That's an awesome picture man!
I wish I had the cash flow to get more guns. I only have two at the moment. I have a .22Mag and a 16Gague
The .22 is a marlin

and the 16 is an old (40's) Ithaca model 37

Neither of the pictures are actually mine The guns are home with my folks while I'm away at college. I really need to snap some pictures when I take them out next.
Dont sweat it. When I was your age I only had a few. The trick is to not sell them. Get what you need at first, after a while you are just getting ones you want. One or two a year add up over time. Its hard to go wrong with a .22 and a shotgun.
When I hunt deer, I use older Winchester Mods. 88 & 100 in .308
For Grouse, and Pheasant if lucky, its a Benelli, Montefeltro 12ga.
I plink w/ Ruger 10-22s and a MK II in .22lr
I protect my person w/ an S&W mod. 638, 38 spl. +P
I protect my home w/ a Remmie 870 Tactical, w 12ga. 3 in #4. Dont come uninvited!

Hope you bring those Kimbers to the gathering. Never shot one and would love to. As for me guns are my first love before blades. It just got so expensive to shoot I got more involved in the knife thing, way cheaper to take out and use that buying ammo. I only have a dozen guns or so and buy one a year with my bonus. I bought a Ruger LC9 with laser sighting this year. Great gun and cheap to shoot...I do prefer a larger caliber but you just can't beat te price of 9mm ammo.
