I know this is hard for people not into the shooting sports, but for some people collecting weapons is like riding dirt bikes. You can argue that a dirt bike serves no purpose other than to tear up the environment, but it is not technically true. It serves a huge amusement function for those who love it. One can argue that people don't need amusement but that is a slippery slot encompassing a whole lot of activities including private aviation, car racing, parachuting, free climbing, etc.
