I can relate. 6 years ago I wound up selling off a number of them after I had my brain surgeries to make ends meet !! I always get a kick out of the guys that say they'll never sell a gun. They have obviously never fallen on hard times !!I used to have 26 guns but i sold a bunch to pay for stuff over the years.
Now i think I have 13
I would prefer to sell stuff than BEG $$ to pay my bills !!!I never sold a firearm. I was eating pbjs for 3 months. Was begging money to pay the rent. Was trying to find a job that would pay more than 8 bucks an hour. Had Pneumonia for 15 weeks, was in the hospital twice. I never sold any.
I have more Mosin Nagants than that! And that's only PART of my collection.I used to have 26 guns but i sold a bunch to pay for stuff over the years.
Now i think I have 13
I know the experience. I had a friend who borrowed 5 dollars from me. Yet, he rather ended our friendship, because he didn't want to pay back the $5. I guess his friendship did worth less than 5 bucks.I should have said begging people to repay the money I lent them so I could pay my rent. But for the most part that didn't happen.
