Don't ever sell off your collection.
Your interests will shift back and forth over the years. Keeping what you have will prevent you from having to purchase again at higher prices later. Buy what's available, when it's available. Enjoy them all. |

If it came to just defending myself, all I need is a well made AR and G19.
I kind of enjoy shooting, tho, so that complicates things. |

Every single long gun I own that isn't an AR has wood furniture.
I have one Garand, but no carbine. 
I do have a BYF K98k, and a (F) No.4 Mk.1 though. |

I have 2 Garands, a carbine, and 2 M39's to start my collection |

JohnMcClane, nice line up of twentieth century arms. All you need is the 30-40 Krag and the 6 mm Lee (USN and USMC).. A Trapdoor carbine would be good too (US Volunteers still used them in the Spanish-American War).
