It may not be that many but I’ve accumulated 3 Glock 19s.

Can there be too many of the same basic gun?
I have 10 Ruger MK series pistols.
They are all slightly different, but mostly the same.
They are different barrel lengths and contours and 2 different grip angles, but the basic operation of them is the same.

How about bladed weapons?…My favorite is the M9 bayonet. Examples from all the contract manufactures.
Glock field knives: a set of twenty are kept for serving BBQ Tri-Tip on special occasions at social happenings.
I feel like I am being left out of these BBQ's.
I can bring my own Glock field knife if required.

Very nice collection of Rugers iconic line of 22 pistols. I've been fortunate to find deals on Colt Match Targets, a bunch of S&W 41 in different configs and lots of Hi Standard 22 match guns. They're so much fun to shoot.

I have those too.
No free pistols?
 
Platform-wise? 8 1911s, and way too many Mosins.

But if we're talking about literally the same gun, not just variants, I have 7 Norinco Type 54s, 4 CZ-82s, and 2 Walther PPs.
 
It may not be that many but I’ve accumulated 3 Glock 19s. I guess I could sell one and get some other platform but what I want is hard to come by. I haven’t gotten too much into milling and stippling so they are basically the same. They are a basic gun so it’s not like I have them to collect or anything.

Can there be too many of the same basic gun? Edit: Basic guns as in run of mill polymer frames guns like the Glocks or Xds or basic non special p320/p365 type guns

Well... a few current production polymer pistols is enough for me. However, for desirable out of production models and C&R Collectables I make an exception. Sulo.
