I'm a big gun fan, probably due to my prior military background, but I'm just curious as to what's in everybody's arsenal and what you like about it?

I currently own 3 firearms

Ar-15
Glock 23
Mossberg 500

These are my 3 combat arms. I'm looking into getting an AK type of rifle next because I could always use something bigger than my current .223.

Ar-15 is awesome to me because I know it in and out. Plus the bullets are common everywhere, so it makes it easy to purchase ammo consistently.
Glock 23 is a .40 cal compact handgun. It feels great in my hand, and I haven't had any malfunctions yet with my Glock. Fires everytime, all the time.
Mossberg 500 is a great shotgun used by all US Military branches. I bought it 2nd hand for 150 bucks and haven't looked back.

Sounds like you've got most of your bases covered.
If you want something bigger than 5.56, you might look into an AR in 7.62. Same platform you're trained on and used to, lots more punch than an aks 7.62x39.

Styer M9 - a seriously under rated pistol. I was a glock man until I got ahold of this. I went 9mm over .40 because it would be easier for my wife to shoot.
Stevens .12 gauge (bought out by savage in the 1920's)
SKS 7.62x39

Is your AR rated for .556 too or just .223?

I used to have the Bulgarian SLR as well. Loved it, but I ended up selling it to buy the Styer.
