i was just taking a look, seeing how many guns most people keep around, curently i have 7, and am looking at atleast another 2, and i was wondering if that is natural, or if i'm just sick,

currently i've got a sl-68, an smg-60, both stock, also i have a tippman pro-carbine w/ 16"armson stealth, and butt stock, i've got a spyder tl with tons of upgrades, a stock A-5 (tippmann) an AT-85, and of course my main gun, my RT-Pro, i use in tourneys and such, i'm looking to get a emag extreme, (once they become available in this country) and a F-5 cocker from sandridge paintball, but my pro will still be my main gun,

LOL He who dies with the most toys is no more a winner than he who dies with NO toys. ;) You can’t take any of them with you, so it should be about what you do while living, not how much you have when you DIE. :D Personally, if I work it right, I will have nothing when I die. All that I own will be given to my family and friends.
Oh... we only have 3 markers at our house at this time.... see link in profile, it actually shows all 3.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with a gun collection. I have 4 mags setup and one lying around that i haven't decided how i want to set it up. Also have 2 cockers and a carbine. Somewhere i have a sl-68 but i really don't count that. I want to start my collection now so in a few years, i'll have some guns worth owning.

I have every marker I ever purchased (in my 13 or 14 years of paintball) still in my possession. That means that I have two (2) markers. I only buy a new marker when I think it will be an improvement over what I have...that has only happened once.
Of course, I have an E-Mag Extreme on order, so I will soon increase the number of markers I own by 50%.

I'm gunless right now, technically. My gun is for sale at my local store. So right now, I have nothing to hold and cherish :( . But soon, I will hopefully be the proud owner of a Blue GZ Timmy, Halo B, Clear Warp, PTP Timmy Warp Adapter, and a 68 45 Crossfire. I have, at my house, just a Red Warp and Standard Revvy. Even my Crossfire is getting repaired. Oh well, the future will be nice.

LMAO. NO! I'm not a distributor or similar.
That's my personal collection... :eek:

And the collection may be increased by something.

realistically you really don't need more then 5 and that's pushing it. But who says you can't have more, I say if you would like a new gun and you can afford it, by all meens buy it.

i think you're thinking of the pog forum MM
well anyways
i get to do it again :)
i have a new gun to add anyway:
my beautiful new palmer typhoon
warp, rev, 68 4500 freeflow tank, dropzone3 drop
classic mag lx, intelliframe(i put the whole setup off my 'phoon on this when i want to use it...)otherwise it goes airstock and remote
at85: bipod, mini 14 folding stock, combat sling, sniper grip
ok i guess i can count in my tippman prolite...though i am selling it to a friend(it was my first gun so i must sell it to someone i trust)
although there are a ton of other guns i'd love to own...
a freeflow, an emag, a nasty typhoon, an at-10, an at-16...
anyway although i could probably keep buying and buying, there are other things besides paintball(i can just imagine the look of shock on your faces :P )
anywho it's hard enough to justify 3...one tourney, one tourney backup, one outdoor rec(full auto)

Dragoon,
Notice how the E-Mag "dwarfs" the rest of your collection.:D

It also gets the most use.

Black Emag with warp and 4500 Armageddon
Racegun Cocker built on 2002 vert body.
Black vert feed Shocker with blade trigger, delrin bolt and 88Ci max-flo
Classic Intimidator with Warpfeed
Black/unmilled AKA Viking with 4500 Armageddon and HALO B(upgrade)
ReTro 'mag with warp and warp body
Mini-mag set up or Co2
99 Autococker - nothing stock except the body
Bushmaster (clone) pump with Line SI m-16 frame

For me it is a sickness :) Excluding the pumps I've spent $7850 in the last 4 years on guns. This doesn't include all if the extra parts and gear and loaders I've bought.
This is the first time I've added up the value of the guns - scary!

I was up to 14, but I recently started selling some. I've gotten rid of 2 spyders, a ptenforcer, a splatmatic xj40, a maverick, and a tigershark. What I have left:
Black H/R Minimag
Black W/L Minimag
Black Fixed barrel Micromag
Rainmaker
Autococker
PMI 1
Stingray
Talon
I'm hoping to sell my W/L Minimag, and MAYBE my Autococker (it'll take some time on the field before I make that decision). The Talon is in the middle of a project, and the Stingray is a possibility for the auction block. I just need my paintball hobby to help fuel my paintball hobby. :)
