What NOT to sell
Going through the safe today trying to figure how to whittle down the inventory. Kinda interesting thing happened.
As I went down by manufacturer I found the only Beretta I wanted to keep was a 92FS; the only FN/Browning was an HP; only Colt a 9mm 1911; only CZ a 75B Omega; and two odd Stars (a 380 and M30) plus a Swedish M40 "Lahti."
Then I got to the S&Ws...and all of them are either iconic (39-2, 640, 5906); I carry (Shield); or it's my last wheel gun (19-5).
Same with the Walthers: icons (P1/P38, P4, P5); carry P99cAS or house gun (P99AS)
Sigs be the same, too good to part with or a carry piece.
And that's it. Everything else has already gone bye-bye (all the less expensive entry level guns ala Taurus) or I never even considered 'em in the first place: Springfield, Keltec, or Glock.
How do other folks decide what goes and what stays. I don't shoot all my pistols as much as I want....but even if I don't take the 39-2 to the range but once in a while....selling it just seems "wrong." And how can one not have a 226 if they're going to any Sigs at all....or a 320?
More range time....that's the answer. Maybe now that it's spring.
