[QUOTE="nofearfactor, post: 2094458, member: 1535"] Been there done that. I have both my dad and my grandfathers weapons/gear collections. Both were Marines and ex-LEOs. My dad had all of my grandfathers stuff and when my dad died I got both mens collections, which were rather large and some stuff was a bit antiquated. My 3 older sibs are all southern California born and bred- 2 sisters are vegans, school teachers, very far to the left and anti gun, and an older brother who is a Berkley sociology professor who has ran his own martial arts schools since he was in highschool in the 70s but has an anti gun wife so I got lucky that they did not want anything to do with any of it. I got stuff both men had as adults and as kids. Most of the more modern hunting guns and gear that were not relics to be saved I either have got rid of or I am still using because I know my dad did alot of trading or whatever to get his main hunting rigs and gear, but there are pieces that I consider priceless and worthless at the same time because they didnt even use them they both collected the stuff for some reason so I couldnt ever sell or use any of it plus I have a son to leave it all to someday. I cant use any of it because it needs to all stay in good condition, but I can sure sit back and enjoy looking at it all. [/QUOTE]
