Decisions Decisions!

#1 Post by murphwiz »

Now I have a small dilemma, sent of firearms variation, but I have too many shotguns, 6 in all, but I only regularly use 1 of them, mad or what?
Should I lighten my shotgun store and put money into firearms I'll hopefully get my variation for....
Or is it a case that you can never have to many shotguns?

It's depend on what the other 5 are.

IF they are one-off bespoke London gun trade matched pairs I'd not only be loath to use them I'd not want to part with them

IF on the other hand they are top quality Russian tractor parts, lovingly re-formed with a big hammer into the best that 1960's Soviet technology could produce - then I'd be tempted to either sell them on or not mention too loudly in mixed company that you owned such treasures.

More seriously though - if you can sell some of the other 5 without regrets to fund the S1 items then you are onto a winner. The deciding factor to do so, if in your shoes, would be "how easily can I buy back similar guns IF I do decide to sell them?"

twenty five quid and I am in most of the time when you are ready to drop them off. Don't worry too much about cash as I accept cheques :goodjob:

Seriously, yes you can have to many shotguns unless they are all significantly different so I would look to get rid of at least 2-3 which leaves more cabinet space for an S1 of some form.

thanks ever so for the offers to take them of my hands, much appreciated...

I might try my luck in the classifieds first though... :good:
Reckon a cull of 3 for now, as I can say I've not used 3 of them for at least 18months!
Best get some piccys and ads on the go.
