...and already have an Bushy AR-15, a 12ga, a Ruger P94 DAO 9mm, a .357, and a Taurus .38
What would you buy and why? I need help deciding. I am leaning towards a Glock in .45 or ,.40 or another 9mm (common shells).

I'd get an AK. Right now, I'm thinking about getting a kit from K-VAR and building it on a milled receiver.

Someday, I'm going to get a Glock 30 (.45) or a Glock 33 (.40S&W, I think). Both are good stopping rounds and are compact for concealed carry.

An M1 Garand from CMP is another option.

I think the aforementioned M1 Garand would be an excellent addition to your collection and is a heck of a bargain for $500. You are really lacking long range capability. I would address that need before buying another handgun.

Some thoughts:

1911 (everyone should have at least 1)
bolt action .308 or 30-06 with scope
keltec p32 (pocket gun)
Ruger .22 pistol (thought everyone had one)
AK-47 (get em while you still can)
.450 marlin guide gun (lever action)
SigPro 2340 in .40 or .357 sig (cheap for a sig)

Actually if I were you I would trade in Ruger P94 and Taurus 38 and get one top of the line pistol in .45 like a Les Baer or Wilson Combat or a high end Kimber (Gold Combat) or Springfield TRP. $500 plus trade in of those 2 guns could get you one really sweet pistol. To me there is nothing better than a top of the line 1911 in handguns. I also believe that 1 great gun is better than a few mid-level guns. Also makes you a better shot if you just practice with 1 handgun. I shoot my Springfield TRP every week and I know that gun intimately and I can hit what I want with it (at many different ranges) because of all the time I invest in that gun.

Buy the Glock 30 in .45, sell the Ruger and Taurus, and use the money to buy a Blackhawk Tac-Vest. You'll still have$$ left to get cool shit like a GPS, compass, knife, and porn.

I have to say also, .22 rifle.  10/22 or maybe the romainian trainers?  
I like my 10/22 alot. Train with it alot, cause it is cheap to shoot. 500 rounds for $10.   Mags, $9-10 a peice.  Can hit things all day with it.

I would get a .308 rifle. Savage has some nice ones and you can also check pawn shops.
.223 is nice, but .308 are just as cheap to shoot with twice the power.

Get an SAR1, a few mags and a case of ammo.
Or, possibly, a Savage 10FP in 308.

I gotta go with the others on the AK selection.  I also noticed that you are lacking a .308 bolt action. You never know when you might need to reach out and touch something. Perhaps a Remington Model 7 or Savage Scout.  You have the handgun section covered well enough for now.

You need something with some range and power to round out your selection.

Savage heavy barrel tactical in .308. seems long range is the only thing you are missing, and the savage is inexpensive and accurate.

I appreciate all the input!!! If I do go with a .308 long gun, Which model? Remington 700, Winchester Model 7, Ruger 77, or Savage? Best Gun for the bucks?

In my opinion, you would be best off with a Savage 10FP Tactical in 308.  You will get more for your buck than you will with the others at $500.
