I can see it as all sorts of people collect all sorts of things for their uniqueness or rarity such as an Indian motorcycle that is never ridden or a vintage Rolls Royce that is never driven or a Gibson guitar that is never played.

Some people just keep old rare guns for conversational pieces and the like. I have a collection of 2nd and 3rd generation Colt percussion revolvers that just sit in glass cases. I have the original box and all the paperwork. I'll never fire them or even cock them. smile
