Technically not the same gun buy close enough...

Ruger SR9 (2-tone)
Ruger SR9c (all black)

Mainly because they share the same magazines, firing pins, springs, etc.
...and since I have spare parts, might as well have spare parts for 2 pistols.

Currently eyeing a GP100 3", mainly because I already have a 6". I regret getting the SS 6" though, since the 3" only comes in SS.

If you compete you've got to have two to deal with down time and failure at a match. And I have two identical HD/SD guns because once the roster shrinks to zero I'd be SOL.

Here's a picture of someone else's collection posted on the Hi-Point forum, your collection reminded me of it

These are various models in the evolution of the Hi-Point line . . with nickel plated slides

I think you have to be logged into the hipoint forum to see that picture, the rest of us can't see it

Pistols with duplicates: a few 17s, a few 19s, a few VP9s and a couple of P320s. It's probably overkill but for whatever platform I ultimately decide to carry long term I'll have a carry gun that will be carried a lot and shot rarely, a gun shot a lot and carried rarely and a backup.

Yep, I have duplicates, triplicates and sometimes more of several different firearms for various reason. Here are three of the same gun that I bought at the same time:



I've purchased two Rem 700s in the same DROS before. One was a LH BDL in .270 for hunting and the other was a SPS for precision shooting.

I have more than a few ARs and AKs along with pairs of nylon 66s, COPs, single sixes, '94s, K31s, 10-22s, 11-48s, 500s, etc.

I have a Beretta 92FS and a 92G-SD. I liked my FS so much I bought the "G" version which has several upgrades to it. Now if we want to talk about multiple long guns and AR-15's...

YES That's exactly where I'm at except I haven't yet gotten my 92G-SD, but it is absolutely on the next-to-buy list!

I actually wanted to see it. Most people wouldn't care but I believe thise nickle models are rare. I have 4 HiPoint products but all are different. I really couldn't pass up the 45 carbine for $150 or the Haskell pre HiPoint 45 for $100. Both work fine.

Hi-points have a purpose... if it wasn't for the 1-in-30 thing, I'd probably go buy a dozen and toss one in each of my backpacks just to be sure I always have "something". There's nothing really wrong with them, other than being butt ugly.

I do not own any, nor have I ever fired one. However, if you research the story behind how Hi-Point came to be and it's business philosophy, you may find it an interesting read.

I already have a Kimber Custom II, and won another one in a NRA fundraiser. These will probably go to the grandsons when they get older. Also, have a couple of 10/22s for them now...

Yep! Glock 21 for me and the wife (she also wanted it). Pretty new at this gun ownership, so I'm sure there'll be more doubles for me and my wife.

I've got at least two of everything that I like. Generally, I'll buy something, and if I think it is a good gun, I'll buy another to keep stored away. Sometimes more than one more. Anyone who has lived through the '80s and kicked themselves for not doubling up on the guns that they loved and disappeared from the marketplace will understand my hoarder mentality.

If you count all US property marked 1911-A1's as the same even if they are by different manufacturers, then I have three that are identical.

I also have three S&W Combat Masterpieces, dunno why, it just seemed to work out that way

I used to have two Glock 19's. I had them specifically as HD guns but I've since sold the spare. I come to realize that I don't need a spare, the one gun will do.

You're gonna like the "G", it is even more accurate than an FS. A little pricey though. I spoke with a Beretta factory rep and she said they were very popular and she hoped that they would continue that model. I was going to buy 2 of them, one to put away but I couldn't find a second one at the same price ($1,050.00). Get one while they are still around.

I just bought their carbine in 40 SW. For $335 with a red dot sight how can I go wrong? I have plenty of 40 in stock already. This will be my beater plinking rifle. I wanted a rifle that I could shoot pistol ammo with and building one on an AR platform would cost more.

More than one 1911. More than one AR. More than one 10/22. But each is very different from the next.

I know you all are high rollers living large but poor people deserve to be able to exercise their 2A rights as well and a HiPoint is a good choice for some of those people.

2 Mossberg 500s....one tactical, one not
2 Ruger 10/22s....why not?
Would gladly have other duplicates, but I always seem to find something new I need
