My approach is if I like it I buy it. Even beat up guns have found their way home. I used to think they would be useful for parts but I learned how to completely disassemble and repair or replace a part here and there. My only concern is whether or not the gun is safe to shoot. Reselling has not been a factor. I sold exactly two Parker’s one a break even proposition and one tripled but hey I bought it for 90$ and a young guy just wanted the unshootable relic to hang on a wall. My problem is they keep coming home and never leave. Executor can handle that when it’s time. I do have some poor restocks and some poor original stocks but they all shoot and a dead bird didn’t care or even know how poor the wood was. Everyone is different and this approach has been a perfect fit for me in my pursuit of happiness and long tailed roosters. Cheers Jack
