6 gun limit

I would have to move! If that was my limit: Ruger m77 in 338 win mag for the big stuff. Rem 700 in 30-06 for medium game. Win 70 in 243 win for small game. AR 15 in 223/5.56 for fun. Savage markII 22 lr for target and rabbits. And Mossberg 835 in 12 ga for birds.
What is the reasoning behind a 6 gun limit. Are the lawmakers afraid people will start committing crimes after they have 7 guns ? I can understand the thinking behind certain types of firearm bans ( though I don't think they work to deter crime) but a limit on the number of guns leaves me confused. Also is that limit per person or per family?
