No 'Collection'. Just a Snake Slayer IV .45 colt / .410 plus a free .38/.357 barrel and scales Bond Arms sent me.
My Lawnmowing carry piece, with the .410 barrels, loaded with #4 birdshot, for the moles and voles & #4 Buck for the groundhogs.

I only have one and enjoy it very much. I do plan on adding the Cyclops in the future and possibly a 6” barrel for the one pictured.

Nice assortment of barrels. I generally remove the trigger guard because I like the look without it, but on the 6" barrel the trigger guard looks good.
What ever works for you. I elected to get the frame with the trigger guard for a bit more protection of the trigger.
Otherwise, with or without the trigger guard does not matter to me.

Actually may be selling my Bond Arms, yet I do greatly appreciate the versatility. Top center are barrel inserts that allow 22’s to be shot in the 45 Colt barrels. Mounted is the 9mm barrel and top right is a 4.25” 45 Colt and .410 barrel. Others are 327, 357, 45acp, and another 45 Colt barrel.

I gave my Rawhide .22, Roughneck 9mm, and my 3" .45/.410 barrel to my son. Then I picked up an extra barrel in .44 Special that just arrived today. The .44 special is my only Rough Series barrel now to match my Rowdy frame. As you can see, all my other barrels are shinier. Those are 2.5" .410 shells but that longer barrel will take 3".

I did not realize they had a .30 Carbine barrel, how is that to shoot? I am guessing that has a bit of KABOOM to it..

Considering the cost of commercial .30 Carbine ammunition, you'd be better off shooting 3" 000 buck .410 bore loads. You'd still get a satisfying 'KABOOM' but with 5 projectiles per barrel, more bang for the buck (pun intended)I did not realize they had a .30 Carbine barrel, how is that to shoot?

True but the .30 Carbine barrel is fun to have just because. Many of my Bond barrels are Just because. Mostly I think I would shoot my 4.25" .45 Colt/.410. I now have that plus the following 3" barrels:
.327 Federal Magnum
.30 Carbine
.357 Magnum
.44 Special
.45 ACP
I still want more. I got rid of my 2.5" 9mm when i gave it on the Roughneck frame it came with, to my son. also gave him my 3" .45/./410 barrel and my Rawhide .22. Now I want just more barrels and at the right price about any barrel will do but I am kind of stuck on having all 3" but for my 4.25" 45/410.

Nice box for the barrels. Homemade? If not, where can I get one?

@Targa already has a .45 / .410 barrel and wants a 45/70 barrel. I was just offering an opinion for the casual observer to this thread who may not have gone down the rabbit hole yet but is considering it. I have nothing against buying stuff because its fun, even if impractical. My biggest problem would be that if I had a barrel for my SSIV in a caliber that I had no other firearm for, I would end up getting the other firearm just because I had ammo for it.
Pretty much explains the PSL being in the safe along with my Mosins, in that I already had plenty of 7.62x54R

The box isn't homemade. It was a leftover box we had at the shop that came with a gun that was traded in. The inside was trash so I used wood furring strips and adhesive backed foam for the dividers.
