Too Nice To Shoot?

[Leveraction44]

Do you have any guns that are so nice it makes them hard to shoot? I mean the wear and tear and god forbid a scratch or ding. On the other hand, I have some Glocks that I use like a crow bar.

Model 617, 22LR

I have had several over the years that I just couldn't bring myself to shoot. Now days if I can't work it like a borrowed mule I sell it.

I've seen some I wanted bad,but,realized they were way to pretty for me to shoot....so I just walked away. ..btw....that's a really purtty gun sir

Nice 617!

If you don't want to shoot it, pass it on, is generally my feeling. Of course there's 1 gun I have I wouldn't shoot for fear of breaking a numbers matching part, so there's always exceptions !

not a 22, you can shoot them forever.

Shoot it once in a while, keep it clean, enjoy it.

I feel if you planning on selling not to shoot,if you gonna keep it,let it naw.

When it comes to guns, nothing in life is more important than enjoying them.
What brings you more joy.....shooting it or admiring it?
For me the only reason I wouldn't shoot it is money.....money is not more important than the joy of shooting a fine revolver.
So I would shoot it!
If you derive more enjoyment from keeping it in pristine condition...then don't shoot it.
Do what makes you happy...an easy thing to figure out.
