 2008 Ford Escape Limited with 98K on the clock would be a better choice for her over the next 3 to 4 years.
