| Investment grade rifles, or modern day super performance that in capable, experienced hands will provide extended down range performance? The latter would be synthetic stocked precision rifles, that while may still hold some value decades from now, will never be collectible status. Go to gun broker,and you’ll quickly see what commands a premium if you truly want to hand down an heirloom to be proud of. Personally, I’ve purchased a few new in the box, unfired relics from the past that I paid a good premium to acquire. Prime example, a never fired, flawless Winchester 94 BigBore in .375 Win. that I use, hunt with, and enjoy. My guns will be going to my grandsons when I’m no longer here, grandsons whom I hunt with. I hope through actually using these rifles in a group deer hunt, one where carrying through the woods may put a few scratches and dents, and hopefully will remind them someday of a time many years ago when Grandpa handled and hunted with the rifle that’s now theirs. And the character flaws from grandpas use actually mean something to them, rather than a perfect gun that never left the cabinet. I don’t care how expensive they are, I’m gonna use them while I can.
