I've seen some "Five Guns" videos on the youTuber but don't recall seeing it discussed here.

If you had to limit yourself to five firearms from those you already own, which would you choose and why? For those who own less than 5, it would be great to hear why you chose the one(s) you own.

I really don't have any logical reasoning or strategy for my choices. Mostly these are just my favorites:

1. Kahr K40 - my EDC and my favorite cartridge.
2. Browning Hi Power Mark3 40sw - prettiest pistol I own and again in my favorite 40 - turns 40 into marshmallows.
3. Kahr MK9 - my BUG and my back up cartridge in case I run out of 40.
4. Ruger 77/357 - only long gun on the list - it shoots 38sp and 357mag. 357 out of a long barrel packs a whollup!
5. Ruger SP101 357 snubbie - goes with the rifle and 357mag out of a revolver ain't chicken sh!t either.

OK, I showed you mine now show me yours...

OK scratch #3 because 9mm is wimpy and replace it with the Para 6.45 with the Bawanna grips. 45 is WAY more fun to shoot and I really could never part with those grips. I don't know what I was thinking with that first list.

Yeah, five just ain't in the cards. I like what all I got left, and will be building and playing again soon. Come and take them.

[mr surveyor]

I only listed the five I plan to take with me .... when I ride off into the sunset

[Jeremiah/Az]

I use more than 5 shotgun alone. No, I can't do it!

[mr surveyor]

I don't think it was a "what you use" question

[O'Dell]

Not me - I've pared down to fifteen. I might be able to lose two of those, but no more. Anyway, who says I have to do so?

[Barth]

I'm with O'Dell on this one.
Just five doesn't seem American to me.
Is this some poorly veiled Obummer rule or something?

Of my arsenal the three guns I carry the most are;
HK P2000SK 357 Sig
HK USP45 Tactical
S&W 342 ti 38 Special

After that things get dicey...
Wouldn't be happy giving up anything really.
I guess for the Zombie Apocalypse;
Bulgarian Арсенал АД SLR-106U 5.56mm Suchka
S&W 629-2 44 Magnum Mountain Gun

[K9_Two_Tone]

Wow, this is tough. Here are my current choices (with some fudging!):

S&W 686 SSR - .357 mag
Colt Gold Cup - 45ACP
Toss up between Kahr K9 or the CZ 75 Polished Stainless - 9mm (I can't decide, but the CZ will likely win out)
Marlin 1895 SBL - 45-70
Kimber 82 Clackamas - 22LR

I know that's more than 5, but both 9 milimeters are extremely accurate, feel great in the hand, and have never had a FTE or a FTB since I've owned them.

The S&W 686 SSR is amazing. Great trigger with a really crisp letoff, sexy looks, and super accurate. What more could you want?

Both the 45ACP and the 45-70 make big holes. Lot's of fun. The Gold Cup only had ONE FTB in the 25+ years I owned it.

Everyone has to own a 22LR rifle. The Kimber 82 has a fantastic trigger, is a joy to look at, and puts 5 shots into single hole at 50 yards.

Finally, if I was able to include airguns, I would choose the Feinwerkbau 124D - .177 cal. It can easily put 10 shots into a hole smaller than a dime at 25 yards.

That's all for now.
