[QUOTE="SgtMojo67, post: 1583993, member: 15160"] this is my view......I'm a veteran and I LOVE military type firearms for instance my dad gave me a pre WWI Colt 1911. It's not a family heirloom, but I'm a fan of military weaponry. I inherited a Browning Sweet 16 that my great grandfather won in a turkey shoot LONG time ago. Yeah it's a nice gun, BUT it is not my type of firearm. So this is where my thinking comes in, if I can sell/trade for money to buy another classic (M14, M1 Garand, etc...) then it's a win/win situation. The Browning will go to someone who will better appreciate it and I will get a firearm that I will appreciate. Both of my boys LOVE guns/military stuff. If I were to keep the shotgun and pass it along, it would get sold for who knows what. If I pass along a M1A/M1 Garand, my boys WILL appreciate them.....Just my opinion.....Kind of like me selling my sports stuff here last week. I saved it for 25+ years for my kids. They didn't want it so I sold it all and bought a gun to pass along in the future.... [/QUOTE]
