What's on your "Do not sell until I'm dead" list?

Not sure how not being transfixed with a certain gun or having overwrought emotional attachments to a firearm makes one a "Liberal politician."

If I'm not using a gun, don't have a use for it or find one that does a specific job better then out it goes. I don't get all misty-eyed over them.

Once the liberals manage to ban hunting they can claim that there is no reason to own a gun...because its just a "hunting tool"...and since it's no longer needed...confiscation time. That's what I meant.

Browning a-bolt micro 2 in 22 hornet, LEFT HAND. It's about the rarest of rare lefties on the market and took me years to find it. I don't shoot it much, but I finally have one and it'll never go anywhere.
 
I thought I would never sell my .308s. PGW Coyote, Sig SSG 3000 or my H-S Precision HTR 2000.
No sentiment, they just shoot so well.

But, I have an Insite Arms build coming in December, so I'll have to sell one of them because:
A) I need the room in the safe and
B) It's too many rifles of the same caliber.
So, never say never, I guess.

Ah, I guess I'll never sell my beat-to-hell Model 7 deer rifle from the 1980s.
5 lbs., 4 oz. weight, 18 ½ “ barrel, stock is Kevlar reinforced fiberglass.
That one's sentimental.
 
I have a hard time selling rifles that I have bloodied. I recently bought a 7mm t3 stainless to replace a blued one that I have. I thought long and hard about it and decided to resell the stainless since I've killed a bull moose and my biggest whitetail with the blued one. Plus it just shoots so well I don't want to gamble with the new one.

I also would never sell my first hunting rifle that my dad bought me when I was 11. It's a lh savage 110 308 that I've done a lot of killing. I retired it 2 years ago after using it exclusively for 20 years. I may still grab it on occasion if I have a tag that really needs filling.

I also have a muzzleloader that I've killed 4 different species with 4 shots. I think I'll keep using it for different species. I don't particularly love it but it seems to work ok and I can't see myself selling it.
 
My grandfather gave my dad a built in 1958 Husqvarna originally chambered in 270 Win but he had had it rechambered to 270 Wby.

I shot my first several deer and moose with this rifle then out of the blue my grandfather asked for the rifle back and gave us several others Ruger M77's 30-06 and 300 Win mag and Voere Black Forests 243 and 308 Norma Mag.

Then one day I received a call to come visit my grandfather this was appr 1 year before he died when I got there he gave me back the Husqvarna.

I have now redressed the entire rifle new McMillan stock, Cerakoted the barreled action satin black and stock OD green I found off the EE 2 super rare mag conversion mags, I also installed new Leupold scope bases - rings and a Leupold VX2 4-12x40mm LR reticle scope.

I'll never sell this rifle it will be handed down to my son's.

The only other rifles I will never sell are my T/C Contender carbines specifically my stainless 21" factory tapered barrel combo in 375JDJ favourite load is 260gr Accubonds at 2300fps.
 
My Norwegian K98.

Took my 15 year-old son and his friend to the range yesterday. Shot 60 rounds of Prvi 150 grain FMJs. My son's friend shot a 1-inch 3-round group at 25m--his first time firing a rifle!! Needless to say it was a memorable experience for all. Love the rifle, but the memories attached to the rifle now make it all the more a keeper.

He proudly took his target home to show his dad.
 
There's no way that I would part with my Marlin 444s it is a stellar rifle with Williams FP sites play. A lifetime keeper for sure
 
1911 engraved to keep as family piece. The rest of the stuff i would sell if i needed to. Theres always a abundance of glocks and beretta's....lol
