Some guys don't save that stuff. Example my father in law has a gun collection of probably 70+ guns, its unreal. Some stuff is nothing special but he has about 20 guns that are really nice collectors IMO. He purchased some of them new over his 70 year life and some used, not ONE box or set of papers for any gun he has. NONE....he buys them, puts them in the safe and everything else goes. I have said save the stuff, he says hell no! LOL....

No freeman shall be debarred the use of arms.
Thomas Jefferson
“Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” Thomas Jefferson
