Not quite

A collector had his out at the range with about 30 other wealthy full auto afficianados.

Also got to fire an FG42 and a Beretta M1918

I guess I misread the thread title at first and counted ones that I have
shot through others weapons

.22LR
.38Special
.357Mag
.40S&W
10mm
.45ACP
.308Win
12 gauge

 

[psyopspec]

I've always kept mine simple.

Handguns
.45
9mm

I've intended to consolidate all handguns to 9mm or .45, but whenever I'm about to take the plunge, I just can't stand letting go of the larger caliber for the warm fuzzy it gives me (1911's, HK USPc .45), or the smaller caliber for the high capacity, easy concealment, and ease of teaching new shooters (H&K USPf 9mm, Kahr PM9).

Rifles:
5.56
.243

The 5.56 is my plinker, .243 is for white tails. Both work for coyote/varmint species.

Shotgun:
12 gauge

I've only ever owned one, for home defense. When I hunt or shoot trap, I've always borrowed a more suitable shotgun, and it's always been a 12.

 

[Cool Hand Luke 22:36]

Handguns: .38 .357 and 9mm

Shotgun: 12 Ga: 00 Buck and 1oz. Rifled Slug

Rifle: 7.62x39

I don't see myself branching out any time soon. All of the guns on my to-buy list are covered by those cals... except maybe a 9mm pocket pistol of some sort...

[Guy B. Meredith]

.357 and seldom used .22 and 12 GA.

One reloading caliber--.357. Puts discount bulk purchases (10,000+) within my budget. Less investment in dies, plates, etc. Not into collecting other calibers yet.

 

[mfree]

If I include the revolver I have on layaway:

.22lr
9x19
7.62x25
.38spl/.357magnum

next planned purchase will be a .32H&R Magnum, which of course can also shoot .32S&W long and .32S&W and some .32ACP ifn's I'm lucky.
