I've been on a limited budget all my life. But I'm 75 years old and over the years I have acquired a number of different types of handguns. I probably only need one, but what fun is that. I own and shoot single action and double action revolvers, 1911's and several different brands of polymer striker-fired semi-autos. I shoot one to two days a week and remain proficient will all of them. Do I need them? Heck no, but it sure is fun shooting them.
