How many 1911's do I really need?

[SkullDaddy.45]

Ok, as I've said here many times, since my XDs as been missing in action, I've purchased a Colt combat elite a few months back as my EDC. May I say "LOVE IT". So much so that I have another just like it and yet another colt on layaway at Blythes. Ok my brothers buddy( who's getting a divorce) calls me. Says that he has a Colt 1911 combat elite for sale cheap! Did I mention that I love these guns? Anyways we meet at his place and the gun is in really great shape. I ask how much, he says $600 ! Now I'm going to buy this gun, but was wondering , does any one else have multiple guns that are the same? And how do I stop!!!

All of them; especially if they say Colt on the side.

ALL YOUR 1911 ARE BELONG TO ME

I'm afraid to count my 1911s and Hi Powers! Oh and CZs too.....

I gotta say I'm getting bit by the bug as well. The only problem is, the ones I want are not so cheap. My next is going to be a TRP operator. Who knows after that.

I hear ya!! My last 4 guns have been over my allowed limit. But every time I think I'm done , BAM, someone throws another 1911 at me! It's like crack. Oh yea, Dr. Midnight. Thanks to you I now have a Gold Cup on my list! lol

Yes, but I go with Les Baer. Lots of good 1911s now.

1 to carry.
1 in the gun safe.
1 in at the gunsmith.
1 off your property.

1 is to many and 10 arent enough.

OP, you can have as many as it takes to get a divorce.

No can do ! I'm retiring at the end of this year, I need her income to feed my addiction, , , oh and because I love her too!!!!

"at least one more" is the appropriate answer.
Flagged to feed my 1911 addiction. Looking for the cure...

The only cure....1 more

 

[Iroquois]

I have only one and it makes me very sad......

Nope, that's just a fix. I know that one well.

 

[churchmouse]

My point is there is no cure..........Hi, my name is churchmouse and I am an addict

 

[wtfd661]

OK someone has to say it,

I have a Springer RO un-fired in the box I might let go.....I am swooning over a Coonan I saw recently.

I have my first taste of 1912, and well I am hooked. I hope can hold out on buying another one.

It's not how many you need, it's how many can you afford to feed!
