Oh I'm still keeping several of my firearms. Just narrowing down the bunch
My collection isn’t extensive by any means. I am just trying to fill all of my hunting “wants” and needs. This will be a longer range hog/coyote gun. My AR-15 is mostly for varmints and self defense (protecting the range, not the house itself), I have a 700 30-06 that has been by my side since the beginning and has never let me down. I have killed pretty much every single bear, deer, elk, etc with that rifle. I have a 50 cal inline black powder for muzzle loader season, a 12g and 20g shogun for different birds/Turkey, a Smith 626 .44 mag, which was my sidearm for bear and deer season, and finall, a few semiautomatic handguns that I use for carry or home defense. Then I have a Youth 10/22 for my girls to learn to shoot and teach them firearm safety, and a Savage .22 mag for plinking and squirrel/varmint.
I really don’t feel like any of my firearms collect dust (Save for my black powder, because I don’t go muzzleloader any longer). Each has a purpose and I feel like I have just the right amount of firearms now.
My Carry gun is a G43 with 2 Round mag extension, making it an extremely small and light 8+1 and very versatile too. I sold two of my other carry guns because after getting the 43, I don’t even consider carrying them anymore because of how easy the 43 is to carry.
