guns you'll never part with

[bwh]

I think there's only one firearm in my collection I would never part with - a Springfield-produced '03. The receiver has a 1922 production date and it sports a WWII replacement High Standard barrel. It's in exquisite condition.

Given the current political situation I have a policy of not getting rid of private purchase firearms. Those would be the very last to go.

My Springfield 1911 built for me by Master Gunmith Ed Banks, about 18 months before he lost his second battle with cancer. I have less than $800 in the gun, and it shoots as good or better than my Wilson Combat CQB.

My dad's guns that he has given me over the years. They are all special in one way or another.

they won't come to take your guns as much as lower the supply of ammo for the public, so it's the ammo you have to worry about

My C3 Defense carbine (Wife gave to me for Christmas) Mossberg 500A given to me by my Dad. Last but not least is the Glenfield model 60 that my late cousin who was more like a brother to me used to own. Those will all pass down to my Son one day.

I built a CVA Kentucky rifle in 1978. Still have it. Still pushes round balls into 1" hole at 100 yards. I have not hunted (big game) with a modern rifle, ever.

1. 1st gun - Ithaca M-66 in 20 ga
2. dad's .22 - Sears & Roebuck single shot, mom paid $15.00 for it and ordered thru the mail
3. Colt Python Elite Stainless NIB (cyl never turned) - my wife got me for Christmas
4. Colt Diamondback, blue 6" in .22 lr - wife's present on my retirement from the state
5. Colt Diamondback, nickel 4" , .38 spl - bought it from a friend's son when he died
6. Ithaca M-49, single shot, lever .22 lr - my dream gun when I was a kid, Dad would never let me have one as they were $49.00 and you could buy a good bolt gun for $20.00 (I also have one in magnum)
7. Eastern Arms, single shot 12 ga - Uncle Raymond bought it for $5.00 in 1936, worked a week loading log slabs on rail cars.
8. Winchester M-12, 12 ga - Uncle Carl bought it in 1945 at Arvin's in Macon. One of the first guns he saw on the shelf after the war ended. Rode the bus home to WR with it wrapped in a sack. No one called the law?????
9. Remington 660 in 350 Rem Mag - My best friend gave it to me as a gift. A gun to treasure always.
10. Browning Hi-Power mfg 1957 - 1st year production with Browning name on the gun and year of my birth

There are many, many more that I will rob zippy marts before I would sell but that starts my list of what my wife can sell when I die. I will not sell, use them to defend or provide.

Guns I will never sell:

1. My grandfather's Winchester Model 12. It dates to about 1920. The story goes that my grandfather traded an overcoat for it. It's the first gun I remember carrying into the woods.

2. My wife's grandfather's S&W 15-2. It was the weapon he chose to keep beside his bed for protecting his family. He was a WWII vet who lost an eye on the first day of the Battle of the Bulge.

3. My AR SBR lower. I only want/need one, so no sense in getting rid of it.

Only these.... Well we put them on loan to a museum but would never sell them
