In the last year I've reduced my long gun total by half but doubled my handgun total, as a minimalist I own less than 12 guns total.
That has been my theory for 35 years. Now that I look back, I am really trying to subscribe to the "too short for regrets." Things I have sold include, a Butch Searcy double rifle with exhibition grade English walnut that I bought in his early years when I thought I wanted to go to Africa, a Dakota 76 with exhibition grade English walnut, a Mannlicher Schoenauer 1952 rifle in mint condition, a couple of Merkle shotguns, a pre-64 minty Winchester model 70 in .257 Roberts with a low four digit serial number, and the list goes on...Things that do not get shot get sold for things that might get shot. In the end life is too short to hold on to things I am not going to use and too short for regrets.... YMMV
