OK guys this is a serious thought I'm having. I'm downsizing everything I own and want to get down to only 5 Glocks. My thoughts are.
1= G42. ( Lightest CC pistol )..Mine are reliable and 380 acp is the smallest / lightest caliber I own.
2= G26. ( Next in line CC pistol ). With the 10 round flush mags they make a great CC pistol. Can also bump to 12 rd mags.
3= G23. ( The perfect belt gun ). I really like the 40cal in the compact. If I could just open carry every day this would probably be all I needed.
4= G17. ( Several reasons ). My wife does not like shooting the G-42,26 or 23. She has no problems with the 17 and I like the capacity. 10 mil is definitely out for her
5= G29SF (BIG TEETH THUMPER). When I'm hiking or camping in Northern PA. its on my belt.
So I think I'll have all my bases covered with these 5.
1= I really like the lightness and size of the G42. Believe it or not its my mouse gun or backup. I won't drop below 380
2= If I need to go concealed with more power the G26 rides nice. 10 rounds of nine with another reload.
3= My hand fits the gen3 23 like it was custom molded for me. I've tried IWB with the compacts but the sub-compacts are my limit.
4= I shoot this really well and so does the wife.
5= 10 mil is expensive but hits like a 41mag. I own and have carried 44 mag in the woods. The 29SF was just an option at first. Then I carried it all day.
I know as a minimalist you could get by with less. Only owning 5 Glocks in 4 calibers is ME being a minimalist. Anything I'm missing?

EDIT- I am simply downsizing. Nothing more / nothing less.
