How many of you have non functioning handguns in your "collection"? I'm trying to collect representative examples of as many of the Safety Hammerless models as I can. And I find that I've currently got two that need internal parts and work to get them to a "shootable" state. I'm not sure I want to spend the money to repair them at this time. And since I can still admire and handle them without firing them, I hang on to them until I can "upgrade". They do "fill out" some gaps in a meager collection. So what do you think? Would you, for instance, buy a non functioning revolver in order to add a type/model to your collection that you "need"? I'm thinking that there are probably quite a few examples of certain types in museums displayed, but "broken", in order to fill out a "series". And I'm sure there are those who feel a non functioning firearm is rather "worthless". Maybe this would be better in some kind of a "poll".
