A poster who shall remain nameless is dreaming a dream. Anyone who has a major collection of double guns that his wife doesn't know how to handle is a fool if he still has them at the time of his death. My basic "dream" is to be present at my estate sale, living, breathing, and drinking from a glass. Unless we are taken unexpectedly by "the big one", we should be slowly selling this stuff off as we get less able to enjoy and use it. By age 75 or 80, I hope to be rid of all pump guns, automatic shotguns, all but a couple of handguns, and most of the bolt action rifles and falling blocks. By 80 or 85, I plan on owning no more than fifty or sixty double guns, mostly 28s and .410s, maybe a few 20s, since the big guns will be hard to handle. By 90, I plan to be dead, with my wife only saddled with the responsibility of getting rid of maybe forty or fifty smallbore double guns. Doesn't sound like a big problem to me!!
