Per ARFCOM 101

87 - Popularized by ARFCOM member MarkM as an answer to all stupid questions. "How many mags do I need? 87!" "How many rds of ammo should I have? 87!" "How many guns do you have? 87!" Its origin is often incorrectly attributed as "being one less than 88" (88 standing for HH - as H is the 8th letter of the alphabet - meaning 'Heil Hitler').

Did you think of that all by yourself? You read enough on this board and you pick up some of the vernacular. ULUL is one of my favorite threads.
