I went through the safe yesterday and cleaned guns. Inspect all of them, clean all of them as needed. I have three guns I don't think I fired in the last 15 years, probably several more than that. Every time I do this I think I'll take them out, but I never do.
One is a S+W M15. That gun has only ever fired 148 grain BB wadcutters and 4 grains of WW231 since I've owned it. It is in excellent condition and had never seen a holster.
The second is a High Standard Victor, 1972 vintage. It is in pristine condition and in the original box.
The third is a Clarke Heavy slide 1911. Since I've owned it it has only seen 185 grain semi-wadcutters and 5.4 grains of WW231 and 230 grain bullets with 5.1 grains of the same load. I have two springs with the lighter on painted green because it is reduced power. The heavy slide will not feed the 185's with a stock spring.
I bought all of these when I was shooting Bullseye from other bullseye shooters. Those guys baby their guns and these show it.
Maybe I'll shoot them again this year, or the next, or next...
Several times I considered selling them, just can't even though all three would bring a pretty penny.
