More that that. The one of mine you see literally is "family." The connection to my Dad is especially important to me.
Over the years, that gun has fired thousands of rounds and has gone with me many places - probably some it shouldn't have. It has been through one complete rebuild (at S&W), has a replacement barrel, has been factory refinished, and has completely worn out two sets target stocks. Worthless to a collector, but it is priceless to me.
