[QUOTE="John Klingenberg, post: 1585013, member: 107749"] Our love of firearms is usually pretty deep. At least in my case it is. I bought a lot of tired, worn guns and learned to gunsmith on them. They were all fixed up and now have value. This past summer while rearranging my shop the wife started asking about the stuff and figured I have 5 figures in reloading crap alone. Kind of shocked me because it sorta creeped up on me. Years of buying adds up! I have had to sell a gun that belonged to my dad when I was young and needed kids Christmas money. I regret that still some 30 years on. But as another poster said...if my kids sell something I hope they get what they want out of it. My hope is that I'm coherent enough to divy the stuff up prior to my demise. I'd hate to leave my family burdened with my stuff or get ripped off by a local jerk buyer. [/QUOTE]
