In response to your rant - some people can afford to have several
firearms for a variety of purposes. I have a few .357 Magnums and enjoy
firing them, too. My Ruger SP101 is a great self-defense firearm and I
prefer it over the J-frames. There's a lot of personal preference when
it comes to guns and different calibers. I'm lucky enough that I no
longer have to sell a gun in order to buy a new gun.

I have an old trooper that I got right after the OM. Both are pretty
much twins except the OM has a bull barrel and the trooper has the
longer .357 cylinder. Both stay in the safe pretty much all the time.
My go to house gun is the Ruger KP90 and I have the Barretta in a
quick access compartment near the front door just in case something
does come up and I want it in my pocket. My 1897 and M1A are in a
quick open, locked compartment in the bedroom in case the philistines
are really coming over the hill.
For the most parts I still think of these as "safes" since they are
hard to get into and pretty hard to find.
That "building" stuff really comes in handy if you want to lose a few
cubic feet in a place that is hard to triangulate on. ;-)
