I have always loved guns, and have always wanted to have a nice collection of guns. As of late I don't get to the range enough due to various reasons, work, personal life, etc. I am very seriously thinking about thinning my collection. But at the same time it's money already spent and guns usually do not go down in value when you find used guns at decent deals like I do.
If I was to thin my collection, what guns should I absolutely not get rid of for any reasons that you can give me. here is a list of my guns and what I paid for them. Let's say I wanted to keep six of these guns, which ones should I absolutely hang onto. And I don't know if this matters but I don't hunt nor do I shoot trap or skeet, nor can I carry ccw for personal defense.
