I am also looking at selling to consolidate. I've had as many as 30 semi automatics at once and most were common guns that can be easily replaced. I liked them because they were mine and when I bought it, it was my "fav" for a short time... until I found another I "had" to have. Lately I've been upgrading the quality of the guns I collect to cut the number back. For example, in the last year I sold 2 guns to buy a LNIB Kimber Gold Combat Stainless. I sold 2 other guns to buy a mint H&K P7, etc. I just put a Sig P238 on layaway and need to sell 2 to buy that one. When the new guns come out I like to wait 2 years before I buy a new one. Once I get the P238 I will want a Kimber Solo next. I already own a Kahr PM9, which I love, so I can't "justify" that move yet but may sell the PM9 to get the Kimber once all the kinks are worked out.
I'm selling and cutting back on the number of handguns I own but I am also using the funds to get "nicer" guns. I may sell 4 or 5 guns to get a nice Wilson Combat 1911 one day but the Kimber seems to have scratched that itch for now but who knows what tomorrow may bring. I have too many guns to shoot on a regular basis now but my goal is to get it to 12-15 really nice guns that I can shoot and enjoy for what they are. I don't like having non-heirlooms sitting in a safe, unusued, when I can sell them to upgrade my inventory and someone who will shoot it will get a very nice gun.
