How long did it take you to obtain 35 ARs?

I bought my first AR15 back in 2004. I had been shooting M16s since 1978. After I bought this first AR, I started modifying it. The next thing I knew, I wanted another and another. Over the past 11 years, I have owned a little over four dozen ARs, built a little over three dozen of them, and sold/traded a few here and there for cash or other guns. I finally got to a point in 2013 that I said I was going to stop selling my ARs. So, I started selling and trading some of my 1911s that I no longer wanted or needed to acquire more ARs. The ARs are a large part of my overall collection (30%). My WWII collection (rifles and handguns) makes up about 20% and my other rifles and handguns make up the rest. So, essentially, I have built my AR collection up in 11 years and I am not done yet. I am getting ready to embark on another retro AR build (XM16E1). Just an FYI, up until October of 2012, I had 175 firearms in my collection. For now, I only have 111.
Well I have just the solution. I'll start a charity in my name that you can donate
any rifle, uppers, lowers, etc that you may not want. All proceeds and items go
to me for my use and enjoyment. You'll even get a thank you card or email.
Problem solved.
Only 111? Nice. Wow, I've filled 3 safes and I thought I had too many. I don't sell too many myself, but recently I realized I just don't have time to shoot, clean, practice, and keep ammo for them all. I want to spend more time on my other hobbies.
That said, you should have at least two of three ARs OP. Enjoy.
My problem is that I have limited time to shoot, and I have 4 ARs. I end up shooting the 11.5 BCM and the 16" SR15 the most, and the 6920 and BCM mid length get neglected because they don't do anything better than the other two. I constantly toy with the idea of selling the last two, but can't make up my mind.
