An interesting thread (thanks, Craig). You can't go wrong if you acquire what you love (and keep it). There are folks in the next generation that have interests in guns from the past. Just not many. So Milton's question posed by a younger acquaintance of his needs a thoughtful answer. I wonder how well I'd do answering that?
