I'm sort of new here, but I feel that a collector looks at whatever he is collecting as a piece of art, or of history. That is what brings him joy or satisfaction. Whereas, an "accumulator" looks at his items as tools, and the exercising of the function of the item is his joy or satisfaction. Again, this is from a new guy on the block. A fifty-six year old new guy with a few guns, but new at this anyway. By the way, I sure do enjoy the photos that you guys post. Beautiful guns and excellent photography!
