I know. It would have been a great time to evaluate my gun needs. There are some I need to reduce the number of and still a few out there I would still like to own.
My gun collection is made up of guns that have caught my eye for one reason or another. Never really concentrating on one particular maker, although I own more Parker’s than anything else.
I love the excitement of finding an unusual or high condition gun and purchasing it.
Then doing some research. Unfortunately Some of these guns go in the dark corners of our safes and stay. Although I try to rotate and use all of my shotguns while shooting Eurasian dove.
What is the last gun you bought that was nothing you needed or was even looking for?
You bought it even though you may never use it.
Mine was several months ago when I bought a high condition flat band model 94 made in 1947 in the worn, yet original box serialized to the gun.
I bought it immediately after it was brought into a friends shop by the family that owned it. I probably paid top dollar but how many 1947 94’s still have the original box?
At least that’s what I told myself.
