I’ve got guns with choke tubes. I’ve got one gun I put ‘em in. There are guns that people buy for the same reason they might buy several ounces of gold-to hold, and dispose of when the market goes higher. Same with cars, or land, or, whatever. It isn’t me. My only point was if the gun isn’t a collector, the OP was on the right track. Go shoot it.

There are guys who collect stamps. Or art. Whatever.

Best,
Ted
