Here is how I personally validate my "addiction" (ahem) adoration for quality firearms. Short of gold, the most useful and value holding property for sale today is quality firearm. They do not go "out of style," I do not have to feed them, and they are relatively compact. Depending on your age and if or when you want to retire, if you bought quality, the value of those arms will rise right along with inflation. Now, get out there and work on that retirement plan!!
