Are guns forever?

[Ala Dan]

Fact: Not Bragging

Since joining forces within firearms sales, I now have more guns than I have
ever owned at any one time. With the rising crime rate, I do think that guns
will remain a part of my eveyday lifestyle; especially after having an LEO
background~!

I have several guns. I sell and trade. When I find an outstanding gun that I want to keep I do a lot of customizing on it such as action job, grips, engraving and ect. Those guns I intend to keep and pass on to my Grandchildren.

I have no intention of selling any guns.. even the 7x57 mauser with the crappy Ruger sub contract barrel from the 70's and a wandering zero that is currently annoying me to no end.

So far the only thing that seems to last longer than my guns are my camera lenses (Camera bodies... pfffft, but the lenses keep going).

Diamonds are forever....no...no..They leave when she leave's..thankfully.but...GUNS ARE FOREVER...Never let them go.....

Some guns I'll never part with, some guns I wish I'd never bought.

Guns like my Smith 686 Customs Service revolver I'll keep, as well as my 640 Centennial that was my first CCW gun. Others like my AK, well it's a tool and I have no real feelings for it.

My S&W 10-4 that was made before I was even born will be with me till I pass it on to my grandson, same with my glock 32.

yes and no. i find that guns fall into one of those 2 catagoies for me: sentimental and forever, or i have absolutley feelings for them. not to say i dont enjoy shooting some of the guns that i know i wont keep forever, but they just dont spark me the same way. anything that has been in the family (even fairly cheap stuff that belonged to my dad) automatically make it into the forever catagory. somtimes ill trade for/find a good deal on something however, and that rifle may find its way out of the collection with no hard feelings.

It's hard to wear out a quality firearm, so if you choose well they should last you a lifetime.

My CZ rifles, S&W combat magnum will stay with me till the day I die. My Glock _could_ be sold, but in 20,000 rounds and seven years, I haven't found a gun to replace it.
My high end 1911 (M5 IPSC) could only be replaced by an even higher quality one. Not likely on my budget.
If you buy well so you are satisfied with it as both a tool and as a piece of art, then it's a keeper.

There are certain guns I will never get rid of, some that are negotiable. I would never sell my USP or my galil.
