I've bought, sold, and traded guns for 40+yrs.
There are maybe three or four that will be kept forever.
Regret selling one or two but most had their time and were traded on.
Honestly I enjoy the tinkering getting them to run right thing the most.

That explains your love for 1911s....
You don't like modding your guns at all right?

I keep an updated inventory, including totaling the values. Better half KNOWS better than to say a word - not only does she love guns almost as much as I do, but I also keep an inventory of her jewelry. Y'all have ANY idea what a 300-ct emerald is worth???
I don't give her any crap about any shoes or clothes she buys, she treats me likewise about guns.
Same. I insert pics of each gun in the spreadsheet, too. Pic of SN, and overall pic, as well as pic of original box or case if I have it showing SN.
Every time I update the spreadsheet, including adding or removing guns, I email a copy to myself so I can easily recover it if anything happens.
Worth? Or how much you paid for it?I keep an updated inventory, including totaling the values. Better half KNOWS better than to say a word - not only does she love guns almost as much as I do, but I also keep an inventory of her jewelry. Y'all have ANY idea what a 300-ct emerald is worth???
You know women - funny thing is, bought it at an auction. A jeweler that had screwed up and missed that it was being sold offered her (literally) 50 times what we paid for it. Told her it was up to her - I bought it for her, so she could do whatever she wished. Man - did *I* make points that day! She kept it, and I get to remind her of it whenever she talks about me buying another gun......lol
You didn't say modding. You said getting them to run right.

Lol... I honestly think that's better than sitting on a rainbow butt cushion, holding my besty's hand, and licking a tupperware .380

One can often find good deals at an auction, but having worked with jewelry I know the mark up on jewelry.
Oh, yeah - it's crazy!! That's why we buy most of ours at auctions. But, since it was a jeweler that made the offer to buy the stone, I figgered we were "into it" at a pretty decent price.....lol
Certainly, either that or a very bad jeweler.

Out of the 8 or so 1911’s you brought out last weekend, how many malfunctions were there? Was it zero or nada or nil? Refresh my memory since I ran a few mags through each and got distracted by the childlike ease of putting rounds on target.

Oh wait..…..that's right. There weren't any.
Worry not Brother.
Let the immoral heathens pontificate ignorance, spewing their pablum of untruths.
For they know not what they speak.
We, the followers of the One True Faith, know The Force is with us.
Lo, though you may walk through the valley of the polymer frame, fear no plastic, for the Combat Commander is with you.
