Me either!
I bought an officer size 1911, in 9mm.. that’s how I downsize
Me either!
Ha. My wife and I have no one to pass them down to as all our assets will go to the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation (Our daughter was a Juv. diabetic). My guns would get jumbled up by the assessor and auction company (like they do). I have nephews but they wouldn't have the love and care I have for them. Plus, my sisters and brother in-laws have done very well as did their kids.
So I going to down size slowly. I have some friends I'm giving a couple of old collectors because they appreciate them. I'll sell a Kimber 45 and Springfield 9mm first. These are no dogs. Top shelf. Then I'll have to kind of pick and choose.
Proud of myself because I gave one of my 22 rifles to a friend in Georgia's son. That was so cool. His first gun and made me very happy. Had an old man I used to shoot 22's with from his porch but he passed recently. I'll really miss my friend but wanted to give him one of my Ruger 22/45's. I'll give one of those away but the one I've had since it was new, I'll keep.
As you can see.....this is hard and someday you'll know what I'm talking about....Ha.
Anyway, prayers for all of you and our country.
I have seen you and others mention doing something like this before. I have a record of all my guns. I like that idea, so this morning I started writing histories for all of mine.My guns are my most personal possessions. Every one I have has had some research done on them concerning the history of the firearm in a journal I keep.
I also have a champagne taste and a beer budget.
