If you don't have any descendants...I'm available to be written into a will. Jus' sayin'.S&W 25-2 5.5" bbl 45ACP revolver. Bought it at Lew Hortons retail shop (RIP) for $350 .... too good a deal to pass up. 100% except for barrel turn ring.
Selling what seems "expendable" is a mistake. Hmm, I'm out of work so I'm going to sell my Colt New Frontier .22LR / Ruger Deerstalker/ Browning A-Bolt Varmint w/BOSS / Marlin Camp Carbine 9mm because they were cheap and common. Got $125 / $125 (dealer had a rack full of them) / $350 with a Sheperd scope on it / and $150 (?). Try finding any of them for that price now.I've got a bunch of stuff that pretty much sits in the safe and I never have time to shoot them. I've been selling off some of the more "expendable" stuff.
If I had to pick one that I'll likely never sell - it's probably going to be the Johnson rifle.
No safe queens here, but a few that haven't seen daylight in many blue moons.
I do have some that are unfired, but those are the ones I've bought and built recently that I haven't had the time to shoot yet.
Have yet to shoot her after all the work got done, keep meaning to hit the range but time just isn't there.
Also have a early 70's 6" RB Python that would rate about 95%, shot it twice in the last 6 years.
Sad that so many people don't have enough time to shoot what they have. Seems like everyone is working so much they can afford all of the good things, but what's the point if you never get to enjoy them?
