-2 side by side 12 ga's, 1 now
-1 410 sxs, gone
-6 semi auto 12 ga's, down to 1
-1 single shot 12 ga

-bought 15 centerfire rifles in the last year and a half, have bought and sold 20 before them.

I know a couple guys that have hundreds of rifles. One of them has a room that is 30x40 full of Winchesters.

I've been slowly pairing down my gun collection for a few minths now - hasn't worked so well!
I sell one and buy two!
At this point I think I have about 20 shotguns- but those are only the SXS's!

I haven't kept track. I could think it over and come up with a number, but it's over 50, for sure.

Buy one, work up a load, enjoy it for a bit, then trade it off or sell it.

I'm thinking I might sell a bunch of them off and keep only a select few. Then I can start over again...
