Realistically if I had to do it all over. Bear in mind that I like the variety of what I own beyond and probably more so then the practical tool/shooting aspect. That being said if I were to truely pair down....

- I probably would only own a .22 bolt action rifle and ditch the rest of the .22 stuff. 99% of my .22LR itch is met if not exceeded by my air guns.

- 9mm for my handgun(s). - Probably all HK for me. Walther for the wife. (P30, P2000x2, P2000sk, P99, P99c, PPS)

- 12 gauge pump gun

- A good .357/.38 revolver or two.

I could be very very happy with the above and my air gun collection.
