I don't buy anything with the intention of not shooting it. But, I have a fair amount. Takes something really special to get my excitement levels up, so sometimes it takes a while to get it out. Especially if it was a novelty purchase.
To me its crazy to not shoot your guns. That's missing out on half of the fun of owning them. Being busy is one thing, but not shooting them just cause to me is crazy. Ymmv
Not a collector, more of an accumulator. I buy what takes my fancy at the moment so while I have some remaing unfired they usually are awaiting a missing or broken bit.
With some models, it's just the thrill of the "hunt" and subsequent acquisition.
I had one. An 8-3/8" barrel Model 29 in the case. It went to a better home right after I joined this site. I dont plan on buying another non-shooter.
This!!! I have 3 or 4 that I have not shot YET. Just haven’t got to ‘em.
OP, I have guns and have had guns that I have not shot. Others, like my carry piece, do get shot as often as possible. I don't consider anyone crazy for shooting the guns they purchase, and I don't find it crazy not to shoot some of the guns that are purchased. Since it is your hard earned money, you are entitled to use or not use the guns you purchase. It is that simple to me.
