Owning more then one gun? It's not like someone can shoot more then one at once, what's the danger in this? If there is no kids and your mentally sound, what's the problem in them not Being in a safe or have locks on da guns. Why do you/they even care?
I myself have a .22LR, 7.62 x 54r rifle, .380 compact, and .270 rifle
My .22LR is right next to my bed every night clip loaded. (Empty guns are no good) I never have to use the gun and I hope I never do. But if you attempt to rob/hurt/kill me ill kill you, or do my. Damned best to make sure neither of us see tomorrow if I can't live today.
Well start discussion.

Where do you live that you can't own more than one gun? Personally I don't own one and probably never will, but they are a useful tool for people who live in remote or otherwise dangerous places.

being of a minimalist mindset, i don't see the point in owning more guns than you actually need--so, how many guns do you actually need?
personally, i don't see me ever really needing more than a single rifle
not a rag on guns, but on mindless materialism in general

More places to keep them around the house, if you were to have your house broken into, and you felt you needed your rifle, would you rather have to run to one area to get it, or conveniently have another one closer by?

owning more than one gun...
protection and hunting.
hunting; depends on what you hunt. might need a shotgun, maybe a rifle, could even use a high powered hand gun.
protection; in your home or out and about?
lets say you have a big house and you do believe in guns, but you only have one. lets say you are in the back of the house when someone breaks in. lets say you have a new born up stairs. lets say this guy who broke in is high as shit on bath salts.
now what. the one gun you do own is in the front of the house. are you going to bolt to the front of the house and leave the stairs open? are you going to run up the stairs and secure yourself in the room with your newborn and no weapon? what if you do that, but in the heat of the moment you left the phone.
maybe you could take this intruder on. what if he has a gun?
now, lets say you only have one gun which you CC in most your daily life. lets say you had to run a bunch of errands and your wife and new born decided to stay home. same scenario as stated above, but now there are no guns and your wife is left alone to fight off this crazed bat salt takin ass hole.

definitely, it's highly possibly other people will have a use for more than one gun--but some folk simply get into the habit of collecting guns, essentially--which i don't really understand--but as i stated, i come from a minimalist mindset
that is why i asked, how many guns does rp actually need

to some people guns are a hobby. shooting and collecting. im sure there are a few things that you are into that myself and a few friends could laugh at and question all day. i wouldnt though cause im not one to judge and to each is your own... or however that saying goes.

2 guns are needed.
Pistol in the night stand.
Rifle elsewhere (we have a gun cabinet with a lot more than 1 rifle, but that's beside the point)

What's wrong with people collecting guns? It's not much different than anyone else who collects things.

i don't see the point in having more than what you actually use--as i said, minimalist
i also only have a single pair of pants 
i'm not hating on the folks who feel the need to collect--only stating i don't understand the mindset and asking them to put thought towards how much they actually need compared to how much they currently have

There's nothing wrong with people collecting guns.
It's the collecting part that skeeves me out. Like one time this chick I was dating, well her mother collected miniature shoes. No dolls or purpose or anything I'm still bemused by it.
Collecting is just another name for hoarding senseless things. I'm sure I collect something but nothing comes to mind as I've been actively avoiding such notions for a while.

no, i buy enough to last me a little while
i see what you are getting at, but the comparison is skewed--i am not buying a large amount of marijuana to collect--it will all be used in good time and i never purchase so much that it impedes me

man, if you actually use all your guns--good for you! you are not the person i am referring to when i say 'collector'
i have three harmonicas--but each is cut to a different tuning and has a role that the others cannot duplicate--i use them all consistently, but at different times--and i don't see it as a useless collection which differs from if i had several identically tuned harmonicas, but with minor aesthetic differences--they all play the same role functionally and thus, would be a collection in my eyes

i actually do know a few people that have a sick amount of guns. one dude has a HUGE house and has at least 2 guns that are hidden. i think for some people guns are like tattoos.
i do feel that shits about to hit the fan here real soon which means guns will be a necessity.

I wasn't aware this was a contest. And I never said you're not entitled to owning as many damn guns as you want. I also won't deny that having more than my suggested 2 guns can't be useful.
However there has to be an upper limit. What would you call a collection? Even in your scenario of defending wife/kids you'd only need 2-3 more to cover almost all your bases. So what about people with 30 guns or more? At some point adding another gun adds an arbitrarily low practical value, simply because you can't utilize them all. Aka at what point does a gun become just another doll shoe.
I currently own 2 guns. I don't own a handgun, which is my next purchase.

You can't beet the shit out of someone with a shoe like you can the butt of the rifle 
People need to realize different calabers have different uses also. 3 shotguns could be used for 3 different types of hunts(weight of the gun and accuracy and stopping power)
Also why target practice with a .270 when you could practice with a .22LR or .22 magnum for 5-15c a bullet because the .270 cost 1.10 a bullet with more recoil and loudness

Nothing's wrong with owning more than one gun. Only in the minds of gun-fearing pussies will you find thoughts like "hey that guy owns more than one gun, he must be a dangerous maniac".
Personally, I think everyone should know how to handle, disassemble, and operate a handgun and rifle. Safety and knowledge would go a long wa to reduce paranoia and fear.

I agree 100% I was just saying. .22 could kill as well as a .38 if its a good shot.
