I am checking the post each day with anticipation that my renewed licence will arrive... and in the meantime I am trying to learn as much as I can and enjoying stalking the Trademe listings...

As a lefty, the options for secondhand rifles is slightly more limited, though I have been told that the right number of rifles is N+1 (where N = the number I currently own)...

I have been thinking about your equation;

So N+1 seems fine, for a single man. I think there may need to be some fine polishing for some other members who have families and so on and so forth.

Perhaps N+1 (X+3)(Y+8) where X = Wife and Y = Young. Yes this is an example of someone who has had three wives, obviously, they never learn.....

So N + X.Y+8X+3Y+24 Which is only a slightly more complicated proposition.

That equation seems entirely more appropriate and equitable to the complication of the purchase of a new firearm
