Right now I have about 75 – if you count the one loaned out to a Marine buddy, boxes of parts with a receiver, assembled and waiting on a part or two to finish it up, etc. But I also have a short wish list of about 8 or 10 which are either a) I would buy up in a heartbeat if I found it at a normal price, or b) figuring out the options I really want before I put an order in.
.
I expect I will have about 100 by the time I retire and plan to enjoy my retirement slowly completing the ones I really like, selling off the ones I bought in duplicate when I saw good deals, and shooting the ones I have left. Depending on the level of interest either of my sons may have I might be selling off the NFA items just to ensure we get a good price for them – I doubt anybody in my family would know how to get a good price for those if I croaked before selling them.
