Re: Consolidating Calibers- Good Idea or Bad?

Due to cost and space, I typically have as many rounds as I would like to have on hand, but they are spread over way to many calibers. I am considering consolidating all my handguns into 3 calibers (.38+, .380, .40) so that I can just keep a ton of rounds on hand that are interchangeable between all my handguns of that style.

There are quite a few folks on here with a bit more experience than I and would love to hear opinions on whether this is a good idea or not...Thanks!


Edit- Added Poll just for the heckuva it.
I voted "no opinion" because I like having guns of all calibers to "play with". Yep... I said "play with"...LOL. I love shooting and my adult toy of choice is GUNS... lots of them! As many as I can possibly accumulate! Big ones, small ones, rifles...shot guns...even BB guns will work.

Here is an idea if you are asking this question based on the upcoming "zombie apocolypse" :biggrinjester: . Stock up heavy on on one caliber of rifle ammo and one caliber of pistol ammo. If society breaks down, you will not be able to carry every weapon you own anyway. For the great 2012 melt down... :shock: ... I would recommend 5.56 and 9mm. :cool:
