Personally, unless you are a collector, I think getting rid of guns, pairing it down to what you actually might need and a couple spares, is a good idea. Less confusion and more money for retirement.
I went through several "collector phases" but each time I ended up with a bunch of rare guns I was afraid to handle and didn't want to shoot a lot. Then I'd "get serious" and buy a bunch of modern stuff. Later I'd get nostalgic and would sell the modern stuff to buy prebans again. Each time I was losing money.
A couple of years ago I just became obsessed with retiring and decided to spend time evaluating all of my guns. In the end, I found the LMT ARs to be the best for my uses. I started selling everything off and investing the money in retirement accounts.
