If I don't like a gun, I'll sell or trade it. If I like a gun, I'll almost always keep it even if I don't shoot it much. I'm an accumulator, rather than a collector.

I recently sold my grandfathers craftsman table saw for $75.
I was tired of fighting it, upgrading it would vost as much as a better saw, and decided the valuable thing he left to me was enough knowledge to use the thing in the first place.

I sold one grandfathers Colt revolver and the others Savage auto. Both had finish issues taking them out of the really collectible category and both were for various reasons not guns I would shoot.
I've sold most of the guns I have bought. All but a few of the ones I have left I would sell if it wasn't such a pain. No way I'd be able to own and try the number of guns I have if I didn't sell/trade things I didn't shoot or like.

Mine are all shooters, some more than others. But, if I simply don't like the way I shoot them they're gone. They're tools, if you don't enjoy them, get rid of them.
