Here is an issue I am now dealing with. Over the last 40 years I have collected Parkers, L C Smiths, Lefevers, Ithicas..... At this point in my life when I do get to go out to hunt and shoot I always end up taking the ole favorite. Some of those collected firearms are good examples of safe "queens". They have not seen the light of day in 30 years. Now my problem is compounded by what should ultimately happen to them. Wife and daughters have no interest or any idea what to do with them in my absence. Over the last 2 years I have sold many of them and now have had a change in mind set. Why do I keep them stored away in a dark gun safe. Let someone else enjoy them. Still too hard to part with some of them. Not because of any value, but because what they represent in our heritage and history.
