That is totally correct. People buy multiple firearms for a variety of reasons. Personally, knowing that NATO rounds are the 9mm, .45acp, .223/5.56, .308/7.62 and 12ga shotgun, I have at least one of each. I have several for hunting, target shooting, self defense, and for the students I teach. Each has a different purpose. Then again, i don't think owning 20 guitars is a bad idea either.
