"All of my guns are collectible because I am a collector." (See Post #17.) I couldn't have said it better myself.

Now let's talk about real world collectibles in terms of dollars and sense-------and it won't take very long at all.

True collectibles, be they firearms, chess sets, or automobiles appreciate in value.

Other stuff people collect does not.

I'm sure there are some S&W Model Number Guns somewhere which will appreciate in value sometime, for some reason. I will opine this is not one of them---or if it is, it will be a loooooooooooooooooong time coming.
