Quality over quantity? The change in my collection..

[Kingjoey]

I got cheap guns, I got expensive guns, I got rare guns, I got common guns. I don't discriminate, I accumulate

There is a lot to be said about where your guns go when you go.

My wife and I went to our lawyers just yesterday to have a trust updated in the case of our demise.
To make it simple , I have no one to leave my guns too.
So I have to decide who will dispose of my guns when I die.
I either find someone to will them too , or someone to be responsible for selling them at a fair market value , and the money goes to my estate.

I am thinking maybe I can just sell everything else and buy ammo.
Then I will go out and melt the barrels off all my guns.
Then it won't matter what happens to them.
My luck though , I will live another 10 years and be penniless and without a gun.

I need to see what the legal requirements are to ensure that when I kick the ol' bucket - that they construct a "Game of thrones" style throne out of my collection and bury me with it.

Only 16 guns? You gotta have a problem before coming here looking for solutions

Guy just came to an AA meeting and admitted he just dank his first wine cooler……ever.

lol, needing to get collection to under 500 units….

Got any R700 long actions in that pile of fun? Or is it all machineguns and Coca-Cola w cocaine?

I have had high end guns in the past (colt python, ed brown kobra). I guess i just need a few less tool type guns and a few more trophy type guns to make the collection feel right again...

Very sorry to hear about your situation, i once bought a ww2 rare mauser from man with cancer. He has been collecting his whole life, it was kind of a sad for the both of us. I still enjoy that gun to this day and its one i hope to never sell...

Hello,

I have about 16 guns and each one was bought with a reason in mind for that particular gun to use. However i have bought back ups for guns i use a lot that are still unfired/guns i don't exactly need then. Now i'm selling off a lot of guns i don't use to buy a colt python and nicer 1911 of some sort...
(even tough i have the cash to do it without selling anything off)

Would you cut your collection way down and focus on the higher end stuff you want? The funny thing is my first two handguns were a 1981 colt python and colt rail gun lol. I was too smart for my own good back then. The python was out of timing so i sold it off at a large profit but regretted it immensely. The colt rail gun was jamming and i didnt know to maintain 1911's with maintenance at certain round points so traded it off and told the guy about the issues...


Just feel like it might be a good idea to get a heirloom type pistol whether it be a python or a wilson combat cqb (i'm still getting a rail gun regaudless lol).. What would you guys do in my spot?

You don't have a lot of guns, you have some you're thinking of selling. You do you if it makes you happy.


Have a great, gun carryin', Kenpo day

I can think of a few that I have sold that I wish I had back. I like to keep quality and quantity I DO NOT discriminate. Not sure how many I even have, nor do I care really. I do know I have 3 more as of last Saturday thanks to RJ

The few I've sold I only wish I could get back so I could sell them for more $$ Oh, and I'm up one more because of RJ

I typically never buy a gun I plan to sell but my interests do change over the years and Ill sell something based on that but will always use the money to put back into something else. There are a couple I kinda wished I never sold but such as life. If I really wanted it back I could go on the hunt for one again. I typically like to buy stuff thats useful(carry piece, rifle, shotgun etc) then all others just fun to shoot. I tend to stick within my calibers I already own simply for ammo simplicity. Of course you have your favorites you always shoot but its nice to bust out something different for yourself or someone else to shoot as well.
