I've twice sold a firearm when I needed money. Neither were something sentimentally valued, or that I used frequently. My only regret is that with one, I sold it below market as I was in a hurry.
On another occasion, after a move, I decided to thin the herd, as I realized that out of a dozen rifles, 9 I hadn't fired in more than a year. So I sold and gifted 10 rifles, and I'm pretty much at an inventory that isn't a burden storage/ maintenance wise, and that I actually use.
I've got a full size and an Officer Model 1911, that I rotate in daily carry, two AR 15 uppers and 3 lowers that I'll eventually add an upper and sell or give one away, and a Savage Model 10 BVSS that I'm pretty fond of and shoot regularly. I've got a KelTec SUB2K (GLOCK19) that's fun and handy and cheap to shoot.
I've actually thinned down my ammo stock to about a year and a half supply, and another years worth of reloading inventory. I usually replace what I shoot as I go along, sometimes drawing down when prices go high ( like lately ) and replace when they drop ( as they usually do ).
