First thing first. There is no way I am going to be limited to only 5 handguns but in keeping with the OP's question I'll play.
First 2 would be in 22 LR, likely a 3 screw single six and a MK IV Target with a Volquartson trigger kit. Fun guns, not that the others aren't.
2 1911's in 9 mm and 45 ACP, Ruger or Taurus would be acceptable
1 357 magnum revolver, Smith or Dan Wesson with preference on the latter.
Wait a minute. I already have all of those. No fun in not finding new one's.
I will have to daydream about those for a while.

The difference between someone listing 5 Glocks and 5 1911’s is charity….
The Glock guy, knowing his gun will run flawlessly forever, has 4 guns he can pass out to friends and family.
The 1911 guy is hoping at least one of his guns works, but has 4 spare just in case.
ETA: Just kidding!!! A friendly dig between friends, y’all! I love my 1911 brothers!

Glock 48
Glock 42
Ruger SR-22
Will have to think a while between
Glock 20 or 29 ?
Ruger single six with 22 mag cylinder.
Thinking the single six because I have a nice H&R 22 mag single shot .

It's funny because none of the 1911's are going to run.
They're good at rusting.

I currently only have 2, a Blackhawk in 44 Special and Single Six in 22 LR/Magnum.
To that I'd add, GP100 in 357 Magnum, 1911A1 in 45 Automatic, Smith & Wesson 642 for deep concealment.

Really??? Only five? I would move somewhere that would allow me what I wanted. But five is better than one.

Let's see, I think I could do 5 handguns. The first 4 are easy.
1) Colt Government Model in .45 ACP. Definitely something modernized like my Competition model.
2) S&W Model 18 4" .22LR. You can't go wrong with a K-frame revolver if you want serious accuracy.
3) Walther PDP Compact 9x19mm. This one is new to me and still a work in progress, but I suspect I'm going to really like having a red dot on a pistol when all is said and done.
4) S&W Combat Masterpiece 4" .38 Special. Quintessential late-20th century American-handgun, easy to load for, easy to shoot well.
5) Something small enough to carry when the mood strikes? I've always had a soft spot for the Kel-Tec P-32 for this role, even though I've never owned one personally. A Glock 42 might also fit the bill, though it would be the largest pistol I could see filling this position. Alternatively I might be happy with one of the rare SIG P-230s in .32 ACP, just because my family had one in the 90s and it was sold off before I developed my affinity for .32 automatics and discovered how unusual the little pistol was.

I'd be happy with just one...and L-frame S&W with a 5" barrel, in .357, if such a thing was offered in a true left-hand model.
