Now is the time to enjoy whatever you have. Sitting around the family room, watching old Westerns, with my wife and dogs, surrounded by some vintage old guns. Tonight, a sweet but humble little 20 gauge Trojan is on the coffee table.
Nothing needs to change hands at the moment. Just enjoying what I have, and thinking about the coming season.
Also, a 1953 vintage Winchester M94 sits next to the Trojan. The question is how do I put together a deer hunt for the M 94. There are a few classics in the safe that need to see time in the field.
Buying and selling guns is not a priority at the moment.

Not quite. The good investment would have been to have bought a lot prior and than sold it now to all the idiots looking for it.

Yeah fortunately I have plenty

Well these are certainly trying times, but as for me just play it as safe as I can, without going overboard, this virus will pass, Parker shotguns will still be for sale and there will still be folks buying them and selling them, as I am now. You think Parkers are not selling for much now, you could have bought a AAHE in the early seventies for under a thousand bucks, its a cyclical market, always has been, always will be Gary

Always looking for the next Parker without regard to what the next Economist or Politician has to say. If the Parkers are looking for me they are doing a poor job of late as we are not crossing paths. Seems there is always talk of guns coming to market for a variety reasons, most common being the owners age. I cannot say that I have witnessed that personally in the configurations that I desire. I do realize that I am shopping in pretty thin air. I believe that Reggie would agree he has the same issue.

Well, looking, tempted, and two at reasonable price, but I would then need another safe!!!!:shock:

I decided before this mess to take a break and enjoy the ones I have. I have said that before though. Actually, I need to catch up on some projects

Agreed Randy!
