I have never thought of my gun purchasing as collecting so to speak. I have always looked for guns that were in good to very good original condition that fit me so I could shoot them at clays and hunting. Mostly 20 and 16 gauge. 12's in the beginning but I have narrowed down my 12 gauges. I originally looked for Ithaca Guns followed by Parkers. But my most recent purchase of my A Grade 20 gauge long barreled Fox has put me down the Fox rabbit hole. They are on my radar even as we speak
