While I don't really see myself selling off any of my current firearms, I would say that I am not so attached to any of them, but one, that I would not be willing to sell or trade for an upgrade.

The one, well it's not a handgun, and it's not a particularly useful weapon. It's my .22 rifle that my dad gave me for my 18th birthday. Nothing special... it's a Taurus, but it was a special gift and one I will cherish and will hand down one day.

As for my other weapons... I don't buy or sell frequently, but I have accumulated 8 handguns. Some of them I wouldn't hesitate to sell or trade if I were looking to spare up some cash... the others... I wouldn't sell or trade them unless and until I had found something that better meets my changing needs.

I'm young, and my "calculations" will change over the years. Maybe a few more years down the road and I decide that .45 acp better meets my needs, or that concealment is no longer a top priority... or that I do or do not want/need a frame mounted thumb safety, etc.

The closest thing that I have to a keeper handgun is my Sig P239, because it has become a trusted companion for nearly two years. That said, I just bought a Glock 26 and have a holster that should be in my mailbox or on my front step when I get off work today. Is the Sig worried about being moved into the safe? No... it's not. It's a gun, it doesn't worry about anything. If time reveals that the Glock better meets my needs than the Sig, then perhaps one day I would find the Sig a new home and get myself another Glock. Or more likely I would keep the Sig AND get another Glock.
