That is satisfying to hear you say!!
So I don't have to wait for you to kick the bucket for the Colt, right?

LOL ... Oh no ... I've hung myself with my own rope!! ROFLMAO!!
Tell you what, next time we go to California I'll stop by and drop her off ...
Thar she blows!
For my part, I agree with the sentiments posted here about not hanging onto stuff that has no real sentimental value. Looking through my firearm collection for example, I can only see one firearm I'd keep that was given to me by my parents as a graduation present; the rest I could sell w/o any qualms, should it come down to it.
I have my fathers bring back from WWII.
It'll be passed down for as many generations as I can impress the importance to.
Past that I've already gvien a ton of stuff away because of our move to cityfolks land.
My son & daughter now have a world class junk collection.
The day will come when I start parting out the arsenal.
For the most part I don't really care what happens to them after that.
I gave my son my old 57 Willy's jeep about six months ago.
He called me last night and asked if it would be okay to sell it.
I told him I don't care what he does with it, it's his now.

I did the same thing with an uncle's estate, telling his remaining sisters, nieces, and nephews when the auction would be so they could come bid on anything they wanted. They all knew any money spent would be coming back to them as they were all named heirs in the will. I was greatly surprised when I ended up being the only one to actually buy anything from the estate, mostly quilts from my aunt for my quilter wife.
^^This, and as for the Garand GC mentioned, some people have no interest or have an unreasonable fear in firearms.
I have my grandmother's spatula that I still use daily. I think about her every time I use it. It's not worth anything but it means something to me.
My grandparents weren't too fond of guns. My grandmother was in a couple of bank robberies back in the 30's. The first robbery was Pretty Boy Floyd and George Birdwell. The second robbery she was taken hostage and shot thru the chin and into her shoulder.
There's a book called "Tough Towns" and one of the chapters is about my grandmother and the robberies "The courage of Clara Aggas." Google books has it.

Drugs cost money, and it takes a lot of money to feed a habit.
