Unless you absolutely need the cash there is no sense selling what you have because you just buy more later on except it is more expensive.
Nice collection.

My own thoughts on the matter.

I'm not a dealer,---- I am a collector. My stuff will not go up for sale until
it's time for me go to that big show in the sky.

I have only sold a couple pieces (and regretted it) and have traded a couple pieces
ith other collectors.

Well said!!!!
I feel exactly the same way. I buy to keep not to sell.

I will add that I love that 08!!!!!!!Just makes for a badass display and focal point in a collection.

I do have one question about your collection. In the second pic down, on the rifle rack. Near the wall, What is that black tube that tappers at the end?

Those you see are subjective the close one on the box and one on the floor (that was horribly filthy stunk so I washed in borax) I like them for me they are cottage industry others may disagree. Thank you I'll post what I have in a thread.
