David choose 5 smooth stones because Goliath had 4 brothers that David defeated later on.

Zoril has it.
Now, did David hear in the camp that Goliath had four brothers or did he pick up those extra stones by revelation?

For the same reason my .45 has a seven round magazine. There is the possibility you will miss the first shot, and maybe the second.

I'm not sure he selected five but if you say he did why don't you tell me. Maybe he thought he might miss with the first four and the fifth one was to kill himself with?

The Bible doesn't tell us so we are left to speculate. I assume that he wanted a few more--just in case.

Just in case. Why not?
