Sorry, Bill, but for the readers of your post the real question is: "When do we see and hear about the other three you've acquired?"

My guess is that your wife already knows about your addiction, and obviously you have the argument that your one time 4 gun holding has just returned. Hey, you did not increase your collection in numbers, it's just a kind of equilibrium.

It's like an old friend of mine told his wife, when she started cranking on him about his gun/shooting hobby.
He was an old Frenchman, and always started this type of response with index finger raised.
"Look", he said. "I don't go to bars, I don't chase women, I buy guns, and I shoot".
His lovely and understanding wife conceded the point.

Well with this acquisition of 4, the numbers are actually up to 6.
