[QUOTE="Hangfire, post: 3467651, member: 27673"] My 47 year old son from my first marriage and I (he lives in Georgia) aren't all that close because his mom and I split when he was around three then I bounced around overseas several years and lost touch with him and his mom for about 14 years so when you come right down to it my son and I don't really know each other......the last time I saw him and met his wife and my three grandkids for the first time (the oldest was already in his last year of high school) was around 2007. I showed him several of my guns during his day and a half visit and told him that when I pass that my current wife (of 44+ years) had already been instructed by me to give him all of my guns and he told me thanks anyway but that he had a 30-06 rifle, 12 ga. shotgun, .22 rifle for small game and plinking, a .357 revolver and a 9mm semi auto and that was all he wanted or needed. My current and I never had kids by choice so now knowing after talking to my son that I had no heirs to leave my guns to I began slowly selling things off when I retired in 2015.....the higher dollar guns were sold first like my two Pythons, Colt Sauer rifles, Browning shotguns, Colt SAA handguns, Colt 1911's, wood presentation boxed S & W's etc. I've still got a double handful of nice guns left but nothing overly expensive or that I'd call rare or collectable.....surprisingly even though I wanted them when I bought them none the guns I sold are really missed all that much. What I have left are my "keepers" and the wife will just have to dispose of them the best she can when I'm gone and after she passes our wills designate all of our remaining assets get split 50-50 between two different local animal organizations.
