I don’t use a lot of them regularly, or at all. I use my Canik, Rock Island 1911, and AR-15 for competitions every month. If I don’t use it, I don’t think about it very often. Like, my Mosin Nagant? That was a gift from my dad. I’ve shot it exactly once, and realized that 7.62x54mmR from a bolt action, stipper-clip-fed carbine that has a 10#, gritty trigger, and exceptionally poor iron sights is not a fun rifle to shoot. Now it’s hanging on a set of deer antlers that I inherited from my grandfather. The Winchester 1894? It’s over a century old, and while it’s still functional, .38-55 ammunition is somewhat difficult to find.
Just stuff like that. I don’t think about a lot of them very often, so counting them gets difficult.
Once I get my pistol instructor certification, I’ll probably be using my Ruger Mk IV mostly as a gun to let other people learn on. It’s .22LR, so it’s a very forgiving firearm.
At this point, I’m getting guns for a specific purpose. For instance, I want an SBR AR-15 and silencer mostly for doing PCSL. I plan on getting a CZ Shadow II Compact as a carry gun, and also using it for IDPA. I need (well, want) to get a Glock 17P to use as a training aid; it does all of the things that a regular Glock 17 does, but it’s incapable of firing.
How many pairs of underwear do you have? How many screwdrivers? After you pass 2 of something, it becomes something you don’t keep in mind. I know where all the guns I have that are not in the safe are around my house (no kids), but I have to take mental inventory to get a count of how many I own. Same thing with computers, rc cars, and other hobbies.
Why… why do you not know how many guns you have?

Hopefully that makes some kind of sense.

After a while numbers are meaningless.
