    A rowboat is not a ship. A dozen rowboats do not constitute a fleet. And if you can put all your guns in the back of your mom's station wagon, then you don't own an arsenal.

    At best, that's a "battery". An "arsenal" is a community facility for the storage of arms and ammo in sufficient quantity for an effective battle unit, more than platoon size. Maybe enough for 1,000 men.

    It's the difference between a garage and a Ford manufacturing plant. One is for the use of one or a few people, the other is an industrial facility. Nobody in their right mind counts guns as "1,2,3, arsenal."

    If that's an arsenal, then we'd need a new word to describe the place where the 101st Airborne stores its weapons.

    I love how anyone who has more than one gun and 50 rds has an "arsenal". If the Lancaster Intelligencer considers that an arsenal, then they should realize that a large portion of their county's resident likely have an arsenal

    If you collect cars and have 80 of them that is not against the law but if you collect guns and have 80 of them is something wrong with that?
