Can't part with em

[Borngeechee]

Do you thin out your firearms when you want to purchase more? I can't think of one gun that I should get rid of and won't have a future or current purpose. I need more room lol.

For me it's far easier to make more room, than part with a firearm.

you'll lose as much money selling a couple firearms compared to sending cash on another modest sized safe.

exactly!! the only time I would consider selling a gun is if I was going to make a considerable profit...........I'll let my family sell the lot when I'm dead.

I buy and sell here and there.I like trying different guns and if they don't fit the bill for me away they go.Other than that I have a few that wont be going anywhere until they are handed down or I die.

I have many firearms that were bought strictly as collectibles.  I also have owned many firearms that, over the years, have become safe queens that don't get used anymore.  Many of these firearms have been sold eventually.  Sometimes to get money for new ones, sometimes simply to let them go.

 

I have never sold a firearm for less than I paid for it.  Some have sold for considerably more than I paid for them.  New firearms always go up in cost, so used ones don't go down in value unless they are not in good condition when sold.

 

I have a handful of firearms that have sentimental value and will probably never be sold, but the majority of them are simply tools to me and I have no hesitation about selling them if I no longer need them, or they are being upgraded with something better.

I can think of about a dozen or so that I'd really like to have back, and I don't own a single one that I regret buying.
